by Shih-ShanHenryTsai (Author)
Beginning with an hour-by-hour account of one day in Yongle's (Zhu Di, 1360-1424) court, this title presents the multiple dimensions of Yongle's life. It examines the role of birth, education, and tradition in moulding the emperor's personality and values, and paints a portrait of a man characterised by stark contrasts.
