After the fall of the Han Dynasty nearly four centuries earlier, the vast Chinese state had fragmented; instead of a single dominion under a single emperor, there was only a chaotic, tangled mass of ephemeral and constantly warring states. Now, calling his new dynasty the Sui, Wen~ti set boldly forth to draw all of the Chinese world ~" all under Heaven"~ together again. His success in this grand endeavor, the social and cultural ramifications of the reunification, the disastrous denouement under Wen~ti's son, when the dynasty collapsed bloodily only thirty~seven years after its founding~this is the fascinating story told here, with grace and authority, by one of America's most distinguished Chinese scholars. In The Sui Dynasty Arthur F. Wright has written a classic essay in historical method, simultaneously narrative, biography, and social analysis. Until now there has been no separate history of the Sui Dynasty, apart from the standard (and archaic) dynastic annals. One reason is the difficulty of the sources~highly complex and obscure, colored by political and religious bias, and requiring an extremely high level of scholarship from the historian. Another reason is the fact that the intrinsic importance of the Sui Dynasty ~ seemingly so short and insignificant ~ has hitherto been largely overlooked in the West. In this study, Wright makes plain just how much the Chinese of later ages ~ including even our own ~ owe to the innovators of the sixth century. Governmental, educational, political, and social institutions ~ from the examination system that selected officials to transportation networks to river~conservancy techniques to military tactics ~ all had their roots in the Sui, and all still existed, in modified form, more than a thousand years later. Wright ~ for fifteen years Charles Seymour Professor of History at Yale ~ was completing work on this book when he died in the summer of 1976. Robert Somers, who was one of his students, has contributed a concluding chapter that views the Sui from the perspective of the famous succeeding dynasty, the T'ang. jacket painting: The Sui Emperor Wen~ti with attendants, from th Thirteen Emperors Scroll, attributed to Yen Li~pen of the T'ang Dynasty, seventh century A.D.
