Summary This book is the first in English to provide a comprehensive overview of the Southern Tang Dynasty (937-976). It shows that the Southern Tang was the key Chinese state of this period, preserving cultural values and artefacts from the former great Tang dynasty (618-907) which were to form the basis of the much better known Song dynasty (960-1279)
