ISBN10: 0295981245, ISBN13: 9780295981246, [publisher: University of Washington Press, Seattle] Softcover Paperback. The first comprehensive portrait of a dynamic Chinese emperor who laid many of the bureaucratic foundations of modern China. 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.
