宋王朝.
傳聞在文革時期宋徽宗.被批判他是黑五類份子之首席(地,富,反,壞,右)他終身吃喝玩樂,不理朝政,
最後禍國殃民,斷送北宋王朝,客死他鄉.宋徽宗是個生性風流,熱衷玩樂的人,他不理朝政,而讓奸臣宰相蔡京與宦官童貫來把持,自己卻打扮成平民徜徉於花街柳巷,私會妓女李師師的風流韻事,廣在民間流傳,並且改拍電影及電視劇諷刺他否定他的一生,換句話說唯有他的書法,繪畫實為精緻藝術品,後人摹仿卻無法效真,在骨董文物市場拍賣的價碼,卻屢創新高.

作家以現代史家之眼,還原宋徽宗的真實生命歷程拋開中國傳統史學符號化的道德指責，伊沛霞教授以「瞭解之同情」的現代學術立場與現代政治觀點,從宋徽宗自己的視角出發,再現了北宋末期的歷史與時代風貌。.

在本書中作者伊沛霞試圖從徽宗的視角來理解他的世界,力圖矯正大眾對徽宗「腐化,昏庸」的偏見。他重塑了宋徽宗的形象,將其放回歷史語境中,還原一個繁榮國度的君主不斷追求卓越榮耀的雄心儘管這份雄心以悲劇收場。
.A book for those interested in the Song Dynasty, the fall of the Northern Song, and the emperor who reigned from 1100-1126, Huizong. Meticulous in detail--albeit not always as captivating or entertaining as one had hoped for--and a much-needed work on both Huizong and the Song in part because this was a game-changing period in Chinese history and in part because of the many stories that are known about Huizong. Historians have been more fascinated with the more marshal personalities of Chinas history--the First Emperor Qin Shihuangdi, Genghis and Khubilai Khan, Kangxi and Qianlong--than its more pacifist emperors. Yet we do know quite a bit about Huizong--his expertise in the arts, his great collections, the building of one of the most famous gardens in history, his fascination with (and belief in?) Daoism, and his final years in exile as a hostage of the northern Jin. Now we know even more, a lot more, thanks to the 600+ pages of this volume.
Emperor Huizong is a dense book and slow-going. I pondered at several points giving in to the temptation to skim ahead, but dutifully read every page. There are pages and pages of facts surrounding the mans life but only rarely does one get a glimpse into what he may have been like. For example, he had a lot of children-- did he really enjoy the pleasures of his many wives and consorts and palace women or did he feel it was his duty to produce as many descendants as possible, or did he just feel sorry for all those lonely women waiting for their one opportunity to rise in status by fathering an imperial child? Did he raise his inked brush with a heavy or light heart? Did he really collect and collect passionately, or just accumulate? Chinese history never records such personal details, only the meetings, the communications, the transactions, the petitions...yet such (impossible) insights are the very details that would have given breath to the sturdy bones of this solid work.
