[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing three tales found in Susan Whitfield’s “Life Along the Silk Road”. Susan Whitfield’s 1999 text “Life Along the Silk Road” tells ten tales each based on a character between the years AD 750 and AD 1,000 an unstable period of Chinese history. Three of these tales “The Princess’s Tale” (Taihe, 821-842), “The Monk’s Tale” (Chudda, 855-870), and “The Nun’s Tale” (Miaofu, 880-961) specifically tell of the latter end of the Tang Dynasty during a time when Tibetan raiders were constant threats and the popularity of the Buddhist religion was falling out of favor. The tales reveal the inner characters and their lives but perhaps more importantly also reveal their realization about how their lives are involved in and affected by the political and religious climate at the time.
