Tang dynasty
or T'ang dynasty
(618–907) Chinese dynasty that succeeded the short-lived Sui and became a golden age for poetry, sculpture, and Buddhism.
The Tang capital of Chang'an became a great international metropolis,with traders and embassies from Central Asia, Arabia, Persia, Korea, andJapan passing through. A Nestorian Christian community also existedthere, while mosques were established in Guangzhou (Canton). The economyflourished in the 8th–9th centuries, with a network of rural markettowns growing up to join the metropolitan markets of Chang'an andLuoyang. Buddhism enjoyed great favour, and there were new translationsof the Buddhist scriptures and growth of indigenous sects, includingChan (see Zen). Poetry was the greatest glory of the period; nearly50,000 works by 2,000 poets survive. Foreign music and dance becamepopular, and ancient orchestras were revived. The Tang government nevercompletely controlled the northern Chinese border, where nomad tribesmade constant incursions; periodic rebellions from the mid-8th centuryonward also weakened its power (see An Lushan Rebellion). In its lateryears, the government's focus was on eastern and southeastern Chinarather than Central Asia. See also Taizong; Wu Hou.
