Book synopsis

A young aristocrat, the son of a civil servant-scholar, and the poor son of a family with no social status —these are the three symbolic characters whose story Ivan Kameranovic relates. Despite the knowledge they share, they obviously have very different views of the society in which they live, and the future they envisage. Under the long reign of Emperor Xuanzong (712-756), the standardization of the exam system, carried out so that the government could recruit a much broaderbased elite, led to an unprecedented degree of social intermixing. It also allowed the Chinese educational system to rely on a common pool of talent despite social, geographic and religious differences, and assured the unparalleled influence of China’s Tang Dynasty (618-907). By following these three itineraries, readers will learn about the various facets of a society in its golden age and enjoy the author’s compassionate story about the daily life of these three young men.
