Description:Note to the Internet edition 2003: This document contains the text of an article published in two parts in the Canberra journal East Asian History: Number 1, June 1991, 1-36, and Number 2, December 1991, 143-164. Maps and annotations are included, but not characters. I have added some references to works in the field published since 1991, but have not at this stage attempted a comprehensive bibliography. In a letter of 1994, Professor Fang Beichen of Chengdu University provided some comments; I am most grateful to him and have made a number of changes in accordance with his advice.Note to the original article 1991: This work has been prepared as a chapter for the second volume of The Cambridge History of China. I present it here in preliminary form because I believe there is room for a general survey of the third century, which saw the transition from a long-unified empire to a comparable period of disunity and conflict, and because I know that I shall benefit from the comments and criticisms of others. I emphasise that the piece is designed as a discussion of events: I refer occasionally to matters of literature and philosophy, but there are others expert in those fields, and I have sought only to provide a historical background for their analysis.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
