Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Yang Wan (d. August 27, 777), courtesy name Gongquan, was an official of the Chinese dynasty Tang Dynasty, serving briefly as chancellor during the reign of Emperor Daizong. He was known for his frugality, and it was said that his becoming chancellor caused a number of other officials to change their wasteful ways. It is not known when Yang Wan was born, but it is known that his family was from Hua Prefecture. His family traced its ancestry to the Han Dynasty official Yang Zhen and a line that included a number of officials of Northern Wei. His granduncle Yang Zaisi served as a chancellor during the reign of Wu Zetian, and his grandfather Yang Wenyu was a prominent official at the time, receiving the title of Duke of Hucheng. His father Yang Kan served as a county magistrate during the Kaiyuan era (713 741) of Wu Zetian''s grandson Emperor Xuanzong, and both Yang Wenyu and Yang Kan were known for their knowledge of Confucianism.
