- This is the story of China’s enduring search for order through the mastery of time.
Matteo Ricci, a young Jesuit would be the first European to enter China at the end of the 16th century. Trained in geometry and algebra, he would soon discover that cosmology and the art of measuring time was at the very centre of Chinese civilization and imperial authority, the Emperor’s Mandate of Heaven.
Over a century, three Jesuits would fight for power in the Forbidden City. Through dramatic historical recreations and unparalleled access to the world’s time labs, The Empire of Time brings to life the story of how China’s enduring pursuit of perfect time brought East and West together.
Modern astronomers, science historians, and time scientists draw on fascinating parallels between past and present, from 16th century astronomical contests to modern time-keeping labs and the satellite-driven race for time-data superiority. An epic tale of science, imperial history and intrigue.

One of my favorite artist is the Jesuit missionary, Giuseppe Castiglione otherwise called Lang Shih-Ning. He was the court painter for 3 of the Ming emperors.
The Jesuit missionaries at the time Castiglione came to China, about a century after Rocco were more or less servants of the reigning emperor. Their technology skills were used to support him, but they weren’t allowed to convert any Chinese. To convert to Christianity was death with the loophole that those already converted could maintain their own religion, but didn’t have churches.
China is a country full of historical things. Timeline always give us brilliant docs. Love from a huge fan of u from ❤️🇱🇰
this would be the perfect channel ever if it actually had sound we could here. love the documentaries, when i turn the volume to max that is.
China makes lots of very good historical mini-series which are available with English subtitles. Other Asian countries like Korea and Japan also make excellent historical series. They all have deep history to draw from.
such as?
@@tomtaylor5623 Why don't you take the time to find out for yourself?
@@danusdragonfly6640 that's a weird confrontational reply. obviously it's easier to ask him for recommendations.
@@tomtaylor5623 It's weird that you keep giving yourself a thumbs-up on your comments. Clearly I was correct since in the hours that have passed since your question you could have looked it up yourself and had an answer. Yet here you are again - still without any answers. If you found my post confronting, it must be because you don't like when people suggest you quit being lazy. Educate yourself.
that's true, Asian countries have rich histories that provide great inspiration for historical mini-series. It's wonderful that many of them are available with English subtitles for a wider audience to enjoy.

Since 2012, the Forbidden City has seen an average of 14 million visitors annually, and received more than 19 million visitors in 2019.
In Frank Herbert's DUNE the BENE GESSERIT sisterhood was based off of the Jesuit Priest evangelizing into other regions. Missionara Protectiva here is the use of math & science.
This is the best history channel on utube ❤
thank you beautiful reconstruction
The original title for this video was something along the lines of "The First European Allowed in the Forbidden City" or something, which was a lot more interesting. I don't know why this was changed.
Nice
This kinda bites… just sayin. Can the channel upload the 3 part series _Stories from the Stone Age?_ I can’t find it anywhere
my guess is marco polo...
Do they mention Matteo Ricci in this video ? I got a half hour in and hadn't heard his name, so I gave up.
🤣🤣🤣
Sava Vladisavljić?
Very interesting
I thought that was Rufus Sewell for half a second 😂

It was thrilled watching 👀 video 🎶 about a Juzuine scientific adventure in forbidden 🚫 city ( emperors city )of China 🇨🇳 ...his traveling for converting China to a Christianity...what is surprising me during history periodicals emperors and kings were exchanged watches ⌚️ in several different designed...as super importance of times ⏲️ in human lives as personality and nations destinations... instead of that they teaches theirs populations..religions stricture, racism ,other beastly ,ridiculous slogans ...thank you (time line )channel and [History Hit] page for sharing this remarkable video
Queria muito ver, todavia não falo inglês
Wow.
Our science is repeatable… our history is merely repeated.
So he was the one that brought annoyance to China.
Always wondered why it was called the Forbidden City. It's where the emperor lived, of course it's forbidden. Might as well call Buckingham Palace the Forbidden Buckingham Palace 😂
because the actual Chinese name 紫禁城 literally translates to *"Purple Forbidden City-fortress"*
紫 refers to Polaris (the North Star), and in Chinese astrology the area around Polaris (including both Dippers, Camelopardalis, Scorpio, & Boöted) was considered the heavenly realm of the Jade Emperor. Hence, the Forbidden City is considered the earthly realm of the Jade Emperor, in this case the Son of Heaven (天子, ergo the Emperor of China)
