Na Nicolai's rekbare nieuws, wat werd uitgeluid met een weh weh jingle, vertelt Tijl over China's enige keizerin in de geschiedenis. Het was een tentoonstelling in het keramiekmuseum in Leeuwarden die hem inspireerde om in het verhaal van Wu Zetian te duiken. Ruben Nicolai zat op het puntje van zijn stoel tijdens het kijken van de docufilm ‘Sociedad de la Nieve', wat het verhaal over het Uruguayaanse rugbyteam dat moest zien te overleven in het Andesgebergte nadat hun vliegtuig was neergestort. De overlevenden kennen tegenslag na tegenslag en toch weet een enkeling dit behaaglijke avontuur na te vertellen. Ruben van der Meer sluit af met de reggae formatie UB40. Eerder behandelden de heren de documentaire ‘Promises and Lies', maar vandaag duiken ze wat dieper in de geschiedenis van de band uit Birmingham.
Brecht van Hulten praat met conservator Denise Campbell van het Princessehof in Leeuwarden over de tentoonstelling Wu Zetian, de enige vrouwelijke keizer van China. In het bijna 2000-jarige bestaan van het Chinese keizerrijk bezetten vele heersers de troon. Altijd waren het mannen, op één uitzondering na: Wu Zetian (624-705). Over haar fascinerende leven zijn talloze boeken geschreven en films gemaakt, maar toch is er in Europa nog nooit een grote tentoonstelling aan haar leven gewijd. Aan de hand van eeuwenoude schatten van ongekende kwaliteit, volgt deze tentoonstelling het fascinerende levenspad van een jong meisje dat als concubine aantreedt aan het keizerlijke hof en zich met ongeremde ambitie opwerkt tot Wu Zetian, de eerste en enige vrouwelijke keizer van China.
Empress Wu Zetian rose from royal concubine to become the only female ruler in China's 2,000 years of imperial history. Today she is seen as ruthless, tyrannical and willing to murder her own family to hold onto the throne. However this female leader has suffered from a millennium of bad propaganda. Many of the shocking and devious actions she took to claim and hold power overshadow the good she did for her people. Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

(01:15) President Santokhi beloofde maandag dat elke Surinamer een spaarbiljet van 750 dollar - omgerekend ruim 716 euro - zal ontvangen, vanuit het idee dat alle inwoners kunnen profiteren van het zwarte goud.

Ze was de enige vrouwelijke keizer die China ooit heeft gekend. Wu Zetian veranderde van burgermeisje tot de machtigste persoon van China tijdens de zevende eeuw. Hoe lukte haar dat in het confucianistische China met zijn traditionele rolverdeling voor mannen en vrouwen? En hoe feministisch was ze daadwerkelijk? Het Keramiekmuseum Princessehof in Leeuwarden vertelt haar verhaal en schetst een beeld van de samenleving waarin ze leefde in de tentoonstelling Wu Zetian: de enige vrouwelijke keizer van China. Conservator Denise Campbell is te gast.
Today, we'll continue to talk about Wu Zetian. Despite achieving the pinnacle of power, her later years were marked by isolation and introspection, as she grappled with the sacrifices made for her reign.
In this first installment of what will be a two-part feature, we'll talk about Wu Zetian's ascent from a lowly concubine to the only female emperor in Chinese history. Her remarkable ambition and strategic acumen culminated in her establishment of a new dynasty.
Wu Zetian became China's first and only female Emperor on 16th October, 655 - cementing an extraordinary rise from Concubine to Secretary to Consort to Queen. On the day of her coronation in 690, a massive earthquake rocked China, a supposed sign of divine disapproval. But Wu flipped the narrative, declaring that the upheaval was a blessing, a symbol of Buddhist paradise manifesting on earth. Her path to power was unconventional, defying deeply entrenched Confucian ideals that regarded female rulers as unnatural, even catastrophic. It was a rise marked by brutal rivalries, during which she allegedly orchestrated the downfall of enemies, including her rival Empress Wang, and even faced accusations of murdering her own daughter to frame a competitor to the throne. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly weigh up the sexist commentary of the time with the genuine ruthlessness Wu seemed to display; explain how her all-male hareem helped bring about her downfall; and consider how, even as recently as 2014, she remains a controversial, sexualised and divisive figure in China… Further Reading: • ‘The First and Only Woman Emperor of China' (Google Arts & Culture): https://artsandculture.google.com/story/the-first-and-only-woman-emperor-of-china/PQWR-NRltC6QFA?hl=en • 'Empress Wu Zetian: The Only Woman To Rule China' (HistoryExtra, 2023): https://www.historyextra.com/period/medieval/empress-wu-zetian-china-rule-life-reputation/ • ‘Wu Zetian: China's First & Only Female Emperor | Empress Who Ruled The World' (Timeline, 2019): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeZ7esmQcm4 Learn more about your ad choices.

The inculcation of Buddhism from India as the state religion in China was enabled by the violent rise of China's only ever woman Emperor. Raised by pious Buddhist parents, Wu Zetian left a trail of bodies in her wake as she charted a path to absolute power. From a lowly ranked concubine in the imperial harem to the corridors of power, she used Buddhism to legitimise her unprecedented claim to rule. Listen as William and Anita discuss the unstoppable rise of China's only woman Emperor to rule in her own right, and what this meant for Ancient India's empire of ideas.

In its many thousands of years of history, China has had only one official ruling monarch who was a woman. Sure, there were powerful Empress Consorts who pulled the strings of weak Emperor husbands, but Empress Wu Zetian ambitiously, and ruthlessly, upended convention to claim the throne in her own name. Born to a prosperous and well-connected family sometimes in the first half of the 620s, Wu joined the Imperial Court at the age of 14 in the privileged position of concubine to the Emperor. Instead, she became a trusted scribe and advisor who was sent to live out her life in a monastery after his death. But his son, Emperor Gaozong, brought her back to court, where she promptly began having babies with him, something his official wife was never able to do. It took many years, but through devious, even violent means, Wu Zeitan would clear the Court of all rivals to her power and become Gaozong's legal wife, and Empress Consort of China. This was an open door to full control of China; Wu Zeitan only needed to walk through it - and she did. Listen ad-free at patreon.com/trashyroyalspodcast.

In the very long history of China, it has had exactly one female ruler. She was a woman who managed, against all odds, to inch her way closer to power over a period of years until she reached a point where she could claim power for herself. By all accounts, she was beautiful, brilliant, cunning, and absolutely ruthless. Learn more about Wu Zetian, China's only female emperor, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

China first became a country 3500 years ago, but in all that time, only one woman has served as the ruler of China in her own right. In 665 AD, Empress Wu Zetian sneakily ascended to the throne, where she remained in charge until her death 40 years later. But her journey to get there? It's complicated to say the least! Join a VERY enthusiastic Desiree on this week's episode of Kickass Women of Color as she digs deep into the astonishing (and bloody!) life of Wu Zetian.
In this series on Asian beauty philosophy, we cover the beauties of ancient China. Beginning with Shangguan Wan'er, the most prominent female prime minister under the reign of Wu Zetian– also the archetype of beauty and brains. We touch on a lesser-known aspect of her life, that she was once punished with “Mo”, also known as ink torture, one of the 5 tortures associated with imperial China. The empress had intended to scar her for life. But clever Wan'er had other plans. Listen on to hear a story of true ingenuity. One clever beauty who learned how to transform her marred face into one of beauty.

Empress Wu Zetian is the only woman in Chinese history to rule in her own name, but, similarly to Empress Theodora, her story is steeped in rumors, political agendas, and missing documents. There is no way for people today to truly know the truth of her story or the accuracy of her legacy. The legend paints her as a murderous, vindictive, power-hungry vixen. In recent years some historians have called for her to be recognized as a proto-feminist. A woman who “broke the glass ceiling” and rose higher than any female before or after her in Imperial China. Empress Wu was a woman far ahead of her time, but her legacy has been blighted and silenced over the centuries.Featured Guests: Jonathan Clements, a historian, professor, and TV presenter who specializes in the history of East Asia, and Mike Dash, a New York Times bestselling author and historian.

Wu Zetian is known as China's only recorded female Emperor. She founded the Zhao dynasty, smack in the middle of the prestigious Tang dynasty, which was filled with powerful male rulers.Wu was initially a highly educated consort of Emperor Taizong. She went on to become the wife of the next emperor, Gaozong.Her path towards being a consort (or "concubine", as it was termed back then), was curated for her. But her path to being a ruler was cursed with bloodshed, poisonings, corruption, kidnappings, casual executions, summary executions, false accusations of witchcraft, putting in place puppet kings, and of course, drowning people in wine. And this was at a time when Confucian ideology formed the crux was Chinese society, which viewed women as meek, obedient, and best to run a household.Wu said to no all of that.Between 665 AD and 705 AD, Wu ruled China with an iron fist.She killed her enemies one by one, including other wives and consorts of the emperor. She did not trust the aristocracy, because they were hell-bent on kicking her off the throne.Instead, all her policies aimed at appeasing the common folks -- setting up agriculture and trade opportunities, fortifying the borders of the country, and allowing commoners to participate in the civil services.In the past, she was seen as a ruthless ruler who did not care for her people, her political allies, or her family. However, today history treats her as benevolent, smart, engaging, and politically savvy. And of course, a great ruler.ALSO!!
