In Chinese culture, the sword is not merely a weapon — it is the symbol of the gentleman: brave in action, refined in spirit. From the blood-soaked battlefields of the Warring States to the epic unification of China under the Qin, the sword bore witness to the rise and fall of empires — and the wisdom and courage of the generals who wielded it.
Join us in this exciting talk as we journey through the golden age of warfare, from the ruthless brilliance of General Bai Qi, known as the “God of War,” to the strategic genius of Han Xin, the “Immortal of War,” who turned tides with his psychological tactics like 楚歌. Learn about how military reforms, political ambition, and the dream of unification powered armies of hundreds of thousands — and how the sword remained a timeless emblem of leadership and honour.

一场刀光剑影与智慧谋略交织的文化之旅
剑，在中国文化中，不只是冷兵器，更是君子之器，是力量与风骨并存的象征。从战国风云到秦统一六国，再到楚汉争霸的楚歌四起，一把剑贯穿了整个中华战争史的黄金时代。
本期亚洲文化分享会，将带您穿越时空，领略古代兵法的璀璨风采。从“战神”白起如何以铁血手段打下秦国霸业，到“兵仙”韩信如何以“楚歌”巧破敌军心理防线，您将看到一场场扣人心弦的战役背后，是怎样的战略智慧与制度改革，共同缔造了中国早期军事文明的高峰。
此外，我们也将探讨中国剑的发展与象征意义，剖析为何它不仅是战场利器，更是文人武将心中的精神图腾，正所谓“剑胆琴心”，勇与雅的结合。
此次分享会适合所有年龄层参与，欢迎对中国历史、文化、军事、兵器感兴趣的朋友前来聆听！
