Legends of the Founding of Medieval Capitals and Political Culture (han and Tang Studies Series of Renmin University of China)

Wang Jing

135K0

What does a capital city mean in medieval China? How is it intrinsically related to the emperor and imperial power? In traditional political culture and even the cosmic order, how do these two construct inherent necessity? A destiny-destined regime requires a destined capital, whose establishment must be both rooted in tradition and tailor-made for the dynasty's destiny. In short, the location, planning and specific organizational structure of the capital, in addition to combining the actual political needs of the dynasty, also reflected its sanctity and legitimacy through layout and symbols, which were the embodiment of the political culture of the dynasty. Therefore, the rulers of the empire and the planners and implementers of the capital, by "looking up at the astronomy and looking down at the geography", cleverly used prophecies, myths, and even astronomical elements to simultaneously construct the central position of the imperial capital in the world's political order and cosmic system, and eventually became the "residence of the emperor." All of this was accumulated when the medieval imperial capitals were first built, and became the genes for their capital status.

Continuation of Qin and Han History Series

Liao Boyuan

153K0

The thirteen articles collected in this book discuss the history of the Qin and Han Dynasties, which can be roughly divided into two categories: the first discusses the life, character, governance, policies and influence of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty on the politics of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The economy of ancient nomadic peoples could not be self-sufficient, so they had to rely on neighboring farming peoples. The main methods were to invade and plunder their food products, or the monarchs of farming peoples to give rewards to nomadic peoples. The cost of conquering the nomads was too high, so the Han Dynasty "moved the troops into the fortress" and placed the surrendered nomads in the border counties. This cost the least to relieve the famine, and they could also be used as soldiers to "use the barbarians to control the barbarians" to resist the nomads outside the fortress. Emperor Guangwu "moved his army into the fortress" and established his capital in Luoyang, no longer managing the Western Regions. As a result, after the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the number of Han residents in the western and northern counties was too low, and the Han population was divided evenly between Chinese and Yi, which started the situation of the Five Indiscriminate Chaos in the future. The second is to use the new information of "Zhangjiashan Han Bamboo Slips" to discuss the history and official system of Qin and Han Dynasties.

Third, a new interpretation of the ideological themes of works such as "Ai Jiangnan Ode" and "Xiaoyuan Ode" is held. It is believed that these works do not express thoughts about hometown, but are works to seek officialdom and express complaints.

A Study on the Shangshu of the "ministry of War" Before the Tang Dynasty

Zhang Jinlong

100K0

The object of study in this book - the Minister of War of the Sui Dynasty in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, is an important official system under the three provinces and six ministries system. As one of the six departments of the Ministry of War, the Book of War has existed in history for more than 1,500 years. The content studied in this book is the history of the formation, establishment and finalization of the Book of War. The first appearance of the Book of the Ministry of War (the Book of Five Soldiers) was in the Cao Wei Dynasty, but it is difficult to find relevant records in existing historical materials, so the study of this book began in the Western Jin Dynasty. During the Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, although the names "Minister of the Ministry of War" and "Minister of the Ministry of War" could also be seen in some political regimes, they mainly existed under the names of "Minister of the Five Arms" and "Minister of the Seven Arms". After the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, it inherited the "Ministry of War" related systems of the Northern Qi and Northern Zhou Dynasties, established a complete system of ministers of the Ministry of War, and was inherited by the Tang Dynasty. The comprehensive adjustment of the six departments and twenty-four departments of the Ministry of War in the Sui Dynasty established a more mature and complete system of the Ministry of War. Some of the four departments of the Ministry of War inherited from the Five or Seven Ministers of the Army in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and some inherited from other departments. As the highest military administrative agency in ancient China (after the Wei and Jin Dynasties), the Minister of War was responsible for important responsibilities such as military attache election and military service recruitment, weapons manufacturing management, and land and resources control. It was a pivotal department in the bureaucracy.

This set of books is divided into two volumes, Ming and Qing. In the form of biographies, it narrates and organizes the biographical historical materials of 4188 Jinshi in the two dynasties in chronological order. It comprehensively reflects the number, place of birth, family, official history, first-class ranking and important deeds of Jinshi in various subjects in the Ming and Qing dynasties in Shandong. As an important reference book that can search for the Jinshi of the Ming and Qing dynasties and examine the current social situation at that time, its significance and value are self-evident. Previous generations of scholars have also made many attempts and efforts in compiling the biographies of Jinshi, but today we cannot see a complete textual research and summary work, which brings difficulties and regrets to experts in the field of history when they understand the facts and verify the characters. "Don't write biographies for strangers, and then make conclusions after covering coffins." This is the principle established by ancient historians for the compilation of history and chronicles. As Mr. Luo Yansheng said in the preface, "Biographies of virtuous people are often given names such as elders, sages, scholars, rural officials, etc. Those who have entered officialdom but have no high-level officials, whose history is not outstanding, their art is not obvious, and their works are not found in later generations, are not recorded in the official history and are often mixed into the 'personality gate'."
