Wang Mingke, director of the Institute of History and Linguistics of Academia Sinica in Taiwan and a well-known anthropologist, spent more than ten years in field research and carefully wrote this book. Xu Zhuoyun, Wang Mingming, Yao Dali, etc. Enthusiastically recommended it. It is a classic that spans history and anthropology. Based on the research results and thinking approaches of anthropology on nomadic societies, and combining the research methods of history, philology, geography and other disciplines, Professor Wang Mingke investigated the early nomadic societies in northern China - the Xiongnu, Xiqiang, Xianbei and Wuhuan in the Han Dynasty. It mainly explores the environmental ecology, animal ecology and breeding, economic activities, social organization, relationship between nomadic and settled groups of the three nomadic tribes, and on this basis their interactions with the Han Empire. The seemingly "free" choice of the nomads is a "last resort" survival choice in a living situation.

This book aims to study the migration and cultural adaptation of the Tajik people in the Pamir Plateau due to environmental changes. The author uses cultural anthropology fieldwork methods to obtain detailed ethnography on the ground. On this basis, he focuses on comparing the similarities and differences in the ecological environment, production environment, living environment and community environment of the Tajik people before and after their relocation, and analyzes the cultural adaptability formed after the relocation, in order to trigger more research and discussion on academic issues such as immigrant relocation and cultural adaptation.

This book combines contemporary ethnographic field research methods and perspectives that emphasize both diachrony and synchrony, and both emic and etic aspects. Through a large number of specific and vivid documentary materials and field interview records, this book systematically explains the ethnic identity and social and cultural change experience of three She villages in southeastern China. It also uses extensive and in-depth emic experience to show the daily life status of "She cultural memory and Han cultural reality" in contemporary South China She villages.

Since the new era, "retelling history" has been an important literary phenomenon that has appeared simultaneously in contemporary literature and minority literature, among which "Mongolian historical narrative" is the most typical. "Mongolian historical narrative" is a cross-ethnic historical writing, in which both Mongolian and Han writers participate. Due to the similarity in subject matter and content, "Mongolian historical narrative" has formed its own text sequence and literary historical context. From the perspective of multi-ethnic comparative poetics and through the use of interdisciplinary methods, this book conducts an in-depth analysis of the "Mongol Empire Narrative" and highlights the close connection between "historical representation" and "identity."

This book takes the relationship between man and land as the starting point, takes the ethnic formation of the Zhuang people as the main narrative subject, and studies the adaptability of ethnic relations and the relationship between man and land. The author believes that due to the influence and constraints of geographical environmental factors, the Zhuang people have not only experienced complex changes in the spatial pattern of geographical distribution, but also in different time and space scopes, due to changes in the natural and human environment, the Zhuang people have also taken different adaptation measures in the fields of agricultural production, animal husbandry, hunting, and culture. These adaptation measures interact with the environment, forming a very complex interactive relationship between ethnic changes and the relationship between man and land in the history of the Zhuang people, and ultimately promote the progress, unity, and development of the ethnic groups.

This book is an ethnography of the social structure of the Jiarong Tibetan people, based on the field investigation data of Qi Qi Tibetan Township, Baoxing County, Ya'an City, Sichuan Province, China. It uses the study of the name of the house "fangming" as the starting point to discuss the social structure of the Jiarong Tibetan people. The author hopes to use this to show the particularity of Jiarong Tibetan social structure as a society in a different culture.

Through an in-depth description of the phenomenon of the Butai ethnic group rebuilding their traditional way of ethnic communication, this book focuses on exploring the poetic wisdom of ethnic communication demonstrated by this ethnic group in rituals and daily life, aiming to find the possibility of ethnic communication in the context of modernity. The focus of the case observation is to explain the ethnic communication behaviors of three rituals: the bridge ceremony, the Nong'a ceremony and the Gepo activity. In the author's opinion, the extent to which the Butai people can reconstruct the form and content of ethnic communication depends on how they seek their own poetic wisdom in the face of modernity. When divinity and poetry converge to become a driving force for awe-inspiring communication and desire for communication, awe-filled divine blessings and poetic expressions of deep comfort form the basis for the imagination and reconstruction of ethnic communication.

This book is based on the National Ethnic Affairs Commission's "Investigation and Research on the Economic and Social Development of Ethnic Groups with Small Population in China".

Murong Xianbei and the Yan people he founded were important ethnic minorities and political powers during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. They served as a link between the past and the next and had a profound impact on the subsequent history of the Northern Dynasties. The book is divided into five parts. It examines the establishment and development of the Murong nation-state over a long period of time, its integration with Xianbei in the east and other northern tribes, and finally its integration into the Han society in the Central Plains. This book examines issues such as the eastern Xianbei issue, the structure and changes of the Yan regime, and the development and integration of Murong Xianbei's descendants in the Northern Dynasties, Sui and Tang Dynasties, which have been less covered in previous studies. It is of great significance in promoting the study of Murong Xianbei.

The pursuit of survival resources by the northern nomadic people is the main thread running through their activities in the grassland, inland migration, and even in the Central Plains. The close integration and changes of the acquisition and control of survival resources and the power structure of nomadic organizations are the dominant factors that determine the rise and fall of the "Five Hu". After the "Eight Kings Rebellion" in the Western Jin Dynasty, the Hu-Han ethnic group went from fierce competition to the difficult, long-lasting and concrete process of forming common interests in the process of obtaining resources in agricultural society. This was the decisive factor in China's three hundred years of transformation from division to reunification, from chaos to governance, and also the decisive factor in the integration of the Hu-Han ethnic groups.

This book is a classic work about the three thousand years of history of nomadic peoples in Eurasia. How did Temujin, who lost his father at a young age, lead the weak nomads to defeat all the heroes and unify Mongolia? How did he and his successors continue their western expeditions to create the largest land empire in history? In this work, the author uses the rise and development of the nation as a clue to outline the history of the Mongolian army led by Genghis Khan in the vast Eurasian continent. In addition to the history of the Mongolian conquests throughout the book, the book also contains the intertwined human nature of cunning and helplessness, cruelty and coldness, friendship and betrayal, presenting readers with a thrilling and gripping historical picture.

Gulati starts from the origin of the Mongolian people, records the historical materials of the early rise of the Mongolian people, and uses a broad perspective to outline the ecological environment in which the Mongolian people live and their significant influence on the special region of Central Asia and on the history of Central Asia. It is permeated with the vast spirit of hunting and nomadic culture. During the expedition, the Mongol Khan's army ruled different countries and towns and affected people's lives, which brought great impetus to Central Asia and the entire world. After the Mongols conquered the Central Plains and Central Asia, trade routes became safer and more orderly, and cross-regional commercial activities showed a prosperity that was unprecedented and unprecedented.

This book mainly uses the research method of psychological history to explore the national psychology of the upper class of the northern Han people in the Liao, Jin and Yuan Dynasties. The reason why we use the national psychology of the upper class of the northern Han people as a research perspective is that during the period of dynasty change, "the reason why the people's hearts are for Chu and Han, they all rely on it." In particular, some of them are very influential bureaucrats, religious leaders and scholars. Their mentality and choices during critical periods in history often play a huge leading role in society, because in an agricultural society, the collective unconscious mentality of blindly following the trend is very marketable. Moreover, in dynasties established under the leadership of ethnic minorities, those who have substantial contact opportunities with ethnic minority emperors and powerful figures at all levels, that is, these upper-class Han figures who come forward as bureaucrats, religious leaders, and scholars, although their feelings cannot represent the feelings of all Han people, they are still very representative. During the Liao, Jin, and Yuan dynasties, the national psychology of the upper class Han people in the north went through a complex process of change during the nearly five hundred years when ethnic minorities held the core power of the country. During this process, the Liao Kingdom once expanded its power to the Yellow River Basin; the Jin Kingdom pursued the Southern Song Dynasty regime after the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty. During the period of King Hailing, it even attempted to use war to unify China; while the Mongols eventually led a new and larger-scale unification of the country, but after the unification, the time to maintain unity was relatively short. If we analyze the national psychology of the upper class of the northern Han people during this period from the perspective of the formation process of a common social psychology required to unify the country, it will be very beneficial to the overall study of this period of history.

This topic attempts to use historical materials to explain the specific process of mutual influence, mutual restriction, and mutual growth and decline between national laws, local laws, and inherent laws in grassroots societies in specific border ethnic areas during this period. This process is undergoing dynamic changes as the central government strengthens its rule over local grassroots society and the border minority areas develop themselves. This change reflects the interactive relationship between the central government and the grassroots society in border minority areas.

The Manchus (now known as the Manchus) are one of the oldest ethnic groups in the Chinese nation. In the early 16th century, on the basis of Jurchen Jianzhou, some ethnic groups such as Jurchen tribes, Mongols, Koreans, and Nikan (Han people) were absorbed to form a new Manchu national community. The "Eight Banners Genealogy of Manchu Clan" is an "imperial" code of organization, culture, and psychological identity of Manchu tribes. It demonstrates that Manchuria "is the foundation of the country" and provides the basis for "the first worship of Manchuria." The Manchu aristocrats not only adhered to the characteristics of their own nation and implemented "Manchuization" for new members; at the same time, they promoted "Han culture" and continued the unity of Chinese civilization, achieving the dual construction of their tribe. The major adjustment of cultural strategy was the key to the Qing Dynasty's ability to maintain its rule for more than two and a half centuries.

Criticism is choice. Selection itself is a process of criticism, criticism and selection, which affirms, advocates and constructs in the process of sublation. Therefore, its focus is not on destruction or subversion but on finding its value and meaning and facing it head-on to introduce and build upon. Ancient Chinese literary theory stops at the most important points and does not extend in form, leaving enough space for understanding and imagination. This must be the boundary set by the established goal and method of "criticism as selection". It also reflects criticism's respect for its object and its limited reservations. This spirit, in a sense, is closely related to the special laws of literary creation and thinking, including the basic attitude and judgment made by literature based on its in-depth understanding of the uniqueness and non-replicability of the human mind's operating methods. Compared with the binary opposition in traditional philosophy, this basic stance contains sharp confrontations, hierarchical relationships, and basic patterns such as the basic grasp of good\u002Fevil, affirmation\u002Fnegation, and essence\u002Faccidentity of the world, highlighting a conscious escape. This self-conscious spirit in ancient Chinese literary theory contains a strong meaning of modernity. Similar to current deconstructionist criticism.

This book systematically elaborates on the political and economic system of ethnic minorities in the northwest region of the Song Dynasty and the historical documents left behind. It is an academic monograph with strong theoretical basis and rich information.

The northwest has always been a gathering area for ethnic minorities. A large number of northwest ethnic literature materials have detailed records of the political, economic, and cultural achievements, contributions, and influence of ethnic minorities who lived in the northwest in ancient times, such as the Di, Tuyuhun, Tubo, Dangxiang, Khitan, and Uighurs. This book mainly introduces the Jincheng vassal state and the Qiang guardians in the Han Dynasty, the relationship between Tuyuhun and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the examination of the kings of the Yuan Dynasty Nian Bulie, the examination of the non-Wang clan of the Wang family in Gongchang of the Yuan Dynasty, the examination of the post roads in Gansu Province of the Yuan Dynasty, the tea and horse trade in ancient Gansu, etc.

The book is divided into three chapters, which are very unevenly proportioned. The first chapter explains the Asian Plateau before the 13th century, from about 1000 BC to the 12th century AD. The history of more than 2,000 years only occupies 212 pages of the original book. The second chapter is about the Genghis Khan Mongols, commonly known as the history of the Mongol Empire. It occupies 303 pages of the original book, about half of the whole book, but the history it narrates is only three to four hundred years, from the mid-12th century to the end of the 15th century. The third chapter is about history from the early 16th century to 1759, occupying only 85 pages of the original book. Therefore, the history of the Mongol Empire occupies an important position in the whole book. This is not surprising, because the Mongol Empire, which once threatened the two continents of Eurasia, is still regarded as a relatively special object in today's history circles, and its scope is wider than any empire in history.

This set of books is called "Chinese History on the Map" and includes four types: "Territorial and Political Regions", "Ancient Capitals and Cities", "Exchanges and Transportation", and "The Great Migration of Nationalities". As the name suggests, it uses maps as an outline to tell a certain aspect of Chinese history. The method of learning history summarized by former sages emphasizes the need to grasp several W's, one of which is Where. Because any historical fact, whether it is a person, system or event, whether material or spiritual, is related to a certain spatial range, and all occurs or affects a certain point, line, or surface on the surface of the earth. As our former teacher Ji Long (Tan Qixiang) said: "History is like a play, geography is the stage; if you can't find the stage, where can you see the play!" The role of spatial factors in history is so important, it is an important part of understanding and studying history, and it is also an indispensable reason for understanding history...
