Political Communication in Chinese and European History, 800-1600
Empires and Bureaucracy in World History
How did empires rule different peoples across vast expanses of space and time? And how did small numbers of imperial bureaucrats govern large numbers of subordinated peoples? Empires and Bureaucracy in World History seeks answers to these fundamental problems in imperial studies by exploring the power and limits of bureaucracy. The book is pioneering in bringing together historians of antiquity and the Middle Ages with scholars of post-medieval E…

Women and the Family in Chinese History
This is a collection of essays by one of the leading scholars of Chinese history, Patricia Buckley. In the essays she has selected for this fascinating volume, Professor Ebrey explores features of the Chinese family, gender and kinship systems as practices and ideas intimately connected to history and therefore subject to change over time. The essays cover topics ranging from dowries and the sale of women into forced concubinary, to the excesses …
Culture and Power in the Reconstitution of the Chinese Realm, 200–600
Culture and Power in the Reconstitution of the Chinese Realm, 200–600
The period between the fall of the Han in 220 and the reunification of the Chinese realm in the late sixth century receives short shrift in most accounts of Chinese history. The period is characterized as one of disorder and dislocation, ethnic strife, and bloody court struggles. Its lone achievement, according to many accounts, is the introduction of Buddhism. In the eight essays of Culture and Power in the Reconstitution of the Chinese Realm, 2…

The Dynamics of Elite Domination in Sung China
Thorny Gates of Learning in Sung China
Professor Chaffee offers a stimulating investigation into the social impact of examinations on the Sung. Analysis of the development of the examination system and of the associated government schools reveals attempts by the early emperors to develop meritocratic recruitment, the growth of unprecedented examination competition as the elite increasingly turned to learning, and the appearance of special examinations for the privileged that subverted…

The economic and social history of Later Han
This chapter describes and analyzes major structural changes in the economy and society, such as the reorganization of agricultural production, the emergence of new forms of local organization, and the continuing evolution of the composition of the upper class in Han period. In the Later Han period, commerce and industry were not subject to as much political interference as they had been in the first century BC and during Wang Mang's reign. The e…

Government Education and Examinations in Sung China
Conceptions of the Family in the Sung Dynasty
The values and premises underlying the Chinese family system can be seen as an amalgam of several partially contradictory strains of thought, each with its own history and vocabulary. While ideas tied to the classical tsung model remained at the level of high ideals, seldom even emulated, notions related to the family (chid) and the continuity of the patriline were highly pervasive and would seem to account for much of the uniformity in Chinese f…

The Women in Liu Kezhuang's Family
As any reader will remember well, the Jia family in the Dream of Red Mansions (Honglou meng) was centered around the elderly grandmother. To the youthful Baoyu the family's key members, other than his father, were all females; they included his grandmother, his elder cousin's wife, his elder brother's widow, and his own sisters and cousins-not to mention the senior maids and concubines. The novel informs us of the life histories of most of these …

Concubines in Sung China
This article argues that concubines (ch'ieh) in traditional China should not be thought of as wives, even secondary wives. Using Sung dynasty (960-1279) evidence, the ritual, legal, and social differences between wives and concubines are examined. Wives were acquired through a betrothal process that entailed exchange of gifts and ceremonies; concubines were purchased through a market in female labor much as maids were. A wife's relatives became k…
Patron-Client Relations in the Later Han
During the second Century A.D., much of the social and political activity of upper class men was organized on the basis of private ties between superiors and inferiors. These patron-client ties were created every time a man took on a teacher, accepted an appointment as a political subordinate, or received a recommendation for office by an official. Clients were expected to show loyalty to their patrons, mourning for them if they died and supporti…
Estate and Family Management in the Later Han as Seen in the Monthly Instructions for the Four Classes of People
This chapter examines the Monthly Instructions , paying attention especially to the ways it can supplement other works, such as the standard histories, as a source for Later Han social history. Since the growth of the great families after the Later Han is one of the major social transitions of early Chinese History, it is important to examine the stages and processes of its development. The Monthly Instructions for the Four Classes of People has …
