徽州宗族與明代地方社會的禮教秩序: 以新安程氏為中心. / Lineage and the religious-ritual order in Huizhou in Ming times: a case study of the Cheng's lineage / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collection / Huizhou zong zu yu Ming dai di fang she hui de li jiao zhi xu: yi Xin'an Cheng shi wei zhong xin.January 2006 (has links)
Mid-Ming times witnessed the rise of Neo-Confucianized merchants in Huizhou. The combined effort of Cheng surnamed merchants and the prestigious scholar-official Cheng Minzheng revived the trend of lineage construction in a recognizable pattern. First, the branch Shi Zhong temples were made to be used as ancestral halls of the Chengs. Then, multi-volume genealogies of enlarged kinships were compiled to form conglomerated lineages. The climax of this lineage-building process was the publication of the Conglomerated Lineage of the Chengs of Huizhou (Xin'an Chengshi tongzong shipu) compiled by Cheng Minzheng in 1482. This work created a constructed lineage but also realized a long cherished social ideal of the Confucian scholar. The local merchants were enthusiastic about such lineage-building activities, because the lineage itself facilitated their commercial enterprises and the building of it lessened the social tension brought about by their pursuit of profit. / The founding of the Ming dynasty influenced Huizhou in two ways. First, powerful families rising from Yuan times were weakened during the Hongwu and Yongle reigns. Consequently, Neo-Confucian social practices local elites supported such as lineage construction became inactive. Second, the Ming pursued a state policy of regulating local cults. Of the many local gods in Huizhou, only Wang Hua and Cheng Lingxi became legitimate gods recognized by the state. As a result, the Shi Zhong (everlasting loyalty) Temple worshiping Cheng Lingxi became an official temple in Huizhou. In time, branch Shi Zhong temples appeared in many areas in Huizhou and nearby regions. / The Mongolian conquest of China saw new social mobility in Huizhou. A group of new power holders arose because of the new regime's recruitment policy, which emphasized the appointee's class background and ability to collect taxes. The suspension of civil examinations in early Yuan times drove a large number of Confucian office-aspirants to become teachers in rural schools. These literati, however, helped spread Neo-Confucianism more widely than before. By late Yuan times, the new power holders in Huizhou also absorbed Neo-Confucianism and put it into practice in the construction of lineage halls and in the compilation of genealogies. Neo-Confucianism became socialized. / The study analyzes the various elements that made the Cheng lineage and defines these elements in the historical context of Huizhou from the Southern Song to the mid-Ming. Crucial elements include the rise of Cheng Lingxi, a famous warlord in sixth century. Cheng Lingxi was rewarded an official title by the Southern Song dynasty for which he became an authoritative god in early Ming times. Huizhou prefecture assumed increasing importance in Southern Song times because of its proximity to the capital at Lin'an. It became a communication hub for metropolitan Lin'an and the inland areas. Local government in Huizhou was strengthened and elites there entered the political center through civil examinations. Zhu Xi and his version of Neo-Confucianism were also well received there in late Southern Song times when both became orthodox. / This dissertation studies the construction process of the conglomerate lineage of the Chengs in Huizhou prefecture in mid-Ming China. This organization used the rule of decent-line to unite the families bearing the surname of Cheng and maintained the unity by means of genealogies and ancestral halls. The emergence of the conglomerated Cheng lineage bespeaks the emergence of a Neo-Confucian order jointly built by literati-officials and rising merchants in mid-Ming Huizhou. / 章毅. / 論文(哲學博士)--香港中文大學, 2006. / 參考文獻(p. 232-241). / Adviser: Hung-lam Chu. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 68-02, Section: A, page: 0687. / Electronic reproduction.

無錫縣的華氏家族: 一個長時段的探討. / Hua lineage in Wuxi County: a long period study / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collection / Wuxi Xian de Hua shi jia zu: yi ge chang shi duan de tan tao.January 2011 (has links)
During the Ming and Qing dynasties, many powerful lineages appeared in the Jiangnan area. In this thesis, I take the Hua lineage of Wuxi county as an example, to study the emergence and transformation of these institutions, as well as the change of local society in the period. / In the Hua lineage, the word "lineage" includes two kinds of meanings: one is continued by blood, the other is constructed by special means. The former is implied in the the Hua Zhengu story in early Ming dynasty, which described when the family arrived at the bank of Lake E, reclaimed land, and, in time, became a lineage having many descendants. The latter was performed in ceremonies by many people surnamed Hua who lived in Wuxi county, including Hua Zhengu's descendants, who, through the ceremonies, designated themselves members of a large lineage. The ceremonies were supported by the building of ancestral halls, by compiling genealogies, and recalling stories of their connections to the ancestors. In the middle of the Ming dynasty, people of the Hua surname at Dangkou, where Hua Zhengu had settled, came to be known as a great lineage in Wuxi County. / My focus is not on building a "lineage society" . In the Jiangnan area, lineages were actively built only by a small number of people, while most of their members kept only a loose connection with their lineage. So the lineage exerted little authority on its members. In fact, the importance of the lineage lies in its economic function. Under the process of economic development, by building a charitable estate, lineage became a corporation, which in turn further accelerated the economic development of local society. Through the study of the impact the lineage and the town it settled had on each other, this thesis describes the specificity of the Jiangnan lineage in the Ming and Qing dynasties. / 余艶. / Adviser: David Faure. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 73-04, Section: A, page: . / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2011. / Includes bibliographical references (p. 138-148). / Electronic reproduction.
