A Study on Relegated Officials in the Song Dynasty — the exile culture of Hainan / 宋代謫宦之研究─以海南流放文化為中心

碩士 / 淡江大學 / 歷史學系碩士在職專班 / 99 / In traditional Chinese politics, exile is an unique political feature. In the Song Dynasty, the central government established four different troops in Hainan. At that time, the place, Hainan, literally meaning “South of the Sea” is commonly seen in various literary prose and poems. From the perspectives of the Emperor and the capital city, Hainan is a remote enough to be a perfect location for exile. However, for relegated officials, the journey to Hainan is long and dangerous, not to mention the place itself is seriously less developed. In other word, living in Hainan poses a great burden to these officials physically and psychologically.
In the Song Dynasty, there are a great number of relegated officials residing in Hainan. Therefore, after they have overcome all obstacles facing them in the life, they form a special cultural community here. This unique exile culture of Hainan consists of these officials’ knowledge of interacting with the natural and social environment surrounding them. Moreover, the culture is also affected by the local minority tribes.
