the cambridge history of inner asia THE CHINGGISID AGE

This volume centres on the history and legacy of the Mongol World Empire founded by Chinggis and his sons, including its impact upon the modern world. An international team of scholars examines the political and cultural history of the , its Chinggisid successor states, and the non-Chinggisid dynasties that came to dominate Inner Asia in its wake. Geographically, it focuses on the continental region from East Asia to Eastern Europe. Beginning in the twelfth century, the volume moves through to the establishment of Chinese and Russian political hegemony in Inner Asia from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries. Contributors use recent research and new approaches that have revitalized Inner Asian studies to highlight the world-historical importance of the regimes and states formed during and after the Mongol conquest. Their conclusions testify to the importance of a region whose modern fate has been overshadowed by and China.

Note on transliteration

Arabic and Persian terms, including names and titles, have been transliterated accord- ing to the system used in the International Journal of Middle Eastern Studies. Russian has been transliterated according to the Library of Congress system. For Chinese, the pinyin transliteration system has been adopted. Turkic names and terms have been transliter- ated according to the system used in the Encyclopaedia of Islam with the usual exceptions (e.g. cˇ is rendered as ch). Terms of Mongolian origin have been transliterated normally in accordance with Nicholas Poppe’s Grammar of Written Mongolian except for cˇ, γ, jˇ, š which are rendered respectively as ch, gh, j, sh. The letter q has been rendered as kh in terms and names around and after 1600 for consistency with more common forms of transliteration. Many Mongol names also appear in Turkicized form, in particular when a people or politi- cal unit has adopted a name of Mongol origin (e.g. Turk. Chaghatay for Mong. Chaghadai and hence Chaghatayid for Chaghadaid, Turk. Noghay, the name of a Turko-Mongolian people, from Mong. Noghai). Both forms will be indicated in the Index. Certain forms (e.g. Qara Khitai rather than Qara Qitai) which do not conform to this schema have become generally used in the scholarly literature and are employed here. For Manchu the system of Jerry Norman’s Manchu–English Lexicon has been followed. Common renderings of place names, personal names and titles have been left in their usual English form.
