  • China During the Tang-Song Interregnum, 878–978
    China during the Tang-Song Interregnum, 878–978 This book challenges the long-established structure of Chinese history around dynasties, adopting a more “organic” approach which emphasises cultural and economic trends that transcend arbitrary dynastic boundaries. It argues that with the collapse of the Tang court and northern control over the holistic empire in the last decades of the ninth century, the now-autonomous kingdoms that filled the political vacuum in the south responded with a burst of innovative energy that helped set the stage for the economic and cultural transformations of the following Song dynasty. Moreover, it argues that these transformations and this economic and cultural innovation deeply affected the subsequent model of holistic empire which continues right up to the present and that therefore the interregnum century of division left a critically important legacy. Hugh R. Clark is Professor Emeritus of History and East Asian Studies at Ursinus College, Pennsylvania Asian States and Empires Edited by Peter Lorge, Vanderbilt University For a full list of available titles please visit: https://www.routledge.com/Asian- States-and-Empires/book-series/SE900. The importance of Asia will continue to grow in the twenty-first century, but remarkably little is available in English on the history of the polities that constitute this critical area. Most current work on Asia is hindered by the extremely limited state of knowledge of the Asian past in general, and the history of Asian states and empires in particular. Asian States and Empires is a book series that will provide detailed accounts of the history of states and empires across Asia from earliest times until the present.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • Die Fünf Dynastien Und Zehn Staaten in Chinas 10. Jahrhundert
    In Sven Sellmer and Horst Brinkhaus (eds.), Zeitenwenden: Historische Brüche in asiatischen und afrikanischen Gesellschaften (Hamburg: E.B. Verlag, 2002), 273-290. Problematische Zeiten: Die Fünf Dynastien und Zehn Staaten in Chinas 10. Jahrhundert Johannes L. Kurz Zeitenwenden sind in der kaiserlichen chinesischen Geschichte im wörtlichen Sinne zu verstehen, da jede neue Dynastie den Kalender neuordnete und somit die Zeit. Daneben gab es eine ganze Reihe von weiteren Maßnahmen, die die neue Herrschaft als die einzig richtige und in der legitimen Abfolge der Dynastien stehende beweisen sollte. Dazu gehörte die Bezeichnung für die Dynastie, eine Regierungsdevise, die als Motto für die neue Dynastie galt, und, besonders seit der Tang-Zeit, das Abhalten von Prüfun- gen als wichtiges Auswahlkriterium für zukünftige Beamte. Daneben manifestierte sich eine neue Dynastie durch das Setzen eines neuen Kammertones, das Prägen neuer Mün- zen und die Vereinheit-lichung von Gewichten. Dies alles sollte die Elite wie das Volk gleichermaßen davon überzeugen, daß der neue Herrscher das Mandat des Himmels besaß. Im kaiserlichen China waren legitime Dynastien daran zu erkennen, daß sie zum einen das immer wieder neu zu definierende Territorium des chinesischen Reiches unter ihre Herrschaft brachten, und daß sie sich zum anderen in eine Reihenfolge mit den vor- angegangenen Dynastien bringen ließen. Der Herrscher einer Dynastie belegte seine Herrschaft durch das Mandat des Himmels (tianming 天命), welches er und seine Nach- folger solange behalten durften, wie der Himmel ihnen gewogen war. Ebenso konnte das Mandat des Himmels verloren werden, wenn einzelne Herrscher sich als ungeeignet erwiesen. Dies alles funktionierte allerdings nur solange, wie eine Dynastie auf die nächste folgte, was in China nicht zwangsläufig der Fall war.

The previous researches concentrated on how the socio-economic and socio- psychological changes had caused the rapid growth of the popular religious cults since the Song dynasty period, and they presumed that the rapid increase of the state and literati involvement with the local cults just reflected the increasing significance of the popular religions. However, I argue that the previous presumption was only partially right. My research intends to demonstrate that the transformation in the state and literati response to the popular religious cults was iii attributed not only to the change of the popular religions but also to that of the socio-political environment around them. In Chapter Two, I argue that during the period between the late Tang and the Five Dynasties period the difference in the local policies between the northern five dynasties and southern regional regimes caused the disparity in their stances on the popular religious beliefs.

  • Feeding the Emperor in Tang Dynasty China
    A LOOK INTO TRADITIONAL CHINESE ADMINISTRATIVE LAW AND BUREAUCRACY: FEEDING THE EMPEROR IN TANG DYNASTY CHINA Norman P. HO† Abstract Research on Tang dynasty (618 -907 A.D.) law—and indeed, premodern Chinese law as a whole—has been focused primarily on penal law, at the expense of other important areas of law, namely administrative law and civil law. The Tang Liu Dian, compiled in 738–739 A.D., during the Tang dynasty, is an important, self- contained administrative law code which lists out in great detail every Tang dynasty government office, as well as various official positions and their functions and obligations. It also traces the historical evolution of each office and position since Chinese antiquity. The TLD is of great historical significance—it is regarded as the earliest fully extant administrative law code from China, and it served as a model comprehensive administrative law code for subsequent dynasties, including the Ming and Qing dynasties. However, little to no scholarship on the TLD exists in any Western language. This Article examines Tang administrative law, as set forth in the TLD, through the specific lens of how the emperor was fed and analyzes Tang administrative regulations on feeding the emperor. The Article explains, describes, and sets forth the specific agencies and officials who were responsible for feeding the emperor, as well as their specific functions and structures as provided by the TLD. Relevant rules in the Tang Code (i.e., the Tang dynasty penal code) are also discussed to provide a complete picture of the regulatory apparatus behind the task of feeding the emperor.

  • Quanzhou (Fujian) During the Tang-Song Interregnum, 879-978 By
    QUANZHOU (FUJIAN) DURING THE TANG-SONG INTERREGNUM, 879-978 BY HUGH R. CLARK Haverford College It is generally recognized that in the Song dynasty Quanzhou emerged as one of the most important prefectures in the Empire 1). This importance was based on the economic strength generated by the flow of foreign trade-that is, South Seas trade-through the port. Long the second most important port of China, by the mid-Southern Song Quanzhou was to become the largest-Marco Polo suggested that it was the greatest port in all the world. A less widely known manifestation of prefectural importance was the large number of men who entered the bureaucracy through the civil service examinations and other routes. Through the Northern Song, Quanzhou produced more jinshi graduates than all but a half dozen or so other prefectures in the Empire. What would also be generally recognized if given as much thought is that in the Tang era this same prefecture was a political and eco- nomic backwater. There was little native wealth and even less education. The port, although beginning to develop, was only one of several along the South and Southeast coasts, and not an es- pecially prominent one at that. The native elite, which was only just beginning to emerge in the ninth century, was unimportant in national politics. Yet despite this striking dichotomy between the two eras, there has been little if any effort to explain the transformation. Because I believe that the explanation lies in an overlooked di- inension to the history of the Min kingdom rag which ostensibly ruled Fujian during the Tang-Song interregnum 2), and because 133 I believe that history is not well-known, it is appropriate to open with an historical review, including a summary of the extant interpretation.
