Chapter Nine chapter nine The Realms of Governance and the Methods of Education uang Shang (1044–1130; js. 1082) was the optimus among H the 1,428 candidates who passed the Presented Scholars and the Elucidation of Classics examinations in 1082.1 Hailing from Nanping in northern Fujian, he belonged to the fi rst genera- ti on of scholars who were educated on the New Three Classics adopted in 1075. Throughout Huizong’s reign, he had held some coveted posts at the central government before becoming the minister of ritual. He was undoubtedly a model product of the New Policies era. His literary collection includes a set of six essays under the title “The Meanings of Zhouli” (Zhouli yi), which pre- sumably was a series of lectures he delivered as academician at the Dragon Diagram Hall in the 1110s–1120s when Cai Jing (1047– 1126) held sway as the grand councilor.2 In it Huang Shang de- velops a holistic model of government, according to which all members of human society including the ruler, offi cials, peasants, merchants, artifi cers, and women form an organically integrated, mutually reliant, and functionally cooperating enterprise.3 Envi- sioning a systematically organized stated society, he makes a grand statement in regard to the signifi cance of education: In the ancient world of the former kings, the wise men were in a position to foster the virtues of the people, and there was no other way; the capable assumed the duties of managing the affairs of the people, and there was no other policy. How could this be? The 196 part three minister of education received the methods of teaching from the king; the dukes, ministers, and grand masters received the methods of teaching from the minister of education; district offi cials received the methods of teaching from the dukes and grand masters. The schools of the ten thousand people received the methods of teach- ing from district offi cials. Therefore, the ways in which the people were taught were in aid of the king without the self-interested inter- ference of the feudal lords and other offi cials. The people of the former kings fl ourished under the virtuous in- fl uence of the wise men, and were pacifi ed by the policies managed by the capable; they were cooperative in their emotions and united in their intents. How could this have been? The people were allowed to promote the wise, who in return accommodated the people’s likes and dislikes while fostering them; the people were allowed to promote the capable, who in return balanced the people’s gains and losses in the midst of governing. Therefore, the ways in which the [offi cials] were advanced were entrusted to the people without the self-interested interference of the king.4 In this passage, Huang Shang makes at least three grand state- ments regarding education in general. First, there should be the one unifi ed system of education based on the single chain of com- mand from the king to the minister of education to the intermedi- ate offi cials to the local administrators. Second, by advancing the wise and able, the people should be granted the right to select their own offi cials without “the self-interested interference” of the royal authority. Third, the top-down process of education from the center out should be combined with the bottom-up advance of talents from the local level. To wit, the government should provide the institutional means by which duty-bound offi cials could reach, uplift, and edify the population; at the same time, the people should voluntarily select their leaders, and those who were locally nominated should serve in the various posts of the local government. Local villagers with- out state control should be subject to anarchic disorder; conversely, the social institutions of the local government without popular participation should render the people vulnerable to despotic con-.

  • Charters: What Survives?
    Banner 4-final.qxp_Layout 1 01/11/2016 09:29 Page 1 Charters: what survives? Charters are our main source for twelh- and thirteenth-century Scotland. Most surviving charters were written for monasteries, which had many properties and privileges and gained considerable expertise in preserving their charters. However, many collections were lost when monasteries declined aer the Reformation (1560) and their lands passed to lay lords. Only 27% of Scottish charters from 1100–1250 survive as original single sheets of parchment; even fewer still have their seal attached. e remaining 73% exist only as later copies. Survival of charter collectionS (relating to 1100–1250) GEOGRAPHICAL SPREAD from inStitutionS founded by 1250 Our picture of documents in this period is geographically distorted. Some regions have no institutions with surviving charter collections, even as copies (like Galloway). Others had few if any monasteries, and so lacked large charter collections in the first place (like Caithness). Others are relatively well represented (like Fife). Survives Lost or unknown number of Surviving charterS CHRONOLOGICAL SPREAD (by earliest possible decade of creation) 400 Despite losses, the surviving documents point to a gradual increase Copies Originals in their use in the twelh century. 300 200 100 0 109 0s 110 0s 111 0s 112 0s 113 0s 114 0s 115 0s 116 0s 1170s 118 0s 119 0s 120 0s 121 0s 122 0s 123 0s 124 0s TYPES OF DONOR typeS of donor – Example of Melrose Abbey’s Charters It was common for monasteries to seek charters from those in Lay Lords Kings positions of authority in the kingdom: lay lords, kings and bishops.

  • Regnal Lists in East Slavic Chronicles 04 with Proof Corrections Inserted
    1 Sergei Bogatyrev (University College London) Memory and Politics in the Chronicle Lists of Princes, 12th-15th Centuries Abstract: This paper examines the lists of princes that can be found in the East Slavic chronicles compiled from the twelfth to the fifteenth century, including the Primary Chronicle and the Novgorodian chronicles. For the first time in the historiography, this work studies the corpus of princely lists as distinctive texts with specific cultural functions. The lists of princes were not reference tools but rather charters that validated political arrangements and shaped collective identities. On the basis of textual and formal analysis, the article demonstrates that the chronicle lists of princes legitimised kingship and served as a form of recorded collective memory for members of princely families and their Novgorodian allies. In a group of princely lists from the first half of the fifteenth century, the genealogical concepts of the Riurikid and Danilovichi dynasties appeared for the first time in East Slavic literature. These concepts reflected intensified contacts among literati in the East Slavic republic of letters and political changes caused by the expansionism of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the growth of the principalities of Moscow and Tver’. Key words: Genealogy, memory, dynasty, chronicle writing, lists of princes, Primary Chronicle, Novgorodian chronicles Lists of princes are one of the oldest genres of historical narrative. In East Slavic literature, princely lists appeared in the earliest existing chronicle, the Primary Chronicle, which was compiled in Kyiv under Prince Vladimir Vsevolodovich Monomakh in the 1110s. Later chronicles also feature numerous lists of princes.

  • Colonization and the Church in High Medieval Sardinia
    Colonization and the Church in High Medieval Sardinia by Ann Wesson A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto © Copyright 2015 by Ann Wesson Colonization and the Church in High Medieval Sardinia Ann Wesson Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto 2015 Abstract This thesis investigates the role that the Church played in the political, spiritual and economic colonization of Sardinia in the high Middle Ages. By using Robert Bartlett’s conception of the European “center” and “periphery,” it shows that Sardinia represents an unusual case of a territory that was culturally both central and peripheral. Within this ambiguous cultural setting, and using papal letters, political treaties, chronicles, monastic documents, and onomastic evidence, the thesis examines the way Pisa, Genoa and the Roman pontiffs used Rome’s spiritual and cultural authority to strengthen their own political and economic claims in Sardinia. Specifically, by focusing on the archbishop of Pisa and the bishops and archbishops of Sardinia, it shows that the personnel of the Church, which are not commonly considered agents of colonization in Sardinia, were in reality fundamental to bringing Sardinian society closer to being a political and cultural extension of the Italian mainland. It also, however, investigates the ways in which local Sardinian rulers at times strongly resisted ecclesiastical pressures to conform to the norms of Rome, or used the spiritual prestige and cultural tools offered by the Roman Church to negotiate political advantages for themselves. In this way, the thesis finds that foreign cultural colonization in Sardinia was at times less effective than is generally assumed, and that in certain situations the personnel of the Sardinian Church could offer the means for resistance to foreign colonization.

  • Theturkic-Muslim Kara-Khanid Khanate, with a Capital in Balasagun
    The Power Configurations of the Central Civilization/ World System in the Twelfth Century DAVID WILKINSON Department of Political Science University of California, Los Angeles [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper is the fifteenth in a series in which the political careers of civilizations/world systems receive snapshot codings of their overall power structures at feasible intervals. The narratives are produced by collating histories with large frames of reference. The codings are done using a nominal variable, polarity, with seven available values: nonpolarity, multipolarity, tripolarity, bipolarity, (nonhegemonic) unipolarity, hegemony and empire. Previous articles in the series have examined the Indic system 550 BC-AD 1800, the Far Eastern 1025 BC – AD 1850, the Southwest Asian c 2700 – 1500 BC, the Northeast African c. 2625-1500 BC. The Northeast African and Southwest Asian systems and sequences merged c. 1500 BC to form the Central system. A previous article has coded this system from 1500 BC to 700 BC, and previous papers have examined the system from AD 1200 to date. In the current paper, the Central system’s power structure is coded at 10-year intervals 1100-1200. The century is entirely multipolar, although there is significant turnover among actors and churning of borders.
