Jun Jing is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the City University of New York.
This study focuses on the politics of memory in the village of Dachuan in northwest China, in which 85 percent of the villagers are sur named Kong and believe themselves to be descendants of Confucius. It recounts both how this proud community was subjected to intense suffering during the Maoist era, culminating in its forcible resettlement in December 1960 to make way for the construction of a major hydroelectric dam, and how the village eventually sought recovery through the commemoration of that suffering and the revival of a redefined religion.
Before 1949, the Kongs had dominated their area because of their political influence, wealth, and, above all, their identification with Confucius, whose precepts underlay so much of the Chinese ethical and political tradition. After the Communists came to power in 1949, these people, as a literal embodiment of the Confucian heritage, became prime targets for Maoist political campaigns attacking the traditional order, from land reform to the “Criticize Confucius” movement. Many villagers were arrested, three were beheaded, and others died in labor camps. When the villagers were forced to hastily abandon their homes and the village temple, they had time to disinter only the bones of their closest family members; the tombs of earlier generations were destroyed by construction workers for the dam.

Review
"One of the best local ethnographies to date on post-reform China. . . . Conceptually sophisticated yet undiminished by unnecessary jargon, the book provides one of the most readable and intelligently framed accounts of change and continuity at the local level in China." —Journal of Asian Studies
"Anthropologists and historians will find themselves rewarded by this nuanced examination of social memory, ritual life, and the traumatic recent history of a remarkable village."—China Review International
"This gem of a book takes the study of Chinese village culture to new levels of theoretical sophistication, ethnographic nuance and literary evocativeness. . . . There are many fine books that tell similar stories of the devastation of rural communities during the Maoist era. Dachuan is different only in that the depth of its tragedy was several degrees worse than most. But what makes Jun Jing's book unique is his discovery of a way to probe the meaning of such a history for the villagers."—China Quarterly
"All audiences can enjoy the universal subjects of the book—children and food. . . . Feeding China's Little Emperor's is useful both for anthropologists or those looking at social change over the last few decades."—The China Business Review
"In 1961 the entire village of Dachuan was destroyed when it was submerged under a reservoir created by a newly constructed hydroelectric dam. . . . In Jun Jing's beautifully written account, The Temple of Memories, he reveals how the villagers tra
遵循近代美国实用主义思潮,没有调查就没有发言权,没有数据就没有说服力,于是,用实践检验真理,用数据说话就理所当然了。这在本书体会的淋漓尽致,据此,作者表现了一个学者应有的姿态。 只是,事实真的如此?作者提出一个社会记忆的理论,并因此进行考察、分析、证明、得出...
評分本书的英文版出版于1996年,距今已二十余年。在这二十余年间,无论是作为整体的中国还是作为个体的大川村,都发生了翻天覆地且意想不到的变化。当年重建孔庙的人们大概会有依托孔庙提高村落名望的考虑,但那并非他们当时最重要的目的。而现在,情况完全不同了。 笔者通过检索近...
評分由一个数十代不断的村庄大川即可见证中国的历史,尤其是建国后的历史。作者选取的角度独特,从民间记忆入手,记叙了大川百姓的恐怖、苦难记忆,从大川重建庙宇、祭祀仪式等可以看到民间对于强权主导的选择性记忆与遗忘的回应。 惜哉如大川者无多矣。中国人善于忘却,加之强权下...
評分花了近一天的时间看完了《神堂记忆》。 作者对事件的描述那么清晰,不仅仅描述了一个村庄过去甚至现在发生的事情,甚至包括村庄的由来,孔姓人是如何来到了这里,追踪这个家族的历史足迹的,也可以看到大时代变迁的烙印。还有文中对族谱的研究也很细致,作者查阅了大量的文献...
