The complete disappearance by the tenth century of the medieval Chinese aristocracy, the "great clans" that had dominated China for centuries, has long perplexed historians. In this book, Nicolas Tackett resolves the enigma of their disappearance by using new, digital methodologies to analyze a dazzling array of sources. He systematically exploits the thousands of funerary biographies excavated in recent decades--most of them never before examined by scholars--while taking full advantage of the explanatory power of Geographic Information System (GIS) and social network analysis. Tackett supplements these analyses with an extensive use of anecdotes culled from epitaphs, prose literature, and poetry, bringing to life the women and men of a millennium ago. The Destruction of the Medieval Chinese Aristocracy demonstrates that the great Tang aristocratic families were far more successful than previously believed in adapting to the social, economic, and institutional transformations of the seventh and eighth centuries. Their political influence collapsed only after a large proportion of them were physically eliminated during the three decades of extreme violence that followed Huang Chao's sack of the capital cities in 880 CE.
Nicolas Tackett is Associate Professor of History at the University of California, Berkeley.
诚如作者自己所说,有关中古门阀大族的研究一直是个热点,唐宋变革所带来的社会政治精英的转型究竟在何时发生有些争议。安史之乱一直被视作为唐朝衰落与转折的起点,社会政治精英的改造也被纳入安史之乱的影响之一。 然而谭凯成功的聚焦了一个问题:转变是一个连续性的过程,而...

我不知道為什麼老是有人把這書認作作者當年的博士論文,根----本----就----不----是----好嘛。
评分我认为作者还是有非常高超的技巧,一个网络分析可能引发无数的批评,但是作者在娴熟的学术自澄中限定好了研究目的与研究问题,我觉得这就够了。虽然大小结论上稍显过时,但是通过量化分析与前人研究的对话还是给人很大的启发。
评分Digital Humanities applied to Tang history
评分Huang Chao as the decisive turning point; a sequel on cultural transformation will follow. Not critical enough for tomb epitaph rhetoric.
评分作者公布了他自己建的晚唐五代人物数据库,个人网页上提供下载。跟博士论文比,文字少了,五花八门的图表更多了,略感烧脑
