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.
按:给《南都周刊》写的“失望之书”,参考各种评价,综合说了一下。所有引用,文中都有说明。 2017年有关中国古代史的新书里,《中古中国门阀大族的消亡》是很惹人注目的一本,很多中文媒体除刊发书评外,还采访了该书作者谭凯。其中有文章说,中国门阀大族“在十世纪的完全...
评分 评分引入大数据分析是本书的吸睛之处,但本书的叙事风格很是无聊,多翻上几页就催人入睡。史景迁说过:“好的历史学家应该先学会讲好故事。”显然,作者并不是一个会讲好故事的历史学家。不过话说回来,其实不唯作者,现在很多学者的文章差不多都是这么一个风格,读起来大多味同嚼...
评分门第观念在中国有着悠久的文化传统,无论政策发生何种变化,把持上层社会的大族都表现出了良好的适应性,帮助家族的年轻人仕途高升。 大族之间显示出了复杂的,紧密的婚姻网络,阶级固化严重;且多居于京城,向外迁徙意味着重返政治生活困难;例如安史之乱时期,出现过大族外迁...

概括:通过对河北墓志铭一手资料的梳理(计算关键词的百分比、家族亲缘关系、与政府关系)有力地支持了唐宋世变论,并从侧面为择地而居和优生学提供了一定支持。
评分去年的新书。capital elite论述的非常有启发,作者认为中古士族大家结束于黄巢之乱。

评分Huang Chao as the decisive turning point; a sequel on cultural transformation will follow. Not critical enough for tomb epitaph rhetoric.
评分不错,开头很一般,从第二章开始渐入佳境。
