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.

读后感

《中古中国门阀大族的消亡》 Nicolas Tackett 这应该是一片博士论文。写论文的同学可以看看人家的结构，真的很好。 两个概念：中古，外国汉学界对中国从秦末到宋初的这段时间，即前200年到960年这段时期；门阀，是门第和阀阅的合称，从士族发展起来，到东晋达到顶峰，直至唐末...  

与一般的史学著作不同，《中古中国门阀大族的消亡》是西方汉学家利用唐代墓志和传记建立史料数据库，对中国古代唐宋之变给出了自己的分析结论。 所谓唐宋之变，汉晋到唐以来一直主导政权的门阀大族，但到宋代时却完全消失不见。书的前半部主要是对墓志和传记的统计分析，阅读起...  

刚刚读完了上海辞书出版社的汉魏六朝诗鉴赏辞典，现在又同时在读洛阳伽蓝记和汉魏六朝文精选，所以对关于两晋以来门阀大族的历史还是蛮有兴趣的。特别看到了陈郡谢氏的谢朓，谢灵运还有很多材华横溢的文人名家最终在动荡的朝代更迭中的悲剧结局，对于本书的立义也就更感兴趣。 ...  

用户评价

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。

值得學習的是作者的數據分析法和把elite分為capital elites和provincial elites，註意到他們所擁有的資源和社會網是不一樣的。但是討論課時班裏有同學說他的觀點早在之前毛漢光和張國剛的研究就已經提出。

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。
