During the late imperial era (1500-1911), China, though divided by ethnic, linguistic, and regional differences at least as great as those prevailing in Europe, enjoyed a remarkable solidarity. What held Chinese society together for so many centuries? Some scholars have pointed to the institutional control over the written word as instrumental in promoting cultural homogenization; others, the manipulation of the performing arts. This volume, comprised of essays by both anthropologists and historians, furthers this important discussion by examining the role of death rituals in the unification of Chinese culture.
清明前看完也算应景,导论两章引用最多,食物那章也不错,最感兴趣是最后一章殡仪改革,不过小失望。大部分章节看起来应该很有趣,不过变成了材料梳理,例如毛的遗体处理、仪式专家那两章。让我惊讶的是材料我都好陌生,变迁太快了……
评分Some ideas are quite outdated. But how we should interpret rituals is an eternal topic. And there are some interesting explanations about food and gender in Chinese funeral rituals.
评分华琛、罗友枝合编【虽然时过境迁,有些论述还是很有意思的,作者们本意不是讨论丧葬,而是国家—社会之间的文化聚合】
评分两位编者分别代表人类学与历史学发声,几乎针锋相对……
评分硕士毕业论文,从图书馆借的,放在手里一年,Mark一下以纪念。
