Martial Spectacles of the Ming Court pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
Like most empires, the Ming court sponsored grand displays of dynastic strength and military prowess. Covering the first two centuries of the Ming dynasty (1368–1644), Martial Spectacles of the Ming Court explores how the royal hunt, polo matches, archery contests, equestrian demonstrations, and the imperial menagerie were represented in poetry, prose, and portraiture. This study reveals that martial spectacles were highly charged sites of contestation, where Ming emperors and senior court ministers staked claims about rulership, ruler-minister relations, and the role of the military in the polity. Simultaneously colorful entertainment, prestigious social events, and statements of power, martial spectacles were intended to make manifest the ruler’s personal generosity, keen discernment, and respect for family tradition. They were, however, subject to competing interpretations that were often beyond the emperor’s control or even knowledge.
By situating Ming martial spectacles in the wider context of Eurasia, David Robinson brings to light the commensurability of the Ming court with both the Mongols and Manchus but more broadly with other early modern courts such as the Timurids, the Mughals, and the Ottomans.
David M. Robinson is Robert H.N. Ho Professor in Asian Studies and History at Colgate University.
For animal history teaching. This book demonstrates once again that the Ming court was considerably influenced by the Mongol imperial legacies. In many respects, modern "China" began with the establishment of the Mongol empire.

評分argument有點簡單。討論Martial Spectacle對於錶現rulership和identity非常重要。將Ming court放在歐亞文化來分析。詩歌翻譯有很多問題。
