Abstract

Abstract Using recent scholarship in archeology and social history, this study translates traditionally transmitted texts concerning the burials, funerals, and eulogies of the Xun family of Yingchuan. This focus creates a type of narrative over many generations that has never been attempted for an early medieval Chinese lineage. Details emerge of family locales, social bonding, and values, as well as insights into the situation of women. Ultimately, it contributes to the understanding of how politically important elite families fared from the end of Han through Western Jin. In the case of the Xuns, the evidence of burials and commemorations combined with other data shows that members fared variously but it can be argued that the family tended to diminish in importance after leading members' reputations were attacked, the family cemetery ruined, and the dynasty conquered. Nonetheless, a certain loyalty to the Sima dynasts can still be seen to operate.

认识地点:颍川荀家的埋葬、哀悼和纪念,公元140-305年
摘要:本研究运用考古学和社会史方面的最新研究成果,翻译了颍川荀氏家族有关墓葬、丧葬和悼词的传统文献。这种关注创造了一种跨越许多代人的叙事,这是中世纪早期中国血统从未尝试过的。家庭环境、社会关系和价值观的细节浮现出来,以及对女性处境的洞察。最终,它有助于理解政治上重要的精英家族从汉末到西晋是如何发展的。以荀氏为例,丧葬和纪念活动的证据与其他数据相结合,表明家族成员的生活各不相同,但可以认为,在主要成员的声誉受到攻击、家族墓地被毁、王朝被征服后,家族的重要性往往会下降。尽管如此,对司马王朝的某种忠诚仍然可以看到。
