Jere L. Bacharach

4.9/5 (27985 ratings)

Description:Essentially a case-study of sinicization, an important and recurring phenomenon in Chinese history, this book examines the relations between the Chinese and the seminomadic Jurchen from Manchuria. It traces the political, economic and sociocultural change among the Jurchen conquerors who tried to perpetuate their rule of the conquered majority in North China, elucidating the fusion of Chinese and Jurchen cultures, and the consequent assimiliation of the Jurchen by the Chinese. The Jurchen, a Tungusic people from Manchuria, conquered the Liao and the Northern Sung and established the Chin dynasty. The change brought about by their mixed acceptance of and reaction against Chinese culture eventually evolved into a Sino-Jurchen cultural synthesis. Although largely sinicized by the end of the Chin dynasty, they left their mark on the formation of political institutions and on the literary heritage of China.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
