Book Summary
About the Book : Genealogy and Status : Hereditary Office Holding and Kinship in North China under Mongol Rule By shedding light on a long-forgotten epigraphic genre that flourished in North China during the Mongol Empire, or Yuan Dynasty (12711368), Genealogy and Status explores the ways the conquered Chinese people understood and represented the alien Mongol ruling principles through their own cultural tradition. This epigraphic genre, which this book collectively calls "genealogical steles," was quite unique in the history of Chinese epigraphy. Northern Chinese officials commissioned these steles exclusively to record a familys extensive genealogy, rather than the biography or achievements of an individual. Tomoyasu Iiyama shows
