Drawing on largely local sources, including local gazetteers and literati inscriptions for religious sites, this book offers a comprehensive examination of what it means to be 'local' during the Southern Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties in Ji'an prefecture (Jiangxi). It argues that 'belonging locally' was important to Ji'an literati throughout this period. How they achieved that, however, changed significantly. Southern Song and Yuan literati wrote about religious sites from within their local communities, but their early Ming counterparts wrote about local temples from their posts at the capital, seeking to transform local sites from a distance. By the late Ming, temples had been superseded by other sites of local activism, including community compacts, lineage prefaces, and community covenants.

Entre le XVIe et le XVIIIe siècle, trois parmi les plus grands Empires de l’époque moderne voient le jour ou se consolident en Russie, en Chine et en Inde (avec les Moghols). Cet ouvrage rend compte de cet essor sans précédent. Dans les steppes d’Asie centrale autant qu’en Inde, la lutte pour les chevaux est impitoyable ; leur alimentation et celle des hommes est toute aussi importante que la qualité des sabres. Au-delà, l’organisation militaire exige une discipline, une administration fiscale et un système de recrutement sans faille. En Inde, des guerriers ascètes combattent à côté de paysans affamés et des cavaliers rajputs ; dans les steppes d’Asie centrale, les cosaques déferlent à côté des cavaliers nomades ; en Chine enfin, des paysans han, des criminels ordinaires et des guerriers mandchous sont recrutés. Les relations entre paysans, seigneurs, soldats et administration dessinent une architecture complexe. Jusque vers le milieu du XVIIIe siècle, ces trois Empires sont parmi les plus puissants au monde et personne n’aurait misé sur la suprématie mondiale de l’Europe. Pourtant, un siècle plus tard, cette hiérarchie aura été complètement bouleversée. L’Occident domine la planète, mais pour combien de temps ? Alessandro Stanziani, auteur majeur du changement de perspective propre à l’histoire globale, explique dans ce livre les raisons, et les ressorts, de ce prodigieux retournement.

Despite the importance of books and the written word in Chinese society, the history of the book in China is a topic that has been little explored. This pioneering volume of essays, written by historians, art historians, and literary scholars, introduces the major issues in the social and cultural history of the book in late imperial China. Informed by many insights from the rich literature on the history of the Western book, these essays investigate the relationship between the manuscript and print culture; the emergence of urban and rural publishing centers; the expanding audience for books; the development of niche markets and specialized publishing of fiction, drama, non-Han texts, and genealogies; and more.
