德國海德堡大學漢學系助理教授Maxim
Korolkov(馬碩)先生研究古代中華帝國的形成及其相關的經濟、社會和制度變遷,他的新書《The
Imperial Network
in Ancient
China: The
Foundation of
Sinitic Empire
in Southern
East Asia》(《古代中國的帝國網絡——中華帝國在東亞南部的建立》),2021年11月由Routledge出版發行。承馬碩先生慨允,茲將該書主要內容、目次揭載如下。
主要內容
《古代中國的帝國網絡——中華帝國在東亞南部的建立》通過對傳世文獻、考古資料與出土法律及行政文書簡牘的分析,作者探討南方交流網絡中流動的人力、物資和文化資源,以及不同地區之間在交流過程中形成的經濟、政治與軍事結構,揭示了帝國建造者如何善用這些資源和結構、以鞏固對東亞南部領土的控制。該書還研究秦漢時代“帝國網絡”與東亞南部人群所參與的其他長途交流結構之間的關係,嘗試證明“帝國網絡”和“非帝國網絡”的互動關係影響東亞長期的政治經濟發展、以及中國對中世紀歐亞全球化的參與。該書深化了帝國比較研究,爲帝國形成史與世界體系模型在前現代史研究中的適用性討論貢獻了成果。
