晚清江南望族的修谱动员——以《申报》为中心

Genealogy Re-writings of Distinguished Families in the South in Late Qing Dynasty——Perspectives from Shenbao

咸同兵燹对近代中国江南社会经济和宗族秩序造成重大冲击的同时,也为江南望族重建宗族秩序提供了新的契机。战乱之后,江南望族纷纷在《申报》上刊登修谱广告,掀起修谱动员热潮,试图通过续修族谱来重建宗族秩序。修谱广告内容丰富,尤以修谱类型、谱资来源、修谱要求、通讯地址、谱局和落款等内容为主。虽然在近代化早期,由于战争影响和报纸阅读群体的限制,致使短期内修谱动员效果不佳,但从长时段来看,仍有不少宗族通过这种方式完成修谱任务。

Economy and clan order in the South were impacted significantly by Taiping rebellion. At the same time,the Taiping movement also furthered southern distinguished families to reconstruct the clan order. After the war,in order to reconstruct the clan order,many distinguished families in the South began to advertise genealogy re-writings in Shenbao(《申报》). The rich content of genealogy re-writings included types of genealogy writings,sources of genealogy,requirements of genealogy writings,addresses,patterns of genealogy writings,inscriptions,and so on. The results of genealogy re-writings were not good in a short time because the reading group of Shenbao was affected by the war. However,in the long-term period,there were still many clans completed the genealogy re-writing task in this manner.
