由司马迁任职情况看汉武帝时期的官制变革

On the Reform of Official System during the Reign of Hanwudi from the Perspective of the Positions Sima Qian Held

司马迁历任郎中、太史令、中书令等职,从他的任职情况上,可以看出汉武帝时的官制发生了重大的变革,具体表现在:一是改革选官制度,广纳贤才;二是增减职位,改变职责;三是更名部分官职。官制的改革强化了君主专权及中央集权,有力地保障了武帝各项事业的顺利进行,并对后代官制产生了深远的影响。

Sima Qian held the positions like langzhong, taishiling, and zhongshuling. From the perspective of the positions he held, we could see that great changes had taken place as far as the official system was concerned. The changes can be revealed in the following three aspects:(1) reform the official selection system and extensively choose talented people; (2) increase or decrease the positions and change the duties; (3) change the names of some official positions. The reform of official system reinforced the monarchal autocracy and centralization and forcibly guaranteed the smooth performance of various causes during Hanwudi's reign, thus producing a far-reaching influence on the official system of later generations.
