Genealogy and Status: Hereditary Office Holding and Kinship in North China under Mongol Rule - Harvard-Yenching Institute Monograph Series
Tomoyasu Iiyama
By shedding light on a long-forgotten epigraphic genre called “genealogical steles” that flourished in North China during the Mongol Empire, or Yuan Dynasty (1271–1368), Genealogy and Status explores the ways the conquered Chinese people understood and represented the alien Mongol ruling principles and kinship through their own cultural tradition.
