This paper shows several characteristics of the genealogies of the Chosen dynasty during the sixteenth century as follows. Firstly, the principles, the content and form of genealogies differed from genealogies in the fifteenth century due to strengthened political content. The theories of Song Confucians about the genealogies were taken seriously and comprehensively, so Zhang Zai's idea of compiling genealogies was thought of highly while Su Xun's thought is still popular. Secondly, as for the process of compiling genealogies, there was a change in tendency from jiadie to liu-cun-pu. Thirdly, the best genealogy with abundant content and perfect form was Jiajing wenhua liushi shipu (The Genealogy of the Liu Clan from Wenhua County during Jiajin period) in the sixteenth century while the most famous scholar of genealogy was Zheng Kunshou. Fourthly, while the genealogy were still presented in internal and external forms, the patriarchal clan system became more influential in the sixteenth century. Lastly, the Japanese invasion during the sixteenth century destroyed the old genealogies; however, this stimulated the recompiling activities. |
