明清时代之宗族与宗教

明代,政府采用了在庶民间渗透强化宗族关系,强调以宗法为基础的伦理观念的政策。本文以徽州文书及其他地域文书中与宗教相关的材料为基础,探讨上述政策及其对人们的渗透而产生的影响,在明清时代是如何使人们对带有宗教性的事物———特别是对寺院或僧侣———的意识行为发生变化的。

Patriarchal Clan and Religion in Ming-Qing Period

During the Ming Dynasty, the Government adopted the policy of permeating and strengthening patriarchal relations as well as emphasizing the ethics based on the patriarchal clan system among the common people. Drawing on the religion-related materials found in literary works in Huizhou and other districts, this paper discusses the above-mentioned policy and its influence on the common people as a result of its infiltration, i.e. how the policy altered people's conscious behavior towards religious things, particularly towards temples or monks, in the Ming-Qing period.
