秦汉的诸生与政治

秦汉时期的“诸生”是习儒而未仕者的泛称 ,包括经师的门徒、弟子和官学的郡国生徒、太学生、鸿都学士等。诸生是秦汉时期参预政治的基本群众。在秦和西汉初 ,诸生不仅是博士和经师学术上的继承人 ,而且是他们政治上的助手。东汉中期以后 ,由于政治黑暗 ,诸生对政治也逐渐由配合转为批判 ,进而在党锢之祸中与宦官进行面对面的斗争。诸生的社会地位决定了他们在政治斗争中具有依违其间的特性 ,因而每当有重大政治变动时 ,往往就会发生分裂

Zhusheng and Politics in Qin and Han Dynasties

Zhusheng is the general term for those who studied Confucianism but failed to make an office in Qin and Han Dynasties, including private disciple and official Jungongshengtu (students taught by local government), Taixuesheng, Hongduxueshi (students taught by central government). Zhusheng formed the fundamental masses for participation in politics in Qin and Han Dynasties. Zhusheng was not only the academic successor to Boshi and teacher of classic, but also the political assistant in Qin and early Western Han Dynasties. After mid Eastern Han Dynasties, with politics corruption, Zhusheng gradually changed their attitudes from coordination to criticism, and then directly fought eunuch during the Faction of Turmoil. Their social positions made their vacillating nature in political struggle, therefore, once major political changes happened, they would split into different groups.
