Community schools and improper shrines: Local institutions and the Chinese state in the Ming period (1368-1644).
Schneewind, Sarah Katherine.

Community schools and improper shrines: Local institutions and the Chinese state in the Ming period (1368-1644). - 516 p.

Adviser: Madeleine Zelin.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Columbia University, 1999.

This thesis follows a local institutional policy of the first Ming emperor to explore how and to what extent he shaped Chinese government and society, and how far the central Ming state controlled local institutions. In 1375, the emperor ordered a school to be established in every village. The policy was later suspended, revived and amended in response to local resistance and changing state priorities. The thesis is based on an empire-wide survey of over 600 local gazetteers and other materials. It shows that the high point of school building came in the early 1500s on a wave of Confucian activism independent of imperial orders. The activists' purposes and the schools they founded diverged from the emperor's plans. Particularly in the early Jiajing reign, activist administrators “destroyed improper shrines to establish community schools.” Standards of “impropriety” varied from one activist to the next; even institutions protected by imperial edict were condemned. Moreover, clergy and believers sometimes thwarted the attacks. The first Ming emperor had far less power over state and society than usually thought, and neither the Ming central state nor administrators could control local institutions.
