Description

中國為什麼需要皇帝?是過去式嗎?

我們如何思考皇帝對當代的影響?

皇帝夢為什麼那麼吸引人?

兩千年的帝制,是中國歷史最重要的一部分,或許也影響著我們的未來。

◎秦始皇一統六國,建立中國史上第一個帝國秦朝以來,皇帝就成為帝制中國統治者的稱號。

◎宋代的宰相並不是一人,應該視為以宰執為主的行政團隊,皇帝的行動並沒有想像的自由。

◎清代因為奏摺制度的實施與軍機處的創建,權力集中因而被視為中國歷史上皇權獨裁的顛峰。

◎清末民初的中國社會,「皇帝」從不可缺漏的核心,成為應該被放棄的選擇。

從秦始皇創制開始,皇帝就成為帝制中國統治者的稱號。在長城以北的內亞也出現了由單于領導的匈奴帝國。後來征服中國的內亞統治者,如遼金元清等征服王朝,其統治者也採用了皇帝的稱號。皇帝不僅存在於中國本部,甚至影響到了週邊文化與民族。

漢唐間的轉換是中國歷史上重要的變化,宋代的皇權歷經五代十國軍人以兄弟、義子武力獲取天下的經驗教訓,獲得權力之後至少在趙匡胤始,開始做得不只是收歸軍事、財政、地方兵權、政治,而是將權力核心緊緊抓在中央,並且強化自身訊息的溝通管道。

從宋到清,經歷了遼金元等異族統治,清代既是異族統治,又沿襲了部分明代的皇帝制度。雍正年間,因為奏摺制度的實施,軍機處的創建,皇帝可以事無巨細地掌握臣工言動,權力集中,因而被歷史學者視為中國歷史上皇權獨裁之顛峰。

清末民初的中國,面臨的是一急劇轉變的時代。上從國家型態、政治運作與思想文化型態,下至日常生活方方面面,皆被人們重新思考、檢驗。傳統中國的皇帝制度,自是各方人士的論爭焦點。

從更廣闊的角度來看,中國有皇帝,日本有天皇,兩者都是世襲制,通過中國與日本的比較,了解其中的差異與獨特性,讓讀者更能把握中國歷史的獨特性。

本書特色:

在過往學術研究的基礎上進行思考,採取多元視角且帶有歷史的縱深,透過最新發掘的考古資料與史料,還有個人的傳記,從不同的角度,動態的理解皇帝在傳統中國社會中的重要性。
