Book Description
明清时代(公元1368~1911年)是陵寝建设史上的一个辉煌时期。明朝的开国皇帝朱元璋对陵寝制度作了重大改革。他将地上的封土堆由以前的覆斗式方形改为圆形或长圆形,又取消寝宫,并扩大了祭殿建筑。清代沿袭明代制度,更加注重陵园与周围山川形胜的结合,注重按所葬人辈分排列顺序,还形成了帝后妃陵寝的配套序列,在祭祀制度上也更加完善、合理。

What the Emperor Built
Author: Aurelia Campbell
Publisher: University of Washington Press
ISBN: 0295746890
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
One of the most famous rulers in Chinese history, the Yongle emperor (r. 1402–24) gained renown for constructing Beijing’s magnificent Forbidden City, directing ambitious naval expeditions, and creating the world’s largest encyclopedia. What the Emperor Built is the first book-length study devoted to the architectural projects of a single Chinese emperor. Focusing on the imperial palaces in Beijing, a Daoist architectural complex on Mount Wudang, and a Buddhist temple on the Sino-Tibetan frontier, Aurelia Campbell demonstrates how the siting, design, and use of Yongle’s palaces and temples helped cement his authority and legitimize his usurpation of power. Campbell offers insight into Yongle’s sense of empire—from the far-flung locations in which he built, to the distant regions from which he extracted construction materials, and to the use of tens of thousands of craftsmen and other laborers. Through his constructions, Yongle connected himself to the divine, interacted with his subjects, and extended imperial influence across space and time. Spanning issues of architectural design and construction technologies, this deft analysis reveals remarkable advancements in timber-frame construction and implements an art-historical approach to examine patronage, audience, and reception, situating the buildings within their larger historical and religious contexts.
