摘要
宋代是中国古代新型宗族体系得以确立的最重要时期,此后的中国基层社会组织出现了根本性的转变。随着唐以前社会基层权力体系的崩溃,宋代必须要在原有制度基础之上拓展新的路径,否则难以适应经济基础已然发生巨大变化的社会环境。宋儒在这一进程中发挥了非常重要的作用,他们逐步解决了新型宗族组织的理论问题,提出了很多切实可行而又具有规范意义的模式,这些理念随着元朝以后儒学地位的崇高而愈益得到民间的认同,使祠堂等设施得以普遍化,祠堂成为民间极其普遍的家族活动场所。
The Song Dynasty is the most important period in which a new clan system in ancient China was established. Compared with the family structure before the Tang Dynasty, Chinese grass - roots units after the Song Dynasty changed thoroughly. With the collapse of the basic authority system before the Tang Dynasty, it was necessary to build a new system to suit Song's society whose economic base had changed a lot. In this course, the Confucians in the Song Dynasty played a very important role. They not only solved the theoretical problems about the new clan system, but also posed many feasible and standard models. These concepts were gradually accepted by the common people with the ascent of the position of Confucianism after the Yuan Dynasty. As a result, the ancestral halls were generally built in China and became the major place where the family activities were held.
