    清朝公主的荷包

    清朝公主的荷包

    清朝皇族婚入女子的財產權受到法律保障，但是皇族女子的財產權則缺乏法律保障，分產的機會也相對稀少。清朝公主出嫁後對於其陪嫁的人丁、動產與不動產並未擁有完整的所有權，僅擁有占有權、使用權與收益權，而不具備轉讓或出售的處分權，其後代對其亦無繼承權。本文以清代滿洲公主的陪嫁莊頭與壯丁為例，運用清代滿蒙漢文檔案材料和官書典籍，輔以其他二手研究文獻，以出嫁蒙古王公之清朝公主的收支為核心，並聚焦於其妝奩上，探討其財產的所有權、管理機制與公主薨逝後的轉讓情況。最後透過研究公主在崇奉藏傳佛教上的花費，說明清朝公主如何在清朝治理蒙古的政策中起到重要作用。

    From Ming Refugees to Qing Subjects : The Transformation of Chinese Diaspora in Southeast Asia, 1650-1700

    From Ming Refugees to Qing Subjects : The Transformation of Chinese Diaspora in Southeast Asia, 1650-1700

    During the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, the relaxation of the Ming sea ban, along with the arrival of the Europeans, generated a multipolar environment in East Asia. It revolved around the intra-Asian exchange centered upon Chinese silk and Japanese silver, and a nascent global flow of New World bullion to China and spices for Western Europe. The situation changed during the mid-seventeenth century amid mounting restrictions on overseas contacts from the Tokugawa shogunate of Japan and the consolidation and militarization of Chinese merchants under the Zheng family. By 1683, when the Qing forced the Zheng to surrender and occupied their bastion of Taiwan, China had achieved naval preeminence in the East Asian sea lanes. Other than a few outposts, the Europeans had largely withdrawn from the area north of island Southeast Asia, which remained under the hegemony of the Dutch East India Company. In 1684, the Qing court legalized private trade and travel abroad, prompting another wave of overseas migration. Authorities in China and across eastern maritime Asia enacted policies that kept the Qing merchants and immigrants separate from the earlier Ming loyalists. Additionally, both groups of Chinese were accorded significant political, economic, and legal privileges. This infrastructure, backed by Qing naval power, paved the way for the “Chinese century” in maritime Asia.
