Titles and Designations in a Study of the Qin and Han Dynasties : Part I

This book is the first monograph on the systematic study of 'appellation' in Qin and Han Dynasties. It uses the 'double evidence method', which combines archaeological data with historical documents, to discuss the generation, use and social significance of various appellations related to hierarchical order, professional identity, family structure, administrative control and social fashion in the Qin and Han Dynasties, so as to reveal the social, historical and cultural features at that time from a special perspective.
