Family Memory and Ethnic Identity of the Yan 晏 Clan:Based on the Family Biography of Mongolian Zhiliji 直理吉(Jirigi)Clan
The Family Biography of Mongolian Zhiliji 直理吉(Jirigi)Clan,written by Zheng Zhen郑真in the early Ming Dynasty,has not been valued by the academic community for a long time because most translated terms in the common versions were adapted.According to the materials provided by the family members,the author of the book had a more detailed description of the family's genealogy in the Yuan Dynasty,but for the early family history,because the family memory were unable to restore,he could only refer to the Tongjian Xubian通鉴续编and other historical documents to rewrite,which caused a lot of mistakes.In spite of this,the family biography provides a valuable and vivid source of information on the complex interactions among ethnic groups in Chinese history,which deserves our attention.
