Among the large caches of private documents discovered in China, few rival the Huizhou sources for the insight they provide into Chinese local society and economy over the past millennium. Having researched these exceptionally rich sources for decades, Joseph P. McDermott presents in two volumes his findings about the major social and economic changes in this important prefecture of south China from around 900 to 1600. In this first volume, we learn about village settlement, competition among religious institutions, agricultural production, the management of land, the struggle of the lineage to become Huizhou's dominant village institution, and the subsequent pre-eminence of Huizhou lineages in south China's commercial economy. This landmark study of religious life and economic activity, of lineage and land, and of rural society and urban commercial practices provides a compelling new framework for understanding a distinctive path of economic and social development for pre-modern China.
