生死朝暮：古人的生活与生命

This book is part of the "Life History Series," a project supported by the 2024 National Publication Fund. It is divided into three sections: making a living, life and death, consciousness of life over time, and old age. It comprehensively utilizes historical materials such as legal case files, local gazetteers, and literati collections to explore the relationship between life and social living from different perspectives. Upholding the research concept of "life history," it not only focuses on emperors, generals, and the literati class but also gives attention to ordinary people and even "marginalized" groups such as monks, beggars, and barbers. This book integrates daily life history, microhistory, and social history, demonstrating the significance of history through its concern for life. Starting with specific cases, it depicts the social customs and circumstances of various classes and regional populations in ancient China.
