Summary:碩士 === 東海大學 === 歷史學系 === 104 === The paper is a study with emphasis on the funeral ritual system of the Qing Dynasty Imperial Family. Starting from the State foundation by Nurhachi, the system foundation had evolved into exceptionality to cope with needs and pragmatism as time flew and the increasing influence of Han culture. A number of problems derived from Manchu’s domination of central China such as the Eight Banner System, Khan regime and imperial power, have been widely discussed. The paper attempts to take stance on the system dimension and discusses from development of the funeral system of imperial family with analysis on the system transformation of Qing Dynasty and its process of transformation from virtual to reality. Under the development of needs and pragmatism, the funeral system of the Qing Dynasty had been implemented with the inheritance of Ming Dynasty by Qing Dynasty from Huangtaiji Era to before and after the entrance. The system further developed exceptionality through self-cognition and acceptance and fusion with Han culture. The researcher emphasizes on Yinxiang of Yongzheng Empire and Yihuan of the Guangxu Empire in the study of exceptionality. The two princes owned equivalent identity and ranking and the content of funeral rituals revel and entire and gradual influence of Han culture before and after the entrance while providing a perspective of research dimension to the imperial power in Qing Dynasty compared with the past studies. A set of system applicable to the Great Qing Dynasty was hence established under the principles of Manchu Imperial cult of the early Qing Dynasty.
