The Arguments of the Spring and Summer Bulletin in the Hongwu Thirtieth Years

Article Summary by: TsingHua    

Original Author: Journal of Jiangxi Institute of Education
This abstract was translated from 洪武三十年春夏榜辨异
The spring and summer bulletin is also called the south and sorth bulletin.There are several po ints about the reason of
the event such as examiners' bias,struggles among part ies,the accidental error of the northerner and the deviation of the enrollment.M any proofs have stated clearly:there are no enough reasons to support the first and second points;the third point is the saying of avoiding the fact;the forth point is reasonable.This event seems to be a cheating event of imperial examinat ion related with the struggles among parties.In fact,its deeper reason is a prob lem of political weighing and strife.Its purpose is to balance the confucian enl ightenment between south and north and then to balance the domination between th em.Objectively,it has the positive significance in the development of northern c onfucianism and in promoting the renewal of the northern confucianism.At the sam e time,it also lays a foundation for successive emperors to continue this policy and to take the gentle distribution system of enrollment.
