Features: Based on existing academic achievements, this book attempts a comprehensive and in-depth exploration of the Ming Dynasty's literary selection system. It combines large-scale research with empirical analysis to reveal the stage of the literary selection system in the dynamic development of Ming Dynasty politics. The book points out that the Ming court made creative attempts to avoid excessive power concentration and to uphold the principles of fairness and efficiency in selection, but ultimately failed. As an important component of the central system in the Ming Dynasty, the literary selection system still provides a valuable perspective for understanding the historical characteristics of the Ming Dynasty.
