Materials for a Genealogy of the Niohuru Clan

With Introductory Remarks on Manchu Onomastics.

This volume reproduces in transcription a unique manuscript of twelve volumes of the genealogy of the Niohuru clan, one of the most influential Manchu noble clans in the Qing dynasty. The genealogical register is a valuable source for studies in Onomastica Manjurica, which are analysed and discussed in an introductory chapter both from etymological and as well as historical point of view. An alphabetical index facilitates the consultation. VIII,118 Seiten, broschiert (Aetas Manjurica; Tomus 10/Harrassowitz Verlag 2005)
