本課程主要由中央研究院歷史語言研究所副研究員王鴻泰老師策劃，中文系高禎臨老師與歷史系吳靜芳老師協助規劃與執行，將以講座方式邀請國內學界在明清領域之研究者分別就自身專長開課，預計授課的內容包括城市生活與文化、消費與風尚、物質文化、社會經濟、出版傳播、士人交遊與活動空間、文人生活、園林美學、宗教信仰、節慶活動、女性生活與文學創作等；藉由不同主題的開展，呈現極具時代特色的明清社會與文化。
明清兩代在中國近代史上具備著關鍵性的轉折意義，同時也為我們現代生活奠定了重要的基礎。明代中葉以後整個社會環境的改變，影響了人們的生活型態與思考方式；其中包括精神內涵的變化、社會流動益趨普遍、市場經濟與消費文化的蓬勃發展、教育與識字率的提升、出版技術與書籍文化的累積、審美品味的改變，以及更多元的藝術創作及娛樂活動的興起等。這一些從精神情感到物質生活層面的劇烈變化，也進而影響了人們的感官經驗與情欲內涵，並形成了明清時期殊異而豐富的時代特色。
回顧歷史的一種重要意義往往在於與當代形成對話，故而我們將這一門「明代社會與文化」課程開設在通識人文領域裡，正是預設這樣的一門課是適合全校同學選修的。這是一門跨領域的課程，我們將從歷史記載、文學作品與藝術創作，甚至是建築景觀等各種媒介，帶領大家一窺明清兩代精彩的生活內涵與豐沛的精神情感。
選擇明清作為一個回推的起點，除了因為這是最貼近我們的一段歷史，也因為這段時間所累積下來的思維方式與生活型態，不僅累積下繁花似錦的文化內涵；明代崛起的城市文化以及人們對於生活品味的追求，某種程度而言也正與我們今日的時代巧妙呼應著。
這一門課將帶著大家走入明清社會的各種生活場域，從城市到近郊，從女性閨房到男子世界，從書坊到園林，並參與當時各種精彩的或節慶活動，同時也走入明清士人與百姓的內在世界，傾聽他們的思想、情感與生命的想望；期能將明清兩代饒富興味的生活文化與生命美學介紹給同學；藉由這些課程一訪明清歷史時空，或者也可能影響著我們看待自身存在於這個時代的方式。
知識的引導只是課程的起點，但我們更希望藉由這門課讓同學們對於古代生活美學有更進一步的認識，並因這些深入淺出、跨越各種領域的授課內容引發對於該段歷史裡所包含的細膩情思、品味與美感的高度興趣，進而奠定學生的人文素養與人文關懷。這當是當今大學教育不容動搖與忘卻的教育理念與教學初衷。This course is mainly planned by Mr. Wang Dongtai, associate researcher of the Institute of History and Language of the Central Academy of Sciences. Teachers from the Chinese Department and Mr. Wu Jingfang, a teacher from the Department of History, will invite researchers from the domestic academic community in the Ming and Qing dynasties to start their own courses through lectures. The contents of the courses are planned including city City life and culture, consumption and style, material culture, social economy, publishing and publicity, scholars' communication and activity space, literati life, garden beauty, religious belief, festival activities, women's life and literary creation, etc.; through the development of different themes, the society and culture of the Ming and Qing dynasties with extremely contemporary characteristics are presented.
The Ming and Qing dynasties had a key meaning in the modern history of China, and at the same time laid an important foundation for our modern life. The changes in the entire social environment since the Middle of the Ming Dynasty affected people's lifestyles and ways of thinking; these included the changes in spiritual connotations, the widespread trend of social mobility, the vigorous development of market economy and consumer culture, the improvement of education and word recognition, the accumulation of publishing technology and book culture, the change of aesthetic taste, and the rise of more diverse artistic creations and entertainment activities. These dramas that feel the physical life level from the spiritual emotions also affect people's sensory experience and the connotation of lust, and form the special and rich characteristics of the times during the Ming and Qing dynasties.
An important meaning of looking back at history often lies in forming dialogue with the contemporary era, so we set up this "Ming Dynasty Society and Culture" course in the field of universal humanities, which is exactly what we have planned for students in the school to choose. This is a cross-regional course. We will bring you the wonderful life connotation and abundant spiritual emotions from historical records, literary works and artistic creations, and even architectural landscapes.
Choosing the Ming and Qing dynasties as the starting point of a re-retrograde push is not only because this is the most recent history, but also because of the way of thinking and lifestyle accumulated during this period, not only the cultural connotation of flowers and the rising urban culture of the Ming Dynasty and people's pursuit of life taste are also cleverly accord with our current era to a certain extent.
This class will take everyone into various living areas of the Ming and Qing societies, from cities to suburbs, from women's houses to men's world, from bookshops to gardens, and participate in various exciting or festival activities at that time, and also enter the inner world of the Ming and Qing scholars and the people, Listen to their thoughts, emotions and life’s wishes; hope to introduce the lively culture and life aesthetics of the two generations of Ming and Qing dynasties to students; through these courses, visiting the history and space of the Ming and Qing dynasties, or it may also affect the way we view our existence in this era.
The introduction of knowledge is only the starting point of the course, but we hope that through this course, we can give students a further understanding of ancient life aesthetics, and to inspire high interest in the detailed emotions, tastes and beauty contained in this history due to these in-depth and clear teaching contents, across various fields, to lay the foundation for students' humanistic cultivation and humanistic concern. This is the educational philosophy and teaching original intention that college education cannot be swayed or forgotten.
