    A Piece of Qing History. The Historical Value of a Sibe Self-taught Historian's Collection of Genealogies
    (2023-06) Sárközi Ildikó Gyöngyvér
    The roots of the genealogy writing tradition of the Chinese Sibe go back to the Qing Dynasty. This tradition has played a crucial role to create a genealogical community of the Sibe: genealogies were the material carriers of knowledge preserved about their ancestors and their past. However, many of the genealogies were lost during the turbulent time of the twentieth century, and although numerous Sibe clans embark on reproducing their own family trees, it is only the memory of the elderly they can most often draw on. This study is intended to present and highlight the significance a specific collection of genealogies compiled by a self-taught Sibe historian, offering valuable sources for conduct research on the history of the Qing-dynasty and the Sibe.

    The place that connects the histories of the Uyghurs and the Sibe is known today as Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. These two ethnic groups possess entirely different characteristics regarding language, culture and religion. However, after the Chinese Communist Party had assumed power, Xinjiang – the place itself – came to closely intertwine all their struggles for preserving their ethnic identity. The stories of these struggles told to this day are not suited to serve as reflective sources for gaining a full and authentic understanding of the past, but their referential truth is not necessarily a key question. To understand events unfolding in the present, it is perhaps more important to see how these stories, which serve as the subject of remembering and put the past in a retrospective perspective while nurturing identity-shaping local history narratives. The study focuses on the presentation of this process, offering some help in understanding it through touching upon questions related to categorization in historiography, aspirations of historiographers and their impact on society, as well as to the losable nature of the present.
