摘要
明代中后期实授苏州知府64任62人次,他们的任职情形是正统以降地方中高级文官铨选的典型示例,也是理解彼时苏州府政治运作与权力关系的有效途径。62位知府全部由科举人仕,九成以上为进士出身,地域和户类呈现出整体广泛而不失局部集中的分布态势,主要从户刑兵工礼五部的部属官和以监察御史为主体的言官中选拔而来。进士功名的有无和等级、初除官职的内外分别,在他们的仕途中发挥着程度不一的影响。完成九年考满即行升调,任期、治效与徙任三者之间的关联度不甚紧密。明代苏州府事繁赋重,兼之豪贵掣肘,这对知府任职构成相当的压力,但主政苏州的经历对个人宦途较为重要,四分之一的知府官至于此,而跻身三品以上高级官员的比率则超过一半。
In the mid and late Ming China,a history spanning almost two hundred years,there were sixty-two magistrates of Suzhou Prefecture.The appointment of such mandarins mirrored not only the system of selecting intermediate and senior level officials but also the political maneuver and power relations in a very traditional sense.This paper examines several factors related to the political life of magistrates superintending Suzhou.
