Its main aim is toanalyze changing narratives of lineages of Muslim descent, concerning thepersecution and forced assimilation they went through during the late Yuan andearly Ming periods. According to current accepted narratives, the fate of thelineages of Muslim descent was largely determined due to their ancestors' closeassociation with the Yuan Mongol rulers. These narratives have beendisseminated since the late fourteenth century through genealogical texts, orallegends, various references within the ancestral worship and symbolic imageriesin the family shrines. Focusing on the Lishi 麗史, a historical novel included in a Minggenealogy of a Fujianese lineage of Muslim descent, I address the changingperspectives regarding the Yuan treatment of its Muslim subjects, and analyzetheir role in Muslim descendants' identity formation from the Ming period downto the present. Discussion « Trading Along theYangzi: the Pains and Problems of Huizhou Merchants in the Late Ming »Joe McDERMOTT (University of Cambridge)  This paper explores Huizhoumerchants' perceptions of their commercial world and its practices in the late Ming.
