The influence of literary inquisition in Qing dynasty

The influence of literary inquisition in Qing Dynasty: Literary inquisition seriously imprisoned thoughts, blocked the way of speech and hindered the development of science and culture, which was a reflection of the increasingly decadent feudal absolutism and its decline in the ideological and cultural fields. The rulers of the Qing dynasty strengthened centralized rule through the literary inquisition, which caused a chaotic situation. Under the pressure of the literary inquisition, some local operas have also suffered unprecedented destruction and devastation.

Scholars don't know what to do, so many people escape from reality and bury themselves in ancient paper's pile for textual research, thus forming a famous school in China's academic history, namely Ganjia School, which has made great contributions to the collation and research of China's ancient historical materials, and its research methods have been passed down from generation to generation, which has had a far-reaching impact on later academic circles.
