柏孜克里克千佛洞风光没拍好
评分a really dense book, but more from a third-party perspective
评分4.5
评分确实是虎头蛇尾
评分以絲路上的城市為敘述主軸,配上近代的探險家故事與發掘出的文書資料簡介,圖像資料不少,可以當個二手文獻綜述來讀。不過建議配合其他關於絲路的歷史書來讀,會更清楚絲路早期的歷史脈絡。

The Silk Road is as iconic in world history as the Colossus of Rhodes or the Suez Canal. But what was it, exactly? It conjures a hazy image of a caravan of camels laden with silk on a dusty desert track, reaching from China to Rome. The reality was different, and far more interesting, as revealed in this new history. In The Silk Road, Valerie Hansen describes the remarkable archaeological finds that revolutionize our understanding of these trade routes. For millennia, key records remained hidden--often deliberately buried by bureaucrats for safe keeping. But the sands of the Taklamakan Desert have revealed fascinating material, sometimes preserved by illiterate locals who recycled official documents to make insoles for shoes or garments for the dead. Hansen explores seven oases along the road, from northwest China to Samarkand, where merchants, envoys, pilgrims, and travelers mixed in cosmopolitan communities, tolerant of religions from Buddhism to Zoroastrianism. Hansen notes that there was no single, continuous road, but a chain of markets that traded between east and west. China and the Roman Empire had very little direct trade. China's main partners were the peoples of modern-day Iran, whose tombs in China reveal much about their Zoroastrian beliefs. Hansen writes that silk was not the most important good on the road; paper, invented in China before Julius Caesar was born, had a bigger impact in Europe, while metals, spices, and glass were just as important as silk. Perhaps most significant of all was the road's transmission of ideas, technologies, and artistic motifs. The Silk Road is a fascinating story of archeological discovery, cultural transmission, and the intricate chains across Central Asia and Southeast Asia.
丝绸之路是一个源于西方的现代发明。虽然那些与它有关的历史、传说、遗迹一直存在着,但直至1877年德国历史学家李希霍芬提出“丝绸之路”这一概念之前,往来于这些亚洲腹地的沙漠绿洲商路上的人们并不知道这个词,当然更不可能使用它。这就像“亚洲”这一欧洲概念传入以前,中...
评分以文字、考古和学界多年科研成果综合归纳丝绸之路东段中国境内南北道,讲述7处重要城市或者遗址,信息量大,资料丰富。文物和丝路路线图非常生动。 缺点是庞杂无规律,每节内内容缺少逻辑联系,有些是时间顺序,有些是赫定等的考察顺序,夹杂大量各种资料,看得人云山雾罩。对...
评分北京大学的荣新江教授是研究敦煌学的专家,他的专著不少,对我来说阅读起来有些吃力,所以,尽管对荣新江教授的研究领域非常好奇,我选择的略知一二的途径是,一俟荣新江教授到上海博物馆来做讲座,我都会去听听,一次两次三次以后加上浏览过几本相关书籍,关于丝绸之路,...
评分普及性的学术著作。我们对此书的评价也应从此角度出发,不应吹毛求疵、以偏概全,现在豆瓣上个别人有非常不好的评论习气,抓住别人只言片语的不同意见便把人家贬得狗屎不如。殊不知学术创新也是一个逐渐积累的过程,并不可能每一本书、每一篇著作都要完成根本性的创新,那些说...
评分先扯两句闲话,关于读书,我一直觉得,读书是很私人趣味的事,当然,为了研究,那是专业人士的工作。作为普通人,读一点书,无外丰富自己对世界看法,我一向读书很杂,说到底,都是趣味,在读什么这件事情上,是一个无聊的中年人极少可以自由支配自己的那么几件事,不受老板的...
