具体描述

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.

作者的主要观点要说起来是简单的:1)丝绸之路绝大部分不是长距离的跨区域贸易,而是地方性的,短距离的贸易。2)丝绸之路的贸易产品绝大多数是本地制造而非外来输入,少量外来品种往往与政治紧密联系。3)丝绸之路的贸易量总体是不大的,但中原王朝对西域管控较紧密时本地经济...

译后记 说起来,本书的翻译起源于一封豆邮。原著刚一出版,韩森教授就寄了一本给我。我第一时间读完之后在豆瓣上晒了一下,紧接着就收到编辑张鹏的豆邮要我翻译此书。我当时没想太多就应了下来,没成想这翻译工作比我想象的要艰难很多。 除了要克服自己的拖延症(这个最难!...

2018.3.22看完 身为新疆人,对这条鼎鼎大名的“丝绸之路”一直只知其名,不解其实。阅读本周图书,刷新了我的惯常认知。尤其是卡师翻译,让人读来又有一番亲切。 作者通过大量有实证的出土文书、文物、古籍交相应证,从中解读出丝绸之路的真实面貌。尤其是她不拘泥于中文、英文...

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...
