"Like everything else written by Jonathan Spence, The Chan's Great Continent is an absolute must-read for anyone interested in China. Spence is one of the greatest Sinologists of our time, and his work is both authoritative and highly readable." — Los Angeles Times Book Review China has transfixed the West since the earliest contacts between these civilizations. With his characteristic elegance and insight, Jonathan Spence explores how the West has understood China over seven centuries. Ranging from Marco Polo's own depiction of China and the mighty Khan, Kublai, in the 1270s to the China sightings of three twentieth-century writers of acknowledged genius-Kafka, Borges, and Calvino-Spence conveys Western thought on China through a remarkable array of expression. Peopling Spence's account are Iberian adventurers, Enlightenment thinkers, spinners of the dreamy cult of Chinoiserie, and American observers such as Bret Harte, Mark Twain, Ezra Pound, and Eugene O'Neill. Taken together, these China sightings tell us as much about the self-image of the West as about China. "Wonderful. . . . Spence brilliantly demonstrates [how] generation after generation of Westerners [have] asked themselves, 'What is it . . . that held this astonishing, diverse, and immensely populous land together?' "-- New York Times Book Review

评分“在谈论中国的小说中,最具美学成就的三部,都完成于二十世纪,分别为卡夫卡的《中国长城》(),博尔赫斯的《曲径分岔的花园》(),和卡尔维诺的《看不见的城市》()。但是三本小说却完成于不同时段,彼此间隔了大约二十五年,一本在一战时期,一本在二战时期,一本在1970...
评分 评分内容质量与水准不像介绍而言的那么好,基本上可以认为是乔纳森氏读研究生的读书笔记而已。将西方对中华的认知做了一个大略的梳理,insight并不太多,而且这种梳理也不是非常完整。大概乔氏本人的兴趣相关,所选书目,学术性的汉学典籍并不多,多是一些散文与文学性的描述文字。...
评分I prefer to read two chapters for entertainment only, one is ''The French Exotic" (Chap 8) , another is "An American Exotic"(Chap 9).
