In 221 B.C., the First Emperor of Qin unified the lands that would become the heart of a Chinese empire. Though forged by conquest, this vast domain depended for its political survival on a fundamental reshaping of Chinese culture. With this informative book, we are present at the creation of an ancient imperial order whose major features would endure for two millennia. The Qin and Han constitute the "classical period" of Chinese history - a role played by the Greeks and Romans in the West. Mark Edward Lewis highlights the key challenges faced by the court officials and scholars who set about governing an empire of such scale and diversity of peoples. He traces the drastic measures taken to transcend, without eliminating, these regional differences: the invention of the emperor as the divine embodiment of the state; the establishment of a common script for communication and a state-sponsored canon for the propagation of Confucian ideals; the flourishing of the great families, whose domination of local society rested on wealth, landholding, and elaborate kinship structures; the demilitarization of the interior; and the impact of non-Chinese warrior-nomads in setting the boundaries of an emerging Chinese identity. The first of a six-volume series on the history of imperial China, "The Early Chinese Empires" illuminates many formative events in China's long history of imperialism - events whose residual influence can still be discerned today.

评分读过此书，不仅问自己，为什么要重复写通史？如何写？何为优秀？ （1）世事变迁，人们看待事物、分析事物的角度也在不断变化，我们需要用新的视角审视过去、理解历史、展望未来。 （2）信手拈来正史资料，旁征博引经典古籍，成体系的归纳到新的构架。关于资料体系，融汇、准确...
评分喜爱阅读历史书籍的人总是乐于看到不同历史书不同作者的看法与观点，从中找到能带给自己启发的角度与启发，就如《哈佛中国史》的主编卜正民在序言中所提到的：身处房间的人永远看清房间所处的位置与环境。而外国学者编著的中国史恰好填补了这一块空白。 这一套《哈佛中...
评分文/吴情 这篇评论文章的题目略有些歧义，容易让人误以为是留学机构的招生广告，以名校为噱头，实际上，它涉及的是两套海外中国研究著作：剑桥中国史（Cambridge History of China）和哈佛帝制中国史（History of Imperial China）。前者由美国著名“中国通”费正清教授主编、...

西人写秦汉可避免国人头脑中明清帝国样本，但隔靴搔痒不是没有
评分六卷的哈佛中华帝国史英文版第一卷！通俗易读，不是纪传体也不是编年体而是从不同领域展现了早期两个帝国的历史，期待后面五卷！
评分作为一部篇幅有限的通史，鲁威仪没有拘泥于历史进程为纲的写法，除了首三章分别介绍秦汉地理、秦国体制和汉代扬弃，最后一章侧重东汉的失控外，其余部分关注多是秦汉社会结构和思想文化。作者将秦汉视为中国的"classical era"，在导论里就开章明义地表述了所谓古典时代的五个特征。一方面，秦汉首次初步建立起全国的秩序，作者努力体现出帝国维持国家统一的持之以恒努力，无论是地方的去军事化，边境对异族的打击与羁縻，还是对思想学说的统一。然而，东汉最终亡于对边境乱局的疲于应对和国内社会控制的削弱。另一方面，作者强调秦汉早期色彩，包括未成形的宗教观，法律的宗教残余，和国家建设中对囚徒的剥削。本书避开了一般通史写作路数，但也使全书无法反应秦汉四百年的动态变化，不少结论绝对化。可参考《新史学》23卷2期书评。
评分以主题的方式通贯性地论述秦汉帝国之主要性质，纲举目张，深探历史表面之下的潜流，很优秀的论著。
