读的第一本学术论著。Introduction很好的概括了全书的目的、内容。论证清晰,虽然有些地方论据不足不够有说服力。但欧立德对于清史研究所提出的新视角,意义重大。
评分总体感觉欧立德此书不如濮德培的China Marches West,核心观点不够凸显,按我的理解就是:一个国家、族群的民族主义或种族观念,对正统或血脉的强调,往往是在其遇到内外危机的时候才变得明显,而在其如日中天的时候,反而是比较的淡薄。

评分趁essay機會好好重新了解一下「大清」
评分该书着重使用满文老档,这个很了不起。从制度,而不是从ideology的角度谈满族,这个也很勇敢。可是,写法真的是不清楚。明明看着观点在眼前晃却找不到答案的时候太多了。
In 1644, the Manchus, a relatively unknown people inhabiting China’s rude northeastern frontier, overthrew the Ming, Asia’s mightiest rulers, and established the Qing dynasty, which endured to 1912. From this event arises one of Chinese history’s great conundrums: How did a barely literate alien people manage to remain in power for nearly 300 years over a highly cultured population that was vastly superior in number? This problem has fascinated scholars for almost a century, but until now no one has approached the question from the Manchu point of view.
This book, the first in any language to be based mainly on Manchu documents, supplies a radically new perspective on the formative period of the modern Chinese nation. Drawing on recent critical notions of ethnicity, the author explores the evolution of the “Eight Banners,” a unique Manchu system of social and military organization that was instrumental in the conquest of the Ming.
The author argues that as rulers of China the Manchu conquerors had to behave like Confucian monarchs, but that as a non-Han minority they faced other, more complex considerations as well. Their power derived not only from the acceptance of orthodox Chinese notions of legitimacy, but also, the author suggests, from Manchu “ethnic sovereignty,” which depended on the sustained coherence of the conquerors.
When, in the early 1700s, this coherence was threatened by rapid acculturation and the prospective loss of Manchu distinctiveness, the Qing court, always insecure, desperately urged its minions to uphold the traditions of an idealized “Manchu Way.” However, the author shows that it was not this appeal but rather the articulation of a broader identity grounded in the realities of Eight Banner life that succeeded in preserving Manchu ethnicity, and the Qing dynasty along with it, into the twentieth century.
满族在中国历史上扮演着一个重要的角色。满洲统治者在整个清王朝一直处于政治支配者地位。关于满族史的比较传统的一类看法, 往往将满族形成的时间定位于1644 年清军入关之前。有人把努尔哈赤称汗建国, 或满文的创制看作是满族形成的重要标志; 也有学者认为, 满族共同体的最终形...

评分1所读第二本新清史著作 2与“汉化观(Sinicization)”不同,强调清帝国的满洲性(Manchuness)。反驳学界主流的满人汉化说,认为满清一朝,满清利用八旗制度维系满人族群认同,而且也卓有成效。八旗兵的腐化堕落是事实,满语的衰退也是事实。但民族构建是有多种维度,从其他方面,...
