读的是英文版,读完后搜了才发现有中文版????,刚读完有种学到了不少知识的感觉,但回想起来就有种先定论乃至“大分流”的既视感,很多地方说服力不够,许多推论过于武断:许多材料论述都会落到“日本19世纪前就已经不比欧美城市差乃至更好”的落脚点,但问题在于这些所谓的好是自身传统的问题还是大环境的限制,乃至于认为东亚本身具有一定的现代性但东亚还是没能演化成现代,这也是一个很大的问题。

Japan was the only non-Western nation to industrialize before 1900 and its leap into the modern era has stimulated vigorous debates among historians and social scientists. In an innovative discussion that posits the importance of physical well-being as a key indicator of living standards, Susan B. Hanley considers daily life in the three centuries leading up to the modern era in Japan. She concludes that people lived much better than has been previously understood - at levels equal or superior to their Western contemporaries. She goes on to illustrate how this high level of physical well-being had important consequences for Japan's ability to industrialize rapidly and for the comparatively smooth transition to a modern, industrial society. While others have used income levels to conclude that the Japanese household was relatively poor in those centuries, Hanley examines the material culture - food, sanitation, housing, and transportation. How did ordinary people conserve the limited resources available in this small island country? What foods made up the daily diet and how were they prepared? How were human wastes disposed of? How long did people live? Hanley answers all these questions and more in an accessible style and with frequent comparisons with Western lifestyles. Her methods allow for cross-cultural comparisons between Japan and the West as well as Japan and the rest of Asia. They will be useful to anyone interested in the effects of modernization on daily life.
日本是近代唯一一个逃脱被殖民的命运、相反还跻身列强的非西方国家。在世人眼中,日本当时从一个落后国家向现代国家的“变身”,是在明治维新时期短短的十多年间突然完成的。这种广为流行的叙述过分强调了断裂与变革,但却对日本社会的延续性过于忽视——事实上,今天的日本文...

评分有个问题困扰我很久了,就是同样锁国的德川幕府和清朝,为什么前者没有被殖民反而变成了列强。我觉得社会的精神型态以及由此而产生的制度结构应该是很重要的一个因素,这本书看似从日常生活的小方面入手,但处处体现出的是一种意识形态,有些对于我们现在仍有启发意义,即使现...
评分其實不是書評,讀完後幾個想法,寫在日記中,在這裡也留一筆期待回應。 今天讀《近世日本的日常生活》,又見友鄰書評,有些疑惑想不清楚,暫且記下了。 一是中日兩國近代都有閉關鎖國的歷史,但是被迫開國后對待新事物的態度與接納速度截然不同,這是為何。 二是日本在閉關...
评分虽然不是名家的宏篇巨著,观点却耳目一新:生活水平的提高并不等于生活质量的提高、简约一样能产生奢华、(生活的)品质因素是可以度量的等等,观点很多,开卷有益。更重要的是,此书开创了从生活小事中跨进“研究”殿堂的途径,很好!
