挺好看的
评分為何要將一個如此近代的“殖民”(colonization)強加在一個premodern的Qing Empire與西南民族的互動呢?如要將大清帝國構造為一個具有近代史、全球史意義的帝國,是否能忽視清以前的中央與周邊蠻夷的政策延續性呢?如此觀念先行、西方本位的歷史寫作分明顯露出作者在北美“新清史”中的較為極端的一種取向。
评分很水的一本书。导论提到早期现代的再现变化(例如,制图术的图像、文本描述和人物的淡出等),集中体现帝国时空观念的转变,这一段非常重要,但作者写得比较凌乱,掺杂的东西太多,没有进一步深挖。另外注意作者与Siam Mapped(《图绘暹罗》)的一点点对话。
评分本来还觉得比较新鲜,越看越无感

In Qing Colonial Enterprise, Laura Hostetler shows how Qing China (1636-1911) used cartography and ethnography to pursue its imperial ambitions. She argues that far from being on the periphery of developments in the early modern period, Qing China both participated in and helped shape the new emphasis on empirical scientific knowledge that was simultaneously transforming Europe--and its colonial empires--at the time.
Although mapping in China is almost as old as Chinese civilization itself, the Qing insistence on accurate, to-scale maps of their territory was a new response to the difficulties of administering a vast and growing empire. Likewise, direct observation became increasingly important to Qing ethnographic writings, such as the illustrated manuscripts known as "Miao albums" (from which twenty color paintings are reproduced in this book). These were intended to educate Qing officials about various non-Han peoples so that they could govern these groups more effectively.Hostetler's groundbreaking account will interest anyone studying the history of the early modern period and colonialism.
本書最有意思的是導論,作者把清朝政府與同時代歐洲的殖民帝國相提並論,她期期要告訴我們,從近代早期(early modern)觀點來看,中國與歐洲的差異沒那麼大。我們老用近代歐洲的標準,去衡量前近代的中國,才是有問題的。特別是在本書的兩個主題:地圖學與民族誌的發展上,我...
