Joseph W. Esherick is Professor of Modern Chinese History at the University of California, San Diego. He is the author of The Origins of the Boxer Uprising (UC Press) and co-editor of The Chinese Cultural Revolution as History, among many books.
Ancestral Leaves follows one family through six hundred years of Chinese history and brings to life the epic narrative of the nation, from the fourteenth century through the Cultural Revolution. The lives of the Ye family—“Ye” means “leaf” in Chinese—reveal the human side of the large-scale events that shaped modern China: the vast and destructive rebellions of the nineteenth century, the economic growth and social transformation of the republican era, the Japanese invasion during World War II, and the Cultural Revolution under the Chinese Communists. Joseph W. Esherick draws from rare manuscripts and archival and oral history sources to provide an uncommonly personal and intimate glimpse into Chinese family history, illuminating the changing patterns of everyday life during rebellion, war, and revolution.

评分草翻。写给外国人的中国人故事。但还是有些我们自己找不到的细节,可惜不及细看。

评分这本书可读性挺强,可以用来做课本。不过有点不知what to make of it. 不过不管怎么样,手上如果有这么强的一组材料,还是值得写一本的。像叶家这样的生命力和韧性还是很可观的
评分可读性很强。不过“个人的历史”和“大历史”的断裂感蛮明显,貌似作者想实现的目标没太实现……
