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.

評分在前往北京的路上,我时断时续地读着美国人周锡瑞的《叶:百年动荡中的一个中国家庭》。 车窗外是华北的初秋天气,田地里墨绿浓现,预示着即将到来的收获。平坦宽阔的公路已把那些华北平原的小村庄联结到一起,沿途不时出现的玻璃幕墙、金属框架厂房。这是一次出...

评分這本書可讀性挺強,可以用來做課本。不過有點不知what to make of it. 不過不管怎麼樣,手上如果有這麼強的一組材料,還是值得寫一本的。像葉傢這樣的生命力和韌性還是很可觀的
