中國人和日本人是怎麼變“黃”的。。
評分中國人和日本人是怎麼變“黃”的。。
評分行文不太能吸引人,但內容很有學術價值
評分主要講“黃種人”、“濛古人種”的概念在近代是如何被發明並且安在東亞(中日)之上的。作者的語言功底不錯,史料相當紮實。如果最後一章關於中國、日本如何接受黃種人觀念的部分能繼續擴展一下,那就更好瞭。這本書讀起來有《東方學》的感覺。
評分非常有趣也有價值。但是缺少本土材料:東亞人怎樣自認為是一體並且是黃種人也是值得探討的議題。同樣值得深入探討的是人種意義上的yellow和Asian之間的聯係,以及yellow怎樣在西方和東亞之外的地區(比如印度)用來定義自己和他者。
Michael Keevak is a professor in the Department of Foreign Languages at National Taiwan University. His books include "Sexual Shakespeare," "The Pretended Asian," and "The Story of a Stele".
In their earliest encounters with Asia, Europeans almost uniformly characterized the people of China and Japan as white. This was a means of describing their wealth and sophistication, their willingness to trade with the West, and their presumed capacity to become Christianized. But by the end of the seventeenth century the category of whiteness was reserved for Europeans only. When and how did Asians become 'yellow' in the Western imagination? Looking at the history of racial thinking, "Becoming Yellow" explores the notion of yellowness and shows that this label originated not in early travel texts or objective descriptions, but in the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century scientific discourses on race. From the walls of an ancient Egyptian tomb, which depicted people of varying skin tones including yellow, to the phrase 'yellow peril' at the beginning of the twentieth century in Europe and America, Michael Keevak follows the development of perceptions about race and human difference. He indicates that the conceptual relationship between East Asians and yellow skin did not begin in Chinese culture or Western readings of East Asian cultural symbols, but in anthropological and medical records that described variations in skin color. Eighteenth-century taxonomers such as Carl Linnaeus, as well as Victorian scientists and early anthropologists, assigned colors to all racial groups, and once East Asians were lumped with members of the Mongolian race, they began to be considered yellow. Demonstrating how a racial distinction took root in Europe and traveled internationally, "Becoming Yellow" weaves together multiple narratives to tell the complex history of a problematic term.
对这本书的期待来自于它的副标题“亚洲种族思维简史”,但是事实上这本书跟亚洲种族的思维特性没有太多描写,更多的可称为是一本人类学作品。倒也大开眼界,所以对我来说,这本书还行,但是没到可以推广的地步。 第一点收获很有趣,原来我们中国人并不是一直被认为...
評分从小我们耳熟能详,人分三种:白人、黑人,黄种人。我们就是黄种人。 老师这么讲,书中这么说,甚至我现在还能记得起小学五年级《地理》课发的地图册中,三种人地理分布的样子。 我们歌中不也这样唱吗?“……黑眼睛黑头发黄皮肤,永永远远是龙的传人……” 这好像是确信无...
評分中国人属于黄种人,为什么有很多皮肤白皙嫩的男女?华夏历史为什么历来崇尚洁白与长大的外形?换句话说,老祖宗到底是崇洋媚外一如今天崇尚混血妆、混血颜、网红脸,还是根本就是崇拜本民族的俊男美女外形? 回答这个问题之前,我们必须知道华夏的祖先及其上古时期世代通婚的古代...
評分人类起源何处仍无定论,目前较多认同的说法是起源于非洲。既然有共同的祖先,那么在最初,人的肤色绝不会是黑白黄这么分明,那肤色的变化就是后来的事。一个说法是,在人类走出非洲分布到地球各地后,由于纬度、海拔等地理上的原因造成气候、日照上的差异,从而带来了肤色上的区别。大...
