结尾读的不甚耐烦,只想快点去读作者提到的那些参考书和论文。最后几页倒是感慨于中国史学家坚持局外人和局内人两分法己见的“irony of ironies”,觉得悲凉。

Paul A. Cohen is Wasserman Professor of Asian Studies and History Emeritus at Wellesley College and an associate at the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies, Harvard University. His most recent book is Speaking to History: The Story of King Goujian in Twentieth-Century China.
Since its first publication, Paul A. Cohen's Discovering History in China has occupied a singular place in American China scholarship. Translated into three East Asian languages, the volume has become essential to the study of China from the early nineteenth century to today.
Cohen critiques the work of leading postwar scholars and is especially adamant about not reading China through the lens of Western history. To this end, he uncovers the strong ethnocentric bias pervading the three major conceptual frameworks of American scholarship of the 1950s and 1960s: the impact-response, modernization, and imperialism approaches. In place of these, Cohen favors a "China-centered" approach in which historians understand Chinese history on its own terms, paying close attention to Chinese historical trajectories and Chinese perceptions of their problems, rather than a set of expectations derived from Western history. In an important new introduction, Cohen reflects on his fifty-year career as a historian of China and discusses major recent trends in the field. Although some of these developments challenge a narrowly conceived China-centered approach, insofar as they enable more balanced comparisons between China and the West and recast the Chinese and their history in more human, less exotic terms, they powerfully affirm the central thrust of Cohen's work.
在读这本书之前,多次尝试读汉学家的著作,但是都没有一本是能读到其一半的。往往是书的名字和它的选题很吸引,但是我的思维有点转不过来,还有文字味如嚼蜡,实在是很难坚持。读这本书是因为一位老师的推荐,而且老师还亲自把书借给我,我当然要认认真真的读啦! 这本书我觉得...
评分一本系统反思美国的中国史研究特别是中国近代史研究的书,作者在批评了冲击—回应模式、现代化模式和帝国主义模式之后,提出应该改变这三种模式所共有的缺陷,就是西方中心观的中国史研究,而应该采取中国中心观。换言之,从“局外人”的视角向“局内人”转变。 先放下中国中心...
评分这本书的封面有一张插图,让我印象深刻。那是一个世界地图的东半球平面图,中国赫然在图画的中间(大约),而图画四周是几个电脑制成的大箭头、小箭头、粗箭头和细箭头,它们的尖端都指向了中国的腹地(确切的讲,我觉得它们指向的是东南亚海域,但是作图者的原本的想法肯定是...
评分柯文的《在中国发现历史》一书,在中国近代史研究领域中刮起了范式革命的旋风,柯文在其书中批判了在美国学界研究中国近代史比较流行的几种范式,其中主要的有:冲击——回应模式、传统——现代模式以及帝国主义模式,这几种模式的主要缺陷在于容易使中国近代史的研究陷入西方...
