作者自己也承认完全批判西方视角太过偏激。实际上我觉得他自我批判得还不够,西方视角哪仅仅是“另一视角,”所谓的中国本土视角有吗?除了马克思那一套西方的,本土是没有所谓史观的,大多都在堆砌材料。中国传统的史学,无非帝王将相,品评人物,叹叹兴亡。以今天本土史家的刻苦程度和视野范围,追赶西方学者还来不及,哪里轮的上真正形成中国自己的史学流派。
评分结尾读的不甚耐烦,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。
评分入门必读。

评分I am not authorized to comment on this "favorite of nervous doctoral candidates on the eve of their oral exams" anyway...
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.
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...
评分近日读柯文的这本书(02年增订本),有很多并不成系统的想法,其中一些是强化了过去的看法,另外一些则是新的。该书系统批判总结了美国上个世纪80年代之前的中国史研究,包括冲击——回应模式、传统——近代模式以及帝国主义模式,我无意在这重复归纳作者的观点,也没那个全...
评分 评分几点说明: 1,中国中心观属动态观点,强调历史发展中对立事物之间相互作用/相互渗透的现象。 2,历史描绘的精细化使得“区分”的重要性得到彰显,而“综合”却被低估。 3,中国中心观在美国崛起事实上采用了“内部取向”的研究策略。 研究中国近代史时一改之前将西方作为主体...
评分“他们无法表述自己;他们必须被别人表述。”作为一个中国人读了一个美国历史学家写得《在中国发现历史——中国中心观在美国的兴起》,上面那句话最先蹦入我的脑海中。这句话出自马克思的《路易波拿巴的雾月十八》,萨义德将其引用,放在自己《东方学》一书的开头。马克思似乎...
