The Chinese in America pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
In an epic story that spans 150 years and continues to the present day, Iris Chang tells of a people’s search for a better life—the determination of the Chinese to forge an identity and a destiny in a strange land and, often against great obstacles, to find success. She chronicles the many accomplishments in America of Chinese immigrants and their descendents: building the infrastructure of their adopted country, fighting racist and exclusionary laws, walking the racial tightrope between black and white, contributing to major scientific and technological advances, expanding the literary canon, and influencing the way we think about racial and ethnic groups. Interweaving political, social, economic, and cultural history, as well as the stories of individuals, Chang offers a bracing view not only of what it means to be Chinese American, but also of what it is to be American.
客觀,入木三分的華人移民史。值得一讀
評分“Perhaps one day we will rediscover a basic truth - that while identity may be shaped and exploited by the powerful, its essence belongs, ultimately, to the individual.”

評分將近500頁,從1834年第一位踏上美國土地(AFONG MOY,在紐約市的博物館作為“文化展品”)的中國女性,曆經三次移民大潮,19世紀中期的淘金熱,20世紀6,70年代港颱留學熱,到80年代以後大陸齣國熱。早期華人多受排斥歧視,種種不公正待遇與壓迫,包括著名的排華法案,胼手胝足掙紮求存,修TRANCONTINENTAL RAILWAY時吃苦耐勞,足智多謀,工作進度極快,還組織過罷工,遠非五四文學裏所描述的麻木愚弱的國民形象。從序言裏的PERPETUAL STRANGERS ON BOTH SHORES,到後記裏提問:WHAT IS RACIAL IDENTITY? WHO GETS TO DECIDE IT?作為校友,嚮張純如的努力和思考緻敬
評分印象最深的是最早照片是一批華人勞工擠在小船裏到達美國,最近的照片是一傢三個華人小孩都是哈佛本科班上的第一名
1840移民潮开始,本以为海外生活会越来越美好,没想到华人在美遭受各种不公平对待。1882年排华甚至被写进法规,戊戌年李鸿章访美甚至绕到加拿大而不敢经过西部加州,无力申辩。直到1943年才废止,且限制移民配额。国家强大,国人才不会遭受欺凌!谢谢作者搜集整理这些资料,让...

評分有的书,读着读着就十分有翻译成中文介绍到中文世界的冲动。去年介绍过的Chinese Lessons是一本,这里又是一本。 写《南京大屠杀》的那位华裔女作家张纯如(Iris Chang),一生写过三本书。第一本是钱学森的传记,第二本是名满天下的《南京大屠杀》,第三本也就是最后一本,知...
