"Like everything else written by Jonathan Spence, The Chan's Great Continent is an absolute must-read for anyone interested in China. Spence is one of the greatest Sinologists of our time, and his work is both authoritative and highly readable." — Los Angeles Times Book Review China has transfixed the West since the earliest contacts between these civilizations. With his characteristic elegance and insight, Jonathan Spence explores how the West has understood China over seven centuries. Ranging from Marco Polo's own depiction of China and the mighty Khan, Kublai, in the 1270s to the China sightings of three twentieth-century writers of acknowledged genius-Kafka, Borges, and Calvino-Spence conveys Western thought on China through a remarkable array of expression. Peopling Spence's account are Iberian adventurers, Enlightenment thinkers, spinners of the dreamy cult of Chinoiserie, and American observers such as Bret Harte, Mark Twain, Ezra Pound, and Eugene O'Neill. Taken together, these China sightings tell us as much about the self-image of the West as about China. "Wonderful. . . . Spence brilliantly demonstrates [how] generation after generation of Westerners [have] asked themselves, 'What is it . . . that held this astonishing, diverse, and immensely populous land together?' "-- New York Times Book Review

评分有意思的书
昨天到今天,读了大半本《大汗之国——西方眼中的中国》。书中多数人名是我不认识也不了解的,由最有名的马可·波罗开始,各个时代各种传教士、旅行家、小说家对中国的印象与评价。他们关于中国的著作曾在西方有很大的影响力,虽说一些作家小说家根本没有到过中国。他们或多或...
评分张耐冬/文 据说钱钟书先生在回绝一位读了他的书之后想要登门拜访的读者时说:如果你吃了一只鸡蛋觉得味美,何必要认识那只下蛋的鸡呢?对 于单独的个体来说,受其惠确实不必识其人,个人也有选择不被认识的自由。而且,在“是否应该被认识”之外,还有“是否能够被认识”...
评分史景迁先生的这本书虽然篇幅并不长,内容却很充实。在书中,史景迁细数了从第一位以欧洲语言写下讨论中国人专著的圣方济修会的威廉·鲁不鲁乞,到当代的尼克松、基辛格等人对中国的看法变迁。其中西方关于中国的很多想象,在今人看来,或许都不是当时中国真实的样貌,但就是这...
评分在香港中文大学的推荐书单中第一次看到《大汉之国》的名字。作者史景迁,只看到他这么有中国味道的名字很难想象作者是地道的美国历史学家。他的中文名字是中国史学家房兆楹为他取的,意为治史就要敬仰司马迁。 一直以来都对境外对的学者撰写的关于中国的书籍很感兴趣。他们的...
