图书描述

This comprehensive history of the northern frontier of China through the first millennium B.C. details the formation of two increasingly distinct cultural areas: the sedentary Chinese and the northern nomads. Nicola Di Cosmo explores the tensions existing between these two worlds as they became progressively more polarized, with the eventual creation of the nomadic Hsiung-nu empire in the north, and of the Chinese empire in the south. Di Cosmo investigates the origins of the antagonism between early China and its "barbarian" neighbors.

著者简介

Nicola Di Cosmo received his Ph.D. from the Department of Uralic and Altaic Studies (now Central Eurasian Studies) at Indiana University in 1991, and held research and teaching positions at the University of Cambridge, Harvard University, and the University of Canterbury (New Zealand) before joining the Institute for Advanced Study in 2003. His main field of research is the history of the relations between China and Inner Asia from prehistory to the modern period. Within that broad area he has published on the early history of China's relations with steppe nomads (e.g., Ancient China and Its Enemies: The Rise of Nomadic Powers in East Asian History, 2002) and on Mongol and Manchu history (e.g., Manchu-Mongol Relations on the Eve of the Qing Conquest, 2003), and he has edited several books, including Military Culture in Imperial China, 2009, and The Cambridge History of Inner Asia, 2009. He is currently working on questions of climate change at the time of the Mongol empire, the political thought of the early Manchus, and commercial relations in northeast Asia on the eve of the Qing conquest.

Indiana University, Ph.D. 1991; University of Cambridge, Research Fellow 1989–92; Indiana University, Visiting Lecturer and Rockefeller Fellow 1992–93; Harvard University, Assistant Professor 1993–97, Associate Professor 1998–99; University of Canterbury, Senior Lecturer 1999–2003; Institute for Advanced Study, Member 1999, Luce Foundation Professor in East Asian Studies 2003–

狄宇宙在第一部分利用了大量考古学资料来分析早期半游牧,游牧文化的源起和简单的发展阶段,塞伊玛·图尔宾诺文化给中国北方地区的强烈影响。作者对于长城的作用给了新的解释。赵燕秦的长城的进攻属性同样强烈,某些意义上是一种向北方扩张的工具,长城周围居住大量非华夏的民族人群。这几国代表了中原对于北方资源的利用和掌控的趋向。其后秦朝的长城同样具有类似的作用。其后作者探讨了匈奴作为一个草原帝国的突然兴起给汉朝带来的强烈震撼。其中有趣的是作者认为司马迁的描述带有民族志和人类学的色彩,即一种较为平等的眼光去看待匈奴社会,以及华夏之外的世界,一种经验主义的描述传统有别于之前的神话色彩的浓厚。有些观点不是独创,拉铁摩尔等人的学说在其中也有频繁出现,不过这也很正常。

评分

写《干戈之影》时作为参考书读的,尤其细读了早期北方人群与中国人关系那部分。

评分

汉学名家狄宇宙对中国北疆历史的研究,也是对草原游牧与内陆汉文化之间的攻/防双重性的讨论,比如将长城作为攻击的存在置于讨论之中,跳出了以往常见的有关游牧和防御的视角,辅以扎实的有关长城建造的考古资料以及其他可谓浩瀚的印证。在我看来最大的意义是作者跳出了“汉本位”的立场,以世界的眼光将这段中国古代史还原到了世界史中进行审视。

读后感

总而言之,这本书强调的结论是,中原农业文明和游牧文明的界限并非天然不可逾越,两者并非是必然的死敌,两者的界限是人为的 春秋以前的华夏和蛮夷,中原和游牧两者往往何二为一,界限并不清楚。进入春秋后,中原各国出于尊王攘夷争夺当时国际霸权的需要,经常性的丑化诋毁和...
