具體描述
Inserting China into the history of nineteenth-century colonialism, English Lessons explores the ways that Euroamerican imperial powers humiliated the Qing monarchy and disciplined the Qing polity in the wake of multi-power invasions of China in 1860 and 1900. Focusing on the processes by which Great Britain enacted a pedagogical project that was itself a form of colonization, James L. Hevia demonstrates how British actors instructed the Manchu-Chinese elite on "proper" behavior in a world dominated by multiple imperial powers. Their aim was to "bring China low" and make it a willing participant in British strategic goals in Asia. These lessons not only transformed the Qing dynasty, but ultimately contributed to its destruction.
Hevia analyzes British Foreign Office documents, diplomatic memoirs, auction house and museum records, nineteenth-century scholarly analyses of Chinese history and culture, campaign records, and photographs. He shows how Britain refigured its imperial project in China as a cultural endeavor by investigating the circulation of military loot in Europe, the creation of an art history of "things Chinese," the construction of a field of knowledge about China, and the Great Game rivalry between Britain, Russia, and Qing empire in Central Asia. Each of these elements not only influenced the colonial project, but also had a significant impact on creating a national consciousness in China.

讀後感
鲜血、头颅、尸体；看不清表情的联军士兵与清朝官员百姓；惨酷的处决现场与斑驳砖墙上残破的英文课广告——从这样一张极富有张力和象征性的照片出发，何伟亚（Hevia）开始了他的叙述。 与《怀柔远人》一样，何伟亚的第二部著作有一个漂亮的中译名——《英国的课业》（在读...
評分2009年12月29日，在乌鲁木齐某个行刑地点，随着一支针头的推进，英国籍毒犯什肯•阿克毛被处决。据说这是50年来第一个在中国大陆被处决的英国人。阿克毛之难逃一死，本在所有明眼人的意料之中。阿克毛的命运，在170年前已经注定。 多年以后，这个事件的象征意味将再次被人提...

評分“中华帝国只是一艘破旧不堪的旧船，只是幸运地有了几位谨慎的船长才使它在近150年期间没有沉没。它那巨大的躯壳使周围的邻国见了害怕。假如来了个无能之辈掌舵，那船上的纪律与安全就都完了。但船不会立刻沉没，它将像一个残骸那样到处漂流，然后在岸上撞得粉碎，并且永远不能...
評分这本书初读之时，确实令人感觉观点独到，方法新颖。但最近又翻了翻，逐渐意识到问题其实很大。本书虽然引用了很多的史料，尤其是西方人的报道，回忆录，外交文件等，但是所下的结论，很多是源自作者自己想当然的理解，并非根据资料的严格的批判分析得来的，尤其是对一些仪式与...

评分看到這書，時而想起在1822cafe的早晨，陽光，學術，輕鬆。。。
评分中國人早就知道這種lessons是什麼瞭
评分告訴我評分為什麼這麼低？史料詳實不說，對於looting始終遮遮掩掩欲說還羞的西人，這麼鞭闢入裏的一頓抖落著實值得尊敬。pedagogy的定位十分準確，近代侵華史終究是一堂英語課。
