The Ming dynasty was the last great Chinese dynasty before the Manchu conquest in 1644. During that time, China, not Europe, was the center of the world: the European voyages of exploration were searching not just for new lands but also for new trade routes to the Far East. In this book, Timothy Brook eloquently narrates the changing landscape of life over the three centuries of the Ming (1368-1644), when China was transformed from a closely administered agrarian realm into a place of commercial profits and intense competition for status.

The Confusions of Pleasure marks a significant departure from the conventional ways in which Chinese history has been written. Rather than recounting the Ming dynasty in a series of political events and philosophical achievements, it narrates this longue durée in terms of the habits and strains of everyday life. Peppered with stories of real people and their negotiations of a rapidly changing world, this book provides a new way of seeing the Ming dynasty that not only contributes to the scholarly understanding of the period but also provides an entertaining and accessible introduction to Chinese history for anyone.

《纵乐的困惑:明代的商业与文化》, 从一块明砖开始的描述 加拿大籍历史学家卜正民(Timothy Brook)对中国明代的商业与文化史描述,是从南京老城墙上的一块砖开始的,那砖上烧刻有当时窑工的姓字。但那块砖至今还镶嵌在那里,历史学家也无法取下来,于是就开始...

作为美国汉学大家孔飞力的学生,卜正民在研究路径、史料处理、叙述方法上,都颇得老师的真传,不禁让人想起《叫魂》一书。从本书来看,他试图摆脱对历史回顾的姿态,而是从当时一位籍籍无名的官员——张涛的角度,尝试着重新回到彼时的历史情景之中,全面的呈现“明代的商业与...

中国“传统的”历史叙述认为,明中叶的中国经历了一次“商业革命”。在新中国建立以后,明清“资本主义萌芽”问题为学界高度重视,和其他四个问题并称为历史研究的“五朵金花”,并最终被定为官方论断。尽管“资本主义萌芽”已经被认为是一个不符合历史真相的伪命题,然而我们...

This work is wittily woven together with the four seasons as four chapters, resonating with the rise and fall of the Ming dynasty. It is meant to be a cultural history of the dynasty. To this purpose, it adopts some historical people’s perspective(Dramatis...

问世间情为何物。马克思主义者的学术巅峰就是Tim brooke了

读来大爽,简直茅塞顿开。从Nostalgic scholar到excluded merchant到benefited gentry,不同的视野构成一幅较为完整的明朝经济图像。只是徽商一会儿因为这个被鄙视,一会儿因为那个被鄙视。。。真是残念。。。
