Placing meanings of health and disease at the center of modern Chinese consciousness, Ruth Rogaski reveals how hygiene became a crucial element in the formulation of Chinese modernity in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Rogaski focuses on multiple manifestations across time of a single Chinese concept, weisheng—which has been rendered into English as "hygiene," "sanitary," "health," or "public health"—as it emerged in the complex treaty-port environment of Tianjin. Before the late nineteenth century, weisheng was associated with diverse regimens of diet, meditation, and self-medication. Hygienic Modernity reveals how meanings of weisheng, with the arrival of violent imperialism, shifted from Chinese cosmology to encompass such ideas as national sovereignty, laboratory knowledge, the cleanliness of bodies, and the fitness of races: categories in which the Chinese were often deemed lacking by foreign observers and Chinese elites alike.
Ruth Rogaski is Associate Professor of History at Vanderbilt University.
初看觉得只是discourse analysis,觉得没劲儿而罗嗦;看到后来觉得一些小故事有趣,且启发人对于“卫生”观念在个人生活中地位的思考。“卫生”作为现代性的重要一环,如何通过帝国主义引进,又如何在传教士、医师、政府、知识分子等社会精英的利用与争辩中,成为了健康之宝、救国之道、富强法门和统治工具。值得进一步思考的是,一个discourse如何成为我们现代人心中根深蒂固、仿佛是与生俱来般的观念(notion/idea)、习惯乃至生活方式。

为了写grant proposal和备战prelims,最近处于几乎每天一本书的狂读状态。本来读到历史学文献会特别头疼,因为我历史、地理常识都极其欠缺,这类书不仅往往有点枯燥还会充斥着我所不熟悉的各种名词,让我本来就慢到不行的英文阅读更慢。直到读到这本书超high, 感觉可能算是历史...
评分读杨念群《再造病人》时看到书注释中引用了罗芙芸的《卫生的现代性》,就找来看。 两者相较有相似之处:都基于福柯的身体政治,结合医疗卫生和社会生活来理解20世纪初的中国。但由于两位作者的东西方视角不同,在相异之处也各自有亮点。 1.《再造病人》聚焦传教史,西医东传是...
