Until 300 years ago, the Chinese considered Taiwan a "land beyond the seas," a "ball of mud" inhabited by "naked and tattooed savages." The incorporation of this island into the Qing empire in the seventeenth century and its evolution into a province by the late nineteenth century involved not only a reconsideration of imperial geography but also a reconceptualization of the Chinese domain. The annexation of Taiwan was only one incident in the much larger phenomenon of Qing expansionism into frontier areas that resulted in a doubling of the area controlled from Beijing and the creation of a multi-ethnic polity. The author argues that travelers' accounts and pictures of frontiers such as Taiwan led to a change in the imagined geography of the empire. In representing distant lands and ethnically diverse peoples of the frontiers to audiences in China proper, these works transformed places once considered non-Chinese into familiar parts of the empire and thereby helped to naturalize Qing expansionism.

By viewing Taiwan-China relations as a product of the history of Qing expansionism, the author contributes to our understanding of current political events in the region.

最讨厌为表达观点而罗织材料的“学术”了。good material and analysis; but the conclusion is a little bit funny...the book is all good except the awkward political agenda in it.

从旅行志对台湾描述由“野蛮”到“文明”的转向出发,提出了将清朝对台湾的扩张也视为一种imperialism的观点。这个观点否认了imperialism的西方性,也提出了如何重新思考台湾历史和边疆的问题。结尾对现实政治的思考很有趣但细节有待商榷。
