具体描述
Since its first publication, Paul A. Cohen's Discovering History in China has occupied a singular place in American China scholarship. Translated into three East Asian languages, the volume has become essential to the study of China from the early nineteenth century to today.
Cohen critiques the work of leading postwar scholars and is especially adamant about not reading China through the lens of Western history. To this end, he uncovers the strong ethnocentric bias pervading the three major conceptual frameworks of American scholarship of the 1950s and 1960s: the impact-response, modernization, and imperialism approaches. In place of these, Cohen favors a "China-centered" approach in which historians understand Chinese history on its own terms, paying close attention to Chinese historical trajectories and Chinese perceptions of their problems, rather than a set of expectations derived from Western history. In an important new introduction, Cohen reflects on his fifty-year career as a historian of China and discusses major recent trends in the field. Although some of these developments challenge a narrowly conceived China-centered approach, insofar as they enable more balanced comparisons between China and the West and recast the Chinese and their history in more human, less exotic terms, they powerfully affirm the central thrust of Cohen's work.

读后感
在读这本书之前，多次尝试读汉学家的著作，但是都没有一本是能读到其一半的。往往是书的名字和它的选题很吸引，但是我的思维有点转不过来，还有文字味如嚼蜡，实在是很难坚持。读这本书是因为一位老师的推荐，而且老师还亲自把书借给我，我当然要认认真真的读啦！ 这本书我觉得...
评分 评分 评分「五十年代和六十年代美国史家解释鸦片战争（1839-1842）到义和团起义（1899-1900）这段历史时，在很大程度上借助了‘西方冲击’与‘中国回应’这两个概念。这一理论框架所依据的前提假设是：就19世纪的大部分情况而言，左右中国历史的最重要影响是与西方的对抗。这种提法又意...

这个话题的书竟然是97年出版的，不禁让人感叹我们现在所处的年代已经远不是21世纪初了。回忆回忆2000年人们在想什么也是挺有意思的。
评分Awesome! A histographical research, not history per se.
评分終於讀英文本了，雖然現在不贊同他的觀點，但是發現柯文的文筆極佳，簡直可以當做REVIEW ARTICLE的範本。
评分文笔真好
评分读起来会觉得理所当然，贯彻到实践中却非常难
