Japan was the only non-Western nation to industrialize before 1900 and its leap into the modern era has stimulated vigorous debates among historians and social scientists. In an innovative discussion that posits the importance of physical well-being as a key indicator of living standards, Susan B. Hanley considers daily life in the three centuries leading up to the modern era in Japan. She concludes that people lived much better than has been previously understood - at levels equal or superior to their Western contemporaries. She goes on to illustrate how this high level of physical well-being had important consequences for Japan's ability to industrialize rapidly and for the comparatively smooth transition to a modern, industrial society. While others have used income levels to conclude that the Japanese household was relatively poor in those centuries, Hanley examines the material culture - food, sanitation, housing, and transportation. How did ordinary people conserve the limited resources available in this small island country? What foods made up the daily diet and how were they prepared? How were human wastes disposed of? How long did people live? Hanley answers all these questions and more in an accessible style and with frequent comparisons with Western lifestyles. Her methods allow for cross-cultural comparisons between Japan and the West as well as Japan and the rest of Asia. They will be useful to anyone interested in the effects of modernization on daily life.

A problematic book with many contestable assertions.
评分读的是英文版,读完后搜了才发现有中文版????,刚读完有种学到了不少知识的感觉,但回想起来就有种先定论乃至“大分流”的既视感,很多地方说服力不够,许多推论过于武断:许多材料论述都会落到“日本19世纪前就已经不比欧美城市差乃至更好”的落脚点,但问题在于这些所谓的好是自身传统的问题还是大环境的限制,乃至于认为东亚本身具有一定的现代性但东亚还是没能演化成现代,这也是一个很大的问题。
评分奇差無比

评分————— 江户时代的日本比我们想象中要发达。 日本在明治维新前,不同于我们的刻板印象是一个贫困落后的岛屿,而是一个前现代、资本主义经济开始发展、西方科技传入的社会。 日本在18世纪中期,就有翻译西方物理学、医学的著作了,而17世纪已经有了关孝和这样子的数学家,他...

评分初到日本的游客如我,总是很容易生出很多感慨。日本的整洁、有序、平和、精致等等,和中国大陆形成非常鲜明的差异。对于一个看惯各种“没素质”行为的人,日本社会简直可以作为我们追求的终极目标。甚至相比欧美国家,日本在城市面貌和市民风气上领先甚多。 见的多了,于是便...
