The Knowledge of Nature and the Nature of Knowledge in Early Modern Japan pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
Between the early seventeenth and the mid-nineteenth century, the field of natural history in Japan separated itself from the discipline of medicine, produced knowledge that questioned the traditional religious and philosophical understandings of the world, developed into a system (called honzogaku) that rivaled Western science in complexity—and then seemingly disappeared. Or did it? In The Knowledge of Nature and the Nature of Knowledge in Early Modern Japan, Federico Marcon recounts how Japanese scholars developed a sophisticated discipline of natural history analogous to Europe’s but created independently, without direct influence, and argues convincingly that Japanese natural history succumbed to Western science not because of suppression and substitution, as scholars traditionally have contended, but by adaptation and transformation.
The first book-length English-language study devoted to the important field of honzogaku, The Knowledge of Nature and the Nature of Knowledge in Early Modern Japan will be an essential text for historians of Japanese and East Asian science, and a fascinating read for anyone interested in the development of science in the early modern era.
Federico Marcon is assistant professor of Japanese history in the Department of History and the Department of East Asian Studies at Princeton University.
非常优雅而游刃有余的科学史著作,突出了日本本草学历史的复杂性,而且利用阿多诺的理论来阐述有一种画龙点睛的效果。
评分业余的理论,借来的方法。理学谈不深。讲日本的材料很丰富有意思。不知道研究日本的学者会不会也觉得还行。
评分理论丰富,但是结论不太有新意
评分a transnational production of knowledge; 章節安排稍微有種頭重腳輕的感覺..
评分well organized and beautifully written。不过是不是占了英语圈没有类似主题著作的便宜感觉主要是汇总了日本材料。。。做入门参考不错
