In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, booming demand for natural resources transformed China and its frontiers. Historians of China have described this process in stark terms: pristine borderlands became breadbaskets. Yet Manchu and Mongolian archives reveal a different story. Well before homesteaders arrived, wild objects from the far north became part of elite fashion, and unprecedented consumption had exhausted the region's most precious resources.
In A World Trimmed with Fur, Jonathan Schlesinger uses these diverse archives to reveal how Qing rule witnessed not the destruction of unspoiled environments, but their invention. Qing frontiers were never pristine in the nineteenth century—pearlers had stripped riverbeds of mussels, mushroom pickers had uprooted the steppe, and fur-bearing animals had disappeared from the forest. In response, the court turned to "purification;" it registered and arrested poachers, reformed territorial rule, and redefined the boundary between the pristine and the corrupted. Schlesinger's resulting analysis provides a framework for rethinking the global invention of nature.
Jonathan Schlesinger is Assistant Professor of History at Indiana University.
視角還蠻新穎的,思路也很清晰。物質文化、市場、邊疆、環境史的多角度+多語言史料的運用,最終融會到清代政治問題,確實是新清史2.0的代錶作之一吧。
評分視野宏大,文筆流暢,文化建構、社會製度和環境生態幾個麵嚮結閤得很好

評分東北人愛貂,古而有之。讀此書腦中浮現的是康熙王朝裏老年陳道明一身貂裝,俯瞰大好河山。
評分原本以為是一本有關毛皮捕獵和貿易的書,但毛皮隻占三分之一,還有一些關於人參、東北珍珠和濛古口蘑的論述。側重環境生態構建,寫作輕巧,但也有淺嘗輒止之感。
边缘往往是了解整体结构的最佳切入点。这一点,不仅对于社会观察是如此,对历史研究来说也是成立的。东北地区(“满洲”)虽然是满清皇室的发祥地,但无论是在清帝国的版图上,还是在清史研究中,可说都处于边缘的位置,而这一地区的环境史,则更是边缘中的边缘;然而,美国学...
評分 評分(为什么我要给读书笔记起个大象公会式的哗众名字...) 很易读有趣的一本书。Schlesinger围绕清朝三种珍贵货物(东珠、口蘑、海毛皮)的采集生产、贸易运输及管理控制等,来讨论多民族帝国的统治,边境的确立与控制,并由此切入相关环境危机及环境管理讨论。 我最感兴趣的部分...
評分《帝国之裘》是一部很有趣的作品,至少于我而言是这样的,无论是这本书简介里提及的新清史还是环境史,抑或是身为一名西方汉学家的作者本身,在此之前我都没有了解,尤其是对于环境史这个领域,我似乎从来没有想过以这个领域作为切入点去解读一段历史,可以说这本书给了我一种...
