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.
本作內容與觀點其他人已經說得很好本人不再贅述。隨便說說關於新清史(2.0)作品自己的一些看法:不再局限於滿漢究竟誰占據主導地位,而是嚮著更廣闊的世界史和全球史邁進;邊疆史方麵,和一般認知上的“少民作亂”不同,“邊地的漢化”纔是帝國危機的體現
評分The environmental history of Mongolia and Manchuria is closely linked to the history of “identity and ideology” of Qing, and how Qing defined and ruled an empire with multiple ethnicities. (9)
評分選題很好!
評分滿清對本民族被漢化作齣的無用功一種。
評分“自然”是清代發明的概念,應該思考之後的研究還能怎麼由此發展
本书讨论清朝北部边疆的环境、商业与族群变迁,是一部新清史+环境史+消费史+物质文化史的研究。要讨论的主题大概可以概括为:1.边疆在清朝是如何被朝廷定义的?2.奢侈品消费与边疆环境资源的消耗、商业贸易网络扩张的过程;3.边疆族群与地域的差别如何制度化。作者分别讨论了因...
評分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 評分本书利用满文、蒙文和汉文文献,提供了一个篇幅紧凑却非常详尽的研究。本书考察了内亚的素朴边疆与中国的都市生活的关系,讲述了一个由市场驱动的精英阶层的消费时尚,奢侈品的消费混杂着家园想象。 ——欧立德(哈佛大学历史学教授) 汉人能穿毛皮吗 在清帝国,服饰、物质文化...
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...
