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.
“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

評分很多假設和原型(prototype)都有很重的、基於美國曆史和傳統的環境史的影子。當然不是說不能應用到中國的語境中,然而難免張冠李戴的錯位感
(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...
評分无论国内抑或海外,对清帝国的研究,总是会随着研究视角的转变会而呈现出不同的样貌。从“冲击-反应”模式到“在中国发现历史”,再到“新清史”,学者们愈发从清朝本身看待问题,并进而得出了许多与常见的看法或刻板印象不同的观点;而从文明史观到社会史观、全球史观,再到生...
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 評分本书是印第安纳大学副教授谢健的新作,作为欧立德教授的学生,作者继承了新清史研究的思路,又结合时下热门的环境史学方法,以宏观的全球史视角,结合对清代中国三个小地域的分析,为我们阐述1760-1830年间满洲、蒙古地区的环境变迁。 提到东北和蒙古,立刻想到的,或许是辽阔...
