‘On the outside, [the foreigners] seem intractable, but inside they are cowardly. . . Although there have been a few ups-and-downs, the situation as a whole is under control.’
In October 1839, a few months after the Chinese Imperial Commissioner, Lin Zexu, dispatched these confident words to his emperor, a cabinet meeting in Windsor voted to fight Britain’s first Opium War (1839-42) with China. The conflict turned out to be rich in tragicomedy: in bureaucratic fumblings, military missteps, political opportunism and collaboration. Yet over the past 170 years, this strange tale of misunderstanding, incompetence and compromise has become the founding myth of modern Chinese nationalism: the start of China’s heroic struggle against a Western conspiracy to destroy the country with opium and gunboat diplomacy.
Beginning with the dramas of the war itself, Julia Lovell explores its causes and consequences and, through this larger narrative, interweaves the curious stories of opium’s promoters and attackers. The Opium War is both the story of modern China – starting from this first conflict with the West – and an analysis of the country’s contemporary self-image. It explores how China’s national myths mould its interactions with the outside world, how public memory is spun to serve the present; and how delusion and prejudice have bedevilled its relationship with the modern West.

讀後感
由于中英贸易逆差，英国向输入鸦片，以换回白银、茶叶、生丝，清政府的禁烟运动极大损害了英国的利益，导致了鸦片战争的爆发，由于清政府的腐败无能，以及技术的落后，中国在战争中一败涂地，最终签订了中国近代史上第一个不平等条约《南京条约》，从此中国进入半殖民地半封建...
評分优缺点非常明显的书。 先说优点，西方学者写的历史，和中国的视角很大程度是不一样。这本书吸收近几年了鸦片战争研究的学术成果，同时，这本书也不是只讲鸦片战争，期间还穿插了其他学术内容，比如这些年大火的新清史。最后还谈到了鸦片战争对中国民族主义以及西方黄祸论的塑造...
評分古今带路党的逻辑起点谬误 ———读《鸦片战争》有感 （律劳卑认为）中国的民众“没准会盼望这样一支军队的到来，来把他们从最专制的压迫制度下解放出来……可以肯定，把他们抓在我们的手里，是一个仁慈的行动，而且不是什么难事”。 ————哈哈，带路党看来历史悠久，古今几...
評分 評分该书堪称茅海建《天朝的崩溃》的姊妹篇。从英国的角度看鸦片战争，给了不同的视角，更完全区别于教科书中的描述，对于全面认识鸦片战争非常有帮助。 1.本书引用的史料非常丰富，当然，部分错误亦由译者进行了标注。对于《天朝的崩溃》也多有引用。 2.在鸦片战争之前，鸦片作为...
用戶評價
左，condescendent，缺乏曆史研究深度。
评分非常全麵詳細，信息量很大。尤其是對第一次鴉片戰爭的描寫，中英雙方的資料，官方的文件和普通民眾的迴憶都有。當時各種利益集團摻和在其中，到瞭現在教科書上直接簡化成瞭清政府和英國，就完全不是那麼迴事兒瞭
评分這書的評分偏低瞭吧……就憑大量的英國方麵的資料就值高分瞭，更彆說對許多研究潮流的展現瞭（比如生活史，內亞視角等等）
评分Another good discussion yesterday. Mostly on nationalism (and the education thereof) and cultural history. News come into attention the next day morning, of drug smuggling in Mexico, S. Korea's urge of Japanese compensation for comfort women, and the lowered US flag in Iraq. Main takeaway: the inventiveness of the late 200 yr Chinese history.
评分so called truth
