The Silk Road is as iconic in world history as the Colossus of Rhodes or the Suez Canal. But what was it, exactly? It conjures a hazy image of a caravan of camels laden with silk on a dusty desert track, reaching from China to Rome. The reality was different, and far more interesting, as revealed in this new history. In The Silk Road, Valerie Hansen describes the remarkable archaeological finds that revolutionize our understanding of these trade routes. For millennia, key records remained hidden--often deliberately buried by bureaucrats for safe keeping. But the sands of the Taklamakan Desert have revealed fascinating material, sometimes preserved by illiterate locals who recycled official documents to make insoles for shoes or garments for the dead. Hansen explores seven oases along the road, from northwest China to Samarkand, where merchants, envoys, pilgrims, and travelers mixed in cosmopolitan communities, tolerant of religions from Buddhism to Zoroastrianism. Hansen notes that there was no single, continuous road, but a chain of markets that traded between east and west. China and the Roman Empire had very little direct trade. China's main partners were the peoples of modern-day Iran, whose tombs in China reveal much about their Zoroastrian beliefs. Hansen writes that silk was not the most important good on the road; paper, invented in China before Julius Caesar was born, had a bigger impact in Europe, while metals, spices, and glass were just as important as silk. Perhaps most significant of all was the road's transmission of ideas, technologies, and artistic motifs. The Silk Road is a fascinating story of archeological discovery, cultural transmission, and the intricate chains across Central Asia and Southeast Asia.

评分以絲路上的城市為敘述主軸,配上近代的探險家故事與發掘出的文書資料簡介,圖像資料不少,可以當個二手文獻綜述來讀。不過建議配合其他關於絲路的歷史書來讀,會更清楚絲路早期的歷史脈絡。
丝绸之路是一个源于西方的现代发明。虽然那些与它有关的历史、传说、遗迹一直存在着,但直至1877年德国历史学家李希霍芬提出“丝绸之路”这一概念之前,往来于这些亚洲腹地的沙漠绿洲商路上的人们并不知道这个词,当然更不可能使用它。这就像“亚洲”这一欧洲概念传入以前,中...

评分作者的主要观点要说起来是简单的:1)丝绸之路绝大部分不是长距离的跨区域贸易,而是地方性的,短距离的贸易。2)丝绸之路的贸易产品绝大多数是本地制造而非外来输入,少量外来品种往往与政治紧密联系。3)丝绸之路的贸易量总体是不大的,但中原王朝对西域管控较紧密时本地经济...
