"Like everything else written by Jonathan Spence, The Chan's Great Continent is an absolute must-read for anyone interested in China. Spence is one of the greatest Sinologists of our time, and his work is both authoritative and highly readable." — Los Angeles Times Book Review China has transfixed the West since the earliest contacts between these civilizations. With his characteristic elegance and insight, Jonathan Spence explores how the West has understood China over seven centuries. Ranging from Marco Polo's own depiction of China and the mighty Khan, Kublai, in the 1270s to the China sightings of three twentieth-century writers of acknowledged genius-Kafka, Borges, and Calvino-Spence conveys Western thought on China through a remarkable array of expression. Peopling Spence's account are Iberian adventurers, Enlightenment thinkers, spinners of the dreamy cult of Chinoiserie, and American observers such as Bret Harte, Mark Twain, Ezra Pound, and Eugene O'Neill. Taken together, these China sightings tell us as much about the self-image of the West as about China. "Wonderful. . . . Spence brilliantly demonstrates [how] generation after generation of Westerners [have] asked themselves, 'What is it . . . that held this astonishing, diverse, and immensely populous land together?' "-- New York Times Book Review

評分史先生好文筆啊
“在谈论中国的小说中,最具美学成就的三部,都完成于二十世纪,分别为卡夫卡的《中国长城》(),博尔赫斯的《曲径分岔的花园》(),和卡尔维诺的《看不见的城市》()。但是三本小说却完成于不同时段,彼此间隔了大约二十五年,一本在一战时期,一本在二战时期,一本在1970...
評分史景迁,是一位中国史学前辈房兆楹给他取的。主要作品都是关于清代的。 对于中华民族人民的不同视角的看法,任然带有殖民心态与说不清道不明的迷思,三分猎奇、三分轻蔑、三分怜悯,还有一分“非我族类”的敌意。 从马可波罗开始,西方社会开始认知中国,到一战期间的10万劳工...
評分以马可波罗为代表的一些作家、商人、士兵、传教士、传教士家属在机缘巧合下来到中国,他们用自己的亲身经历和臆想对中国的风土人情、经济、社会制度、军事等进行了一番描述。他们自己承认,他们的描述中很多是虚构和夸张的,有些只是为了表达对自己国家的一些制度和规则的不满...
