What is lost in translation may be a war, a world, a way of life. A unique look into the nineteenth-century clash of empires from both sides of the earthshaking encounter, this book reveals the connections between international law, modern warfare, and comparative grammar--and their influence on the shaping of the modern world in Eastern and Western terms.
The Clash of Empires brings to light the cultural legacy of sovereign thinking that emerged in the course of the violent meetings between the British Empire and the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911). Lydia Liu demonstrates how the collision of imperial will and competing interests, rather than the civilizational attributes of existing nations and cultures, led to the invention of "China," "the East," "the West," and the modern notion of "the world" in recent history. Drawing on her archival research and comparative analyses of English--and Chinese--language texts, as well as their respective translations, she explores how the rhetoric of barbarity and civilization, friend and enemy, and discourses on sovereign rights, injury, and dignity were a central part of British imperial warfare. Exposing the military and philological--and almost always translingual--nature of the clash of empires, this book provides a startlingly new interpretation of modern imperial history.
Lydia H. Liu is Helmut F. Stern Professor of Chinese Studies at the University of Michigan.

中国近代史研究之所以是一门显学,那是由于古老的中国文明与西方文明首次碰撞的结果,古与今,新与旧,传统与现代,进步与落后,世界史上两个文明遭遇之后的所有可能性都在这里汇聚,自然能吸引众多研究者的兴趣。但稍微了解一下近些年近代史研究方面的著作就会发现,尽管近代...
評分刘禾在她的上一本中文著作《跨语际实践》中批判了翻译行为所预设的等值性,把以往被人们当作中介的翻译提高到更重要的地位上来讨论。有书评反驳说中国的跨文化交流早就有了,刘禾虚张声势;与现代西方思想对汉语的影响相比,古代佛经对汉语的影响可能更大。 但是,这个批评恰恰...
評分这本书的内容是关于“19世纪以来围绕主权想象的跨文化知识传统和话语政治”。与很多近代史研究的著作不同,它的关注点放在了语言等表意符号上的政治碰撞——“跨语际”的主权想象和冲突上面。 该书所着重分析的几个符号事件,如衍指符号“夷/i/barbarian”的创造、《新约全书...

評分刘禾的书研究的是符号在跨语言的过程中发生变化,以观察帝国的碰撞,具体而言是近代中西方的冲突历史。现在我主要读了第一、二、三章。 刘禾说这本书是她在翻阅大量鸦片战争时期的外交公文时获得的灵感。在第二三章中,她选择了一个汉字中的“夷”作为论点,其实用她的方法论,...
