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.
The environmental history of Mongolia and Manchuria is closely linked to the history of “identity and ideology” of Qing, and how Qing defined and ruled an empire with multiple ethnicities. (9)
评分本作内容与观点其他人已经说得很好本人不再赘述。随便说说关于新清史(2.0)作品自己的一些看法:不再局限于满汉究竟谁占据主导地位,而是向着更广阔的世界史和全球史迈进;边疆史方面,和一般认知上的“少民作乱”不同,“边地的汉化”才是帝国危机的体现
评分很多假设和原型(prototype)都有很重的、基于美国历史和传统的环境史的影子。当然不是说不能应用到中国的语境中,然而难免张冠李戴的错位感

本书讨论清朝北部边疆的环境、商业与族群变迁,是一部新清史+环境史+消费史+物质文化史的研究。要讨论的主题大概可以概括为:1.边疆在清朝是如何被朝廷定义的?2.奢侈品消费与边疆环境资源的消耗、商业贸易网络扩张的过程;3.边疆族群与地域的差别如何制度化。作者分别讨论了因...
评分边缘往往是了解整体结构的最佳切入点。这一点,不仅对于社会观察是如此,对历史研究来说也是成立的。东北地区(“满洲”)虽然是满清皇室的发祥地,但无论是在清帝国的版图上,还是在清史研究中,可说都处于边缘的位置,而这一地区的环境史,则更是边缘中的边缘;然而,美国学...
评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...
评分(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...
