In 221 bc the First Emperor of Qin unified the lands that would become the heart of a Chinese empire. Though forged by conquest, this vast domain depended for its political survival on a fundamental reshaping of Chinese culture. With this informative book, we are present at the creation of an ancient imperial order whose major features would endure for two millennia. The Qin and Han constitute the 'classical period' of Chinese history - a role played by the Greeks and Romans in the West. Mark Edward Lewis highlights the key challenges faced by the court officials and scholars who set about governing an empire of such scale and diversity of people. He traces the drastic measures taken to transcend, without eliminating, these regional differences: the invention of the emperor as the divine embodiment of the state; the establishment of a common script for communication and a state-sponsored canon for the propagation of Confucian ideals; the flourishing of the great families, whose domination of local society rested on wealth, landholding, and elaborate kinship structures; the demilitarization of the interior; and the impact of non-Chinese warrior-nomads in setting the boundaries of an emerging Chinese identity. The first of a six-volume series on the history of imperial China, "The Early Chinese Empires" illuminates many formative events in China's long history of imperialism - events whose residual influence can still be discerned today.

評分卜正民在研究中国历史时也曾数度迷茫,清史研究专家朱维铮给了他答案:“你想象中国是一个仅有一扇窗户的房间,我坐在房间里面,屋里的一切都在我的目光之中,而你在房间外头,是能透过窗户看见物内的景象。我可以告诉你屋内的每一个细节,但无法告诉你房间所处的位置。这一点...
評分总体来说,秦和汉两个帝国构成了中华文明的“古典”时代,如同古希腊和古罗马之于西方。和“古希腊——古罗马”地中海时代类似,这个时代的中国文化和其他时代明显不同。这个古典时代的5个主要特征是:(1)在帝国秩序之下式微、但并未被完全抹除的地域文化之分野;(2)以皇帝...
評分有些历史书籍就是直接翻译古代的史书,包括《明朝那些事》 简直欺负那些记性不好的看不懂二十四史的,还不如看教科书 我觉得历史书就应该从史实上提炼出自己的观点,总是重复某年发生了某事毫无意义 这本书就很好说出了自己的观点,有自己的研究 说到秦朝的时候,“战争不是为...
