具体描述

This innovative work is the first to approach the awakening of China as a historical problem in its own right, and to locate this problem within the broader history of the rise of modern China. It analyzes the link between the awakening of China as a historical narrative and the awakening of the Chinese people as a political technique for building a sovereign and independent state. In sum, it asks what we mean when we say that China "woke up" in this century. Fiction and fashion, architecture and autobiography, take their places alongside politics and history, and the reader is asked to move about among writers, philosophers, ethnographers, revolutionaries, and soldiers who would seem to have little in common. Rumor is sometimes taken as seriously as truth, novels are consulted as frequently as documents, and dreams are given a prominence normally reserved for facts in the writing of history. This book follows the legend of China's awakening from its origins in the European imagination, to its transmission to China and its encounter with a lyrical Chinese tradition of ethical awakening, to its incorporation and mobilization in a mass movement designed to wake up everyone. The idea of a national awakening crossed all discursive boundaries to make room for nationalist politics in personal culture and helped to conscript personal culture into service of the revolutionary state. The book focuses on the Nationalist movement in south China, highlighting the role of Sun Yat-sen as director of awakenings in the Nationalist Revolution and the place of Mao Zedong as his successor in the politics of mass awakening. Of special interest is the previously untold story of Mao's role in the NationalistPropaganda Bureau, showing Mao as a master of propaganda and discipline, rather than as peasant movement activist.

费约翰在其《唤醒中国》一书中，将精神文化与物质文化的诸多层面引入到政治史的研究中，使其书成为了一本别开生面的史学著作。他将后结构主义、符号学等理论引入到中国近现代史的研究中来，是十分少见的。通过该书，我们能够厘清国民革命时期中国的民族主义的话语以及阶级斗争...

用户评价

单章来说颇有精彩分析，但整本书似乎前后分裂。前半部是依赖思想和文学人物的民族主义思想文化史，后半部则更多是国民党早期的机构史，着重考察国民革命如何逐渐发展到群众政治和一党专制的路线，而民族主义思想退至幕后。

因为要写讨论问题，所以越读越觉得各章节并没有有效地联系起来，对二手材料过于倚重，对时间的处理太过随意。

a rich hsitory about the early Nationalist Party.

我总觉这是翻版的Japan's Modern Myth……

多年后回顾，依旧不失为一本让我脑洞大开的好书，主要分析了国民党在建党前后以建构其党的合法性的一系列举措。
