Ray Huang (Chinese: 黃仁宇; 25 June 1918 – 8 January 2000) was a Chinese historian and philosopher. He was an officer in the Nationalist army and fought in the Burma campaigns. He earned a Ph.D in history from the University of Michigan, worked with Joseph Needham and is a contributor of Needham's Science and Civilisation in China. Huang taught in the U.S., and is best known in his later years for the idea of macro-history.
1587, a Year of No Significance: The Ming Dynasty in Decline (Chinese: 萬曆十五年; pinyin: Wanli Shiwunian) is Chinese historian Ray Huang's most famous work. First published by Yale University Press in 1981,[1] it examines how a number of seemingly insignificant events[which?] in 1587 might have caused the downfall of the Ming dynasty. The Chinese title, meaning "the fifteenth year of the Wanli era", is how the year 1587 was expressed in the Chinese calendar: the era name of the reigning Chinese emperor at the time, followed by which year of his reign it was. Major figures discussed in the book besides the emperor are Grand Secretaries Zhang Juzheng and Shen Shixing, official Hai Rui, general Qi Jiguang and philosopher Li Zhi. Although Huang had completed the manuscript by 1976, no publisher would accept it at first, as it was not serious enough for an academic work, but was too serious for popular non-fiction. The work has been translated into a number of different languages: Chinese, Japanese, German and French.
这是一部奇书。 没想过历史可以这样写。习惯了编年体的我们认为历史只有那么一种固定写法,突然面对这样以点带面,用某一年事件点破朝代命运的写法时,开始竟然会不习惯。粗线条描述历史并不难,能从小事着手讲述历史并引申出高人一等的论点则属难得。 老实说,读着《万历十五...
评分韧性、差异化竞争及推广 ——我编辑黄仁宇作品的体会 按:这是应《中国编辑》约稿而作,刊今年第六期。据编辑耿丽萍小姐说,是俞晓群先生推荐我的。谢谢俞师。 英国知名出版人吉尔•戴维斯在其《我是编辑高手》中专列一章,标题就叫:“编辑难,难如登天。”做个好编辑,只...
评分读完了《万历十五年》,这本书给我的感觉是意料之外,我以为这是一本关于“巧合”的书,我以为作者想要用这一年中发生的众多看似无关的事情,来共同描绘出同一个未来,那就是明朝——这最后一个汉人王朝的衰落。可是看完这本书,我发现这是一本关于“必然”的书,或者说这...
评分有可能是黄仁宇这本书的写作方式,也有可能这就是中国历朝历代历史人物的悲哀,看过这本书两天以后,再去回想,带给我的最大感触还是那些一心想要为国家进步,体制完善,穷尽一生的努力却最终泯灭在历史的长河中变成尘埃的这些人。 他们的遗憾痛苦,挣扎与宁死不屈,坚持与正...
评分《万历十五年》是一本畅销二十余年的经典之作。 黄仁宇的叙述恣肆雍容,很多人读这本书,就会陷进去,因而产生神龙不见首尾的感觉。 在看这本书的同时,其实可以先看黄的另外一本书:《十六世纪明代中国之财政与税收》。 这本书...
my life is sucked out. almost blinded and exhausted to death.
评分原版也给力,我那本的封面是绿色的
评分从几个关键人物入手,巧妙而不着痕迹地涵盖了那个时代以及它在我们的历史洪流中所揭示的那些规律性的东西。a sad conclusion in the end and including now。最大的感慨还是莫过于知道了历史可以被这样描述。
评分原版也给力,我那本的封面是绿色的
评分万历十五年,这个貌似无足轻重的年份,标志了明王朝能够触及的上限,不管皇帝是励精图治还是不理朝政,不管首辅是锐意进取还是循规蹈矩,不管将军是足智多谋还是平庸无能,不管文官是清正廉明还是贪污腐败,不管哲人是激进极端还是保守中庸,最终一切都徒劳无功。
