Susan Naquin is Professor of History at Princeton University. Her earlier books include Millenarian Rebellion in China (1976) and Shantung Rebellion (1981); as coauthor, Chinese Society in the Eighteenth Century (1987); and, as coeditor, Pilgrims and Sacred Sites in China (California, 1992).
The central character in Susan Naquin's extraordinary new book is the city of Peking during the Ming and Qing periods. Using the city's temples as her point of entry, Naquin carefully excavates Peking's varied public arenas, the city's transformation over five centuries, its human engagements, and its rich cultural imprint.
This study shows how modern Beijing's glittering image as China's great and ancient capital came into being and reveals the shifting identities of a much more complex past, one whose rich social and cultural history Naquin splendidly evokes. Temples, by providing a place where diverse groups could gather without the imprimatur of family or state, made possible a surprising assortment of community-building and identity-defining activities. By revealing how religious establishments of all kinds were used for fairs, markets, charity, tourism, politics, and leisured sociability, Naquin shows their decisive impact on Peking and, at the same time, illuminates their little-appreciated role in Chinese cities generally. Lacking most of the conventional sources for urban history, she has relied particularly on a trove of commemorative inscriptions that express ideas about the relationship between human beings and gods, about community service and public responsibility, about remembering and being remembered. The result is a book that will be essential reading in the field of Chinese studies for years to come.

太過瑣碎,對public space 的重要性也沒有解釋得很好
評分論點方麵,清代部分比明代部分有意思,或許也是因為“帝國性”與“地方性”這兩重特質的緊張關係在清代的北京城齣現瞭正式的錶徵(官方建製、社會生活)。個人認為尾聲部分過分強調瞭北京與其他城市(如天津、蘇州)的相似經驗。材料方麵,盡管作者強調瞭本書主要運用的是各類寺觀的碑文,但在具體論述中對這批材料的使用和分析都不夠充分,略感失望。個人尤其感興趣的泰山相關信仰的興衰轉變(CH.14)以及有關會館/行會/寺觀的討論(CH.15)。總體而言,書還是太大太散(終於看掉瞭這本磚==)。
評分高大全,但是感覺沒有高萬桑的作品有重點
評分捲帙浩繁。隻讀瞭一點。以後接著看。
評分讀chapter 8、13
