试着读完一本书之后全凭印象写读书笔记,以此考验自己的理解水平,所以肯定多有缺漏和不实。本文不出意外地烂尾了,因为不想拖到明天,但是估计没有人会看到最后。 在英语学界研究中国乡村家庭的范式中,乡村家庭是一个由理性个体组成的、处在一定的市场环境中又旨在完成一定经...
评分一、全书综述 《私人生活的变革:一个中国村庄里的爱情、家庭与亲密关系》这本书中,作者的观点简单鲜明:一是农民的私人生活经历了私人家庭崛起和家庭内部个人私生活普遍出现的双重转型。二是国家在农民私人生活的转型及个人主体性形成过程中所起的重要作用,包括集体化时期对...
评分文:成庆 当在80 年代末读到著名作家张贤亮的小说《绿化树》时,其时方为 青春少年,懵懂无知,读完全书,却为那位农村少妇马缨花对章永璘的爱情表白感到震惊,"你放心吧!就是钢刀把我头砍断,我血身子还陪着你哩!"抛开小说本身想象的情调,当时于我的最深印象,乃是农村女...
评分3年前,我读完余华的《兄弟》下,难掩内心的失望,在个人空间上留下了这样一段话: “故事黑暗,充满了性和狂乱,这都没有关系,谁都知道现在就算不是一个最坏的时代,也绝非天堂,人类正不可避免地走向堕落。但,难道余华你也仅仅看到了这些,并只能用一个‘伦理...
评分十分失望,仅仅是一个标准化的中国研究,拿到列文森奖也就不奇怪也不值得吹嘘了。虽然是一个严肃的研究,但是套路是西方理论加中国经验,先不论有没有中国主体性的问题意识,本身对于西方理论自身反思性不足,而经验田野也不进行深描。导致研究在理论还是在经验上都显得...

For seven years in the 1970s, the author lived in a village in northeast China as an ordinary farmer. In 1989, he returned to the village as an anthropologist to begin the unparalleled span of eleven years’ fieldwork that has resulted in this book―a comprehensive, vivid, and nuanced account of family change and the transformation of private life in rural China from 1949 to 1999. The author’s focus on the personal and the emotional sets this book apart from most studies of the Chinese family. Yan explores private lives to examine areas of family life that have been largely overlooked, such as emotion, desire, intimacy, privacy, conjugality, and individuality. He concludes that the past five decades have witnessed a dual transformation of private life: the rise of the private family, within which the private lives of individual women and men are thriving.
挺有趣的书,易读易懂,完了能让人注意到身边一些被忽视的变化。但是缺点也很明显,缺乏对既有概念的反思(love, privete life, privacy, romantic), 完全不分析这些概念在不同时空中的不同意义,假定它们有恒定的本质。同样被本质化的还有Tradition, traditional family之类的东西。这些东西在历史书写里都应该是可以多加考虑的。
评分又重读。。
评分不懂为什么这么高分。是读过的最不喜欢的一本ethnography了。
评分This is actually an inspiring book, especially his discussion on George Duby and Phillippe Aries. I find myself cite them all the time.
