晚上看张帆老师的“科学”概念的文章,想起来之前看过这本书,两者在某些方面具有相似性。 张帆老师“科学”概念的那篇文章,梳理了近代以来科学概念的演变。从西洋——严复——日本——五四的轨迹演变,时间上两个拐点,分别是甲午战后和五四运动。演变的特征是中西交织——分...

评分香港社会对“卫生”有一种病态的执着。据说香港的贫民窟,比伦敦、纽约、巴黎干净多了,能和它比拼的只有东京。经历了一百多年的殖民时代,一直被殖民者排斥为unhygienic他者的香港人,终于可以用当年殖民者的语气,排斥unhygienic的内地人。日本人那么注重卫生,也是因为卫生...

Placing meanings of health and disease at the center of modern Chinese consciousness, Ruth Rogaski reveals how hygiene became a crucial element in the formulation of Chinese modernity in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Rogaski focuses on multiple manifestations across time of a single Chinese concept, weisheng—which has been rendered into English as "hygiene," "sanitary," "health," or "public health"—as it emerged in the complex treaty-port environment of Tianjin. Before the late nineteenth century, weisheng was associated with diverse regimens of diet, meditation, and self-medication. Hygienic Modernity reveals how meanings of weisheng, with the arrival of violent imperialism, shifted from Chinese cosmology to encompass such ideas as national sovereignty, laboratory knowledge, the cleanliness of bodies, and the fitness of races: categories in which the Chinese were often deemed lacking by foreign observers and Chinese elites alike.
嗯其实这本书比《再造病人》更历史一些,故事的场所更凝聚。所述内容已经远超过城市史。
评分真厉害,又扎实又聪明。
评分作者很善用春秋笔法,即使在表达hygiene是imperialism的一部分时候,也不忘记随时表达高度的政治正确。八国联军和第二次鸦片战争的专有名称都好值得玩味。福柯还是厉害的,现代人还是悲剧的。
评分一个范本型的研究,但并不激动人心。
评分寫得真好,不愧是在我心愛的屯兒教過書的人
