In 1644, the Manchus, a relatively unknown people inhabiting China’s rude northeastern frontier, overthrew the Ming, Asia’s mightiest rulers, and established the Qing dynasty, which endured to 1912. From this event arises one of Chinese history’s great conundrums: How did a barely literate alien people manage to remain in power for nearly 300 years over a highly cultured population that was vastly superior in number? This problem has fascinated scholars for almost a century, but until now no one has approached the question from the Manchu point of view.
This book, the first in any language to be based mainly on Manchu documents, supplies a radically new perspective on the formative period of the modern Chinese nation. Drawing on recent critical notions of ethnicity, the author explores the evolution of the “Eight Banners,” a unique Manchu system of social and military organization that was instrumental in the conquest of the Ming.
The author argues that as rulers of China the Manchu conquerors had to behave like Confucian monarchs, but that as a non-Han minority they faced other, more complex considerations as well. Their power derived not only from the acceptance of orthodox Chinese notions of legitimacy, but also, the author suggests, from Manchu “ethnic sovereignty,” which depended on the sustained coherence of the conquerors.
When, in the early 1700s, this coherence was threatened by rapid acculturation and the prospective loss of Manchu distinctiveness, the Qing court, always insecure, desperately urged its minions to uphold the traditions of an idealized “Manchu Way.” However, the author shows that it was not this appeal but rather the articulation of a broader identity grounded in the realities of Eight Banner life that succeeded in preserving Manchu ethnicity, and the Qing dynasty along with it, into the twentieth century.
我怎么觉得作者老在扯淡不好好儿说话啊 学术腔太重了也
评分再读此书,实在是觉得很多问题人家15年前已经回答过了。国内人云亦云的同时,各路大佬们还是好好读读书嘛。免得在我们年轻人眼里成了笑话。
评分读的第一本英文书,论述满洲统治问题和形成问题做得十分成功,至少很大程度上可以说服我,以重新认识"征服王朝"。当然其中将满汉对立做到了极致与实际可能不符,不过学术的"片面深刻"与"矫枉过正"未必不是一途,至少其在学术史的地位应是无可置疑的。而用chinese称汉人以与manchu相对很可能会导向一种满洲本非中国的思维,从而导致政治上的问题,但作者自然并无这样的企图,要人家美国人坚持中国的政治正确未免强人所难。而只有当你认真读过别人的书你才有权利批评
