In Qing Colonial Enterprise, Laura Hostetler shows how Qing China (1636-1911) used cartography and ethnography to pursue its imperial ambitions. She argues that far from being on the periphery of developments in the early modern period, Qing China both participated in and helped shape the new emphasis on empirical scientific knowledge that was simultaneously transforming Europe--and its colonial empires--at the time.
Although mapping in China is almost as old as Chinese civilization itself, the Qing insistence on accurate, to-scale maps of their territory was a new response to the difficulties of administering a vast and growing empire. Likewise, direct observation became increasingly important to Qing ethnographic writings, such as the illustrated manuscripts known as "Miao albums" (from which twenty color paintings are reproduced in this book). These were intended to educate Qing officials about various non-Han peoples so that they could govern these groups more effectively.Hostetler's groundbreaking account will interest anyone studying the history of the early modern period and colonialism.

评分挺好看的
评分可能本科的时候读这个瞎糊弄一下还好了,现在研究生的课程里和大师们的作品放在一起读就很???研究确实详尽,但观点很单薄。中西方的比较也很superficial。
评分又一本导论吓死人,正文呵呵呵。最好的评价大概就是:没有在回答中国历史的问题吧。。
评分很水的一本书。导论提到早期现代的再现变化(例如,制图术的图像、文本描述和人物的淡出等),集中体现帝国时空观念的转变,这一段非常重要,但作者写得比较凌乱,掺杂的东西太多,没有进一步深挖。另外注意作者与Siam Mapped(《图绘暹罗》)的一点点对话。
