Joseph W. Esherick is Professor of Modern Chinese History at the University of California, San Diego. He is the author of The Origins of the Boxer Uprising (UC Press) and co-editor of The Chinese Cultural Revolution as History, among many books.
Ancestral Leaves follows one family through six hundred years of Chinese history and brings to life the epic narrative of the nation, from the fourteenth century through the Cultural Revolution. The lives of the Ye family—“Ye” means “leaf” in Chinese—reveal the human side of the large-scale events that shaped modern China: the vast and destructive rebellions of the nineteenth century, the economic growth and social transformation of the republican era, the Japanese invasion during World War II, and the Cultural Revolution under the Chinese Communists. Joseph W. Esherick draws from rare manuscripts and archival and oral history sources to provide an uncommonly personal and intimate glimpse into Chinese family history, illuminating the changing patterns of everyday life during rebellion, war, and revolution.

評分可讀性很強。不過“個人的曆史”和“大曆史”的斷裂感蠻明顯,貌似作者想實現的目標沒太實現……
評分這本書可讀性挺強,可以用來做課本。不過有點不知what to make of it. 不過不管怎麼樣,手上如果有這麼強的一組材料,還是值得寫一本的。像葉傢這樣的生命力和韌性還是很可觀的
