Here in 'China' I Dwell: Reconstructing Historical Discourses of China for Our Time: Brill's Humanities in China Library, cartea 10

Autor Zhaoguang Ge
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 apr 2017
Here in ‘China’ I Dwell is a historiographical account of the formation of Chinese historical narratives in light of outside pressures on China — the view from China’s borders. There is a special discussion of the inf luence of Japanese historians on the concept of China and its borders, including the nature of their sources, cultural and religious and more. In Ge’s comparative account, a new portrait of Chinese historical narratives, along with the views and assumptions implicit in these narrat ives, emerges in the context of East Asia, a similarly constructed concept with its own multitudes of frontiers and peoples.

Recenzii

"Here in ‘China’ I Dwell should be very useful to experts in Chinese history as well as all college levels of students and the leisure reader, who is interested in studying Chinese academic history."
– Augustine Adu-Frimpong, Southern University and A&M College, in African and Asian Studies, 16.2 (2017).

"In Here in "China" I Dwell, Ge Zhaoguang [offers] a historiographical account of the formation of Chinese historical narratives in light of China's interaction with the outside world. [...] the translators have made intelligible an astonishing array of texts from Chinese history, while conveying Ge's self-reflexive engagement with Chinese, Japanese, European, and North American scholarship on China and Asian history."
– Lin Hang, Hangzhou Normal University, in Monumenta Serica:Journal of Oriental Studies, 66.1.

"There is a special discussion of the influence of Japanese historians on the concept of China and its borders, including the nature of their sources, cultural and religious and more. In Ge's comparative account, a new portrait of Chinese historical narratives, along with the views and assumptions implicit in these narratives, emerges in the context of East Asia, a similarly constructed concept with its own multitudes of frontiers and peoples."
