編輯推薦
《從鴉片戰爭到軍閥混戰:清末民初的影像中國(英文版)》：The 1911 Revolution ended dynastic rule in China and paved the way for the founding of Asia's first republic Triggered by an accidental bomb explosion in Wuchang （modern-dayWuhan）, the revolution marked the culminatingpoint of decades of internal rebellion, foreignaggression and political decline; its leaders drewon a ferment of reformist and revolutionary ideasproduced by some of China's greatest modernthinkers. Although the 1911 Revolution did notresolve China's problems,it changed the countryfor ever, clearing a path for modernization, andmaking possible the more decisive revolutionof1949.
From the Opium War to the. Warlord Eraassembles a remarkable survey of historicalphotographs from leading collections around theworld.The images stretch from the Second OpiumWar to the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, fromthe Boxer Rebellion to the Russo-Japanese Warand the outbreak of revolution through the riseand fall ofYuan Shikai an the ensuingWarlord Era.
Accompanying an introductory essay bythe editor Liu Heung Shing are essays fromthree scholars of revolutionary China - JosephI/sherick of UC San Diego, Max K.W. Huang ofthe "Academia Sinica", and Zhang Haipeng of theChinese Academy of Social Sciences reflectingon the causes, achievements and failures of the 1911 Revolution, and its enduring meaning.
This book is simply superb. Liu Heung Shing travelledthe world to secure the rare collection of photographsthat present the last 100 years of China's tumultuoushistory in the most vivid, searing light yet achieved in asingle volume.James Kynge, author of China Shakes the World6iChina's tumultuous encounter with the West over a century is captured in this remarkablecollection of photographs. Combing arcluves around the world, Liu has unearthed imagesat once poignant and provocative, of mandarins and schoolboys, officers and ear-cleanersinhabiting a country on the cusp of modernity.From the Opium War to the Warlord Era is aunique visual history of an era that continues to shape Clunese sensibilities today."Petcr Hcsslcr. author of'Rrver Tou,n: Two Years on the Yungtze.
