In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, booming demand for natural resources transformed China and its frontiers. Historians of China have described this process in stark terms: pristine borderlands became breadbaskets. Yet Manchu and Mongolian archives reveal a different story. Well before homesteaders arrived, wild objects from the far north became part of elite fashion, and unprecedented consumption had exhausted the region's most precious resources.
In A World Trimmed with Fur, Jonathan Schlesinger uses these diverse archives to reveal how Qing rule witnessed not the destruction of unspoiled environments, but their invention. Qing frontiers were never pristine in the nineteenth century—pearlers had stripped riverbeds of mussels, mushroom pickers had uprooted the steppe, and fur-bearing animals had disappeared from the forest. In response, the court turned to "purification;" it registered and arrested poachers, reformed territorial rule, and redefined the boundary between the pristine and the corrupted. Schlesinger's resulting analysis provides a framework for rethinking the global invention of nature.

本书从乾隆六十年开始，在整整五年的时间跨度中描摹宦情、勾勒人物，军国大事、两朝帝王以及许多朝廷大员涵括其中，而着力点仍在于禅让的三年。禅让的三年，所有重大事件都离不开三个人：弘历，和珅，颙琰。这是大清王朝唯一一次禅让，也是一个政治结构复杂的时期，是清代一个重要的历史节点……禅让，是弘历暮年浓墨重彩的一笔，评价虽远非他期盼的那样美好，却也是乾隆帝遵循儒家理念，希望将治统与道统整合为一的尝试。上皇逝后，嘉庆帝高扬起“守成”的旗帜，对求新求变公开斥责，对外部世界更为骄矜排拒，浑然不识间把国家带入深渊。同时，禅让的三年，是和珅由宠臣走向权臣的得意旅程，也是他的人生绝唱……

翻译是不同民族、不同语种之间进行语言与文字交流的中介手段和转换形式，它作为一种思想与文化交流的语言活动，在人类历史上发挥了重要作用。纵观世界文化的进步与发展，各民族、各国家之间的文化交往活动无疑是一股重要的动力，而翻译正是跨文化交流的主要媒介。当我们考察中外文化交流史时，可以清晰地看到，每一次翻译活动的高潮，必然促进了中国社会的进步和文化的高涨，推动了中华文明的不断创新与发展。
在这一百多年间，西方几个主要国家思想上历经启蒙运动的洗礼，经济上在工业革命的推动下，资本主义得到蓬勃的发展，中西之间文化发展水平的差距日益拉大。19世纪中叶，西方列强势力扩张，终于打开了老大中国的大门。经受两次鸦片战争失败的刺激和国内太平天国运动的严重打击，清朝部分统治者和在野的士大夫从洋枪洋炮所代表的西方物质文明中终于认识到只有改弦更张，师夷长技，才能挽救摇摇欲坠的皇朝统治。一场向西方学习的高潮——洋务运动终于掀起。洋务运动又一次开启了中西文化交流的闸门，结束了清皇朝闭关锁国的状态。

19世纪中国发生了巨大变革。这本书从分析中国社会的内部结构及其制度入手，强调了中国地方名流的作用，论述了在其影响下的地方组建武装活动的形成和发展，并就此对中国近代史的分期问题提出了新的看法。

曾小萍编著的《自贡商人(近代早期中国的企业家)》以自贡盐业的经营和自贡商人为研究对象，揭示了19世纪以及20世纪初期自贡盐业发展的基本面貌。作者高度评价了自贡盐业在中国乃至世界产业经济史上的研究地位，认为自贡盐业是“中国第一个资本密集、大规模生产的私营井盐工业”。本书记述的是中国最早的私人高资本、高生产能力工业企业——食盐制造企业的百年兴衰。这些企业清朝中期时出现在今天的四川省自贡市。这是一部商业史的著作，也是一部与外界互不关联的商人圈的社会史——他们调配经济、社会和政治资源，向我们呈现了帝国边缘地带的中国城市精英的形成。

清末官制变革，将原来“内外相维”格局改为上下贯注，是近代中国政体转型的重要内容。改制总体目标是仿效西方，由君主专制向君主立宪制过渡。清廷试图通过官制改革奠定立宪的官治基础，进而刷新吏治，提挈政纲、挽救危亡；可是改制反而导致统治秩序严重失范，社会矛盾急剧尖锐，促使清廷速亡。其要因，在君臣上下只顾一己之私，阻挠及妨碍改革深化，不能回应社会各方面的利益诉求，结局也与他们的预期相去悬殊。
本书引用大量未刊档案与清人文集、日记、书信，揭示了清季改制中新旧体制的复杂纠葛，折射出制度兴革与中西历史传统的缠绕，以及对后来政体设置的重大影响。

"In a sweeping overview of four centuries of Mongolian history that draws on previously untapped sources, Johan Elverskog opens up totally new perspectives on some of the most urgent questions historians have recently raised about the role of Buddhism in the constitution of the Qing empire. Theoretically informed and strongly comparative in approach, Elverskog’s work tells a fascinating and important story that will interest all scholars working at the intersection of religion and politics." —Mark Elliott, Harvard University
"Johan Elverskog has rewritten the political and intellectual history of Mongolia from the bottom up, telling a convincing story that clarifies for the first time the revolutions which Mongolian concepts of community, rule, and religion underwent from 1500 to 1900. His account of Qing rule in Mongolia doesn’t just tell us what images the Qing emperors wished to project, but also what images the Mongols accepted themselves, and how these changed over the centuries. In the scope of time it covers, the originality of the views advanced, and the accuracy of the scholarship upon which it is based, Our Great Qing seems destined to mark a watershed in Mongolian studies. It will be essential reading for specialists in Mongolian studies and will make an important contribution and riposte to the ‘new Qing history’ now changing the face of late imperial Chinese history. Specialists in Tibetan Buddhism and Buddhism’s interaction with the political realm will also find in this work challenging and thought-provoking." —ChristopherAtwood, Indiana University
Although it is generally believed that the Manchus controlled the Mongols through their patronage of Tibetan Buddhism, scant attention has been paid to the Mongol view of the Qing imperial project. In contrast to other accounts of Manchu rule, Our Great Qing focuses not only on what images the metropole wished to project into Mongolia, but also on what images the Mongols acknowledged themselves. Rather than accepting the Manchu’s use of Buddhism, Johan Elverskog begins by questioning the static, unhistorical, and hegemonic view of political life implicit in the Buddhist explanation. By stressing instead the fluidity of identity and Buddhist practice as processes continually developing in relation to state formations, this work explores how Qing policies were understood by Mongols and how they came to see themselves as Qing subjects.
In his investigation of Mongol society on the eve of the Manchu conquest, Elverskog reveals the distinctive political theory of decentralization that fostered the civil war among the Mongols. He explains how it was that the Manchu Great Enterprise was not to win over "Mongolia" but was instead to create a unified Mongol community of which the disparate preexisting communities would merely be component parts.
A key element fostering this change was the Qing court’s promotion of Gelukpa orthodoxy, which not only transformed Mongol historical narratives and rituals but also displaced the earlier vernacular Mongolian Buddhism. Finally, Elverskog demonstrates how this eighteenth-century conception of a Mongol community, ruled by an aristocracy and nourished by a Buddhist emperor, gave way to a pan-Qing solidarity of all Buddhist peoples against Muslims and Christians and to local identities that united for the first time aristocrats with commoners in a new Mongol Buddhist identity on the eve of the twentieth century.

全书以道光皇帝的生平为主线，讲述了大清帝国30年间社会的剧烈变化。
清朝维护大一统帝国的努力、社会各阶层的挣扎与反抗、外交上的由盛而衰、军事上的不断败北、政治上的腐朽没落，犹如一幅悲凉凄清的末世画卷展现出来，生动地反映了大清帝国“无边落木萧萧下”的衰败景象。

In the summer of 1900, bands of peasant youths from the villages of north China streamed into Beijing to besiege the foreign legations, attracting the attention of the entire world. Joseph Esherick reconstructs the early history of the Boxers, challenging the traditional view that they grew from earlier anti-dynastic sects, and stressing instead the impact of social ecology and popular culture.

Midway through the reign of Ch'ien-lung emperor, Hungli, mass hysteria broke out. It was feared that sorcerers were roaming the land clipping off the ends of men's queues (braids worn by royal decree) and chanting magical incantations over them in order to steal the souls of their owners. In this book, Kuhn chronicles this epidemic of fear and the official prosecution of soulstealers that ensued, so opening up a window on 18th-century China. The book raises questions not just about China, but also about past human behaviour in general and it demonstates how in any society, a provincial panic can become a national witch-hunt.

In late imperial China, opera transmitted ideas across the social hierarchy about the self, family, society, and politics. Beijing attracted a diverse array of opera genres and audiences and, by extension, served as a hub for the diffusion of cultural values.
It is in this context that historian Andrea S. Goldman harnesses opera as a lens through which to examine urban cultural history. Her meticulous yet playful account takes up the multiplicity of opera types that proliferated at the time, exploring them as contested sites through which the Qing court and commercial playhouses negotiated influence and control over the social and moral order. Opera performance blurred lines between public and private life, and offered a stage on which to act out gender and class transgressions. This work illuminates how the state and various urban constituencies manipulated opera to their own ends, and sheds light on empire-wide transformations underway at the time.
