費正清（John K. Fairbank）、范力沛（Lyman P. Van Slyke）、史華慈（Benjamin I. Schwartz）、史景遷（Jonathan Spence）、魏斐德（Frederic Wakeman）、高居翰（Jr. James Cahill）……北美中國研究泰斗共同撰寫的列文森深度解讀，首次全文中譯 列文森著作備受爭議，為何被視為「天才般的成就」與「史學藝術的巔峰」？「像莫扎特一樣，他用精湛的技藝創造出了比技藝精湛更有意義的東西。」 收入列文森遺稿〈猶太身分的選擇〉 麻省理工學院教授、列文森之子托馬斯．列文森（Thomas Levenson） 作序葉文心、歐立德（Mark C. Elliott）、董玥、黃樂嫣（Gloria Davies）、齊慕實（Timothy Cheek）、白傑明（Geremie R. Barmé） 聯合撰寫長篇導讀 約瑟夫．列文森（Joseph R. Levenson, 1920–1969），才華橫溢的美國歷史學家，以對中國近代思想史的奠基性研究享譽於世，被稱為「莫扎特式的史學家」。他以一系列影響深遠的著作提出的諸多論題，如天下與國家、傳統與現代性、科學與儒學、經典主義與歷史主義等，半個多世紀以來持續為中國研究學界提供綜合性的思考框架與對話坐標。1987 年，美國亞洲研究協會創設「列文森圖書獎」，以紀念他的學術貢獻。 本書由一組集中討論列文森著述的文章組成，出自費正清、范力沛、史華慈、史景遷、魏斐德、高居翰等北美中國研究界的重要學者之手。他們分別回憶列文森的學術和生平，探討其觀點與貢獻，並從學術批評的角度展開深入對話。這些文章一方面為閱讀和理解列文森指出了不同角度的門徑；另一方面也印證和展示了列文森的學說如何持續參與歷史與現實的對話，為中國研究的發展提供源源不絕的靈感和動力。 書末收入列文森本人的一篇未刊文稿〈猶太身份的選擇〉，被視為深入理解其思想脈絡的重要文獻。

乘風破浪來到中國的英國商人如何參與十九世紀帝國衝突的零和遊戲作者使用未曾與世人見面的太古集團檔案，為這間公司撰寫它度過動蕩不安中國近代史兩百年的迷人故事。民族崛起，帝國衰落，而太古集團這艘船航行穿越風暴。這是英國史和中國史一流史家的上乘之作。──史蒂芬．普拉特（Stephen R. Platt），美國阿姆赫斯特麻塞諸塞大學歷史系教授，著有《帝國暮色》（Imperial Twilight）畢可思把英國在中國的歷史寫得無可匹敵。在《綁定中國》，他講述一段橫跨兩百年動蕩歷史的非凡故事，關於一個來自利物浦的家族企業如何把自己變成亞洲的一部分。這是家庭的故事，帝國的故事，也是關係網的故事。──香港大學歷史系教授高馬可（John M. Carroll），著有《帝國夾縫中的香港》（Edge of Empires Chinese Elites and British Colonials in Hong Kong）這是亞洲其中一間重要英國公司的故事。但這個故事的意義遠不止於此——它包羅萬象的內容包含關於帝國如何形成，在鼎盛時期運作，然後被迫重塑自身。畢可思使用各式素材，其中許多是學者們從未見過的史料，他講述太古在亞洲創造新的貿易路線和商業關係，還有亞洲接著也被帝國商業塑造，然後面對戰爭和一九四九年中國共產主義革命的影響。這是一部強而有力又重要的歷史，將在英國與亞洲關係走上全新且不可預測的變化之際留下印記，其敘事風格和活力就連最鋌而走險的大班都會滿意。──芮納．米德（Rana Mitter），著有《中國的抗日戰爭，1937-1945》（China’s War with Japan, 1937-1945: The Struggle for Survival） 一個西方家族商行——也是擁有諸多商行的家族——如何在亞洲生存並蓬勃發展兩個多世紀？一間開路先鋒般的私人企業如何巡航穿越現代中國的戰爭、革命和改革開放？畢可斯把這個太古集團的故事講得精彩絕倫。這本書有很多身分：這是一本讀起來像小說的權威商業史。這是一部帝國衝突與競爭的大戲。這是關於商業創造我們今天生活的現代世界及其機構的故事。從商業的角度來看，這是一段中國和香港的迷人歷史。這本書適合研究現代中國及其外交關係的讀者，以及今天在中國做生意的人。這段歷史有很多教訓值得今人汲取。──柯偉林（William C. Kirby），哈佛大

Having made documentary films screened at the most prestigious film festivals in the West, Chinese documentary filmmaker Wang Bing presents a unique case of independent filmmaking. In The Cinema of Wang Bing, Bruno Lessard examines the documentarian’s most important films, focusing on the two obsessions at the heart of his oeuvre—the legacy of Maoist China in the present and the transformation of labor since China’s entry into the market economy—and how the crucial figures of survivor and worker are represented on screen. Bruno Lessard argues that Wang Bing is a minjian (grassroots) intellectual whose films document the impact of Mao’s Great Leap Forward on Chinese collective memory and register the repercussions of China’s turn to neoliberalism on workers in the post-Reform era. Bringing together Chinese documentary studies and China studies, the author shows how Wang Bing’s practice reflects the minjian ethos when documenting the survivors of the Great Famine and those who have not b

傳奇歷史學家列文森開創性著作，全新翻譯「梁啟超的思想是他的牢籠。」他的自相矛盾，他的一變再變，是要為怎樣的一個問題提供答案？當找到這個問題，就找到了思想史的關鍵。 麻省理工學院教授、列文森之子托馬斯．列文森（Thomas Levenson） 作序葉文心、歐立德（Mark C. Elliott）、董玥、黃樂嫣（Gloria Davies）、齊慕實（Timothy Cheek）、白傑明（Geremie R. Barmé） 聯合撰寫長篇導讀 《梁啟超與近代中國思想》是美國歷史學家約瑟夫．列文森的第一部專著，從「變形記」、「美麗新世界」、「追憶似水年華」三階段追索中國近代知識人梁啟超的思想嬗變，探求他身處歷史和價值撕裂的煎熬之中，如何從傳統突圍、擁抱進步主義和現代西方，卻又在生命的最後十年主動走向不合時宜，「一夫當關把守舊中國的疆土」。作者的視野並不限於思想者個體，而是以歷史與個人的交互作用貫穿全書，通過梁氏思想中種種「必然的前後矛盾」和「理性上的不完美」，不斷反觀歷史，揭示近代中國思想史鮮麗複雜的面貌及其變化的本質。 「梁啟超經歷了漫長的回家之路，他在半途碰見了年輕的一代。 他幾乎徹底心碎後才到達了反傳統文化之境，而年輕人從他手中接過的是一種自然狀態、一份免費禮物、一個出發點。對他而言只是冰山一角的想法（水面之下深埋著他對傳統文化的赤忱），對年輕人來說是基石。他們追隨了他一段時間，並沒有說要永遠追隨他。 這就是為何《新青年》的『新青年』們看似在說跟梁啟超一樣的話，卻很少跟他一起說。因為二者的語言並非真正相同，『一樣的』思想並不一樣。 當一戰改變了這些思想進行的環境，梁氏的思想從根源上決定了他的不合時宜。」
