LATE IMPERIAL AND MODERN CHINA: READINGS IN HISTORY AND THEORY


This is a reading course, designed to cover the basic empirical and major theoretical literature in English pertaining to late imperial and modern Chinese society, polity, economy, ideology, and law. Some attention is given also to major events and to "the new cultural history." There are more topics and reading than can be covered in a single quarter. A number of topics will be pre-selected (highlighted in bold print); a few may be chosen according to the composition and interest of the class.

To help you develop the habit of reading rigorously and keeping notes for easy retrieval, I would like to ask that you prepare typewritten notes, to be kept in alphabetical order by author. I shall periodically ask to read those notes, until I am satisfied that you are reading and taking notes with sufficient rigor.

For thematic titles, follow this outline: a one paragraph statement in your own words of the theme of the title, and then several paragraphs summarizing the main supporting arguments and evidence. Try to attend to the connections between the main and supporting arguments, and between the arguments and the empirical information. Summarize, finally, your own observations and criticisms. In making your observations, ask of the empirically based titles: what has been demonstrated to your satisfaction and what has not? why? And of the theoretical titles: how might this be useful for you in your study of Chinese history? You might address also: how has this work been shaped by the ideological / theoretical predilections of its time?

You should be testing throughout this quarter "theories" and ideas against the empirical studies. We will try as much as possible to pair theoretical readings with empirical studies inspired by them, so that you would be reading the theory not just as theory but also in its empirical application. A major goal of this course is to help you develop useful habits in mediating between theory and fact.

You should expect to read two to three books or their equivalent each week. (You may sign up for an additional four credits of directed reading; the course may be considered equal to two courses in workload.) Students majoring in modern Chinese history should prepare at least ten of the listed topics before taking their written candidacy examinations.

(All titles under the pre-selected topics should be on reserve; the “*” titles are the theoretical ones; the "+" titles are in paperback and have been ordered through the bookstore.)
