This superb collection of essays on late imperial and modern
Chinese history spans the brilliant forty-year career of the late
Frederic E. Wakeman, Jr. Appearing for the first time in one
volume, the essays offer richly textured narratives of critical
historical events as well as sweeping analyses of China's place in
world history. They take us from the late Ming dynasty to the
People's Republic - delving into complex issues of Confucianism and
intellectual history, the nitty-gritty details of Jiangyin
localism, wartime Shanghai, and more. Always there is engagement
with the larger concerns of history and the social sciences: the
public sphere, rebellion and revolution, the world crisis of the
seventeenth century, and the influence of imperialism.
