In this landmark exploration of the origins of nationalism and cultural identity in China, Pamela Kyle Crossley traces the ways in which a large, early modern empire of Eurasia, the Qing (1636-1912), incorporated neighboring, but disparate, political traditions into a new style of emperorship. Drawing on a wide variety of primary sources, including Manchu, Korean, and Chinese archival materials, Crossley argues that distortions introduced in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century historical records have blinded scholars to the actual course of events in the early years of the dynasty. This groundbreaking study examines the relationship between the increasingly abstract ideology of the centralizing emperorship of the Qing and the establishment of concepts of identity in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, before the advent of nationalism in China. Concluding with a broad-ranging postscript on the implications of her research for studies of nationalism and nation-building throughout modern Chinese history, A Translucent Mirror combines a readable narrative with a sophisticated, revisionary look at China's history. Crossley's book will alter current understandings of the Qing emperorship, the evolution of concepts of ethnicity, and the legacy of Qing rule for modern Chinese nationalism.

Pamela Kyle Crossley is Rosenwald Research Professor of History, Dartmouth College; author of Orphan Warriors: Three Manchu Generations and the End of the Qing World (1990) and The Manchus (1997); and coauthor (with Richard Bulliet and Dan Headrick) of The Earth and Its Peoples (1997).

柯氏说过对新清史颇有保留。以此书观之，柯氏与新清史歧异有三：首先新清史念兹在兹的满族性和认同，柯氏不认为是入关前隐然确立、入关后旗满一体化，而是在满清延展疆域中通过族系、神话和历史重估逐渐构建；其次，也相应满族认同流动性，柯氏认为清朝多民族多文化帝国意象，以至包括内地汉人“中国”认同，也都是在满清重构十七十八世纪历史话语中成立（而延展到近代发展为梁启超章炳麟之民族主义论争）。最后也是最重要，柯氏完全把清史归入早期现代帝国史及帝国民族与民族主义发明史行列，问题意识源于安德森等人之民族认同学而非传统史学：民族与族群认同系于帝国性和普世性，帝国普世性又进一步系于被神化的帝王世系与传奇（从需要部落推举之大汉到自我合法化之帝王）及超然于各民族文化之上的寰宇观（帝王自我包装多面观及自认为天下历史动力）。

主要说了两部分，一是从Nurgaci到Hung taiji到乾隆的rulership和统治范型适应征服和统治底种种需要而发生转变，（作者坚持帝国意识形态关系从emperorship之内的范畴得到理解）。二是几种典型的民族身份正是18世纪底意识形态产物，产生于皇权建构及与之对应的行政管理对族群身份的塑造和操纵。这也成了19世纪末民族主义活动家底思想源头以及对他们行动的限定。有洞见，但论述失之薄弱，浅尝辄止。

might be a "landmark" in terms of her perspective and concentrations, but not in terms of a good contribution on methods and argument. A smart and accurate capture of many things, though, the power rarely lies in her explanation and evaluation of evidences. it is a fruit out of the breakthrough of literary theories, i would say.
