Taylor & Francis Mapping Modernity in Shanghai
Book SynopsisThis book argues that modernity first arrived in late nineteenth-century Shanghai via a new spatial configuration. This city's colonial capitalist development ruptured the traditional configuration of self-contained households, towns, and natural landscapes in a continuous spread, producing a new set of fragmented as well as fluid spaces. In this process, Chinese sojourners actively appropriated new concepts and technology rather than passively responding to Western influences. Liang maps the spatial and material existence of these transient people and reconstructs a cultural geography that spreads from the interior to the neighbourhood and public spaces. In this book the author: discusses the courtesan house as a surrogate home and analyzes its business, gender, and material configurations; examines a new type of residential neighbourhood and shows how its innovative spatial arrangements transformed the traditional social orderTrade Review"The great strength of this book is its focus on the spatial rather than the temporal; Shanghai’s urban spaces are brought vividly to life. The book contributes greatly to our understanding of what modernity really meant to the Chinese residents of Shanghai." - Jonathan Howlett; The China Quarterly, December 2011 "Studies of modern Shanghai have disproportionately focused on the city in the early twentieth century, particularly in the Republican era. Liang’s work is a welcome remedy to this obvious imbalance in the field. For its glimpse of life in late nineteenth-century Shanghai and for its rethinking of issues related to city, gender, and modernity, it will be a useful handbook for historians and students of cultural studies... Liang’s book can be seen first of all as a work of urban and architectural history on a period when virtually all of what were to become old Shanghai’s land-mark buildings […] had not yet been built... Liang joins the ranks of recent scholars, such as Dorothy Ko and Susan Mann, in rejecting the image of a simple and total victimization of Chinese women." - Hanchao Lu, Georgia Institute of Technology; The Journal of Asian Studies "The book’s strengths lie in its vivid reconstructions of the treaty port’s urban milieu from an array of Chinese-language travel accounts, guidebooks, newspapers, lithographs, and literature from the era. In detailed descriptions of these works, Liang reveals the extent to which residents both adapted to and helped to construct, in lit- eral and figural ways, a cityscape of disconcerting volatility. In engaging with these materials, the author productively shifts the field away from the stylistic analysis that has dominated the study of Shanghai’s skyline and privileged its Western-style façades." - Cole Roskam, University of Hong Kong; Journal of Society of Architectural Historians, March 2014 Table of ContentsIntroduction 1.
