東方迷戀史：從物產、文化到靈性，西方世界對亞洲的發現與探求

The Light of Asia: A History of Western Fascination with the East

de 克里斯多福．哈定, Christopher Harding, 韓翔中 ...

何謂真實？誰說了算？我們該怎麼活？這是千百年來圍繞著西方世界「東方迷戀」的三個大哉問。從亞歷山大大帝到披頭四，從資源的掠奪到真理與靈魂的求索，有哪些事物讓西方人沉醉於亞洲的光芒中？自古希臘時代開始，西方與亞洲的交會大多充斥著奇異生物與巨人的荒誕傳說、極遠地區運來絲綢與香料的傳奇，以及對於遙遠未知的帝國感到的憂慮或不安。儘管二十世紀亞洲大半地區在經歷數百年戰事之後落入西方勢力的統治，但亞洲的思想、藝術與精神影響，卻在此時開始對西方進行回擊。《東方迷戀史》志在探索這部豐富交織的故事，勾勒這段混淆、迷茫卻非常重要的亞洲與西方關係史。自馬可．波羅以降，亞洲是西方人衷心迷戀的對象，但是西方對亞洲的認識卻又同時充滿缺陷。中國、印度和日本既被視為偉大的文明，卻又基於某些褊狹粗淺的觀點，認定是被西方超越並拋在腦後的地區。東方曾是西方人眼中充滿財富與驚奇的迷人之地、前景可期的基督教傳教對象 ...
