摘要

讽刺和闹剧使我们的殖民历史变得温柔,因此可以更灵活和复杂地解读,而不是有力的解读。正是这种对历史来源的富有想象力的处理,并让它们就当今关于殖民主义遗产的紧迫问题进行对话,《Vices Empires of Vices》说服了我们对历史和理论的深刻见解,而深入的档案工作仍然可以回报我们。如果说有什么不同的话,那就是这本书令人信服地表明,全球帝国历史并不是一个必然需要从殖民大都市开始的故事。然而,只有当我们开始认识到历史学家技艺的解释层面对任何与殖民历史的批判性接触有多么重要时,讲述一个从系统性特质中产生的变革故事才能实现。

Christian Circulations: Global Christianity and the Local Church in Penang and Singapore 1819-2000 by Jean DeBernardi (review)
ironies and farce that render our colonial past tender, and therefore open to more flexible and complex readings, rather than forceful. It is this imaginative treatment of historical sources and subjecting them to a conversation on pressing issues of our present day on the legacies of colonialism, that Empires of Vices persuades us of the historiographical and theoretical insights that in depth archival work can still reward us with. If anything, the book compelling demonstrates that global imperial history is not a story that necessarily needs to begin in the colonial metropole. Yet, telling a story of change that emerges from systemic idiosyncrasies can only be achieved if we begin to recognise how important the interpretive dimension of a historian’s craft is to any critical engagement with the colonial past.
