内容简介······
本书在全球化的背景下,考察“公园”作为一个新兴的西方文明装置,如何进入晚清及民国北京,在这个过程中又如何实现了传统与现代、本土文化与外来文明的对接与转化。旨在从公园入手,以小见大,呈现晚清至民国北京政治、社会、历史、文学、文化诸方面纷繁复杂的变革。
本书的研究内容是晚清至民国时期北京的公园,既包括清末民初政府正式建造、开放的公园,也包括具有公园性质的公共游览空间。采取个案研究的方式,选取若干最有代表性的公园,借此折射清末民初北京的现代性转型。近代北京各大公园多由清代的皇家禁苑改造开放而成,其等级和风格有着明显的分野,地处不同的城市区域,吸引了阶级、政治、文化背景各异的人群,并形成具有不同功能与审美风格的公共空间。
本书以万牲园、中央公园、北海公园、城南游艺园与陶然亭为个案,借以一一对应传统士绅、新文化人、新青年、普通市民、政治团体这五种人群的生活及表现,同时也分别反映公园所承担的启蒙、文化、文学、娱乐、政治等功能。

Content introduction
In the context of globalization, this book examines how "park", as a new installation of Western civilization, entered Beijing in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, and how it realized the docking and transformation of traditional and modern, local culture and foreign civilization in the process. It aims to start with the park and show the complicated changes in politics, society, history, literature and culture in Beijing from the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China.
The research content of this book is the parks in Beijing from the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, including the parks officially built and opened by the government in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, as well as the public sightseeing Spaces with the nature of parks. By case study, some of the most representative parks are selected to reflect the modern transformation of Beijing in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. Most of the major parks in modern Beijing were transformed and opened from the imperial forbidden gardens of the Qing Dynasty. Their grades and styles have obvious differences, and they are located in different urban areas, attracting people with different class, political and cultural backgrounds, and forming public Spaces with different functions and aesthetic styles.
This book takes Wan Animal Garden, Central Park, Beihai Park, Chengnan Amusement Park and Taoranting as cases to correspond to the life and performance of five groups of people: traditional gentry, new cultural people, new youth, ordinary citizens and political groups, and also reflect the functions of enlightenment, culture, literature, entertainment and politics that the park undertakes.
