Title
History in Three Keys: The Boxers as Event, Experience, and Myth,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
History in Three Keys juxtaposes the accounts of historians with those of participants and witnesses and sets these perspectives against the range of popular myths that were fashioned about the Boxers. The first part of the book tells the story of the Boxer uprising as reconstructed by historians. Part Two explores the thought, feelings, and behavior of the direct participants in the Boxer experience, individuals who, without a preconceived idea of the entire event, understood what was happening to them in a manner fundamentally different from historians. Finally, in Part Three, Cohen examines the myths surrounding the uprising in twentiethcentury China and, to a lesser extent, the West as symbolic representations designed less to elucidate the Boxer past than to draw energy from it in the present.
