Con 2.200 aos de historia y 7.000 km longitud, la Gran Muralla China es una afirmacin material del pas que defiende.Con sus 2.200 aos de historia y 7.000 kilmetros de longitud, la Gran Muralla China parece una afirmacin material y contundente del pas que defiende, y del secular sentimiento chino de ser una civilizacin avanzada ansiosa por diferenciarse claramente de los brbaros que la rodean. Pero detrs del impresionante exterior de la muralla (y de los mitos surgidos en torno a ella) se halla una historia compleja que ha definido y perjudicado a China simultneamente. Julia Lovell ha escrito una nueva y fundamental historia de la Gran Muralla que explica al lector las conquistas y las catstrofes del Imperio chino, desde el segundo milenio antes de Cristo hasta la actualidad.En los ltimos aos, la Muralla se ha convertido en un potente smbolo del nacionalismo chino, y de la resistencia a la dominacin extranjera. Pero cun eficaz fue la Muralla en realidad y cul fue su objetivo real? Fue un precedente, aunque a escala gigantesca, del Muro de Berln, una barrera tanto para mantener a su poblacin dentro como a los indeseables fuera? Lovell escarba en la mitologa que rodea hoy a la Gran Muralla y descubre una historia mucho menos ilustre y ms compleja que la que tienen en mente los turistas que la visitan: no es una sola muralla sino una sucesin de tramos sueltos, no es visible desde la luna y la parte visitada apenas tiene cuatro siglos. Sin embargo, la historia de la Gran Muralla recorre la de China y la poltica fronteriza que defini el pas,atravesando las vidas de millones de individuos que la apoyaron, criticaron, construyeron y atacaron. Hoy se la elogia como smbolo de la identidad china, de su grandeza cultural, y del genio tcnico y la voluntad necesarios para construirla. Pero la Muralla tambin tiene una serie de connotaciones mucho ms negativas: la desolacin de la frontera, a miles de kilmetros del corazn de la cultura china, el sufrimiento y el sacrificio de quienes la construyeron, el costoso expansionismo imperial, el asfixiante conservadurismo cultural, y el control y la represin padecidos por quienes estaban dentro.
