Historians of China have described this process in stark terms: pristine borderlands became breadbaskets. Yet Manchu and Mongolian archives reveal a different story. Well before homesteaders arrived, wild objects from the far north became part of elite fashion, and unprecedented consumption had exhausted the region's most precious resources. In A World Trimmed with Fur, Jonathan Schlesinger uses these diverse archives to reveal how Qing rule witnessed not the destruction of unspoiled environments, but their invention. Qing frontiers were never pristine in the nineteenth century?pearlers had stripped riverbeds of mussels, mushroom pickers had uprooted the steppe, and fur-bearing animals had disappeared from the forest. In response, the court turned to "purification;" it registered and arrested poachers, reformed territorial rule, and redefined the boundary between the pristine and the corrupted. Schlesinger's resulting analysis provides a framework for rethinking the global invention of nature. 606 $aLuxuries$zChina$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aLuxuries$zChina$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aNatural resources$zChina$zManchuria$xHistory 606 $aNatural resources$zMongolia$xHistory 606 $aRestoration ecology$zChina$zManchuria$xHistory 606 $aRestoration ecology$zMongolia$xHistory 607 $aChina$xKings and rulers$xSocial life and customs 607 $aChina$xHistory$yQing dynasty, 1644-1912 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aLuxuries$xHistory 615 0$aLuxuries$xHistory 615 0$aNatural resources$xHistory. 615 0$aNatural resources$xHistory. 615 0$aRestoration ecology$xHistory. 615 0$aRestoration ecology$xHistory. 676 $a951/.03 686 $aNO 8500$qBVB$2rvk 700 $aSchlesinger$b Jonathan, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0781227 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154628503321 996 $aA World Trimmed with Fur$92800753 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02309nam 2200457Ia 450 001 996389581403316 005 20210104171908.0 035 $a(CKB)4940000000097745 035 $a(EEBO)2264193185 035 $a(OCoLC)ocn945446616e 035 $a(OCoLC)945446616 035 $a(EXLCZ)994940000000097745 100 $a20160323d1693 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurbn||||a|bb| 200 14$aThe academy of armory, or, A store-house of armory and blazon$b[electronic resource] $econtaining the several variety of created beings, and how born in coats of arms, both foreign and domestick : with the instruments used in all trades and sciences, together with their terms of art : also the etymologies, definitions, and historical observations on the same, explicated and explained according to our modern language : very useful for all gentlemen, scholars, divines, and all such as desire any knowledge in arts and sciences /$fby Randle Holme of the city of Chester, gentleman sewer in extraordinary to His Late Majesty King Charles the Second, and sometimes deputy to the King of Arms 210 $aLondon $cPrinted for the author, and are to be sold by Richard Chiswell, at the Rose and Crown in St. Paul's Church-yard$dMDCXCIII.
