Abstract (Chinese)
在清朝的最后五十年慈禧太后统治中国。多年以来,她被描述为一个残忍并狂妄自 大的人, 但近来对慈禧的描述却有些不同。这篇文章解析了这些资料是怎样描述 发生在慈禧,光绪皇帝及珍妃之间的具体事件的。本文的目的是探讨这些资料所展 现出的慈禧是怎样的一个人,这或许会让人们认识到一个更为真实的慈禧。
Abstract (Swedish)
Änkekejsarinnan Cixi styrde Kina under kejsardömets sista halvsekel. Hon utmålades länge som maktgalen och grym, men på senare tid har en mer nyanserad bild presenterats. I den här uppsatsen analyseras hur ett antal händelser i Cixis liv i relation till Guangxu-kejsaren och hans konkubin Zhenfei har beskrivits i olika källor. Syftet är att se vad dessa händelser säger om Cixi som person och om det är möjligt att få en klar och sann bild av henne.
Abstract
Empress Dowager Cixi governed China during the final five decades of the Qing dynasty. She was for many years depicted as a cruel megalomaniac, lately Cixi has been described in a more nuanced way. This paper seeks to analyze how a selection of sources describe a number of specific events in connection with Cixi and the Guangxu-emperor and his concubine Zhenfei. The objective is to discuss what this reveals about Cixi as an individual and evaluate whether it is possible for historians to arrive at a more truthful picture.
