Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-61186-0 (ISBN)
In addition to a discussion of the Sogdians and Turks in medieval China, an investigation of the localization process of pugs and lions through different Chinese dynasties, an analysis of the incorporation of Manichaeism into Chinese culture, and the depiction of the "Kunlun slaves" in Chinese Buddhist texts, this book also examines the "caravan tea" trade between Russia and China, the Russian-American company's attempt to do business in Canton, the translation of the Three Character Classic in Russia, the "Russian case" in the Tianjin missionary incident, as well as the Dutch factory in Canton and the Dutch mission in Beijing. This book concludes with a discussion of Chinese workers in Southeast Asia in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. From Central Asia to the South China Sea to the northern border with Russia, this book reveals its great diversity, yet with an intense focus on China's interactions with the outside world.
This book will be essential reading for students and scholars of Chinese studies, medieval Central Asian studies, and those interested in world history.
Cai Hongsheng was Professor of History at Sun Yat-sen University, China. He specialized in the history of Sino-foreign relations, particularly the research about ancient Turks and Buddhism in the Tang period, and the Canton trade in the Qing dynasty.
