Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Chinese Note Book The following Notes were not penned in the presumptuous hope of adding materially to the existing knowledge of the subjects with which they deal. The first part of this book was the result of much reading, in a land where time is apt to hang heavily on the hands of the unemployed. Having collected many facts, I was tempted to put them together in an easy and consecutive form, regretting only that for obvious reasons I was prevented from bringing the historic notes up to date. Those pages in which the descriptive element predominates were written at the instigation of friends at home, and primarily for their amusement, whilst the account of my various experiences at the Chinese Court were undertaken with a View to faithfully putting on record the manner of those receptions in which, after so long and rigorous a seclusion, the reigning Son of Heaven and his Imperial Mother at last condescended (driven no doubt by foreign pressure) to put aside the veil which for centuries had shrouded the faces of majesty in China.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from England Through Chinese Spectacles: Leaves From the Notebook of Wo Chang Without needlessly obtruding my personality and antecedents upon my readers, I deem it convenient to state briefly the origin of the present work. Innumerable volumes by English authors have appeared during the past half century, containing criticisms of the institutions, customs, religion, laws, and people of China. In most instances these works are from the pens of the "globetrotting" tribe, whose superficial impressions of a country and population so vast, ancient, and unique, must be regarded by every cultured Englishman as necessarily worthless. They are ignorant of the language and literature of our great sages and guides in philosophy, history, and romance. They touch at one or two coast towns, and possibly extend their journeys to the capital, but are just as unfit to appreciate the inner life of the people as a blind man would be to comprehend the artistic masterpieces of the National Gallery, or as one who is deaf would be to enjoy the music of a Handel Festival. Among Englishmen who have committed to print their opinions of my great and much misunderstood country, there are some noble and generous exceptions to the rule just alluded to.

Book excerpt: Long interested in the history of China and in the countries of the Silk Road, she has travelled widely in Asia and Europe, seeking places with their historical connections. Her encounter with James Legge combined her professional interests with her interests in Asian history. The challenging events that James Legge experienced across his life in Hong Kong revealed his exceptional linguistic talents and steadfast resilience, her own "peculiar department", as Legge described his interests. As she discovered his rich blend of talent and resilience in a setting of great political and cultural conflict, she wanted more people to know about this outstanding man.

Download or read book Progressive Exercises in the Chinese Written Language (Classic Reprint) written by T. L. Bullock and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-23 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progressive Exercises in the Chinese Written Language At the present day most students of Chinese, before applying themselves to the Literary or Documentary Language, devote a good deal of time to the Spoken Language, which they learn with the aid of manuals and exercise books. In so doing they acquire the knowledge of a considerable number of written Chinese words, or characters. Thus equipped, they are able satisfactorily to commence their attack upon whatever book they may choose for the purpose of initiating themselves into the mysteries of Literary Chinese. But very different is the position of the learner who wishes to begin his studies with the written language, and sets to work on, perhaps, the Classics, or, perhaps, a collection of Despatches, with absolutely no knowledge of any characters beyond the radicals. He is bewildered by the number of new words that he meets with in every line. He is not merely unable to grasp properly the construction of the sentences before him; but he is also hindered by the multiplicity of strange forms from learning even the characters themselves. It is specially to aid the beginner who wishes to go straight to the literary language, that these Exercises have been compiled; though it is hoped that other students may be able to work through them with advantage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This carefully crafted ebook: “THE CONFIDENCE-MAN (Modern Classics Series)” is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. The Confidence-Man is an ambiguous figure who sneaks aboard a Mississippi steamboat on April Fool's Day. This stranger attempts to test the confidence of the several steamboat passengers whose interlocking stories are told as they travel down the Mississippi River toward New Orleans. The novel is written as cultural satire, allegory, and metaphysical treatise, dealing with themes of sincerity, identity, morality, religiosity, economic materialism, irony, and cynicism. Herman Melville's writing draws on his experience at sea as a common sailor, exploration of literature and philosophy, and engagement in the contradictions of American society in a period of rapid change. His best known works include Typee, a romantic account of his experiences in Polynesian life, its sequel Omoo, and the great classic Moby-Dick.
