Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Face of China is devoted to the works of such largely unsung photographers as Felice A. Beato, John Thomson, E. H. Wilson, the White Brothers, and Thomas Childe. Most tended to focus on the rarefied and exotic. Who could resist the staggering architecture: the Great Wall, the magnificent battlements of Peking, or the rococo retreats of the mandarins? Or the mandarins themselves: prosperous gentlemen whose tiny-footed wives wore embroidered silk coveted by the soigne of Paris and London."--BOOK JACKET. "A few photographers saw more than the elevated society and resplendent architecture, and ventured in search of the less visible China. Felice Beatro traveled with the Anglo-French armies to depict the conquest of Tientsin and the sacking of the Imperial summer Palace. With a documentarian's eye, John Thomson directed his lens at both the imperial family and its subjects. His prints contrast the great distance between ruler and ruled, warning of more upheaval in a country already torn and, equally important, fixing forever subtle attitudes and mores. Using cumbersome equipment, Donald Mennie and the White Brothers photographed the dreamlike and harmonious panoramas so beloved by great Chinese landscape artists."--BOOK JACKET.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encyclopedia of Nineteenth-Century Photography is the first comprehensive encyclopedia of world photography up to the beginning of the twentieth century. It sets out to be the standard, definitive reference work on the subject for years to come. Its coverage is global – an important ‘first’ in that authorities from all over the world have contributed their expertise and scholarship towards making this a truly comprehensive publication. The Encyclopedia presents new and ground-breaking research alongside accounts of the major established figures in the nineteenth century arena. Coverage includes all the key people, processes, equipment, movements, styles, debates and groupings which helped photography develop from being ‘a solution in search of a problem’ when first invented, to the essential communication tool, creative medium, and recorder of everyday life which it had become by the dawn of the twentieth century. The sheer breadth of coverage in the 1200 essays makes the Encyclopedia of Nineteenth-Century Photography an essential reference source for academics, students, researchers and libraries worldwide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As the Ch’ing government’s Inspector General of the Maritime Customs Service, Robert Hart was the most influential Westerner in China for half a century. These journal entries continue the sequence begun in Entering China’s Service and cover the years when Hart was setting up Customs procedures, establishing a modus operandi with the Ch’ing bureaucracy, and inspecting the treaty ports. They culminate in Hart’s return visit to Europe with the Pin-ch’un Mission and his marriage in Northern Ireland. Smith, Fairbank, and Bruner interleave the segments of Hart’s journals with lively narratives describing the contemporary Chinese scene and recounting Hart’s responses to the many challenges of establishing a Western-style organization within a Chinese milieu."

Download or read book Life in Treaty Port China and Japan written by Donna Brunero and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-30 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume moves beyond the traditional examination of the treaty ports of China and Japan as places of cultural interaction. It moves ‘beyond the Bund’, presenting instead the history of material culture, the everyday life of the residents of the treaty ports beyond the symbology of Shanghai's waterfront. Bringing for the first time together scholars of China and Japan, museum curators, legal, economic and architectural historians, it studies the treaty ports not only as sites of cultural exchange, but also as sites of social contestation, accommodation and mobility, covering topics as varied as day to day life itself, such as family, property and law, health and welfare, travel, visual culture and memory. The call of this volume is to peel the multiple layers of the encounter between East and West in the treaty ports of China and Japan.
