Staging the World

Chinese Nationalism at the Turn of the Twentieth Century

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

""Staging the World" fundamentally challenges the conventional assumptions of late-nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century intellectual history and proposes a creative, alternative imagining of the historiography of modern China. This is a rare work of intellectual ambition and righteous moral sense."--Lionel M. Jensen, author of "Manufacturing Confucianism: Chinese Traditions and Universal Civilization"
