Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on Chinese Mediaeval Travellers to the West This little brochure now presented to the learned world, was originally published in the Chinese Recorder at Shanghai; and I have to thank the editor of that periodical, for the great attention he has paid to the sheets while passing through the press. Being so distant from the place of publication, it was impossible for me to improve or revise these pages. The reader may, on this account, occasionally observe blemishes and inadvertencies. As the first part of these notes was printed before I had begun to write the succeeding portion, there is here and there a want of harmony; and while pursuing further these investigations, I was sometimes obliged to change my views. I beg therefore, that the reader, who may occasionally be struck with seeming contraditions, will peruse the additional notes at the end. In some of my identifications and conclusions, I may sometimes be mistaken. It has always been my endeavour, however, not to impose my views upon the reader, but to lead him to form an opinion for himself, drawn from the facts brought together. Citius emergit veritas ex errore quam ex confusione. In publishing these pages, the principal object in view has been to furnish savants interested in the ancient history and geography of Asia, with some interesting materials found in ancient Chinese literature. I have tried to make these translations as correct as possible, and it seems to me, that Peking is the only place, where such investigations can be successfully made; for the greater part of the ancient Chinese books required for reference can hardly be found in any European library, or in other libraries elsewhere in China.

Download or read book Before European Hegemony written by Janet L. Abu-Lughod and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1991-02-21 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this important study, Abu-Lughod presents a groundbreaking reinterpretation of global economic evolution, arguing that the modern world economy had its roots not in the sixteenth century, as is widely supposed, but in the thirteenth century economy--a system far different from the European world system which emerged from it. Using the city as the working unit of analysis, Before European Hegemony provides a new paradigm for understanding the evolution of world systems by tracing the rise of a system that, at its peak in the opening decades of the 14th century, involved a vast region stretching between northwest Europe and China. Writing in a clear and lively style, Abu-Lughod explores the reasons for the eventual decay of this system and the rise of European hegemony.
