Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Glimpses Into Chinese Homes ET us look into the homes of China, and thus shall we learn of the hearts of its people, for the home is the mirror of the heart. The passions, tastes and imaginations of the soul are all portrayed in the abiding-place of the body. Chinese character, politics, religions and social customs, are all shown in its domes tic relations. And, indeed, is not the home, anywhere, an epitome of national life, its institutions and sentiments Inasmuch as we understand the determinate quantity of family life, insomuch do we know the trend of national existence. Rome, in the zenith of her power, governed but one hundred and twenty millions of men. The boy Emperor of China sways his sceptre over three times that number. What roofs cover these hearts? Under what conditions are they abiding? Hundreds of thousands are born, live, and die on boats. By far the greatest portion of this class of people is found in the southern part of the Empire. The waters about Can ton are the most densely populated; yet this style of living prevails, to some extent, in all latitudes of the country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chinese Ladies at Home Nanking Road is the fashionable drive, and in the late afternoon it is thronged with people, both Chinese and foreign, showing-oh themselves and their carriages. Carriage attendants are called, Mafoo, and no matter how many there may be the coachman is. No. I. Mafoo; these creatures are the most ludicrous to be seen in Shanghai. Picture, and keep from smiling if you can, a lady dressed in the latest Parisian fashion driving in a stylish dog cart with her Mafoo (footman) standing behind, dressed in a dirty white night shirt looking garment upon which lies his long black queue like a spinal column, and on his head a light brown Fedora.' This is not an exaggeration. I saw it. The Mafoo are miserable looking beings in a laughable uniform, but in a fine one they look worse, for then the dirt and general unattractiveness of the wearer is accentuated. The really correct dress for a Mafoo could not be told, for fancy seemed to run riot. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Glimpses of China and Chinese Homes Classic Reprint written by Edward Sylvester Morse and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Glimpses of China and Chinese Homes Chinese Characteristics. Dr. Smith was for twenty-two years connected with the American Board of Foreign Missions in China. He says: The circumstance that a person has lived twenty-two years in China is no more a guarantee that he is competent to write of the charac teristics of the Chinese than the fact that another man has lived for twenty-two years in a silver mine is proof that he is a fit person to compose a treatise on metal lurgy or bi-metalism. This is unquestionably too modest, as will be realized by any one who has read his remarkable analysis of Chinese character, yet it may stand as a warning to those who generalize about the Chinese on slight acquaintance. Whatever conclusions I have come to, superficial as they may be, are curiously borne out by the testimony of others who have spent as many years in the Empire as I have days, and have travelled as many thousand miles in the country as I have single miles. Most of this material appeared first in a series of ar ticles in the American Architect under the title of Journal Sketches in China, and to the publishers of that journal, and to its editor, Mr. William Rotch Ware, I am indebted for the privilege of publishing them in book-form. A number of sketches have been added. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
