哈达德教授演讲内容 英文简介 Excursions to China in Early America

Before the start of the steamship era, only American merchants, missionaries, and government officials undertook the long voyage to China.  Yet ordinary Americans in eastern cities did have opportunities to learn about China and examine Chinese artifacts.  They could even meet Chinese people on American soil before the advent of Chinese immigration.  That is because a handful of enterprising American merchants and government officials brought Chinese collections and even Chinese people to the United States for display before 1850.  This presentation tells the story of these early, and quite curious, Sino-American encounters.
