Abstract
|
:
|
Through readings of novels, medical case studies, travelers' reports, photographs, and paintings, this book shows that in the West the connection between sympathy and humanity, and indeed between sympathy and reality, has tended to refract with a remarkable frequency through the lens called 'China.'
