名人/編輯推薦
The authors have made extensive use of the archives—largely unexplored hitherto—of the European and American merchants and companies trading at Canton from 1760 to 1822. They have marshalled their evidence with admirable care and clarity; this will be the indispensable book on the subject for years to come.’ —Patrick Conner, author of The Hongs of Canton: Western Merchants in South China 1700–1900, as Seen in Chinese Export Paintings
‘Canton was the place in the 18th and 19th centuries where Chinese and Western traders met. From there, Chinese commodities and knowledge about China spread over the globe. This detailed study on the factory buildings in Canton, the merchants and the trade they conducted is placed within a carefully documented time frame that allows a much better understanding of these East-West interactions. A most welcome and fascinating book!’ —Christiaan J. A. Jörg, professor emeritus, Leiden University
‘The great trade at Canton before the Opium War provided Europeans and North Americans with the finest images and examples of a distant civilization with many works of great beauty. Paul Van Dyke and Maria Mok are global leaders in our new understanding of the trade and its associated arts. This book will be of interest to all who seek the origins of our modern interchanges of goods, ideas, and beauty.’ —John E. Wills Jr., professor emeritus, University of Southern California
