The English Renaissance and the Far East

Cross-Cultural Encounters

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book offers a timely examination of cultural encounters between Britain, China, and Japan, past and present. It challenges Edward Said's model of East/West relations and offers a radical reconceptualization of the English Renaissance by suggesting it was not so different from the increasingly Sinocentric world we currently inhabit.
