Reviews
"James Hevia persuasively suggests a whole new way of viewing not just the Macartney embassy but the entire subject of Sino-Western interaction from the eighteenth century to the present. Cherishing Men from Afar deserves to be read by the widest spectrum of historians."-Paul A. Cohen, John King Fairbank Center for East Asian Research, Harvard University, " Cherishing Men From Afar , extremely impressive in its marshalling of basic Qing material, accomplishes something quite remarkable: the product of a postmodern critical sensibility, it will also satisfy the most traditional of scholars on sinological grounds."-William T. Rowe, Johns Hopkins University, James Hevias fine book shows what revisionism, executed properly, can achieve. . . . Hevia approaches [his] topic from refreshingly innovative angles and, in so doing, provides fodder for thought in several important areas, including the British and Chinese styles of Imperial formation and the traditional Chinese rulership and statecraft. --John Lee, Canadian Journal of History|9780822316374|, " Cherishing Men From Afar , extremely impressive in its marshalling of basic Qing material, accomplishes something quite remarkable: the product of a postmodern critical sensibility, it will also satisfy the most traditional of scholars on sinological grounds."--William T.
