Excerpt from The Real Chinaman
Like her, we are inclined to measure all people by a yardstick of our own construction, the model for which is found in ourselves. Others are right or wrong, wise or unwise, according as they copy or depart from the fashion which we have arbitra rily set up, the ideal formed within the essentially narrow limits of our personal surroundings.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the complex world of China as it existed in the late 19th century. The author, having spent years living in the country, provides a unique and insightful perspective on Chinese society, culture, and politics. He delves into the intricate workings of the Chinese government, which he argues is more akin to a system of paternalism than an absolute despotism. The book also explores the unique aspects of Chinese family life, social customs, and religious beliefs, revealing the profound influence of Confucianism and the pervasive nature of superstition. He also examines the ongoing tension between Chinaââ â¢s traditional way of life and the increasing influence of the Western world, particularly in the wake of the Opium Wars. The authorââ â¢s close observation of the Chinese people, from their daily routines to their political attitudes, helps to dispel commonly held misconceptions about this ancient civilization and reveals the richness and complexity of Chinese life. This book is a compelling exploration of Chinaââ â¢s history, culture, and social dynamics, offering a nuanced perspective that challenges common stereotypes and invites readers to see China through a new lens. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
