By proposing a liberal cosmopolitanism model, Mingjun Lu explores early modern interactions with the 'other' through the lens of globalization theory and English Renaissance literature. This approach challenges traditional colonial and Orientalist frameworks, revealing a nuanced understanding of cultural pluralism during the 1570s-1670s. Lu uncovers previously unrecognized Chinese influences in Western culture, highlighting their significant impact on English literary imagination and expanding the discourse on East-West contact in early modern contexts.
