Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book provides a critical analysis of the interactions between European embassies and the Chinese court, particularly contrasting the British and Dutch embassies' receptions. It addresses misconceptions about the British Embassy's failure, refuting claims made by a French missionary. The narrative includes Kien Long's correspondence with the King of Holland, highlights the pride of the Chinese court, and discusses the role of missionaries in foreign affairs. It concludes with a comprehensive list of European embassies in Beijing and their durations.
