内容简介

What was the cultural impact of early meetings between Chinese and Europeans? This book explores visual, literary, and scholarly representations of the Celestial Empire and Western countries against the backdrop of actual encounters. Based on rare Chinese and, correspondingly, European (especially Dutch) sources and archival documents, the volume covers a range of cultural expressions from the applied arts to philosophy. Special attention goes to the ideals and realities of trade and diplomacy of the Dutch East India Company in China. Foreign Devils and Philosophersapproaches global history from a cultural perspective and illuminates the reciprocal dynamic of aversion and admiration: Chinese and Westerners could appear as sages or savages in each other's eyes.

中国与欧洲的早期相遇经历了哪些文化碰撞？本书探讨了相遇背景下，中西方在视觉、文学及学术上的表现。基于稀见的中、欧（尤其是荷兰）史料和档案，本书涵盖了从实用艺术到哲学的一系列文化表达，尤其关注荷兰东印度公司在对华贸易与外交领域中所呈现的理想与现实状态。Foreign Devils and Philosophers 从文化的视角研究全球历史，阐明了中、西方厌恶与欣赏的互动关系：在彼此的眼中，中国人与西方人可能既是圣人，也是野蛮人。
