reviewed English Lessons: The Pedagogy of Imperialism in Nineteenth-Century China on May 26, 2013 English Lessons
English Lessons is a fascinating look into relationships between China and Western countries. I recommend paying attention to the terminology in the introduction, as this is written in an academic style and the definitions of colonialism and imperialism are extremely important to understanding the book. Readers unfamiliar with this period of history will find Hevia's introductions to each section helpful. The parts of the book on the significance of the looting of the Summer Palace and distribution of photographs of the Forbidden City to the way European and American countries viewed China were particularly compelling to me.
