The European Canton Trade 1723: Competition and cooperation

摘要

This collection of source material on European trade in Canton in 1723 originated as a teaching project at the Eberhard Karls Universit?t in Tübingen. It was conceived as a way of encouraging students to read and engage with primary sources, and, more ambitiously, it is intended 'to contribute to a larger scholarship on the early China trade' (acknowledgement).
