Excerpt from Glimpses Into Chinese Homes ET us look into the homes of China, and thus shall we learn of the hearts of its people, for the home is the mirror of the heart. The passions, tastes and imaginations of the soul are all portrayed in the abiding-place of the body. Chinese character, politics, religions and social customs, are all shown in its domes tic relations. And, indeed, is not the home, anywhere, an epitome of national life, its institutions and sentiments Inasmuch as we understand the determinate quantity of family life, insomuch do we know the trend of national existence. Rome, in the zenith of her power, governed but one hundred and twenty millions of men. The boy Emperor of China sways his sceptre over three times that number. What roofs cover these hearts? Under what conditions are they abiding? Hundreds of thousands are born, live, and die on boats. By far the greatest portion of this class of people is found in the southern part of the Empire. The waters about Can ton are the most densely populated; yet this style of living prevails, to some extent, in all latitudes of the country.

Excerpt from Home Life in China The home life of a people is too sacred to be touched except by the hand of friendship. The doors of our homes all open inward, and our latch should not be lifted except by those who love us. Enter if you will as brother, sister, friend; but once you have entered, go not away to scoff or ridicule. Our enemies may enter our yamens, our factories, our business, but they come not into our homes. Our doors are closed to strangers, locked to enemies, and opened only to those of our own race who are in harmony and sympathy with us. In this study of Chinese Home Life I have not sought things to criticize; I have not hunted for comparisons with our own which might appear often as odious to us as to them; I have not tried to find things to commend; I have simply tried to find them and tell them as they are. But I have always done it in a kindly spirit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Child Life in China After a while I learned to speak to them in their own language. They would follow me in large numbers along the narrow streets, and gather round me wonderingly as I sat down on the green slopes of their city wall.

Excerpt from Village and Town Life in China Many books have been written about China by Europeans. The present volume is a book about China by two Chinese. They are, moreover, Chinese who have had considerable opportunities of studying other forms of civilization than their own, having lived in England as students for some years. Mr. Tao obtained the b.sc. Degree in Economics at the University of London in 1913, and is now lecturing on Sociology in the University of Pekin. Mr. Leong took the same degree in 1914, and is still a student in the Sociological Department at the London School of Economics. Both have interested themselves especially in social philosophy and the comparative study of institutions, so that if they justly regard their own institutions with the feelings of patriotic Chinese, they are able equally to see them in relation to the customs of other peoples, and to review their merits and defects with a certain detachment. No doubt their point of View is not always that of the English reader. But, on the other hand, the point of view of Europeans who write on China is not that of Chinese, and for the full understanding of a great Empire, which.

Excerpt from Social Life in the Chinese: A Daguerreotype of Daily Life in China The reader is invited to the perusal of an original work on the inner life of the most ancient and populous, but least under stood and appreciated of nations. In it an attempt is made to describe many of their singular custom and opinions relating to almost all subjects of interest, and also to give their own explanation of the origin or the rationale of some of them. If an undue colouring or prominence has been given to any custom, or a false statement has been made in regard to any subject, no one will regret it more sincerely than the Author.

Excerpt from English Life in China Hong Kong - Jericho - Timbuctoo! Are not these names used indifferently to represent the extreme of remoteness? Do not nine out of ten, even among well-informed English gentlemen, consider the first named a place with which we have little in common though it be a British possession, or at all events of little momentous interest? And are they not of opinion that its contingent loss need not, to any material extent, affect our national prosperity? Yet Hong Kong, apart from its military and naval value as our most advanced outpost in the far East, and from its commercial interest represented by an annual average British exchange of about forty-two millions sterling, is marked by characteristic advantages unparalleled in any single one of our other possessions.
