Excerpt from London Through Chinese Eyes: Or My Seven and a Half Years in London In dedicating the present volume to the British People a word or two seems not unnecessary. We have called it "London through Chinese Eyes" or "My Seven and a half Years in London," but there is no pretence whatsoever at discussion of serious or weighty subjects affecting politics, industry, commerce, etc. The chapters here deal only with superficial topics and represent merely one's impressions and reminiscences. The best title to this volume is the Chinese legend (to be read vertically from top downwards): Liu Ying Kuan Ku'ei Chi, which literally means "looking at London through the opening of a bamboo pole." We started to write soon after we had returned from England and succeeded in getting through Chapter XVIII before we had to leave the quiet atmosphere of Tsing Hua College for the more exciting task of starting a Chinese daily newspaper in the English language. That caused an interruption of eighteen months, since a journalist's life is never one of ease and luxury. But the continuance of the submarine warfare has also been responsible for this delay: we sent off the first half of our MS. to the publishers in December 1917, but their letter of acknowledgment never arrived in Peking until November 1918 although it was dated February of that year! This change of profession during the intervening period is therefore responsible for the "I" in the first half of the book and the habitual editorial "We" in the latter half.

This study points up the complex and intricate interplay of ethnic and national identities in the lives of Chinese in Britain. A constant thread across two hundred years of Chinese presence has been the vigour of British national identity among migrants' descendants. This study argues that transnational studies reinforce essentialist conceptions of identity and of cultural authenticity in diasporic communities, and thus frustrate the promotion of ethnic co-existence and social cohesion in multi-ethnic societies.

The focus of this book is on Chinese immigration in the past two decades and its spatial manifestations in Britain. A major argument in this study is that if the 1980s can be recorded as a turning point in the history of Chinese immigration to Britain because the decade marked a substantial increase in and a diversity of Chinese immigrants, it should also be considered a landmark in contemporary British urban history as it featured a major transformation in the Chinese urban landscape. This book examines how changes in the contexts of exit and reception have stimulated quantitative and qualitative changes in Chinese immigration, and how these changes in immigration facilitate the development of Chinatowns and Chinese settlements.

This book provides a critical study of how China was represented on the historical London stage in selected examples from the late seventeenth century to the early twentieth century—which corresponds with the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), China’s last monarchy. The examples show that during this historical period, the stage representations of the country were influenced in turn by Jesuit writings on China, Britain’s expanding material interest in China, the presence of British imperial power in Asia, and the establishment of diasporic Chinese communities abroad. While finding that many of these works may be read as gendered and feminized, Chang emphasizes that the Jesuits’ depiction of China as a country of high culture and in perennial conflict with the Tartars gradually lost prominence in dramatic imaginations to depictions of China’s material and visual attractions. Central to the book’s argument is that the stage representations of China were inherently intercultural and open to new influences, manifested by the evolving combinations of Chinese and English (British) traits. Through the dramatization of the Chinese Other, the representations questioned, satirized, and put in sharp relief the ontological and epistemological bases of the English (British) Self.
