China from the Ruins of Athens and Rome: Classics, Sinology, and Romanticism, 1793-1938 - Classical Presences
Murray, Chris (Lecturer in Literary Studies, Lecturer in Literary Studies, Monash University)

This volume reveals key insights into British cosmopolitanism, which sought its bearings in the ancient past in encounters with Qing Dynasty China.
