Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Memoirs of Li Hung Chang' presents an extensive and narrative account of the life of the preeminent Chinese statesman, diplomat, and general who served the Qing Empire during the tumultuous nineteenth century. This work explores the complex political landscape of late Imperial China, detaili…ng the subject's pivotal role in the Taiping Rebellion, his efforts to modernize the nation's military and industry, and his intricate diplomatic negotiations with foreign powers including Russia, Japan, and the West.Through these pages, readers gain insight into the sophisticated worldview of a man who bridged the gap between traditional Chinese governance and the pressures of global modernization. The text captures the essence of Li's career, from his rise within the scholar-official class to his position as a primary advisor to the Empress Dowager Cixi. Whether viewed as a historical record or a compelling piece of biographical narrative, 'Memoirs of Li Hung Chang' remains a significant text for understanding the intersection of East and West at the dawn of the twentieth century. This work is an essential read for those interested in Asian history, international relations, and the life of one of China's most enduring political figures.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Hardbound. Zustand: Very Good +. First Edition. An example of early 20th century literary forgery. The author claimed to be the editor of the work, and that the contents consisted of the abridged and translated text of the memoirs of the powerful late Qing Dynasty statesman and military leader, Li Hong Chang [Li Hongzhang]. The…book was initially accepted by a prominent publishing house, major newspapers, expert Sinologists and old China hands as genuine, but several years later was exposed by scholars and Li's descendants as a forgery. Mannix, a scoundrel and serial prankster, had actually written the volume while in prison, based on his own research; he succeeded in creating a credible text by employing language that played into Western stereotypes of Chinese, and even convinced an eminent American diplomat and former Secretary of State, John W. Foster, to write an extended introduction to the work. The only genuine element in the volume is the frontispiece portrait of Li himself. In the end a fascinating early case of Chinese cultural appropriation by a Westerner - there are at least three modern translations of the book into Chinese. Slight darkening of spine cloth; otherwise solidly bound and clean throughout - a near fine copy. xxvii, 298 pp., 1 sepia portrait of Li Hong Chang. Size: 23 x 15 cm.

First Edition. Sepia photographic portrait frontispiece with tissue-guard, xvii + 298pp. Yellow cloth covered boards, a little soiled and sunned on the spine, inner hinges cracked but the text block is firm and very clean. 22 x15cm. This book when published was regarded as the genuine autobiography of the Chinese viceroy and mil…itary leader Li Hongzhang, but it was later discovered that it had been written by "a vagabond newspaper man in a Honolulu jail". A very interesting example of a literary forgery.
