Beskrivelse
Summary:"Chinese Sympathies analyzes key German literary texts by placing scholarship on early modern Chinese empires and missionaries in conjunction with German media theory from the last twenty-five years (most notably, Friedrich Kittler). Daniel Leonhard Purdy traces a connection from Baroque-era missionary reports that accommodated Christianity with Confucianism to Goethe's concept of world literature, bridged by Enlightenment debates over cosmopolitanism and sympathy."--
