Descrizione China and the Church
"A fascinating and provocative thesis that ties early modern European representations of China and the Chinese into a cohesive narrative."--Diane Fourny, University of Kansas "Cogently argued in refreshingly lucid prose, China and the Church offers a provocative and wholly new perspective on European chinoiserie. Bringing an impressive array of new research to bear on the subject, the book presents a vivid and powerful account of the cultural, political, and artistic contexts that produced chinoiserie. Johns seriously reconsiders chinoiserie as a cross-cultural phenomenon, deeply shaped by cultural exchange, trade, and global politics."--Melissa Hyde, University of Florida
