Borrowed gods and foreign bodies

Description:

"Borrowed Gods and Foreign Bodies is a look at how missionaries' religious identities, experiences, and physical foreignness produced certain representations of China between 1807 and 1937." "Reinders' work offers surprising and valuable insight into the visceral nature of the Victorian response to the Chinese - and, more generally, into the nineteenth-century Western representation of China."--BOOK JACKET.
