Abstract:
AbstractFrom 1844 to 1845, the translation problems with the Supplementary Treaty (aka Treaty of the Bogue) and the Treaty of Nanking were revealed through successive back translations by Walter Henry Medhurst in the Chinese Repository. A comparison of the official Chinese and English language versions of the two treaties shows noteworthy problems of addition, omission, and misinterpretation. These translation problems can be understood and interpreted in the light of the fact that the Qing side had relinquished the right to employ its own translators and knew little about the principles of in

Abstract:
This paper examines translation manipulation strategies employed by Chinese and British negotiators and translators in the English Chinese translation of the Treaty of Nanking (1842) and explores the psychological dynamics behind these practices. From the perspective of Lefevere’s translation manipulation theory, the study uncovers how translation served as a tool to mediate power asymmetries and cultural differences between the two parties through a detailed text-analytical approach. The findings highlight deliberate textual manipulations, including rhetorical adjustments omissions, and addit

Abstract:
As china's leading “treaty port” city, Shanghai has long been stereotyped as the prime bridgehead for foreign encroachment on China and as the most westernized city of the country (Tang and Shen 1989: introduction). Recent scholarship in the West still refers to Shanghai as “the other China,” “in China but not of it,” “a foreign city even in its own country” (Bergere 1981; Murphey 1992:346; Clifford 1991:9). In the first half of the twentieth century, was the influence of the West in Shanghai so strong that the city was alienated from the rest of China? Was Shanghai firmly in the grip of moder

Abstract:
Hong Kong has been part of Chinese territory since ancient times. Before the British occupation, Hong Kong had achieved considerable development in agriculture, fisheries, the salt industry, transportation, cultural undertakings and education. It was by no means a desolate and barren land at that time. British troops occupied Hong Kong Island on 25 January 1841 during the Opium War. In August 1842, the British government formally annexed Hong Kong Island by forcing the Qing government to conclude the Sino-British Treaty of Nanking. In the Second Opium War, British troops forcibly occupied Kowl

Abstract:
This study explores how European botanical science, introduced by foreign missionaries, transformed the intellectual and environmental landscape of premodern China. By examining the transnational exchange of scientific ideas, the paper highlights the role of missionaries, particularly Jesuits and Protestants, in promoting Western botany within a highly sophisticated Chinese intellectual framework. Despite cultural barriers, missionaries sought to integrate a Christian understanding of nature into Chinese episteme, using botanical studies as a conduit for proselytization. The research focuses o

Abstract:
This study examines the impact of microfinance on the social performance of local households in the Kassena Nankana East District of northern Ghana. The study’s primary objective was to measure the average effect of the common social performance framework’s core indicators (outreach and products and services) on beneficiaries. Because the social performance management framework is an institutional-based evaluation, it is silent on changes in the service users’ lives. This study modified the common social performance management framework to treat outreach and products and services as independen

Abstract:
The history of Hong Kong ferry services began with the establishment of the colony of the British Empire after the Treaty of Nanking. The ferry system was the foundation of public transport in Hong Kong. This study adopts the concept of centre-periphery theory to explain how ferry services facilitate regional integration in Hong Kong, notably on Outlying Islands, and describe how better transportation influenced the course of development of the communities of the peripheral islands. Through an intensive documentary investigation and in-depth interviews with the islanders, this study undertakes

Abstract:
The Warlike party believed it had the right to petition both the Chinese and British governments to have its voice heard and to obtain the justice it deserved. In this spirit, which seemed to be a product of enlightenment but was actually imperialism, the party engaged the Chinese government and went to London to lobby for war in 1835 and 1839. They met with Foreign Secretary Lord Palmerston and finally won his support in late 1839. They supplied him with a war strategy and, crucially, with knowledge of the weakness of Chinese military defences, which suggested that the war was easily winnable
