| China Through Western Eyes (CTWE) is a project to digitize and provide online access to materials important to Sinophiles and scholars of China studies. These materials are ones in which Western foreigners wrote and described what they saw and encountered in China from about the 16th century until 1911, in which year the revolution led by Dr. Sun Yat-sen successfully overthrew the Manchu Dynasty, and thus began the modern China era. The printed materials, from which these online files were made, are housed in HKUL's Special Collections. Eventually CTWE will hold approximately 173,000 scanned pages from 389 titles in English, French, German, Spanish, Dutch, Italian and Latin. |
