中外文化因緣"This book covers the major events and developments throughout the several thousand years of cultural relations between China and the outside world - from remote antiquity to 1949. The author uses vivid description, ancient legends, archaeological data and Chinese and foreign literature - all carefully chosen and verified. The main focus of the book includes three aspects: first, an introduction of the historic "bridge" and passages of the East-West cultural exchange; second, an explanation of the scope and scale of such exchanges; and third, an analysis of the inter-action of Chinese and foreign cultures and a look at the future of Chinese culture." -- BOOK JACKET. |
