Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Condition: FINE. Dust Jacket Condition: FINE. Second Edition. 173pp. 8vo in navy cloth with gilt stamped lettering and owl of minerva device to front cover. Exceedingly clean and sharp in like DJ. Second Printing. 'China and Europe traces the far-reaching influence China had on Europe during the 18th century. Under the heading of Rococo it shows the influence of Chinese porcelain, lacquer, silk, embroideries, wall-papers, painting (especially on Watteau), and agriculture. It traces the influence of Confucius on Leibniz, Voltaire, the Encyclopaedists, and others; the derivation of Quesnay's theories from the Chinese doctrine of the State; the adoption of the Chinese garden and its effects on water-colour painting. A full chapter is given to Goethe and his Chinese sources; while the conclusion describes the waning of interest in things Chinese, and the increased interest in European antiquities and in India.'.
