Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, published in 1888, is a compilation of the original Chinese language text and English vocabulary of a document titled HSIN KUAN WEN CHIEN LU. The original is an 1873 publication whose primary purpose was to serve as a reference guidebook for Chinese Customs Service officers. The document is a fascinating glimpse into the world of historical Chinese maritime and foreign commercial practices, with a particular focus on the methods used for categorizing, taxing, and tracking duties and the commodities that were traded. The inclusion of the original document alongside a vocabulary not only makes this book a relic of Chinese language and bureaucracy but also a valuable resource for scholars and historians specializing in the history of trade in China. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282027940_0
