Librett. 330 $a"Over the course of the eighteenth century, European intellectuals shifted from admiring China as a utopian place of wonder to despising it as a backwards and despotic state. That transformation had little to do with changes in China itself, and everything to do with Enlightenment conceptions of political identity and Europe's own burgeoning global power. China in the German Enlightenment considers the place of German philosophy, particularly the work of Leibniz, Goethe, Herder, and Hegel, in this development. Beginning with the first English translation of Walter Demel's classic essay "How the Chinese Became Yellow," the collection's essays examine the connections between eighteenth-century philosophy, German Orientalism, and the origins of modern race theory."--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aGerman and European studies ;$v24. 606 $aGerman literature$y18th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnlightenment$zGermany 606 $aPhilosophy, German$y18th century 606 $aOrientalism$zGermany$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aOrientalism in literature 606 $aRace in literature 606 $aChinese in literature 607 $aChina$xIn literature 608 $aLibros electronicos. 615 0$aGerman literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnlightenment 615 0$aPhilosophy, German 615 0$aOrientalism$xHistory 615 0$aOrientalism in literature. 615 0$aRace in literature. 615 0$aChinese in literature. 676 $a830.9006 702 $aBrandt$b Bettina, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt. 702 $aPurdy$b Daniel , $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt. 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911009154403321 996 $aChina in the German Enlightenment$94396566 997 $aUNINA
