Description
Annals And Memoirs Of The Court Of Peking: From The Sixteenth To The Twentieth Century is a historical book written by Edmund Backhouse and published in 1914. The book provides a detailed account of the Chinese imperial court in Peking from the 16th to the 20th century. The author, who was a British diplomat and sinologist, draws from his extensive knowledge of Chinese culture and history to provide a comprehensive and engaging narrative of the court's political intrigues, social customs, and cultural practices.Backhouse's book is divided into two parts: the Annals and the Memoirs. The Annals cover the period from the 16th to the 19th century and provide a chronological account of the major events and personalities of the imperial court. The Memoirs, on the other hand, focus on the author's personal experiences and interactions with the court during the early 20th century.Throughout the book, Backhouse provides insights into the court's political and social structures, as well as its interactions with foreign powers. He also delves into the court's cultural practices, including its art, literature, and religious beliefs. The book is richly illustrated with photographs, maps, and drawings, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in Chinese history and culture.Overall, Annals And Memoirs Of The Court Of Peking: From The Sixteenth To The Twentieth Century is a fascinating and informative account of one of the most important and influential courts in Chinese history. Backhouse's writing is engaging and accessible, making it a must-read for anyone interested in the history of China or the imperial court.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
