Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The course looks at the contacts between Europe and Imperial China (including the broader East Asian and Inner Asian macro-regions) roughly between the 13th and 19th centuries.
Each week we will read and analyse a primary source (e.g. official historiography, travelogues, diaries, letters) compiled by various actors (merchants, priests, diplomats, soldiers) who played a role in shaping the reciprocal image and cultural understanding of the Chinese and European worlds.

After attending the course, the students will:
- have a knowledge of the main chronology, the geography, main events and fundamental concepts to understand East Asian history
- be able to contextualize and work critically with primary sources
- be able to write academically and express critically their thoughts on the readings
