「 Western Study of the History of Chinese Medicine in the Nineteenth Century 」

The process in which Occidental doctors propagated modern European medical knowledge in China impacted the understanding and perception of Chinese medicine. This presentation focuses on Western doctors’ concise account of Chinese medicine and relevant history, aiming to probe into how these aspects influenced Chinese historians and Chinese doctor’s view points with regard to traditional Chinese medicine, along with the mode of writing of history of Chinese medicine, under the context of “otherness” and scientific narrative.
