The studies are mainly relied on the written sources from the Mediterranean world about the Far East and those sources from China about the Far West. Following this tradition, the book will focus on the image of the Roman Empire, mainly the eastern part known to Chinese as Da-qin including the regions of Syria, Palestine, and Egypt, which was conceived by Chinese from the first century to the sixth century CE. Based on previous researchers and the ancient Chinese literature, this book will deal with the relations between the Roman empire and ancient China, with a focus on the study of the image of the Roman empire in ancient Chinese literature. Compared with Western sources, with the help of Chinese sources, the study will attempt to reconstruct the image, analyze the influential factors of the image's construction, and examine its significance for the improvement of contemporary European- Chinese relations. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Electronic books. 651 0 China|xLiteratures|xHistory and criticism. 651 0 Rome|xLiteratures|xHistory and criticism. 651 0 Rome|xRelations|zChina. 651 0 China|xRelations|zRome. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 13918267?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ ebp_9781839781643_180.jpeg
