Transitions to Modernity in Taiwan ─ The Spirit of 1895 and the Cession of Formosa to Japan
商品資訊
商品簡介
On 19 April, 1895, British Consul Lionel Charles Hopkins, at the northern port of Tamsui, was summoned by Tang Jingsong, the governor of Taiwan, to his yamen in the western district of the walled city of Taipei. Shortly after his arrival Hopkins was handed a petition. Signed by a number of Taiwanese ‘notables’, the document appealed to the British government to incorporate the island into a protectorate in the wake of an impending Japanese invasion. The British declined.
This book addresses the interconnectivity of these two communities and, through an investigation of both at a pivotal moment in Taiwan’s history, it is possible to understand local social history in a transnational and regional context. It is in the writing of this kind of local history that the micro-historical contexts of northern Taiwan uncover social, political, and economic forces that, in the nineteenth century, were both vibrant and cosmopolitan.
