About This Novel

"The Chinese and the Japanese in the Eyes of Americans" is what the famous American philosopher John Dewey saw and heard when he traveled to Japan and China. It records China and Japan in 1919 and can be called a witness to the times a hundred years ago. John Dewey recorded the folk customs of China and Japan in detail in the last century, including some interesting historical details, such as the sense of responsibility of Chinese students to "take the world as their own responsibility", prosperous Shanghai, prosperous Hangzhou, Japanese bowing, prices and food, the people's awe of the emperor when the emperor traveled, Uji's tea, etc. These records are considered valuable first-hand historical materials today. In "The Chinese and the Japanese in American Eyes", John Dewey believed that Japan's background is still ancient, but new buds have grown inside, like trees in spring, trying to exude a breath of new life. Dewey was deeply shocked by the endless power and strong sense of responsibility of Chinese people, the climate and landscape that were completely different from New York, and the unparalleled philosophy of life.
