22077301Canton 1837-39 Mission Press. New green cloth over boards very good with issues numbers 5 8 9 the complete article extracted from the Chinese Repository 1837-38 66 pages a most bright and clean copy nicely rebound. R A R E This is a most fascinating primary resource. Obscure & rare! The narrative begins: "The object of this voyage was to carry back to their country seven shipwrecked Japanese who had been residing at Macao for several months and whose return it was reasonably supposed would form a good excuse for appearing in the harbors of that empire." With this mis- sion in mind the story unfolds. This is an exceptionally obscure and rare copy of the journal kept by S.W. Williams a celebrated American sinologist and missionary who came to Canton to run the Mission Press. During his twenty-three sojourn in China as a missionary he supervised the publica- tions from the Mission Press as well as the monthly period- ical the "Chinese Repository" and worked on a dictionary of grammar of the Cantonese dialect. He was also the celebr- ated author of the classic on China: MIDDLE KINGDOM. So the story continues. It was in the summer of 1837 that Williams received an invitation to join in the attempt to organize the return of some seven shipwrecked Japanese sailors from Macao to the Bay of Edo in the ship "Morrison." The mission failed because the Japanese refused to allow the return to Japan of any of its citizens who were lost at sea or who il- legally went abroad during the period of Sakoku or "Closed Country." This experience in Japan stimulated Williams to study the Japanese language and people with the assistance of two of the shipwrecked Japanese sailors whom he employ- ed at his press. Against this backdrop & experience in 1853 he received a request from Commodore Perry to accompany the expedition to open Japan as the official interpreter. Will- iams was was picked up by Perry in Canton and he joined the celebrated expedition to open Japan in 1853-1854. Published serially in three issues of the journal 1837-1838 the comp- lete essay.

1819130544London: printed for Baldwin Cradock and Joy 1819. The celebrated bluestocking's evaluation of the Bourbon Restoration in the original boards First edition of the celebrated bluestocking's evaluation of the Bourbon Restoration her last completed book on current French conditions. Williams 1759-1827 was both much admired and much maligned by her contemporaries: her works were favoured by Wordsworth and her literary salon in Paris was attended by the likes of Thomas Paine Mary Wollstonecraft and Francisco de Miranda yet she was branded by Edmund Burke alongside Wollstonecraft as one of the "clan of desperate wicked and mischievously ingenious women" who were publishing radicalising pro-revolutionary works at the turn of the century letter to Mrs Crewe 1795 quoted in Craciun & Lokke p. 326. The present work "though it may not have been a best-seller. was important enough to warrant translation into French" Kennedy p. 195 after Henry Crabb Robinson had helped its author to find a British publisher. Its publication "when she was nearly 60 years old indicates Williams's commitment to making what contribution she could to the support of social and political change. Perhaps in 1790 she may have envisioned herself enjoying her old age in leisure rather than continuing to fight for the liberty the French Revolution had promised. But 1819 was a period still 'crowded with events' that required her vigilant observation Restoration 3. It was not to be expected that a woman so involved with the politics of the Revolution would retire from the public scene when political matters were once again the main topic of conversation" p. 196.

The recipients were Charles and Dulcie Hope Danby 1879-1958; 1889-1981. Hope Danby was a prolific writer on Chinese history and archaeology. She was a friend of the controversial scholar-collector Edmund Backhouse and wrote his entry for the Dictionary of National Biography. Her husband worked as an insurance agent. Based like the Danbys in Beijing the author 1884-1972 was the city's most senior customs service official. He entered the service in 1903 at the junior level of Fourth Assistant.

In 1969 he published his autobiographical Chinese Tribute which recounts his colourful experiences of working for the service. Alongside his professional work Williams had a scholarly interest in Chinese history and culture. He is most well-known for Outlines of Chinese Symbolism and Art Motives: An Alphabetical Compendium of Antique Legends and Beliefs as Reflected in the Manners and Customs of the Chinese 1931.
