My research explores the multifaceted nature of British conceptions in the transformative period of 1860-1899 through a focus on five discrete key groups of British people: diplomats, artists, journalists, women and businessmen. Utilising textural analysis of three different types of sources written by these individuals, I will examine the impact of interactions between people and locations, which continue to influence contemporary British images of China and Japan. In doing so I will challenge the traditional narrative of a singular image of China and Japan driven by developments in Britain and highlight the multifaceted nature of British conceptions.

我的研究探讨了在1860年至1899年的转型期英国观念的多面性，通过关注英国人的五个离散的关键群体：外交官，艺术家，记者，妇女和商人。利用这些人所写的三种不同类型的来源的文本分析，我将研究人与地点之间的互动的影响，这继续影响当代英国的中国和日本的形象。在此过程中，我将挑战传统的叙述，即中国和日本的单一形象是由英国的发展驱动的，并强调英国观念的多面性。
