520|  |▼a"Emphasizing the medium\'s re-
   |  |ception among several Chinese -
   |  |constituencies, this book expl-
   |  |ores photography\'s impact with-
   |  |in new discourses on science, -
   |  |as well its effects in social -
   |  |life, visual modernity and the-
   |  | media during China\'s transiti-
   |  |on from imperial to republican-
   |  | government. General knowledge-
   |  | and academic teaching of earl-
   |  |y modern Chinese visual cultur-
   |  |e stops short of fitting photo-
   |  |graphy into the larger context-
   |  | of visual practices and theor-
   |  |ies. This study redraws the bo-
   |  |undaries by making photography-
   |  | the central concern within ch-
   |  |anging priorities of visual re-
   |  |presentation and its functions-
   |  | during a period of major cult-
   |  |ural and political change. No -
   |  |other study draws on such inti-
   |  |mate familiarity with the earl-
   |  |y glamour of photography as sc-
   |  |ience, commerce and communicat-
   |  |ion in the various local condi-
   |  |tions of China\'s cities and to-
   |  |wns. Joining a body of critica-
   |  |l writing that examines photog-
   |  |raphy\'s histories outside the -
   |  |familiar confines of the West,-
   |  | this book looks beyond the to-
   |  |urist and imperialist gazes of-
   |  | photographer-adventurers from-
   |  | the Western powers and Japan.-
   |  | It defines instead the Chines-
   |  |e priorities of photographic v-
   |  |ision that are abundantly evid-
   |  |ent in surviving photographs a-
   |  |s well as in records as variou-
   |  |s as technical manuals and per-
   |  |sonal inscriptions. Understand-
   |  |ing local practices and local -
   |  |knowledge are the keys to expl-
   |  |ain the highly successful indi-
   |  |genization of a medium as glob-
   |  |alizing as photography with re-
   |  |ference to Chinese society\'s o-
   |  |wn terms and practices. This b-
   |  |ook will be of particular inte-
   |  |rest to scholars in art and vi-
   |  |sual culture, the history of p-
   |  |hotography and Asian art"－－▼cP-
