In the Enlightenment turn to China for moral authority, European thinkers praise the superior wisdom of Confucius on the one hand, and condemn China's idolatry, despotism, and depraved tastes, on the other. This dissertation studies the influence of Asia, and China in particular, on conceptualizations of virtue in English literature and culture in the late seventeenth to mid-eighteenth centuries.
