Sinopsis

An Epic of the East is a rare historical document written by American missionary Sarah Moore Sites in the late nineteenth century, recording the earliest footprints of Western missionaries in Fujian, China.Through vivid daily observations and delicate spiritual reflections, she preserves a first-hand account of the people, customs, landscapes, schools, churches, river routes, and social conditions of Fujian in the mid-to-late Qing dynasty.This translation restores the original tone of the 1902 edition while providing clear, elegant contemporary English/Chinese readability. As both translator and editor, Dejuan Fang adds careful footnotes, cultural clarifications, and historical supplements, enabling modern readers to understand the worldview of a woman who wrote across cultures more than 120 years ago.This book is not merely a missionary memoir-it is a cultural document, a cross-civilization encounter, and a rare feminine perspective on early Sino-Western contact.It is history, literature, faith narrative, and personal witnessing woven into one.
