About this book
Reviews
"Cultural Mobilities Between China and Italy builds on a long history of exchanges, using the lens of mobility to explore the multiple connections that continue to link the two countries today. The result is a collection of essays which often take us to unexpected places, tracing a map made of translation, travel, commerce, migration, and an intricate, often intimate reciprocity of gaze." (Loredana Polezzi, Stony Brook University)
