In 1739 China's emperor authorized the publication of a medical text that included images of children with smallpox to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of the disease. Those images made their way to Europe, where they were interpreted as indicative of the ill health and medical backwardness of the Chinese. In the mid-nineteenth century, the celebrated Cantonese painter Lam Qua collaborated with the American medical missionary Peter Parker in the creation of portraits of Chinese patients with disfiguring pathologies, rendered both before and after surgery. Europeans saw those portraits as evidence of Western medical prowess. Within China, the visual idiom that the paintings established influenced the development of medical photography. In The Afterlife of Images, Larissa N. Heinrich investigates the creation and circulation of Western medical discourses that linked ideas about disease to Chinese identity beginning in the eighteenth century.
Combining literary studies, the history of science, and visual culture studies, Heinrich analyzes the rhetoric and iconography through which medical missionaries transmitted to the West an image of China as "sick" or "diseased." She also examines the absorption of that image back into China through missionary activity, through the earliest translations of Western medical texts into Chinese, and even through the literature of Chinese nationalism. Heinrich argues that over time "scientific" Western representations of the Chinese body and culture accumulated a host of secondary meanings, taking on an afterlife with lasting consequences for conceptions of Chinese identity in China and beyond its borders.

details win, the main idea is from Lydia Liu and Foucault with little reference
评分visual的方法其實沒多少，但選材和討論都還算有意思，再加上堪比變態學教授的插圖……但是，作為喻體的疾病，在“東亞病夫”形象的建構中到底起瞭多重要的作用？“東亞病夫”是怎樣和衛生的現代性博弈消長的？參楊瑞鬆「想像民族恥辱─近代中國思想文化史上的『東亞病夫』」
评分優秀的學術研究範本：從近年大熱的醫療史和圖象研究的交叉點切入，視角獨特；所選材料既有相對冷僻的史料（天花的概念在17、18世紀歐洲和中國的傳播史），也有經典的文學文本（魯迅）。不僅關注文本/圖象本身，還紮實地考察瞭文本/圖象的生産、傳播過程以及背後的意識形態和資本運作
评分!
