It is a global history exploring the exchange of silver for goods in Canton. It is also a European history studying the wholesale market for Asian goods in Gothenburg and Copenhagen, the formation of taste and the impact of fashion in the blending of tea and the assortments of colours on wrought silk destined for markets across Europe. Linking material history to political economy and the histories of science, this book ends on the threshold of the nineteenth century, the rise of the second British Empire in Asia, and the creation of synthetic dyes in Europe. 000762940 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed June 6, 2016). 000762940 61020 $$aEast India Company$$xHistory$$y18th century. 000762940 650_0 $$aTea$$zEurope$$xHistory$$y18th century. 000762940 650_0 $$aSilk$$zEurope$$xHistory$$y18th century. 000762940 651_0 $$aEurope$$xCommerce$$zAsia$$xHistory$$y18th century. 000762940 651_0 $$aAsia$$xCommerce$$zEurope$$xHistory$$y18th century. 000762940 830_0 $$aEurope's Asian centuries. 000762940 852__ $$bebk 000762940 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-1-137-45544-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000762940 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:762940$$pGLOBAL_SET 000762940 980__ $$aEBOOK 000762940 980__ $$aBIB 000762940 982__ $$aEbook 000762940 983__ $$aOnline 000762940 994__ $$a92$$bISE
