Abstract
This paper uses Oliver Goldsmith's The Citizen of the Worldand W. Somerset Maugham's On a Chinese Screenas two examples to illustrate how and why different notions of China have been appropriated. The discussion builds upon and seeks to expand a long tradition of Chinese interest in their presentations in Western literature by linking the two texts to their respective epochal ethos.
