Donkey Hide Gelatin, the Black Donkey, and Animal Drugs in China
The gelatin known as ejiao has been part of the Chinese apothecary for almost 2,000 years, though historically its production was limited. It was a regional specialty from Shandong Province, whose potency was thought to depend on the use of skins from a particular breed of donkey and the water from a particular well. But in China’s recent age of prosperity, donkey hide gelatin has experienced exponential growth in demand and production, leading t…
The Many Colors of Excrement
Phlegm figures as a major cause and consequence of disease in late imperial Chinese medicine. Curiously, however, when we go back to the classics, the very notion of phlegm is entirely absent. The rise of phlegm is one of the fundamental transformations in the history of Chinese medicine.

Following traditional Chinese scholarship, it argues that the initial e…

Why Did the Kangxi Emperor Go to Wutai Shan
Why Did the Kangxi Emperor Go to Wutai Shan? Patronage, Pilgrimage, and the Place of Tibetan Buddhism at the Early Qing Court Natalie Köhle (bio) Historians studying the Qing period have traditionally argued that the completely sinicized Manchu Qing emperors had no personal commitment to Buddhism, and that their lavish patronage of Tibetan Buddhism was mere political expediency, in what was essentially an attempt to create a new stronghold of Tib…
