Following the Opium War, missionaries were granted access to China and established residence there. Motivated by clinical necessities and the inquisitiveness of the Western scientific community, these missionaries meticulously documented the medicinal resources available in China, endeavoring to incorporate this knowledge into Western pharmacology. Among the various reports produced in multiple languages, the contributions in English have emerged as particularly influential. This article seeks to analyze the information\u2010gathering processes within the missionary network and among other naturalists, commencing with Robert Morrison, the inaugural compiler of the English\u2010Chinese dictionary, and extending to Stephen A. Hunter, who collaborated with Chinese officials to develop a complete translation for pharmaceutical nomenclature.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/bewi.202400007","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,21]],"date-time":"2024-11-21T14:14:56Z","timestamp":1732198496000},"page":"306-329","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["The British Missionaries\u2019 Attempts to Identify Chinese Medicine**"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"47","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4393-7568","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Che\u2010chia","family":"Chang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Modern History Academia Sinica"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,21]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_10_1_1","first-page":"34","article-title":"\u201cBringing Order from the Chaos of Names, Texts and Nature: Collection of Chinese Materia Medica in Nineteenth-Century Britain,\u201d","volume":"15","author":"An Sooyoung","year":"2020","journal-title":"Frontiers of History in China"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","unstructured":"An Sooyoung \u201cDaniel Hanbury's Study of ChineseMateria Medica: A British Network of Letters and Specimens during the Nineteenth Century \u201dNotes and Records(2021) online: https:\/\/royalsocietypublishing.org\/doi\/10.1098\/rsnr.2019.0039 (accessed 20 October 2024)."},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Bretschneider Emil On the Study and Value of Chinese Botanical Works with Notes on the History of Plants and Geographical Botany from Chinese Sources(Foochow: Rozario 1871 [1870]).","DOI":"10.5962\/bhl.title.137100"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","unstructured":"Bretschneider Emil Zhongguo zhiwuxue wenxian pinglun[On the Study and Values of the Chinese Botanical Works with Notes on the History of Plants and Geographical Botany in Chinese Sources] trans.
