In the recent “Korean Journal of Medical History” ,( Vol. 25,
August 2016) published by The Korean Society for the History of Medicine, Ms. Sul
Heasim published the article, "The Perception of Ginseng in England and America,1600-1800. " Sul works at Department of History, Yensei University, Seoul, Korea.
In the article, the author discusses serious
imbalances in the research on ginseng. The author found that Ginseng was widely discussed
in England and America in the early modern period: " the discussion encompassed not
only botanical and medical interests, but also discourses on the commercial
marketability of ginseng.” (The author’s EMail: snowlove@yonsei.ac.kr)
What attracted my eyes was that the author cited Dr. Dave Wang’s
paper, “Chinese Civilization and the
United States: Tea, Ginseng, Porcelain Ware and Silk in Colonial America,
“Virginia Review of Asian Studies (2011), pp. 143-157.
This finding adds one
more country on the list of showing that Dr. Dave Wang’ s academic papers were cited by scholars
in their research.
