From the vocabulary of western medicine, it is not difficult to find that "Mongolia" refers to the eastern nationalities. We are familiar with "Mongolian disease", a congenital genetic disease with the characteristics of oriental double eyelids but mostly stupid, and the "Mongolia" in the birthmark "Mongolian spot" unique to oriental babies all means this. The former has been changed to "Down syndrome" because it has seriously violated the dignity of the oriental nation. However, in the description of Down syndrome, such as Harrison 15 textbook, the word "Mongolian face" still appears.
Confusing China, Eastern countries and Mongolia is definitely influenced by The Travels of Marco Polo on the one hand, and the terrorist influence of Genghis Khan's Western Expedition on the other. Columbus not only imagined that China was ruled by Mongolian Khan when he went to the West, but also thought of the oldest terrorist organization-"Yellow Disaster" every time the rights and interests of western countries were occupied by China in modern times. Since the second half of the19th century, a large number of China laborers who entered the United States due to the gold rush and railway construction have been rejected by the American government and people. In order to emphasize the cold image of China people, Americans often use "Mongolians" instead of "China people" in political speeches or legal cases. The summary of the judgment reads: "We readily acknowledge the fact that China people are Mongolians." . Westerners' lack of understanding of the eastern world also makes them regard the Khitans, Mongols, China people and orientals as the same nation. /kloc-British Shakespeare in the 0/7th century mentioned "the Khitans" twice in his works, and his attitude was very contemptuous.
William of Rubruk, born early in Bikel Polo, was the first person to describe the "Mongolian doctor" in The Mongols. William, a Franciscan monk, was sent to the East by King Louis IX of France on 1253 in an attempt to form an alliance with Mongolian Khan against Arab Muslims (another terrorist organization), but was given the opportunity to observe the characteristics of the Orientals and returned it to King Louis of France. Westerners' first description of the Oriental doctor is: "Qidan has a small population and breathes heavily when speaking. As we all know, the eyes of orientals are very small. No matter what they do, their hands are skillful, and their doctors make good use of herbs and can accurately diagnose according to their pulse. But they don't take urine samples and know nothing about urine. " . William may not have any prejudice against the pulse of "Mongolian medicine", but in William's mind, the medical skill of "Mongolian medicine" is at best a secret recipe of rivers and lakes, because doctors in the East do not have a "scientific" urine test. Next, Kyle Poirot, who came to China, claimed in his travel notes that he had been to China between 127 1 to 1295. There are several references to doctors in China in the book, but there is no in-depth description. Usually, they are just dotted with doctors in many industries that appear on the stage. Perhaps because Kyle Polo was in adolescence and youth in China, he didn't need the care of these "Mongolian doctors" in health, just like tea, China's calligraphy, and women who bound feet didn't interest Kyle Polo, and he didn't describe it in detail in his travel notes. In the future, the communication between the East and the West mainly depended on missionaries, just as they respected Confucius and worshipped their ancestors in China. They didn't violate the "Mongolian medicine", but their tribute to Emperor China was like quinine's western medicine. 19 10 After the Boxer Rebellion, Westerners once again had a horrible impression of "evil China people". British writers Shaq and sax rohmer borrowed the Manchu emperor Fu Yi to create the role of Doctor Fu. The eyes of this new generation of "Mongolian doctors" are not just the small eyes of the orientals referred to by William. In Shaq's book, Dr. Fu Manchu is described as the most disgusting face I have ever seen through British doctor Billy. And that green eye, green as a cat's eye in the dark night, sometimes beating like a jack-o 'lantern, sometimes covered with a horrible film, is less like a human eye, less like a soul, more like a monster that slipped out of hell, and now temporarily lives in this bony shoulder body. "Westerners never look back on the causes of the Opium War and the Boxer Rebellion, but they all created a more evil' Mongolian medicine'-a wizard from hell. During the Great Depression in the United States 1935, orientals were once again regarded as "public enemies" who robbed westerners of their jobs, and the poor "Mongolian doctor" was put on another reactionary role. In his novel "The Circus of Dr. Lao", Charles Finney appeared on the stage and sang cadently: the person who caught wild animals for this performance-from the windy mountain to the sweet island-was a "short, sallow and wrinkled man".
