      ab: The article presents a discussion related to the British view of Chinese civilization and the emergence of class consciousness. The article seeks to explain why the British view of Chinese civilization changed from one of admiration to contempt in the last decade of eighteenth century. It shows that the British view of Asian societies articulated in the nineteenth century relied extensively on the language and epistemes of class consciousness. Significantly, the language of class, more than any other factor, sparked a reevaluation of Chinese civilization among British intellectuals.
