 To turn to a very different context, that of China, Darwin’s works entered Chinese discussions by a curious route. The initial discussions of Darwinian theory were generated by the translation of Thomas Henry Huxley’s 1893 Romanes Lecture “Evolution and Ethics” by the naval science scholar Yan Fu (1854–1921) who had encountered Darwinism while  being educated at the Royal Naval College in Greenwich from 1877 to 1899.  This translation was  accompanied by Huxley’s “Prolegomena”, and was accompanied  with an extensive commentary by Yan Fu drawing heavily upon the writings of Herbert Spencer. This translation, published under the name of Tianyan Lun in 1898, has been shown to have been the main vehicle by which the Chinese learned of Darwin’s work (Jin 2019a,b; Yang 2013; Pusey 1983). Beginning in 1902 with a partial translation by Ma Junwu (1881–1940), a Chinese scientist, trained in chemistry and metallurgy in Japan and Germany, the early chapters of the Origin itself were made available to a Chinese audience. This initial translation of the first five chapters between 1902 and 1906  by Ma Junwu modified the text to agree with the progressive evolutionism of Spencer and with Yan Fu’s popular Tianyan Lun. Only in September of 1920 did the Chinese have Ma Junwu’s full translation of Darwin’s sixth edition. This gave a more faithful rendering of Darwin’s text, including an accurate translation of Darwin’s final views on natural selection (Jin 2019a,b). As a political reformer and close associate of democratic reformer Sun Yat-Sen (1866–1925), Junwu’s concern with Darwin also was involved in revolutionary Chinese politics (Jin 2019a).
