The Further Study of Dr. Dewey's Visit to China——With His Path as the Center

On April 30, 1919, Dr. Dewey was invited to visit and speak in China. He stayed in China for more than two years. Through his travels and speeches, he was deeply impressed by the land of China and Eastern civilization.After reviewing Dr. Dewey's researches in China, we find that the route was the defect of previous studies. On the one hand, the provinces through which Dr. Dewey traveled were not complete; on the other hand, the order of his trip was not appropriate. In order to remedy the shortcomings of previous researches, this study not only clarified the 12 provinces and Beijing visited by Dr. Dewey, but also supplemented some historical information accordingly.
