2. George Thomas Staunton, Ta Tsing Leu Lee; Being the Fundamental Laws, and a Selection from the Supplementary Statutes, of the Penal Code of China (London: Cadell and Davies, 1810), viii–ix. These accounts were not accepted uncritically, especially in continental Europe with its anti-British sentiments and rivalries. In 1799, for example, Joseph François Charpentier de Cossigny, an engineer in the French East India Company, published an account of his own visit to China that included negative remarks about George Leonard Staunton’s memoirs of the Macartney embassy: Voyage a Canton, capitale de la province de ce nom, a la Chine; par Gorée, le Cap de Bonne Espérance, et les Isles de France et de la Réunion; suivi d’observations sur le voyage à la Chine, de Lord Macartney et du Citoyen Van-Braam, et d’une esquisse de arts des Indiens et des Chinois [Voyage to Canton, Capital of the Province of That Name, in China, via Gorée, the Cape of Good Hope, and the Isles of French and Reunion; Followed by Observations on the Voyages to China of Lord Macartney and Van Braam, and a Sketch of Indian and Chinese Arts] (Paris: André, 1799).
