Cathryn H. Clayton is Assistant Professor of Asian Studies at the University of Hawaii.
Anthropologist Clayton examines how identity manifested itself in

the Portuguese administration attempted to foster a unique
Sino-Western character...Clayton's account is highly anecdotal and
personal--the first-person pronoun is used liberally--as well as
thoughtful and nuanced.
