ABSTRACT

NOTES: CHAPTER II, pp. 26-2 7 I, 82). This work by Chen, incidentally, though appearing first in English, as a dissertation for Columbia University, has been considered enough of a primary source for its publication to be noted in a Japanese chronicle of events in Confucian history; see Imazeki Hisamaro, Sung Yuan Ming Ch'ing Ju-chia hsiieh nien-piao (Chronological tables of Sung, Yuan, Ming, and Ch'ing Confucianism) (Tokyo, 1920),217 (in Chinese).
