Rh the author, but his views have in general commanded my approval. I thought at one time of simply translating his W’ork instead of giving all the Tso Chuen; but I considered that to do the latter would be more useful for students. Agreeing for the most part with Tso, Maou seems glad when he ﬁnds reason to differ from him; and he makes How Gan-kwoh his butt.

It contains a good demon- stration of the baselessness of the praise-and-censure theory, and is intended to vindicate Maou's own four laws of interpretation, given in the introduction to his Commentary.

Displays much research; and is particularly valuable as bringing down the identiﬁcations of the ancient places to the geographical arrangements of the country at the present day. A foreigner is apt to err, as I have sometimes done in this matter, by accepting the geographical determinations in the K‘ang-he edition of our classic, and then ﬁnding that the arrangement of departments and districts in a province has since been changed.

He published ‘ short glosses’ on several of the other classics as well as the Ch‘un Ts‘éw. I have found them useful.
