Rh ). A similar study of the Shih-t'ung by P'u Ch'i-lung 浦起龍, entitled Shih-t'ung t'ung-shih (通釋), was compiled about the same time, but appeared a little later. Huang Shu-lin left two collections of miscellaneous notes: one, entitled 硯北雜錄 Yen-pei tsa lu, was edited by in 1751 when the latter was a teacher in the Huang family; the other has the title Yen-pei ts'ung-lu (叢錄). Huang also annotated the well known work on literary criticism—the 文心雕龍 Wên-hsin tiao-lung by Liu Hsieh 劉勰 . This work, entitled Wên-hsin tiao-lung chi-chu (輯注), 10 chüan, was first printed in 1738. Later on critical notes were added by  and this edition was printed in 1833. Of the above items only the last-mentioned was copied into the Ssŭ-k'u ch'üan-shu. Huang Shu-lin's literary collection is entitled 養素堂詩文集 Yang-su t'ang shih wên-chi. Owing to the fact that his birthplace was Peking, he was sometimes referred to as Pei-p'ing hsien-shêng 北平先生.

Huang Shu-lin had two sons: Huang Têng-hsien 黃登賢, a chin-shih of 1736; and Huang Têng-ku 黃登穀 (b. 1714), a chin-shih of 1737. The elder of his two daughters married. Huang Shu-lin had three younger brothers: Huang Shu-wan 黃叔琬 (d. 1756), a chin-shih of 1709 and educational commissioner of Shansi (1714-17); Huang Shu-ch'i 黃叔琪, a chü-jên of 1705, and prefect of Ningkuo, Anhwei (1720–1732); and Huang Shu-ching 黄叔璥 , a chin-shih of 1709. Huang Shu-ching was, in 1722, sent to Taiwan (Formosa) as provincial censor to inspect the Island after the rebellion of. He remained there about a year and left the following two works on his experiences: 南征紀程 Nan-chêng chi-ch'êng, 1 chüan, a diary of his journey from Peking to Fukien; and 臺海使槎錄 T'ai-hai shih-ch'a lu, 8 chüan, a description of Taiwan. The latter is regarded by some as the best early description of the Island. Five of his works, including the two just mentioned, are given notice in the Imperial Catalogue. The T'ai-hai shih-ch'a lu was copied into the Imperial Manuscript Library.

 HUANG-t'ai-chi. See under.

 HUANG Tao-chou 黃道周, Mar. 9, 1585–1646, Apr. 20, Ming loyalist, philosopher, and landscape painter, was a native of Chang-p'u, Fukien. He came from a poor family and suffered many privations. His poverty, however, did not hinder his travelling, for as early as 1598 when he was only fourteen (sui) he went to Po-lo, Kwangtung, to study in the library of a certain Han 韓 family. He returned home two years later. In 1605 he made a second journey to Kwangtung, but returned home after a few months. In 1607 his father, Huang Chia-ch'ing 黃嘉卿, died and the family sank deeper into poverty. In order to support the household he accepted tutorship in several prominent families and at the same time continued his studies on the Book of Changes about which he later produced two works: 易象正 I-hsiang chêng, in 16 chüan, and 三易洞璣 San-i t'ung-chi, in 16 chüan. In 1612 he became a licentiate and six years later passed the examination for the chü-jên degree. Becoming a chin-shih in 1622, he was admitted to the Hanlin Academy as a bachelor. During this period he maintained an intimate friendship with and Wên Chên-mêng (see under ), and the three agreed to protest against the misgovernment of their time. Wên Chên-mêng and Chêng Man were dismissed late in 1622, but Huang remained silent, on the ground that he had just invited his mother to Peking. Soon he was made a compiler of the Hanlin Academy (1624), but asked leave to return home in 1625 in order to carry out his protest. In the following year his mother died.

After a period of mourning he proceeded in 1630 to Peking and was immediately sent to Chekiang to supervise the provincial examinations. Returning that same year to the capital, he was promoted to the post of junior secretary in the Supervisorate of Imperial Instruction. Meantime Ch'ien Lung-hsi 錢龍錫 was involved in the case of  and was sentenced to die. Huang ad- 345
