Gems Of Chinese Literature PDF Download

Excerpt from Gems of Chinese Literature The present volume is a venture in a new direc tion. English readers will search in vain for any work leading to an acquaintanceship, however slight, with the general literature of China. Dr. Legge's colossal labours have indeed placed the canonical books of Confucianism within easy reach of the curious; but the immense bulk of Chinese authorship is still virgin soil and remains to be efficiently explored.
