Paul Georg Von Möllendorff epub The Family Law of the Chinese (Classic Reprint)

Family Law of the Chinese before theN orth-C hina Branch of theB oyal Asiatic Society atS hanghai, which appeared in theS ociety sJ ournal [N.S. vol. XIII (1879) p. 99-121]. I had been largely indebted toM r. E. H. Parker, H.B.M. sC onsul, for valuable notes relating to my subject, and in a lengthy review of my essay in the China Review [vol. VIII (1879) p. 67-107] that gentleman again added a number of suggestions and observations. These together with new investigations of my own have made it desirable to republish thei old essay, with the necessary alterations and additions. Of the legal literature of C!hina I have principally consulted theS tatute Law and theO rdinances of the present dynasty ;jj| BQ (T a-kH nff-lU-lt) of which the laws relating to the present subject have been translated by Mr. G. Jamibson in the China Review [vol. X(1881) p. 77-99].(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
