Excerpt from A Catalogue of the Chinese Translation of the Buddhist Tripitaka: The Sacred Canon of the Buddhists in China and Japan This is a complete Catalogue of the Chinese Translation of the Buddhist Tripitaka, the Sacred Canon of the Buddhists in China and Japan. It contains not only the titles of 1662 different works (of which 342, however, are miscellaneous works), but also the names of the authors and translators, together with their dates. The arrangement and classification of these works are the same as in the original Chinese Catalogue, i. E. N o. 1662. Notes taken from various sources are added under each title with their full references. A list of the principal authorities consulted by me will be found on p. Xxxii. Though I gladly and gratefully acknowledge the assistance received from my predecessors, there still remain such difficulties as were pointed out by the Rev. J. Summers in his Descriptive Catalogue of the Chinese, Japanese, and Manchu books in the Library of the India Office, 1872 (p. Iv), when he says 'the title of a [chinese] hook is often untranslatable; the author's name is frequently out of sight, and has to be sought for in some obscure corner or work; the date of the publication is alike often doubtful, and in the case of Buddhist Literature the identification of the Chinese title with the Sanskrit original is sufficiently troublesom This quotation will to a certain extent explain the imperfection of my own work, for which I have to crave the indulgence of those who may use it. My principal object in making this compilation has been to show the original, though it may be not quite scientific, arrangement Of this great Collection of our Sacred Canon, made in China under the Min dynasty, A. D. 1368 - 1644. A copy of the Japanese edition of this Chinese Collection, published in Japan in A. D. 1678 - 1681, is now in the Library of the India Office in London. 'it is this copy of the Sacred Books, ' says the Rev. S. Beal, that (in 1874) I requested His Excellency Iwakura Tomomi to procure for the India Ofiice Library. In 1875 the entire Tripitaka was received at the India Office, in fulfilment of the promise made by the Japanese Immediately after this, Mr. Beal prepared a Catalogue of the books for practical purposes which was completed in June 1876, within the time of six months 3.

Excerpt from Descriptive and Historical Catalogue of a Collection of Japanese and Chinese Paintings in the British Museum Tm: paintings and drawings described in the following pages were brought together in the course of a residence of over six years in Japan, for the purpose of illustrating an ancient and remarkable phase of art in its historical, intellectual, and technical develop ments, and the principal motives by which it has been inspired. The great majority of the works are Japanese, but a number of ancient and modern Chinese pictures have been added to demon strate the relationship between the arts of the sister empires. In the construction of the catalogue it has been judged advisable, in view of the novelty of the subject to Western readers, to give a larger amount of general explanation than would be necessary in a similar work on European art: the pictures have been classified according to schools, and to each group is prefixed an account of the main facts in the history of the school, with a list of the principal artists whose names have found a place in native biographical records; and, lastly, the legendary and other motives have been dealt with more or less in detail. It was originally pro posed to introduce a preliminary sketch of the. History, technique, forms, and characteristics of sinico-japanese painting, together with a review of the various applications of pictorial design; but as such an essay would have led to an inconvenient increase in the bulk and expense of the volume, and was judged to be more suitable to a private undertaking, I have therefore made it a separate work, incorporating with it such extracts from the catalogue as might be necessary to give completeness to the historical section, and illustrating it with reproductions of the more typical examples of the art. It is now in course of publication by Messrs. Sampson Low 6: Cc., under the title of The Pictorial Arts of J apan. The present collection, although comprising representative speci mens of all the various schools, must be regarded only as a nucleus.
