Note 304 — Chapter XI · CLASSICAL LITERATURE OF THE CHINESE.
Reading edition
Several translations have been made by missionaries. One by P. Gaubil was edited by De Guignes in 1770; a second by Rev. W. H. Medhurst, in 1846; but the most complete by J. Legge, D.D., in 1865, with its notes and text, has brought this Record better than ever before to the knowledge of western scholars.
