Excerpt from The Three Religions of China: Lectures Delivered at Oxford
These Lectures were delivered during the Long Vacation of 1912, in Queen's College, Oxford, under the auspices of the Board for the Training of Mission aries, a Board established by the Continuation Committee of the Edinburgh Missionary Conference held in 1910. The Lectures were prepared for students designated for work in China, and are, therefore, meant as an introduction to the three recognised religions of that country. While an endeavour has been made to give a reasonably full and accurate description, neither the time allotted nor the pre requisite knowledge of the subject on the part of most of the students justified an exhaustive treatment.
Nevertheless, a certain amount of original research has been necessary. Our gradually increasing store of knowledge has been tapped, modern views and criticism considered, and a new method of presenta tion adopted. The Lectures are, therefore, published in the hope that they may be of value, not only as an introduction for beginners, but as a guide to those further advanced, and especially as an incentive to a fuller inquiry than has hitherto been possible.
