CHAPTER XX Notes

105 This book dates from about the eleventh century A.D. It has been translated into English by James Legge (_Sacred Books of the East_, 1891) and by T. Susuki and P. Carus (Chicago, 1906); into French by M. A. Rémusat (_Le livre des récompenses et des peines_, 1816), and by Stanislas Julien (1835); into German by W. Schüler (_Zeitschrift für Missionskunde_, 1909).

“Be human with animals, and do no harm to insects, plants, and trees,” is the command of one saying in this book. The following acts are condemned: “Hunting men or animals to death; shooting with bow and arrow at birds; hunting quadrupeds; driving insects out of their holes; frightening birds which are asleep in the trees; blocking up the holes of insects, and destroying birds-nests.” To delight in hunting is described as a serious moral perversion.

TRANSCRIBER’S NOTES

The formatting of both the .htm and .txt files followed that of three similar books, The Quest of the Historical Jesus, The Mystery of the Kingdom of God and The Decay and Restoration of Civilization already in Project Gutenberg. I have included page numbers in the format [pg xxx] for both .htm and .txt.

I made several hyphenation choices, forced by de-hyphenation at the ends of lines:

1. Will-lessness p. 194. 2. birds-nests note 105 p. 234.

Cases of inconsistent use (both hyphenated and unhyphenated are present) were left as they are: two-fold, non-sensible, Kung-tse, un-civilization, pre-conceptions, pre-suppositions, thorough-going, re-fashion, present-day, world-view, driving-force, sum-total, will-to-power, belief-in-progress, nature-philosophy, rationally-pleasurable, ever-new, general-notion, world-and-life affirmation, matter-of-fact, wage-system, fellow-men, bass-note, world-religions, so-called, will-to-action, ready-made, all-round, optimistic-ethical.

I left the misspelled word “postumous” in footnote 22 from p. 86, the misspelled word “alway” from p. 262 but I corrected the birth date for Henri Bergson from 1560 to 1860 on p. 198, I corrected the spelling of the translator of Mill in the Index to “Gomperz”, the spelling of the German philosopher “Leibniz” on p. 93 and the Index and the spelling of the German philosopher “Nietzsche” on p. 175 and 176. I eliminated the small caps used for the first name of each starting letter in the Index.

In the .txt version I have used utf8 encoding and the following markers:

1. italic text surrounded by _ 2. footnote references in the form _(_number_)_
