Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ This is a literal translation; sometimes "comprehensive" (大) is not rendered as part of the English title, or it is translated even more literally as "big".
  2. ^ The first edition of volume one (上卷) was released in 1931, but volume two (下卷) was not released until 1932.
  3. ^ Later editions, after the fall of Imperial Japan, had substantial contributions by Âng Ûi-jîn.
