Book Details
Edition Notes
Based on the Chinese tragedy in Du Halde's Description géographique, historique ... de l'empire de la Chine (cf. the English translation, v. 3: Tchao chi con ell; or, The little orphan of the family of Tchao) Differs much from Voltaire's L'orphelin de la Chine, from the same source. Cf. Murphy's letter to Voltaire (p. [89]-96) and Voltaire's dedication to his play.
