A Dissertation On The Theology Of The Chinese: With A View To The Elucidation Of The Most Appropriate Term For Expressing The Deity is a book written by Walter Henry Medhurst in 1847. The book is a detailed analysis of the Chinese theology and religion, with a focus on the most appropriate term for expressing the deity. Medhurst examines the Chinese language and culture to understand the concept of the divine in Chinese religion. He explores the different terms used to describe the deity in Chinese, such as Shangdi, Tian, and Shen, and their meanings. The book also discusses the history of Chinese religion and its influence on Chinese culture. Medhurst’s work is considered an important contribution to the study of Chinese religion and language, and it provides valuable insights into the Chinese worldview and philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
