Cordier, Sinica I, 50. - Möllendorff 2018. - Graesse II, 443. - Cox I, 335 (Anm.). - Griep/Luber 367 (Anm.). - De Backer/S. IV, 35. - Vgl. Dinse S. 487f (dt. Ausg.). - Erste Ausgabe. - "The whole is, for the most part, a collection of pieces on several subjects, transmitted by the Jesuits residing in China to those of their order at home in France, and is reduced into one body by Du Halde, who added what he saw fit from other Relations and printed works. Lowndes asserts that Du Halde failed to exercise a sound judement and a scrupulous examination into the truth of many facts and opinions which he admitted into the work. Others have regarded it as the completest and most valuable history of the Chinese Empire which had appeared up to the time of its publication."
