The Political Doctrines of Sun Yat-sen: An Exposition of the San Min Chu I
Linebarger, Paul Myron Anthony
Sun, Yat-sen, 1866-1925. San min zhu yi
The second half of the bibliography lists further works which have been
referred to or cited. The first group of these consists of a small
collection of some of the more important Chinese editions of, and Chinese
and Japanese treatises upon, Sun Yat-sen’s writings. The second group
represents various Western works on China or on political science which
have been of assistance to the author in this study.
Chinese names have been left in their natural order, with the patronymic
first. Where Chinese names have been Westernized and inverted, they have
been returned to their original Chinese order, but with a comma inserted
to indicate the change.
A. Major Sources on Sun Yat-sen Which are Available in Western Languages.
I. Biographies of Sun Yat-sen.

A popular biography. Valuable for the period just before 1912.
Cantlie, James and Sheridan-Jones, C., _Sun Yat-sen and the

Also a popular work. Valuable for the description of Sun Yat-sen’s
education.
Linebarger, Paul (and Sun Yat-sen), _Sun Yat-sen and The Chinese
Republic_, New York, 1925.
The only biography authorized by Sun Yat-sen, who wrote parts of it
himself. A propaganda work, it presents the most complete record of Sun’s
early life. Does not go beyond 1922.
Vilenskii (Sibiriakov), V., _Sun’ Iat-Sen—otets kitaiskoe
revoliutsii_, Moscow, 1925. The same, Moscow, 1926.
Not available.

Achievements_ (English and French), Nanking, n. d.

Sharman, (Mrs.) Lyon, _Sun Yat-sen, His Life and Its Meaning, A
Criticall Biography_, New York, 1934.
The most complete biography of Sun Yat-sen. Well documented and prepared.
Mrs. Sharman’s work will remain authoritative for many years to come. Its
main fault is its somewhat hyper-sensitive criticism of Sun Yat-sen’s
personality, with which the author never comes in contact.
Linebarger, Paul, _The Life of Sun Chung-san_, Shanghai, 1932.
Fragmentary proofsheets. See note in Preface.
Reissig, Paul, _Sun Yat Sen und die Kuomintang_, Berlin, n. d. A
