上个世纪初,日本人编撰了一套中国的地方志,名为《支那省别全志》,是在特殊历史时期下编撰的中国志书。当时日本的一些年轻学者们以大旅行的方式踏察调查著述,材料真实可靠,方法科学先进,是近代中国史研究的宝贵资料。其中的江西卷对研究近代中国中部社会经济有着重要的价值。 At the beginning of the last century, the Japanese compiled a set of Chinese local history books called “Chronicles of Different Provinces in the Province of Chona”, a Chinese chronicle compiled under a special historical period. At that time, some young scholars in Japan inspected investigative writings in a big way of traveling. The material is reliable and the method is advanced in science. It is an invaluable source for the study of modern Chinese history. The volume of Jiangxi is of great value to the study of social economy in modern central China.
