説明

Zi Zheng Xin Pian 『資政新篇』 was written by Hong Ren-gan 洪仁坏 after he was appointed King-Kan 干王 in 1859. In this book he introduced and suggested a lot of political, economic and social policies according to his experiences in Hong Kong and Shanghai during the early 1850’s. Though this book has been as a general plan for modernization during the latter part of the Tai-ping 太平 movement, there has been few bibliographical studies of it. In this article, the author clarifies its publication process and what the purpose of the book was, using mainly some related reports written by missionaries of the London Missionary Society for The North China Herald.These reports stated that there was a handwritten version of Zi Zheng Xin Ping, but its content was much different from the extant published version and included a lot of articles concerning Christian doctrine. This fact shows us how Hong Ren-gan tried to bring “orthodox” Christianity into the Tai-ping kingdom. On this point, having had once worked as a missionary assistant and had been greatly appreciated by them, Hong tried to meet their expectations even after his arriving in Nanjing. However, after looking over this handwritten version of Zi Zheng Xing Ping, Hong Xiu-quan 洪秀全 ordered the revision of some parts of articles referring to Christian doctrines that were opposed to the Tai-ping religion: for example the part of explanation of the Holy Trinity. Furthermore, when it was about to be published as a Tai-ping’s official publication, all of the articles interpreting Christian doctrine were removed, leaving only the introductions and policy suggestions. However, some of the removed articles were published later as Hong Ren-gan’s personal publication, 『開朝精忠軍師干王洪宝製』. His original purpose for writing Zi Zheng Xing Ping, to bring Christian doctrine into Tai-ping, therefore regressed in the process of its publication.
