List of the Principal Buddhist works from the Pali in Chinese character

'List of the Principal Budhistical works from the Pali in Chinese character by Mt Gutzlaff' - a list of works with titles in both Chinese and English, and with some description of the manuscripts, compiled by Karl Friedrich August Gützlaff in 1845. The manuscript bears a note: "this has been copied by a native of Japan is incorrect in orthography" in the same hand that has added annotations and title to the manuscript.

Karl Friedrich August Gützlaff (Charles Gutzlaff), was a German Lutheran missionary to the Far East, one of the first Protestant missionaries in Bangkok, Thailand (1828) and Korea (1832). He was also the first Lutheran missionary to China. He was a magistrate in Ningpo and Chusan and the second Chinese Secretary of the British administration in Hong Kong.

The list was received from Gutzlaff for the use of William Henry Sykes.
