...there he and his regiment changed to an armored train sent up from Shantung Province by his fellow war lord Governor Han Fu-chu of Shantung whom he appears to trust. Under Han's protection Feng lived during the summer of 1932 on Taishan, the Sacred Mountain near Confucius' birthplace in Shantung, and proceeded to return there last week "as the climate is good for my asthma." Chinese expected Feng's "asthma"-a standing joke-to last until he sees a fresh chance to rush forth on another profitable military escapade. During his previous retirement the League...
Such special social sciences are one of them much more than 100 years old, and Sociology depends upon them for many of its data. Although Confucius, Plato, Aristotle, St. Augustine, Ibn-Khaldun, Macchiavelli, Montesquieu, and many other great thinkers had written on man and society from a general standpoint, it was not until about the time the French Revolution stirred European civilization to its roots that thinkers began to study various special aspects of human social relations.
