公历1871年日本的儒学者中村正直译英国人 Samuel Smiles 著的书
Self Help (自助论).  这书解说欧州的政体和社会制度.
日本明治时代 (1868-1912) 的文人很爱是书.

译者中村正直以汉文记其序文.是名文也.
但今年在日本,多人不知道是书.


In 1871, Confucianist scholar 中村正直 (Nakamura Masanao)
translated 'Self Help' by Samuel Smiles.  This book served
as a guide to European political and social institutions
and was very popular in the Meiji Era.

The translator's preface was in classic Chinese.  It is great.
However, many people in Japan today do not know about this book.


西国立志编

自助论第一编序

余译是书.
客有过而问者.曰.子何不译兵书.
余曰.子谓兵强则国赖以治安乎.
且谓西国之强由于兵呼.
是大不然.
夫西国之强.由于人民笃信天道.
由于人民有自主之权.
由于政宽法公.
拿破崙论战曰.德行之力.十倍于身体之力.  [*1]
斯迈而斯曰.国之强弱.关于人民之品行.    [*2]
又曰.真实良善.为品行之本.
盖国者.人众相合之称.
故人人品行正.则风俗美.
风俗美.则一国协和.
合成一体.强何足言.
若国人品行未正.风俗未美.而徒汲汲乎兵事之是讲.
其不陷而为好斗嗜杀之俗者几希.
尚何治安之可望哉.
且由天理而论.
则欲强之一念.大悖於正矣.
何者.强者对弱之称也.
天生斯民.欲人人同受安乐.同修道德.同崇知识.同勉艺业.
岂欲此强而彼弱.此优而彼劣哉.
故地球万国.当以学问文艺相交.利用厚生之道.互相资益.
彼此安康.共受福祉.如此.
则何有乎较强弱竞优劣哉.
夫人知天命之可畏.
以真实之心.行良善之事.
一人如此.一家如此.一国如此.天下如此.
爱日仁风.四海合驩.慈云和气.六合呈祥.如此.  [*3]
则亦何有乎甲兵铳砲之用哉.
古不云乎.兵者凶器.战者危事也.
仁者无敌.善战者服上刑.
一仁之命.重於全地球.
匹夫之善行.有关系於邦国天下者.
乃以贪地之故.使至贵至重之人命.横罹极惨极毒之祸.
其违皇天之意.负造化之恩.罪不可逭矣. [*4]
西国近时.大省刑罚.
然犹未能全戢干戈.
岂其教化有未洽者耶.
抑宇宙泰运之期未至耶.
鸣呼.六合之际.礼教盛而兵刑废.当有日也.
恨余与子未及见之也已.
客唯唯而退.遂书以辩卷首.
岁次上章敦牂.  [*5]
孟夏上浣.
中村正直识.

I'm using Ubuntu and have no problem reading them.

However, if you are trying to find an IME which can be used to input
large amount of Chinese characters, I recommend trying Pinyin IME,
if you know Pinyin. Or Zhuyin (bopomopo) for traditional Chinese. Or
even use anthy if you do not know much about them. Only use IMEs
capable of typing rarely used characters as an alternate.

Several IME widely used by native Chinese speaking people in open
source community:

* SunPinyin (ibus/scim/fcitx/xim frontend included, believed capable
to type in most rarely used characters)
* fcitx-pinyin
* ibus-pinyin
* scim-pinyin

Also, you may try those alternate IME schemas:

* wubi (five stroke)
* biaoxingma (表形码, literally "shape based code")
* zhengma (郑码)

Hi,
1, here's a web page testing your font's capabilities. (
http://ctext.org/font-test-page/zh )
2,
I recommend Cangjie to input rare chinese.
I hardly input rarely used chinese.
but it seems that it's difficult to input rarely used chinese
by pronunciation.
I have copied some text in CJK Extension D to match the cangjie table in my
IME, and it matched.
And I use rimeime (http://code.google.com/p/rimeime). it provides pinyin,
zhuyin, and cangjie.
It's not available in most linux distros' official repo.


$ LANG=C grep '𫞂' cangjie5.table.bin
Binary file cangjie5.table.bin matches

$ LANG=C grep '𫠝' cangjie5.table.bin
Binary file cangjie5.table.bin matches
