上海市地方史志学会副秘书长、新编《川沙县志》副主编顾炳权撰写的《上海风俗古迹考》，最近由华东师范大学出版社出版。该书采用历史掌故与《竹枝词》相结合的方式，分门别类地记述上海的历史，其中征引的《竹枝词》近1600首，既是风土杂考之书，又是上海《竹枝词》的选本。全书48万字。

We have collected and selected historical materials related to the Small Swords Society（Xiao Dao Hui） Uprising. Apart from revolutionary literature, the majority of these materials consist of archives, newspapers, private writings, and notes from the reactionary rule of the Qing Dynasty and imperialist forces. These materials have significant historical value, and we have compiled them for researchers' reference. The editing methods we have adopted are as follows:

1. The collected materials, both in Chinese and foreign languages, are complex in content and form. To preserve the original documents, we generally refrain from cutting or fragmenting them. The materials are divided into six sections based on their nature. To provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the history of the Small Swords Society Uprising, we have prepared two introductory pieces: "Overview of the Small Swords Society Uprising" and "Timeline of Major Events in the Small Swords Society Uprising." These sections are accompanied by revolutionary artifacts, photographs, and maps, placed at the beginning of the compilation.

2. The materials in this compilation are divided into six sections: the first section contains literature on the Small Swords Society, the second section consists of records and reports on the uprising and its battles in Shanghai, the third section comprises archival materials on the Qing Dynasty's feudal ruling class suppressing  the Small Swords Society Uprising, the fourth section includes archives and records of foreign invaders' interference in the Small Swords Society Uprising, the fifth section contains other relevant historical materials on the uprising, and the sixth section comprises materials on the uprisings of the people in the counties near Shanghai, along with related materials documenting the response from Ningbo, Zhejiang.

3. Before each section, the editors have provided commentary to explain the content, nature, and historical value of the included materials, allowing readers to gain a clear understanding of each section.

4. Under each material's title, the editors have provided an evaluation to help readers understand the source, version, authors' perspectives, the historical value of the work, and any inaccuracies it may contain.

5. The titles of the materials are generally preserved without modification. Only a few highly reactionary titles that defame the revolution and are intolerable have been modified, with the original titles still included as annotations after the respective materials.

6. With regards to the foreign language materials in this compilation, the majority have been translated and selected by us. The translated names of individuals and places strive to match those already published. When using older translations from various books, we have made uniform changes to names of individuals and places while leaving the rest unchanged. A table providing name translations is included at the end. The most challenging to translate are the revolutionary documents. We have referenced the Chinese style of the Small Swords Society's proclamations to restore their original appearance as much as possible. However, due to significant differences between the Chinese literary style and English writing conventions, we can only strive for approximation.

7. The Chinese materials included in this compilation have undergone collation using different versions. We have selected the better versions and supplemented them using other editions. For example, "The Origins and Development of Westernization" was chosen over "The Qing Veritable Records" due to the former's earlier publication date. Similarly, for revolutionary documents of the Small Swords Society with multiple versions, the best version was chosen as the base text, with other versions used for supplementation and accompanied by explanations.

8. The materials related to the Shanghai Xidao Club Uprising in the North China Herald amount to approximately 160,000 words. Among them are original revolutionary documents that have been lost, detailed reports on the battles, historical records of imperialist occupation of customs and concessions, as well as special features on the Qing Dynasty's feudal rule compromising and surrendering. Based on the nature of these materials, they have been categorized and included in the respective sections. The discovery of revolutionary documents provides new evidence for studying the political situation of the Small Swords Society and their relationship with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Although the continuous reports on the battles contain the perspective of the aggressors, they are still detailed historical materials of the revolutionary war. Therefore, we have compiled these reports for readers' reference.

9. The sources and origins of the cultural relics' images included in this compilation are indicated. Among them, the photos of Jiading were taken during our own investigation, and the maps were drawn by us.

10. We are currently lacking investigative materials on the Small Swords Society Uprising. We have only conducted preliminary investigations in Jiading. We hope comrades from Shanghai, Jiading, Qingpu, Baoshan, Nanhui, Chuansha, and other counties can assist us in order to supplement the investigative materials in the future.

11. This compilation of historical materials is a thematic collection aimed at organizing the history of the Shanghai people's struggles and supplementing the historical materials of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Due to the limited collection time and insufficient in-depth work, there may inevitably be omissions and errors

This book was published in 1933 by the Shanghai Evening Post & Mercury Press. The author, Yu Muxia, was a native of Qingpu in Shanghai and had achieved the title of "Xiucai" in the late Qing dynasty's imperial examination. During the Republican era, he worked for various newspapers, including the 'Current Events News' and the 'Shanghai Morning Post.'

The term '鳞爪' (linzhao) metaphorically refers to fragments of events. The book 'Shanghai Moments' primarily focuses on the appearance of old Shanghai during the 1920s to 1930s. It covers a wide range of aspects of life within the international settlements of that time, providing intricate descriptions that encompassed various domains. The book delves into meticulous portrayals of life in the concessions, depicting characters from different strata of society. It also exposes the shadowy corners of society such as gambling houses, courtesans, and opium dens, unveiling the world of hidden creatures and spirits. Through the use of coded language and insider secrets, the writing vividly and engagingly captures the social landscape of old Shanghai, allowing readers to gain a comprehensive understanding of the societal customs and human interactions on the bustling shores of that era.

本书于1933年在上海沪报馆刊印出版，作者郁慕侠是上海青浦人，曾在晚清考中秀才。在民国时期，曾在《时事新报》、《沪报》等多家报馆工作。

The various forms of vehicles depict a myriad of appearances and experiences, each reflecting the cycles of prosperity and decline. The evolution and transformation of vehicles throughout this period are intricately linked to economic growth, societal shifts, and historical developments. Over the course of nearly a century, the historical evolution of diverse vehicle types can shed light on the development and changes in the social, political, and economic landscape of old Shanghai. This book aims to offer young readers a concise portrayal of the transportation and customs of old Shanghai, allowing them to gain a more comprehensive understanding of today's Shanghai through insights into the past and prospects for the future. This is precisely the author's aspiration.

车子大观园里格式车子各有相貌又迭有兴衰，期间的演化沿革自然由于经济增长、社会变化、历史发展息息相关。在近百年间各式车子的历史演变也可以从一个侧面反映出旧上海市的社会政治、经济活动和人情风俗的发展变化。本书意在为青年朋友贡献一副简明的旧上海交通风俗画，以便于通过了解过去而更全面地认识今天的上海及展望未来，这正是笔者的愿望所在。

Shanghai Wing On Department Store was the largest and fairly capable 'Universal' department store in old China, enjoying a certain reputation both domestically and internationally. It was initiated by Australian Chinese immigrants Guo Le and Guo Quan, among others. Established in 1918 and continuing until the liberation, it underwent a process of public-private partnership. Over nearly forty years of history, it held a significant position and influence in China's national capitalist commercial economy. Throughout its long-standing commercial activities, Wing On Department Store accumulated considerable experience in capitalist business management. Leveraging this experience, it managed to survive and achieve some development amidst the oppression from imperialism and bureaucratic capital, both domestically and internationally. However, under the historical conditions of old China, it eventually declined from its peak and faced extremely challenging circumstances, ultimately succumbing to the imminent fate of bankruptcy. We believe that a detailed analysis of this typical commercial enterprise is beneficial for further studying China's national capitalist economy and the national bourgeoisie.

上海永安公司是旧中国规模最大、有相当经营能力并曾在当时国内外享有一定声誉的“环球”百货公司，它由澳洲华侨郭乐、郭泉兄弟等人发起创设，从1918年正式开幕到解放后实行公私合营，经历了近四十年的历史进程，它在我国民族资本主义商业经济中具有一定的影响和地位。上海永安公司在长时期的商业活动中，积累了比较丰富的资本主义经营管理的经验，并借助于此，得以在帝国主义和官僚资本内外压迫的夹缝中生存和获得某些发展。但是在旧中国的历史条件下，它终于由盛转衰，处境十分艰难，最终无法逃脱濒于破产的历史命运。我们认为，具体剖析这一典型的商业企业，对于进一步研究我国民族资本主义经济和民族资产阶级是有益处的。

Shanghai is the cradle of the Chinese working class and the largest economic center in China. It is also a place where female workers and educated women are relatively concentrated. For a long time, Shanghai women have been striving for self-improvement and unity. In the New Democratic Revolution and the Socialist Revolution and construction, they played the role of the 'half of the sky.' Since the reform and opening up, Shanghai women have displayed a new demeanor of self-respect, self-improvement, and active progress. They have embraced an open mindset towards the whole country and the world, a dedication to work, and a spirit of contributing to society. They have been active in various fields of political, economic, and social life, producing a group of contemporary female heroes embodying the unique charm of Shanghai women, earning praise and admiration from society.

The 'Shanghai Women's Chronicles' comprehensively and systematically reflect the history and current situation of Shanghai women. It not only enriches the cultural treasury of local chronicles, helping us understand the situation of Shanghai women, but also serves as a positive influence for us to understand Marxist views on women, implement the basic state policy of gender equality, and promote the development and progress of Shanghai women.

The progress of women is a symbol of social progress. Respecting and protecting women is the moral trend that a civilized society should follow. We hope that the whole society will care about women's work, effectively safeguard the equal status and rights of women in national politics, economics, and social life, and create better conditions for their participation in social production and various activities. Women's federations and women's organizations at all levels should listen to the voices of women, do their best to alleviate their worries, educate and unite women from all walks of life, promote the spirit of 'self-respect, self-confidence, self-reliance, and self-strengthening,' actively engage in reform and opening up and modernization, fully utilize their intelligence and wisdom, and further play the role of the 'half of the sky.

上海是中国工人阶级的摇篮和中国最大的经济中心城市，也是女职工和知识妇女较为集中的地方。长期以来，上海妇女自强不息，团结奋斗，在新民主主义革命和社会主义革命与建设中，都发挥了“半边天”的作用。改革开放以来，上海妇女更以自尊自强、积极进取的崭新风貌，面向全国、走向世界的开放意识，爱岗敬业、报效社会的奉献精神，活跃在政治、经济、社会生活的各个领域，涌现了一批具有时代精神、体现上海妇女独特风采的巾帼英雄，受到了社会的好评和称颂。 《上海妇女志》全面系统地反映了上海妇女的历史和现状，不仅丰富了地方志的文化宝库，有助于我们了解上海妇女的情况，而且对我们以史为鉴，正确认识马克思主义的妇女观，进一步贯彻男女平等的基本国策，推动上海妇女的发展和进步，将起到积极的作用。 妇女的进步是社会进步的标志。尊重妇女、保护妇女是文明社会应有的道德风尚。希望全社会都来关心妇女工作，切实维护妇女在国家政治、经济和社会生活中的平等地位和各项权益，为她们参加社会生产和各项社会活动创造更好的条件。各级妇联和妇女组织更要倾听妇女的呼声，尽力为她们排忧解难，教育和团结各界妇女，努力发扬“自尊、自信、自立、自强”精神，积极投身改革开放和现代化建设，充分施展聪明才智，进一步发挥“半边天”作用。

Photocopies of published census results for all but two censuses held by the SMC between 1865 and 1942. The exceptions are 1870, and 1890, but the core data for those years was published for comparative purposes in 1876 and 1895. These are scans of medium-quality working photocopies of originals from the SMC Annual Reports, SMC Municipal Gazette, or pamphlets. Book marks in the PDF will guide you to each invdidual census. Although these are International Settlement surveys, they also often contain data for comparative purposes from the French concession, and surrounding Chinese administered suburbs. No census was held in 1940.

On August 13, 1937, the Battle of Shanghai erupted, marking the beginning of the Chinese resistance against Japanese aggression. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) led the people of Shanghai in their anti-Japanese and national salvation movement, actively supporting the Nationalist Party's (Kuomintang) war efforts. After the fall of Shanghai, the CCP maintained and expanded its presence in Shanghai, engaging in a wide range of activities aimed at building a united front against the Japanese occupation. They rallied individuals from all walks of life to sustain a prolonged resistance against the Japanese while also dispatching forces to the regions near Shanghai, such as Jiangnan and Jiangbei, to carry out armed struggles in the enemy-occupied territories.

In the rural areas surrounding Shanghai, which were tightly controlled by Japanese puppet authorities, the CCP initiated and organized guerrilla warfare against the Japanese starting in 1938. They gradually established several guerrilla bases over the course of eight years, resembling steel daggers driven into the heart of the enemy. These guerrilla forces, in collaboration with the New Fourth Army's eastward expeditionary units, played a vital role in commanding and striking against Japanese puppet forces, supporting resistance bases in the hinterlands of central China and eastern Zhejiang, and coordinating with the urban population's anti-Japanese and national salvation movement. The Shanghai suburban guerrilla warfare was an integral aspect of the broader anti-Japanese struggle in Shanghai and a critical component of the extensive battlefield in the eastern region of China.

This book compiles the history of the CCP-led resistance in Shanghai's suburbs, recounting the arduous and remarkable eight-year struggle, emphasizing the hard-fought victories that provide profound inspiration. The guerrilla warfare in Shanghai's suburbs unfolded under extremely challenging and complex circumstances. The CCP-led anti-Japanese guerrilla forces upheld the banner of national liberation, implemented comprehensive political strategies for the war effort, and actively engaged and armed the masses. They steadfastly resisted Japanese aggression and opposed surrender, representing the strong patriotic desire of the suburban population to avoid becoming slaves of a foreign invader. Thus, the guerrilla forces, distinct from local armed factions, possessed the broadest popular support. The collaboration between the armed forces and the people was the key to success in the eight-year-long resistance, relying on the valiant guerrilla fighters and the heroic people who shielded and supported the guerrilla warfare.

The CCP-led guerrilla forces diligently followed the policy of "develop progressive forces, win over middle-of-the-road forces, isolate stubborn reactionary forces." They extensively worked on building a united front against the Japanese occupation, rallying and winning over social elites and enlightened gentry, reforming local forces affiliated with various factions of the Nationalist Party, and converting patriotic soldiers from the puppet regime. They established democratic anti-Japanese governments, achieving considerable success. Depending on the local conditions and the balance of power between friend and foe, the guerrilla forces adopted diverse and flexible strategies, such as utilizing legal means and conducting open struggles or engaging in covert operations deep within enemy territory. All of these strategies aimed at gaining allies, isolating enemies, and strengthening their own position. The CCP's united front work was an essential weapon that allowed the suburban guerrilla warfare to endure, grow, and eventually triumph in the face of the strict control and complexity of the enemy-occupied territories.

The CCP-led suburban guerrilla warfare underwent a challenging and convoluted process of development, contraction, and subsequent expansion leading to victory. In the early stages of the resistance, the CCP tirelessly established and developed secret party organizations in the suburban areas, forming a strong leadership core that laid the organizational foundation for creating anti-Japanese armed forces and launching mass movements. During the long and difficult phase of anti“Combing-Out” struggles, the CCP made the correct decision to preserve their core strength and relocate their main forces. Local party organizations at all levels maintained prolonged concealment in their original locations, rallied the masses, accumulated strength, and conducted covert operations. They not only steadfastly preserved and expanded the anti-Japanese front in the suburbs but also provided vital support to the struggles in the anti-Japanese bases in southern Jiangsu, central Jiangsu, northern Jiangsu, and eastern Zhejiang. The CCP's correct leadership was the fundamental guarantee of victory in the struggle.

The success of the suburban anti-Japanese guerrilla warfare in Shanghai was also a result of the close cooperation and mutual support between urban and rural areas. From the beginning of the suburban armed resistance, the underground CCP in Shanghai adhered to the central directives and sent key party members and material support to aid the suburban guerrilla warfare. The valiant struggle of the suburban population and their continuous victories greatly boosted the confidence of the urban population, reaffirming the belief in ultimate victory. The cooperation and mutual support between urban and rural areas, the steadfast commitment to the struggle, were indispensable conditions for achieving the final victory of the resistance.

The compilation and publication of this book are meaningful and necessary. Due to the war conditions of the past, historical records of the Shanghai suburban anti-Japanese guerrilla warfare have not been fully preserved, and without timely collection and organization, numerous remarkable achievements and valuable historical experiences that are still relevant today might be lost. Comrades Zhang Yiyu, Weng Sanxin, and Li Fei, in a three-year effort, conducted interviews with nearly a hundred veteran comrades, examined relevant archives and materials, and collaborated with party history collectors from various counties in the Shanghai suburbs and sister provinces and counties. They collected a vast amount of information, which was then sorted, verified, and researched to compile this comprehensive and reliable historical record. This undoubtedly constitutes a valuable contribution to accurately and thoroughly document party history and provides a systematic historical reference for the veterans who participated in the struggle and researchers of party history.

Finally, as this book is being released, we respectfully commemorate the martyrs who valiantly sacrificed their lives in the fight against Japanese aggression. We extend our profound respect to the veteran comrades and soldiers who led and participated in the suburban anti-Japanese guerrilla warfare. Their heroic achievements will forever be recorded in the annals of the people's revolutionary struggle.

一九三七年八月十三日，上海抗战爆发。中国共产党领导了上海人民的抗日救亡运动，积极支援国民党军队的抗战。上海沦陷后，中国共产党一面保持和发展着上海群众运动的阵地，广泛开展抗日民族统一战线工作，团结各阶层人士进行持久的抗日斗争，另一面输送力量到上海附近的江南、江北一带开展敌后武装斗争。 在日伪反动统治严密控制的上海郊县农村，中共从一九三八年起就积极发动和组织抗日游击战争，并逐步建立起若干游击根据地，经过历时八年的艰苦斗争，犹如一把把钢刀插在敌人的心脏里。郊县的抗日武装与新四军东进部队相结合，在率制和打击日伪力量，支援华中、浙东敌后抗日根据地和配合上海城市人民抗日救亡运动等方面，均起到了重要的作用。上海郊县抗日游击战争是上海人民抗日斗争的重要方面，也是华东广大敌后战场的重要组成部分。 1 .本书汇集了党领导的上海郊县抗日武装斗争始末，回顾八年艰苦卓绝的战斗历程，深感胜利来之不易，给人以深刻启迪。 上海郊县的抗日武装斗争是在极端困难和复杂的环境中进行的。党领导的抗日游击队高举民族解放战争的旗帜，实行全面抗战的政治主张，广泛发动群众、武装群众，坚持抗日，反对投降，代表着郊县广大群众不愿做亡国奴的强烈爱国愿望。因此，我们的游击队，有别于任何派系组织的地方武装，拥有最广泛的群众基础。兵民是胜利之本，八年抗战得以坚持，依靠着英勇的游击队指战员，也依靠着掩护和支援游击战争的英雄人民。 中共领导的抗日游击队，认真贯彻“发展进步势力，争取中间势力，孤立顽固势力”的方针，广泛开展抗日民族统一战线工作，团结、争取社会名流、开明士绅，争取改造国民党各派系的地方部队，策反伪军中具有爱国心的官兵，建立三三制抗日民主政权，均取得较大成绩。根据当地当时形势的变化和敌我力量的对比，游击武装在党的领导下，又采取了灵活多样的斗争策略，如利用合法，进行公开的斗争；深入敌营，坚持隐蔽斗争等等。这些都服务于争取同盟者，孤立敌人，壮大自己。党的统战工作是郊县抗日武装在敌伪势力严密控制、错综复杂的敌占区能够长期生存、发展、壮大，最终克敌制胜的重要法宝。 中共领导的郊县抗日武装斗争经历了发展、收缩、再发展，直至胜利的艰难曲折过程。抗战初期，党就开始坚持不懈地秘密建立和发展郊县各级党组织，形成坚强的领导核心，为创建抗日武装，莲勃开展群众运动莫定了组织基础。在漫长而艰苦的反清乡斗争阶段，党又正确地决定，为保存有生力量，主力部队转移，各级地方党组织坚持原地长期埋伏，团结群众，积蓄力量，开展隐蔽斗争。既出色地坚持和发展了郊区抗日阵地，又支援了苏南、苏中、苏北和浙东抗日根据地的斗争，为迎接抗战胜利作出了可贵的贡献。党的正确领导，是斗争胜利的根本保证。 上海郊县抗日武装斗争的成功，也是城市和农村紧密配合，互相支援的成果。从上海郊县武装斗争一开始，上海地下党就遵循中央指示，输送了党的骨干力量和物资支援郊县武装斗争，郊县人民的英勇斗争和不断取得的胜利，又极大地鼓舞了城市人民抗战必胜的信心。城乡配合，互相支援，坚持斗争，也为抗战取得最终胜利，提供了必不可少的条件。 本书的编纂和出版是一项很有意义和必要的工作。由于过去的战争环境，上海郊县抗日武装斗争的史料，无法完整地保存至今，如不及时搜集、整理，大量可歌可颂的战斗业绩和至今仍值得借鉴的历史经验，就有湮没的可能。张义渔、翁三新、李飞三位同志化了三年时间，走访了近百位老同志，查阅了有关档案和资料，并与市郊各县和兄弟省、县的党史征集工作者协作，收集了大量资料，经整理、查核、研究，汇编成这本较为完整可信的史料书。这无疑为立准、立好党史，做了件有益的工作，也为参加当年斗争的老同志和党史研究工作者，提供较为系统的历史资料。 最后，值此出版本书之际，谨向在这场抗击日本侵略者斗争中英勇牺牲的烈士，致以深切的悼念。向当年领导和参加过郊县抗日游击战争的老同志、老战士致以崇高的敬意。他们的英勇业绩，将永远载入人民革命斗争的史册。

"Starting from Yang Weizhen's 'Cloudy Bamboo Branch Lyrics' in the Yuan Dynasty, over ten thousand bamboo branch lyrics have been passed down. Particularly since the opening of Shanghai as a port, local literati as well as those who traveled from various places were struck by the unique atmosphere and extravagant displays of foreign influence in the city. This led to the creation of a significant number of bamboo branch lyrics. These verses are often accompanied by annotations akin to historical anecdotes, making them a vital historical resource related to Shanghai.

Mr. Gu Bingquan, engaged in local historical work since the 1980s, has deeply appreciated and diligently collected bamboo branch lyrics for their special ability to 'supplement history with poetry'. His work 'Shanghai's Foreign Concessions Bamboo Branch Lyrics' compiles a total of 74 types of bamboo branch lyrics related to Shanghai's foreign concessions, totaling over 4,000 pieces, divided into two sections. The first section comprises 16 types, including single volumes or copied versions of bamboo branch lyrics published during various periods. The second section includes 59 types selected by the compiler from newspapers, periodicals, and books of the time. This work serves as an excellent reference for researchers in Shanghai history and folk studies.

Gu Bingquan (1936-1999), born in Gonglu Town, Chuansha County, Shanghai (now Cao Road Town, Pudong New Area), had a lifelong passion for reading. His research achievements particularly encompass local history, historical bamboo branch lyrics, and tea culture. He held positions such as Deputy Chief Editor of 'Chuansha County Annals,' Deputy Editor-in-Chief of the Pudong New Area Historical Records Compilation Office, Contract Researcher at the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences Institute of History, and Deputy Director and Secretary-General of the Shanghai Tea Culture Research Center. He authored works including 'Historical Bamboo Branch Lyrics of Shanghai,' 'Studies on Shanghai Customs and Historic Sites,' and 'Shanghai's Foreign Concessions Bamboo Branch Lyrics.' He also participated in or led the compilation of numerous books, including 'Chuansha County Annals,' 'Continuation of Chuansha County Annals,' 'Chinese Tea and Alcohol Dictionary,' 'Culinary Culture Dictionary,' 'Grand Views of Pudong's Past and Present,' 'Pudong New Area Placename Annals,' and 'Pudong Dictionary,' among others."

上海自元代杨维桢《云间竹枝词》开始，流传的竹枝词有万首以上。特别自上海开埠后，当地文人，以及各地游屐，深感洋场风声气息之殊异，奇技淫巧之纷陈，写下了大量的竹枝词，一般都有类似笔记掌故的注解，是一宗不容忽视的有关上海的历史资料。顾炳权先生从20世纪80年代起从事地方史志工作，对于竹枝词「以诗补史」的特别功效一直深有体会并用心搜集。《上海洋场竹枝词》收入有关上海洋场之竹枝词共74种，计4000余首，分为前后两编。前编16种，为各时期出版之竹枝词单行本或抄、稿本；后编59种，系编者从当时出版之报刊图书中辑录者，是上海史和民俗学研究者极好的参考资料。
