Hǎicháo yīn 海潮音
Sound of the Sea Tide
  • Print run: On the mainland 1920 - April 1949 (352 total issues); it continues publishing to this day in Taiwan

Hǎicháo yīn 海潮音 (Sound of the Sea Tide) was the longest-running Chinese Buddhist periodical, and one of the most influential.

Its precursor was Juéshè cóngshū 覺社叢書 (Awakening Society Collectanea). Founded in 1918, but after its fifth issue in 1919 it was renamed the Hǎicháo yīn. Issues 1-6 under the new title featured on their covers the note "The monthly publication compiled by the Awakening Society" 覺社編叢之月刊, perhaps to emphasize its link with the society and its earlier publication. Later issues also feature similar notes.

It initially had quite a small circulation, perhaps as few as 100 copies per issue, until Shanghai Buddhist Books 上海佛學書局 started publishing it in the early 1930s, after which it gained a much wider distribution.[1]

Note that a better quality reproduction can be found in the edition published in 2003 by Shànghǎi gǔjì chūbǎnshè 上海古籍出版社. This is especially true for photographs.[2]

Notes

  1. This may be one reason why, for example, in 1930 Earl Cressy's survey reported only one monastic in Hángzhōu 杭州 who read it.
