Peking Gazette
The ''Peking Gazette'' was an official bulletin published with changing frequency in Beijing until 1912, when the Qing dynasty fell and Republican China was born. The translated name, as it is known to Western sources, comes from Ming dynasty-era Jesuits, who followed the bulletin for its political contents. The ''Peking Gazette'' became a venue for political grievances and infighting during the reign of the Wanli Emperor in the late Ming dynasty, when '' literati'' factions would submit politicized memorials that the Emperor often abstained from reviewing. From around 1730, the publication was in Chinese called ''Jing Bao'' (京报, sometimes transliterated ''Ching Pao''), literally "the Capital Report". It contained information on court appointments, edicts, and the official memorials submitted to the emperor, and the decisions made or deferred.Wolfgang Mohr, ''Die moderne chinesische Tagespresse'', vol. 1 (Wiesbaden, 1976), pp. 13–14.

Qing Dynasty Literature
The Qing dynasty ( ), officially the Great Qing,, was a Manchu-led imperial dynasty of China and the last orthodox dynasty in Chinese history. It emerged from the Later Jin dynasty founded by the Jianzhou Jurchens, a Tungusic-speaking ethnic group who unified other Jurchen tribes to form a new "Manchu" ethnic identity. The dynasty was officially proclaimed in 1636 in Manchuria (modern-day Northeast China and Outer Manchuria). It seized control of Beijing in 1644, then later expanded its rule over the whole of China proper and Taiwan, and finally expanded into Inner Asia.
