Fusang and beyond: The Haunted Seas to Japan
Abstract
The transit from T'ang to Japan is reflected in poems written by Chinese gentlemen at farewell parties held in honor of departing Japanese monks. These dwell on the wonders and dangers of the high seas, and speculate about the location of the fabulous land of Fu-sang, at the birthplace of the sun. After some discussion of the inhuman creatures one might expect to encounter on the passage, this essay focuses on their strange floating palaces, and closes with an intimate view of these in the rich language of a poetic rhapsody by Wang Ch'i.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
