*''Location: Wuxi, northeast of [[Suzhou]]''
The Donglin Academy, founded in [[1604]] in Wuxi, just northeast of [[Suzhou]], was a prominent center of political thought in the late [[Ming Dynasty]]. In particular, it became a center of so-called "pure criticism" of certain factions and policies at the Imperial Court; disputes between the supporters of the Donglin scholars, and their opponents, consumed much activity at court in the final decades of the dynasty.
