Publication of the Punctuated Edition of the Shunzhi Lishui County Gazetteer

A year and a half of editorial work, reported in 2017

A 2017 report states that a punctuated and annotated edition of the Lishui County Gazetteer (Shunzhi edition) was formally published after about a year and a half of work. The publication year, publisher and editors could not be verified here.

The punctuated edition

According to a report by China Jiangsu Net dated April 2017, a punctuated and annotated edition of the Lishui County Gazetteer (Shunzhi edition) was formally published after about a year and a half of editorial work.

Comparison of editions

For comparison, this site has examined volume 11, the "Literature" section, of the Kangxi edition of the gazetteer, which carries pieces such as the following:

自溧水道中哭王炎三首 李 白

Translated: Three Poems Mourning Wang Yan on the Road from Lishui, by Li Bai.

The differences in volume division and contents between the Shunzhi and Kangxi editions have not been checked volume by volume; the comparison is offered only as a lead.

Awaiting further material

First, the publication year, publisher, editors and book number of the punctuated edition could not be verified and are not supplied here; citation should follow a formal bibliographic record.

Second, the editorial principles of the punctuated edition and the base text it used could not be verified and are not supplied here.

Uncertainties

Quotations from the punctuated edition must be checked against the facsimile before use. The source held by this site is a lead to the fact of publication only, and nothing is inferred from it about the editing of other gazetteers.
