Publishing Date: 1997-12-01
Features: This book is one of the "Collected Notes on Qing Historical Materials" series. It was written by Liu Xianting (1648–1695) in the early Qing Dynasty and consists of five volumes. The book does not categorize its content; it is a casual record, covering topics such as "ritual music, astronomy, medicine, mathematics, law, agriculture, fire warfare, and artifact design," characterized by its "heterogeneity." The records are detailed and trustworthy. However, the book is renowned for its insightful analysis and meticulous documentation, and thus should not be dismissed as merely "heterogeneous."
