Publishing Date: 2006-07-01
Features: A complete old handwritten copy of Ming Dynasty South Records, preserved in the Library of Hangzhou University, originally discovered by Mr. Zhang Yin (Muqian). Regarding this book and its author, Mr. Zhang discussed them in his article "Ji Liuqi and Ming Dynasty South and North Records," which has been appended to the newly published and annotated Ming Dynasty North Records. Here are some brief notes on the annotation work of Ming Dynasty South Records. Although this book was completed in the 10th year of the Kangxi reign (1670), due to the literary restrictions of the early Qing Dynasty, it was never published until the Jiaqing and Daoguang reigns, when the literary regulations were somewhat relaxed. It was then published in Beijing's Liulichang by the wood-type printing method of "Bansong Jushi," comprising 18 volumes.
