Collected Works of Fang Guoyu (Volume 4)

Author: Fang Guoyu
Publisher:
Publishing Date: 2001-08-01
Features: Professor Fang Guoyu was a renowned historian, ethnologist, linguist, and educator. He was the pioneer of Southwest ethnic history and the founder of Yunnan local history, leaving behind substantial academic achievements. This collection includes a large number of his works that were not previously published or compiled, divided into five volumes. Volume I includes several theoretical articles from his later years and works related to the pre-Qin to Jin dynasties; Volume II contains works on the Tang and Song dynasties; Volume III features works on the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties; Volume IV presents research in epigraphy, ethnology, and historical geography; Volume V includes his linguistic and phonological works from before the age of thirty. Professor Fang's three-volume work, Lectures on the History of Yunnan Ethnic Groups, written in the 1950s, was too substantial to be included in this collection and will be published as a separate book in the future. The articles in this collection are printed as they were originally published in newspapers or based on Professor Fang's manuscripts and typed drafts, with only minor corrections made for obvious typographical errors. Many of Professor Fang's manuscripts and typed drafts lacked punctuation, so for the convenience of readers, the editors added punctuation.
