Encyclopedia Database

Information

The Encyclopedia Database is a free and open-access fulltext database containing encyclopedic works of the 19th and 20th centuries from different places in many languages. The purpose of the Encyclopedia Database is to “reveal the hidden grammars of transculturality”. We define encyclopedic writings as works that strive to present a comprehensive account of knowledge. Yet every piece of work is shaped by “hidden grammars”, which means the larger historical background of time and place, the circumstances of writing and publication, as well as people and ideas involved in the creation of a particular piece of work. By unfolding these layers in a clear structure, we want to draw a map of knowledge in space and time, and to trace back the cultural appropriation of key terms and concepts as they unfold their history in encyclopedic writings.

Leiden Weibo Corpus

Information

An annotated linguistic Corpus of Sina Weibo messages. The Leiden Weibo Corpus (LWC) contains 5.1 million messages from Sina Weibo, China’s premier Twitter-like microblogging service. Data for the LWC was collected in January 2012. As such, it contains many linguistic phenomena that may not be found in older corpora, such as suffixation with “-ing”, an aspectual marker borrowed from English. Furthermore, Sina Weibo messages come with valuable meta data, such as the gender of the user and his location. This information allows the LWC to calculate how often words are used in different provinces and cities across China, which is useful for research into lexical variation across China. Naturally, the LWC also supports searching for single words or grammar patterns, such as “any verb followed by an aspectual particle and then a noun”. This feature may also be of interest to students and teachers of Mandarin who are looking for example sentences.

JAANUS: Japanese Architecture and Art Net Users System

Information

This dictionary contains approximately 8000 terms related to traditional Japanese architecture and gardens, painting, sculpture and art-historical iconography from approximately the 1st century A.D. to the end of the Edo period (1868). Terms from related fields such as lacquer, ceramics, textiles and metalwork have been included where they are considered to be of general interest and/or impact on the principal fields of architecture, painting and sculpture. These definitions are not translations from any one Japanese monolingual dictionary, but have been collated from a range of specialist sources and scholarly publications, and from direct observation and study. Many have never before been defined in English.

Korean History: A Bibliography

Information

This bibliography covers many features of Korean history. The subjects include not only political, diplomatic, and economic history, but also historical linguistics, art history, literature, philosophy and religion, and overseas Koreans, for example. Chronologically, coverage concludes in the 1960s. I have not sought to compile a comprehensive list for each subject. Rather, I have provided publications that have appeared since the publication in 1980 of the annotated bibliography Studies on Korea: A Scholar's Guide and recent publications not cited in that work. This bibliography, then, is both an updating of and a supplement to that venerable reference.

Sammlung unterschiedlichster Archive und Webseiten zum Thema e-learning: "As information technology becomes increasingly widespread, the digitization technology, computer and communications technology, and the development of the Internet have influenced our society in an ever more profound way. In the past, information technology has brought about local changes to our daily work. Only with the rapid development of the Internet has information technology had such a comprehensive impact on our ways of social communication, knowledge conveyance, presentation and management, and moreover, on our perceptions of and approaches to research and education. Nowadays, the influence of digitization is society-wide and is increasing in importance all the time. Information technology has gradually altered our activities in our daily life, work, learning and leisure, thereby unveiling a digital era in which culture and education are changing in every aspect. The infrastructure for digital archives and e-learning includes the establishment of electronic databases, user habits, information technology literacy, Internet accessibility, government regulations and policies, advanced academic research environment, capabilities of industrial applications, services and marketing, etc. At present, the proportion of Internet users in Taiwan is one of the highest in the world; all the elementary, junior high, and high schools have Internet access. In addition, projects for e-government, e-commerce, broadband fixed network, e-learning and e-health have been set in motion. Furthermore, academic and research institutions have established solid technology foundations for electronic databases, information retrieval, language processing, the Internet, and multimedia presentation and management. Apart from government and academia, Taiwan's information technology industries and e-commerce services are also making good progress. Most of the required infrastructure for the development of digital archives and e-learning, therefore, has been set up."

Since 1980, Academia Sinica has started digitizing the archives and collections of its institutes. The Scripta Sinica database, officially accessible online since 1995, can rival the famous huge Chinese Ancient books database, Si Ku Quan Shu, in Ch'ing Dynasty. This online system has received much attention and has been used in Taiwan and worldwide. Since 2002, Academia Sinica has enlarged the digitization projects of its important collections, and made them available over the Internet. The contents include Taiwan's fishes, shells, aboriginal artifacts, paleography, ancient maps and contracts, and also include modern China's historical maps, remote sensing imagery, diplomatic and economic records, Chinese historical artifacts (such as archeological materials, engraved stones, stone and bronze rubbing, bamboo scripts, rare books, ethnological collection of Southwestern China, and the lexicon of Ming-Qing Archives), and Mandarin Chinese and Formosa language archives. There are nearly one hundred digital resources. Users can access these resources online via Internet, without needs to be physically present in the library, museum, or archive centers. There are 150 websites and over 1 million items of digital archives, accessible through the Internet portal, Academia Sinica Digital Resources. This is the world's largest Traditional Chinese digital database.

The Seattle Art Museum’s Collection of Chinese Painting and Calligraphy

Information

The Seattle Art Museum is home to a premier collection of Chinese art in North America, which was formed largely in the twentieth century during the directorship of museum founder Dr. Richard E. Fuller (director 1933-73). Although Seattle’s Chinese collection is best known for its jades, ceramics, and later Buddhist sculpture, during the directorship of Mimi Gardner Gates (director 1994–2009) and shaped by successive curators Jay Xu, Hsueh-man Shen and Josh Yiu, the collection of Chinese painting and calligraphy grew substantially, adding important works of the Ming and Qing dynasties as well as the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. While varied in quality and modest in size, Seattle’s collection of 152 Chinese painting and calligraphy has never been studied in depth and is heretofore largely unpublished. For the first time, it is being introduced and made universally accessible through this newly developed online catalogue, which features thoughtful and provocative essays about major works by renowned scholars, with high-resolution, zoom-able images of the works of art, and thorough documentation—including transcriptions and translations of inscriptions and colophons, and seals which are transcribed, identified and located.

North China Herald Online

字林星期周刊

Information

The English North China Herald is universally acclaimed as the prime printed source in any language for the history of the foreign presence in China from around 1850 to the 1940s. During this so-called ‘treaty century’ (1842-1943) the Great Western Powers established a strong presence in China through their protected enclaves in the major cities. It was published in Shanghai, at the heart of China’s dealing with the Euro-American world and a city at the forefront of developments in Chinese politics, culture, education and the economy. As the official journal for British consular notifications, and announcements of the Shanghai Municipal Council, it is the first – and sometimes only – point of reference for information and comment on a range of foreign and Chinese activities. Regularly it also features translations of Chinese official notifications and news. The Herald had correspondents across the whole of China. These supplied a constant stream of news of an incredible variety, such as, apart from news and gossip reflecting the social, cultural and political life of the foreign settlements; trade statistics, stock prices, Chinese news, essays on Chinese culture and language, law reports from foreign courts in the settlements, company reports, news on foreign social, cultural and political life, maps, cartoons, photographs, stock prices and law and company reports, advertisements, tables of tea, silk and cotton exports, or long-forgotten facts about missionaries, birth, marriage, and death announcements, facts about other foreign nationals – the French, Danish, Italian, German, Dutch, and so on. Although a thriving treaty port press developed over the century of the foreign presence, no other newspaper existed over such an extended period, and covers it in such incredible depth and variety. The dense unindexed columns of the Herald offer therefore an indispensable, still largely unexplored treasure-trove for any scholar of modern Chinese history. War, revolution and politics have conspired to destroy library holdings or frustrate access to publications from China’s treaty century. The fully text-searchable North China Herald online is one of the primary sources on a period which continues to shape much of China’s world and worldview.

Freer/Sackler Gallery: Song and Yuan Dynasty Painting and Calligraphy

Information

The Freer Gallery of Art possesses one of the most important collections of Chinese painting outside Asia, and its holdings from the Song and Yuan dynasties (10th–14th centuries) are particularly significant. The collection includes an extraordinary group of eighty-two paintings—illustrating a range of themes, compositions, and stylistic conventions—and three independent works of calligraphy, two of which take the form of rubbings. More than ninety other examples of Song and Yuan calligraphy are featured in frontispieces, inscriptions, or colophons attached to paintings. Many of the eighty-five Freer works have assumed near-iconic status in the study of Chinese brushwork in the West. Despite their exceptional quality, however, most are being thoroughly published for the first time on this website.

Scripta Sinica

漢籍電子文獻

Information

The project for the Scripta Sinica database began in 1984. The first aim of this project was to digitize all documents essential to research in traditional Sinology. Secondly, a full-text database was established for academic research. Until present, Scripta Sinica is the largest Chinese full text database to encompass an enormous breadth of historical materials of this scale.

More than 460 titles （new titles） and 402,000,000 characters of materials pertaining to the traditional Chinese classics have been included in the database and have been categorized with meticulous care. The Scripta Sinica database contains almost all of the important Chinese classics, especially those related to Chinese history. In the future, we will continue with the digitalization of more historical materials, and add new features to the system. We hope to provide scholars, students, and the general public with an excellent full-text database and search engine for the study of Chinese history and culture.

Visualizing Early Chinese Landscape Painting - A Lecture Series

Information

This videotaped and moving-image lecture series, conceived by U.C. Berkeley Professor Emeritus James Cahill, is a legacy of his life's work in the history of the visual arts of China. Composed of short introductions and over 2,200 detailed high-resolution images of selected Chinese paintings and works of pictorial art from the early period up to the end of the Song dynasty in the late thirteenth century, this series was written and narrated entirely by Professor Cahill. For ease of viewing, the lectures contain chapter markers identifying the major works of art discussed. In addition, the names of some artists and works are given in pinyin and traditional and simplified Chinese characters. Lecture notes, which provide further information on the topics discussed as well as suggested readings, accompany the video files. The goal of the project, which began in 2009 and continues into 2011, is the creation of approximately 34 hours of multimedia lecture-style presentations. The first six lectures (in seven files), each lasting one to two hours, are now available.

Western Books on China

Information

This new online collection comprises a descriptive, annotated bibliography of 654 early Western books on Imperial China up to 1850, all to be found in the Library of the School of Oriental and African Studies, London. The collection is based on the book Western Books on China published up to 1850 by John Lust.

The material is of unique historical interest, containing scrutiny of China by Western societies. The material contains an abundance of observations. The books, in a variety of Western languages, testify to the formidable difficulties encountered by Westerners, who attempted to extend their own familiar historical, linguistic and religious perceptions to the Chinese context.

In 1987 the project was published by IDC on microfiche. Now the collection is completely digitized to be published in an online subscription-based environment. The collection offers advanced research tools, such as MARC applications for the bibliographical material. Sources are now ranged by subject and all texts are fully readable. Search on title, author, language, year and place of publication is all possible. All pages can be printed and downloaded.

Naxi manuscripts collection

Information

Original materials were acquired by Joseph Francis Charles Rock (1884-1962) and Quentin Roosevelt (1919-1948). The Harvard-Yenching Library's holdings (510 from Joseph Rock and 88 from Quentin Roosevelt together with three long funereal scrolls) were acquired by Harvard-Yenching Institute in 1945.

The Naxi (Chinese people) are an ethnic minority in the northwestern part of Yunnan Province in China, near the borders of Tibet and Burma. The population is estimated to be around 250,000, and made up largely of farmers and traders. The Naxi language is the only remaining living pictographic language today.

Chinese Pamphlets: a digital collection

連環畫

Information

Political Communications and Mass Education in China in the Early Years of the People’s Republic.

The holdings at the Center for Research Libraries are especially rich in primary documents of political communications. The pamphlets, reports, newspapers, and other kinds of printed materials held by CRL chronicle the activities of political figures, parties and organizations around the globe. Such documents are vital source materials for history and area studies, but tend to be produced erratically and disappear quickly.

The Hunter Collection consists of mass education materials published in Hong Kong and in Mainland China, particularly Shanghai, in the years 1947-1954. These include approximately 200 cartoon books, pamphlets, postcards, and magazines, heavily pictorial in content, on such topics as foreign threats to Chinese security, Chinese relations with the Soviet Union, industrial and agricultural production, and marriage reform. The materials were produced by both Kuomintang (Chinese Nationalist) and Communist regimes, and appear to be directed at the general youth and adult populations of China.

Chinese Women's Magazines in the Late Qing and Early Republican Period

Information

This database of the Heidelberg Research Architecture (HRA) is linked to a collaborative project funded by the Social Science and Humanities Research Council of Canada and the German Humboldt Foundation. The primary objective of the project is to restore complexity to early-twentieth-century Chinese history by liberating that history from its own reductive discourses on the failings of tradition and the promise of modernity. Our instrument and object of investigation is the popular press, a new medium that dominated the contemporary print market and became one of the prime sites for the dissemination of knowledge and the production of culture. In particular, our focus is on four seminal women's or gendered journals—a key genre of the popular media—published between 1904 and 1937. They include Nüzi shijie (Women's World, 1904-07), Funü shibao (The Women's Eastern Times, 1911-17), Funü zazhi (The Ladies' Journal, 1915-31), and Linglong (Elegance, 1931-37).

Digital Archive of Bronze Rubbings

青銅器拓片數位典藏

Information

Fu Ssu-Nien Library of the Institute of History and Philology holds more than 10,000 bronze rubbings (bronze script rubbings) which are the treasured collections of the famous connoisseurs Liu Li-zh and Chen Jie-chi from the late Ch'ing to the early Republic of China. Many of these rubbings were made by the renown artisans Chou Kang-yuan and Wang Siou-ren themselves. These beautifully made and carefully sealed rubbings, not only preserving the scripts, decorative patterns and shapes of many bronze artefacts, but also recording the remarks and seals of many past collectors and reviewers, are great works of art. In order to improve both the public access to these precious rubbings and their preservation condition, the Institute has worked hard on their digitalisation for public use on line. In 2004 the Institute officially announced its Bronze Rubbings Digital Archives at a conference on bronze and stone.

Buddhist Rubbings Collection

佛教石刻造像拓本

Information

The Buddhist rubbings collection in Fu Ssu-nian Library is the largest one in Taiwan. A majority of these rubbings are from China, including Henan, Hebei, Shanxi, Shandong, Shaanxi, Sichuan and Gansu provinces. These rubbings are dated from the 5th century to the modern time. In addition, several rubbings are from foreign countries, such as the inscriptions of Sakyamuni and Bhaisajyaguru statues in the Golden Hall of Horyu-ji Tempel in Japan. From the seals on the rubbings, we know some former collectors such as Gui Fu, Duan Fang, Zhou Xingyi, Xu Naichang, Ke Changsi, Pan Zuyin and Liu Xihai. Some of the rubbings were collected by Mr. Shi Zhangru, a researcher of the institute, during his field trips in the Yao County, Shaanxi, in the 1940's. The content of the rubbing is generally about the wishes of the devotees, circumstances for making statues, including the organizations of the devotees. Writing of the epigraphy provides important social historical information for ancient China.

The Opium War instigated the dramatic changes in modern China. Negotiations with foreign powers after the middle of the 19th century became the core of development in Chinese history. Foreigners came to fight for their interests in China; China aimed at building up military might and national wealth as the way of survival. Since the late Qing, Chinese modern history has been focused on foreign issues and national development. The archives collected and store up on the Institute of Modern History of Academia Sinica from Chinese diplomatic and economic offices in the modern era are the jewels in the study of modern Chinese history. The project to digitalize this collections will help the keeping and improve the effectiveness of use of these files and build a more intimate and broader platform for academic dissemination and research needs.

This was facilitated by its economic muscle as a hub of trade and, increasingly, manufacturing, and the fact that as "foreign settlement" it offered to both foreigner and Chinese substantial freedoms by being outside of the censorship control of the Qing court and later of the Republican government. Other cities in China had little or none of such papers even after the fall of the Qing dynasty. However, Shanghai entertainment papers were available throughout the country through a dense distribution network.

Wanfang New Local Gazetteers

万方新方志

Information

Wanfang data's New Local Gazetteers database gives access to currently (10.2011) 10.931 titles falling into the greater genre of local monographs published in the PRC since 1949. It contains not only the local gazetteers of the different provinces, districts, counties and cities but also special monographs on, for example, the food industry or traffic administration of a certain area, as well as treatises on regional toponyms or famous persons. Local gazetteers are mostly officially sponsored and initiated and follow certain compilation rules. But they contain valuable details and accounts on larger and smaller administrative units of the PRC and thus provide important source materials for studying modern and contemporary China. The database may be searched by region, topic, resource type etc. and also by full text (which was done with OCR). Hit lists may be further drilled down by facets. A PDF of the smallest unit a hit belongs to is provided for reference and download. Together these units amount to more than 3,3 mio. No PDF of the whole title is offered.

Chinese Periodical Fulltext Databases (1833 - 1949)

晚清期刊、民 国时期期刊全文数据库

Information

The interface gives access to the early period of Chinese periodical publishing covering the time from the late Qing up to the end of the Republican period, that is from 1833 to 1949. Divided into two main parts and further subdivided into several batches the database will finally include more the 20,000 journals and more then 15 mio. articles. The material and expertise the project relies on is that of the Shanghai tushuguan and can be seen as a kind of "full text" extension of their Quanguo baosuoyin 全国报刊索引. While the first main part on the Late Qing, the 晚清期刊全文数据库 (1833-1911), is already completed, of the second part on the Republican period, 民国时期期刊全文数据库 (1911-1949), the first three batches have appeared, further two batches are expected for 2012.

Currently access to the 302 different journal titles of the Late Qing part and the first three batches of the Republican period part with more than 3500 journal titles are accessible. Further batches will follow.

The search interface allows users to search by article title, author, journal title, date, etc. and to view and download the respective article as scanned image pages embedded in a PDF. Under 期刊导航 (Browse by Journal) a short description of the publication history and content of each subscribed journal is given as well as the possiblity to get an overview of the issues published and the articles in each issue. Journals that appear in grey are not accessible resp. not subscribed. On the left hand side browsing via subject category is possible. By choosing 晚清期刊 or 民国时期期刊 from the 数据库 pull down menu one may confine the hit list to the respective database.

Note: what is labeled as 全文 (full text) in the database actually means 'complete text'. There is no searchable full text of the articles themselves.

Ukiyoe Karikaturen, 1842 - 1905 (Universität Wien)

Information

Die Tenpō-Reformen in den 1840er Jahren zu Ende der japanischen Abschließungsperiode betrafen die Welt der Holzschnitte durch zahlreiche Einschränkungen und Verbote, sie hatten aber auf die Welt der ukiyo-e vor allem einen nachhaltigen Effekt:

Die bisherigen Hauptthemen der Bilder, Kurtisanen und Schauspieler, verloren an Popularität, Karikaturen aller Art von politischen Karikaturen (fūshiga) bis zu harmlosen Scherzzeichnungen (giga) ohne tiefere Bedeutung setzten sich als neues Genre durch. Bis zum Ende der Tokugawa-Zeit blieben Karikaturen ein ungeheuer beliebtes Genre, und auch die Neuerungen der Meiji-Zeit und die autoritären Meiji-Regierung sind ein beliebtes Objekt von Karikaturen.

Dieses Genre ist bisher von der ukiyo-e-Forschung noch wenig erfasst worden, wozu sicherlich der schwierige Zugang - viele Bilder enthalten viel schwer lesbaren Text, die Texte und Bilder sind so verklausuliert, dass sie nur schwer verständlich sind - beiträgt. Dazu kommt, dass die herkömmliche ukiyo-e-Forschung ästhetische Kriterien bei der Auswahl ihrer Forschungsobjekte angewandt hat, die die Behandlung von Karikaturen von vorneherein ausschloss. Erst in den letzten zwei Jahrzehnten sind auch die Karikaturen auf ein immer größeres Interesse der Forscher gestoßen, wobei einerseits Subgenres der Karikaturen (Erdbeben-Bilder, Masern-Bilder, Yokohama-Bilder, ken-Bilder) oder Karikaturen einzelner Künstler (Kuniyoshi, Kyōsai, Kiyochika) zusammenfassend darzustellen versucht wurden.

Das vom Fond zur Förderung der wissenschaftlichen Forschung (FWF) finanzierte Projekt versucht eine Datenbank aller Karikaturen auf kommerziellen Holzschnitten von 1842 bis 1905 zu erstellen.

This dictionary has three additional unique strengths: 1) Full integration with the extensive textual corpora on the site (see its listing in the Encyclopedia section below), featuring a wide range of examples drawn from the texts provided for each graph and many common compounds; 2) The dictionary search function accepts strings of characters, or one can simply use any of the texts on the site, and then provides basic lexical information (pronunciation, meanings, variant graphic forms and links to other dictionaries) for each graph in the order entered; and 3) The Advanced Search function “Text/concept search: Dictionary match” permits searches limited by specific gloss of many graphs, as generated from the English translations.

Searches can be performed in simplified or traditional Chinese, including many variant forms; the ability to parse whole texts and use the individual graphs as dictionary input is a powerful feature.

Unihan

Information

Unicode, Inc. © 1991–2013

The Unihan Database is the result of the effort to create one unified character set for all Chinese, Japanese, and Korean graphs; it currently supports tens of thousands of unique graphs, and is now the standard character set for most systems. The website features grid display and two search functions: radical and stroke count, or text search for English gloss or pronunciation in Mandarin pinyin, Cantonese jyutping, Stimson’s Tang pronunciation from T’ang Poetic Vocabulary, Korean hangul, Japanese on, or Japanese kun. On the webpage for each graph, full encoding data, stroke count, dictionary codes, and direct links to the online MDBG, CantoDict, and WWWJDIC dictionaries are provided.

One should be aware that only a subset of all Chinese graphs have been included into the Unicode standard—thereby becoming searchable and independent of modalities such as writing style and format—and only a subset of this is represented in most Chinese fonts. For a more complete coverage it may be necessary to install the CJK Extensions, such as the PMingLiu-ExtB font package. (See also ctext.org: http://ctext.org/font-test-page.)

Entries and search functions are in traditional Chinese characters only. (c) http://dissertationreviews.org/archives/9213

Siku Quanshu: Online

中國四庫全書

Information

Auf der Höhe der Qing-Dynastie beauftragte Qianlong die Siku quanshu, wahrscheinlich um zu beweisen, dass die Mandschu die Yongle-Enzyklopädie (永樂大典) der Ming-Dynastie übertreffen könnten. Die Yongle Dadian von 1407 war die größte Enzyklopädie zu dieser Zeit.

Die Redaktion bestand aus 361 Wissenschaftlern, mit Ji Yun (紀昀) und Lu Xixiong (陸錫熊) als Chefredakteuren. Die Zusammenstellung begann 1773 und war 1782 beendet. Man sammelte und anerkannte über 10000 Handschriften aus der kaiserlichen Sammlung und anderen Bibliotheken. Etwa 3000 Schriften wurden vernichtet, da sie als Mandschu-feindlich eingestuft wurden. Letztendlich wurden 3461 Bücher für die Aufnahme in die Siku quanshu ausgewählt. Sie wurden in 36381 Bänden mit mehr als 79000 Kapiteln gebunden. Auf den ca. 2,3 Millionen Seiten finden sich etwa 800 Millionen chinesische Schriftzeichen.

Vier Exemplare für den Kaiser wurden in extra errichteten Bibliotheken in der Verbotenen Stadt, dem Alten Sommerpalast, Shenyang und der Wenjin Kammer in Chengde aufbewahrt. Drei weitere Kopien für die Öffentlichkeit wurden in Siku quanshu-Bibliotheken in Hangzhou, Zhenjiang und Yangzhou hinterlegt. Alle sieben Bibliotheken erhielten ebenfalls eine Kopie der kaiserlichen Enzyklopädie Gujin tushu jicheng von 1725.

Zwei Kopien der Siku quanshu wurden während des Taiping-Aufstandes vernichtet. Die Britische Armee verbrannte die verbleibende Kopie fast vollständig während des Zweiten Opiumkrieges. Die vier verbliebenen Ausgaben erlitten einige Schäden während des Zweiten Weltkrieges, doch die Kopie der Verbotenen Stadt (bekannt als Wenyuan ge 文淵閣) befindet sich gut erhalten im Nationalen Palastmuseum in Taipeh auf Taiwan. Während der 1980er Jahre wurde es lithografisch in 1500 Bänden nachgedruckt und ist derzeit auf CD-ROM und online verfügbar.

The Digital Etymological Dictionary of Old Chinese

古漢語詞源字典（網絡版）

Information

As the homepage states, “This site contains a range of new tools designed to facilitate extensive analyses of the phonology and phonological structures of early Chinese texts.” Two interfaces allow characters or entire texts to be cut-and-pasted into the Text Entry box, and then the graphs are parsed and phonetic data returned for each character from the following dictionaries: Qieyun 切韻 and Guangyun 廣韻 (including Baxter’s reconstructed pronunciations), Baxter-Sagart 2011 (Old Chinese and Middle Chinese reconstructions), and Schuessler’s ABC Etymological Dictionary of Old Chinese (OC, MC and Late Han reconstructions, including etymological notes on sister languages and dialect forms). A text file upload function is also available for longer texts, and a multi-level search function returns sets of graphs based on the search criteria.

There are English and traditional Chinese versions of the website; all entries must be in traditional Chinese. (c) http://dissertationreviews.org/archives/9213
