Description
Classical Historiography for Chinese History (中國經典文獻工具書錄) is a research guide compiled by Benjamin A. Elman, Professor of East Asian Studies and History at Princeton University, with contributions from collaborators at Fudan University, Academia Sinica, the University of Houston, and Princeton University. Originally developed from bibliography courses at the University of Pennsylvania (1975–1977), the guide provides annotated references to classical Chinese historiographical sources and sinological reference works. All entries are alphabetized within each section and romanized in Pinyin following Library of Congress guidelines. The entire site is searchable. The guide is hosted in Princeton University Library's LibGuides East Asian Studies Portal and was last revised in October 2022.
