Description
Electronic database published by Digital Heritage Publishing Ltd. (Hong Kong) in association with the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Contains the complete contents in full text and image of the 3,460+ titles of the Wenyuange edition of the Siku quanshu (1782), totaling over 800 million characters arranged under almost 2 million piece titles. Titles include large compilations such as the Quan Tang shi, Zi zhi tong jian, Wen xuan, Pei wen yun fu, Tai ping yu lan, and the 25 Histories. Note that the Siku quanshu editions are not always the best available or complete, as the compilation involved censorship. Features include linked dictionaries and the ability to save notebooks. The Siku quanshu is also available via the Diaolong database collection.
