一、使用方法

1. 本資料庫主要分「清代《楚辭》研究資料」(簡稱「資料檢索」)和「清代《楚辭》研究論著目錄」(簡稱「論著檢索」)兩大部分，使用者可按需要在各項下輸入關鍵字詞檢索。「資料檢索」之部分包含清代楚辭學著者姓名、生平事蹟、著者籍貫、著作、序跋和提要。本資料庫之設置除着重搜集和統計清人著作外，同時亦將著述者的生卒年、籍貫，以及著作的成書年代等資料以數位方法處理，用以呈現清代楚辭學的發展面貌。檢索者可輸入任何相關字詞，查詢後會顯示符合條件的結果。至於「研究論著目錄」則可從作者名稱、著作書名和篇名三方面檢索。

二、資料凡例

2.1 – 清代《楚辭》研究資料

1. 本資料庫主要收錄有清(1644-1912)一代的楚辭學資料，然而清初楚辭學上承自明代，若不論及明末清初的楚辭學著作，則無法突顯出清人繼承明以來的學術傳統。而部分楚辭學者生於清末，進入民國後仍沿用着清人的治學方法，實際上仍屬於清代楚辭學的延伸，是以本資料庫將按照楚辭學發展的自身變化，酌量收錄明末清初至民國初年的楚辭學著作。
2. 文本所涉及諱改文字，除缺筆者外，一律不作回改。為便於檢索，書中個別古今字、通假字、異體字、俗體字等一律逕改不出校。至於各文本之資料來源可參本資料庫之「參考書目」
3. 「著者」：列出清代研究《楚辭》的著者姓名，以及其生平事蹟簡介。
4. 「籍貫」：列出清代研究《楚辭》的著者籍貫，並以清代行省分門別類。清代行省在不同時期出現過分合，本計劃主要依據譚其驤主編之《中國歷史地圖集》(第八集)光緒時期(1875-1908)全圖，以其最能涵蓋整個清代楚辭學著者的地域分布。該圖總共收錄直隸、奉天、吉林、黑龍江、江蘇、安徽、山西、山東、河南、陝西、甘肅、浙江、江西、湖北、湖南、四川、福建、廣東、廣西、雲南、貴州、以及新疆二十二省。部分作者因生平不詳，其籍貫亦闕如，以「未詳」標示。
5. 「著作」：羅列本資料庫搜集之清代各種楚辭學著作，包含現存、未見或佚亡之書，其中未見或佚亡者均統一以「未詳」標示。本資料庫之收錄以楚辭學專書為主，部分雖非專書，但對清代楚辭學研究有重要價值者亦一併兼收。至於討論重點與楚辭學無關者，一般均省略。
6. 「序跋」：清代楚辭學著作中附錄不少序跋，這些序跋對於分析清代楚辭學的發展有重要意義。職此之故，本資料庫特別將所目見之各書序跋全文列出，並提供檢索功能，以供深入研究。
7. 「提要」：本資料庫所撰寫之提要主要針對現存楚辭學專書，提要內容主要參考學界研究成果，簡略介紹各著作內容，以見其學術價值。
8. 「備注」：將清代楚辭學著作見於各種楚辭學書目之頁碼列出，方便讀者檢索。這些書目包括饒宗頤《楚辭書錄》、洪湛侯《楚辭要籍解題》、姜亮夫《楚辭書目五種》、崔富章《楚辭書目五種續編》、潘嘯龍、毛慶主編《楚辭著作提要》、崔富章《楚辭書錄解題》，以及黃靈庚《楚辭文獻叢考》。

2.2 – 清代《楚辭》研究論著目錄

本資料庫主要收錄與清代楚辭學有關之研究論著，範圍涵蓋現代中國及東亞地區學者之研究成果，並以2024年為著錄下限。

1. 資料庫之著述分為專書、期刊論文、文集論文、會議論文和學位論文五類。
2. 各論著出處以所刊年代最早者著錄，如有重刊本則酌量於備注中說明。部分因年代刊行久遠或來源不明而未能查核者，則以後出之版本著錄。

I、How to Use

1. This database is divided into two major parts: the “Research Materials on the Chuci Studies in the Qing Dynasty” (hereinafter referred to as “Data Search”) and the “Bibliography of Chuci Studies in the Qing Dynasty” (referred to as ‘Bibliographic Search’). Users can search by inputting keywords in the respective sections as needed. The ‘Database Search’ section includes the names, biographical information and places of origin of the Chuci scholars, as well as the titles of their research, prefaces, postscripts and the critical abstracts. In addition to collecting and conducting quantitative analyses on the writings of Qing scholars, this database also processes the years of birth and death of these authors, their places of origin, and the publication dates of their works using digital methods, in order to present the development of Chuci studies in the Qing dynasty. Researchers can input any relevant keywords, and the results matching the criteria will be displayed. As for the “Bibliography of Chuci Studies in the Qing Dynasty” section, users can search by author name, book title, and article title.

II、Conventions

2.1 Database on the Studies of Chuci in the Qing Dynasty

1. This database primarily collects materials on Chuci studies from the Qing dynasty (1644-1912). However, the intellectual tradition of Chuci studies that early Qing scholars inherited originated in the late Ming dynasty. As such, in order to fully elucidate this lineage, it is necessary to consider the Chuci works from the late Ming to early Qing. Furthermore, some Chuci scholars born in the late Qing continued to use the scholarship methods of the Qing dynasty even after the advent of the Republican era, effectively extending the Qing Chuci Therefore, this database will incorporate Chuci works from the late Ming to early Republican eras in accordance with the inherent evolution of Chuci studies.
2. When an alternative character is used as a substitute of a taboo word, the database will input the alternative character without changing it back. And when a stroke is left out from the taboo word, the database would add the stroke back. To facilitate more effective search functionality, in cases when an ancient graph is used as a substitute of a modern character, or when variant graphs are used, the database will change the character to the more common form without adding supplementary notes.The source of each text included in the database can be found listed in the “Reference List.”
3. “Author”: This section lists the names of scholars who studied the Chuci during theQing dynasty, along with brief biographical introductions.
4. “Author’s Place ofOrigin”: This section lists the places of origins of Chuci scholars during the Qing dynasty, categorized by the provinces of the Qing dynasty. As the provincial boundaries underwent changes during the Qing, this project primarily references the administrative map of the Qing from Volume 8 of Zhongguo lishi ditu ji (the Historical Atlas of China) edited by Tan Qixiang, as it best covers the geographic distribution of Chuci scholars throughout the dynasty. The map includes the 22 provinces: Zhili, Fengtian, Jilin, Heilongjiang, Jiangsu, Anhui, Shanxi, Shandong, Henan, Shaanxi, Gansu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou, and Xinjiang. For authors whose biographical details are unclear, their place of origins is marked as “unknown.”
5. “Title”: This lists the various Chucischolarly works collected in this database, including those that are extant, yet to be seen, or lost. Unseen or lost works are uniformly marked as “unknown.” The focus of this database is on Chuci monographs, but it also includes some works that are not monographs but are of significant value to Qing dynasty Chuci Works that do not primarily focus on Chuci studies are generally omitted.
6. “Preface and Postscript”: Many scholarly works on Chuciin the Qing dynasty included prefaces and postscripts, which are of great importance for analyzing the development of Qing Chuci Therefore, this database specifically lists the full texts of all prefaces and postscripts that have been identified, and provides search functionality to facilitate in-depth research.
7. “Abstract”: This project has composed a series of critical abstracts which focus primarily on extant Chuci Drawing on recent research findings, these abstracts provide concise introductions to the content of each work and explain their intellectual value.
8. “Remarks”: To facilitate users’ research, this section lists the page numbers where the Qing dynasty Chucischolarly works appear in various Chuci These bibliographies include Jao Tsung-I’s Chuci shulu [Catalog of Books on Chuci], Hong Zhanhou’s Chuci yaoji jieti [An Annotated Record of Important Works on Chuci], Jiang Liangfu’s Chuci shumu wuzhong [Five Catalogs of Works on Chuci], Cui Fuzhang’s Chuci shulu wuzhong xubian [Continuation of Five Catalogs of Works on Chuci], Chuci zhuzuo tiyao [Annotated Catalog of Chuci Works] edited by Pan Xiaolong and Mao Qing, Cui Fuzhang’s Chuci shulu jieti [Record of Works on Chuci with Explanations], and Huang Linggeng’s Chuci wenxian congkao [Comprehensive Study of Chuci Texts].

2.2 Catalog of Qing Dynasty Chuci Research Works

This database primarily collects research works related to Qing dynasty Chuci studies, covering the research achievements of scholars in modern China and East Asia. It includes works published before 2024.

1. The works in the database are divided into five categories: monographs, journal articles, book chapters, conference papers, and theses/dissertations.
2. Each work is recorded based on the earliest publication date. If there are reprinted versions, an explanation may be provided in the remarks section. For some works where the publication date or source is unclear, the later version will be recorded.
