YUANHAI ZIPING / COLLECTION 3
Collection Three: editions and comparisons across texts
Compare the 1634 witness with identified later witnesses, tracing text and old notes, unresolved glyphs and lookups, shared poems in context, and the roles of yongshen.
Local comparisons use the 1634 witness and separately identified later witnesses. A catalogued year does not mean that an imprint has been independently inspected. Ancient excerpts, editorial punctuation and our analysis stay distinct; institutional source scans are not republished here, and selected readings do not amount to full-book collation.
- READING 01
How to judge the main text and its old note separately
Compare the Jishan pian in the 1634 Shanchengtang and 1926 Qin Shen'an witnesses, separating the large-text requirements, the monthly conditions in small type and our interpretation.
- READING 02
How a different character can change a lookup mapping
Compare local glyphs in the Tianyi Noble Person verse with a 1926 witness, separating transcription, display normalization, witness readings and proposed emendations from the resulting lookup.
- READING 03
How Yuanhai and Sanming tonghui include the same poem
Align a continuous Xiji pian passage, its actual headings and annotation layers in two witnesses, retaining each collection's context even where the wording corresponds.
- READING 04
Can yongshen in Yuanhai and Ziping zhenquan be exchanged directly?
Compare Jishan pian's protection requirement with the monthly definition and assisting factors in Ziping zhenquan, preserving each passage's role rather than reducing all uses to a lucky element.
