Abstract

This collection offers in compact form the Bo’an xinbian, Bo’an xubian, and Qiushen shihuan bijiao hui’an (qq.vv.). Liu Ruifen (who signs as Jiangxi Provincial Judge) says in the preface that putting the three works together was his own project, but he was preempted by a certain Zhu Meichen 朱梅臣, from Shanyin 山陰, who then requested a preface from him. In the 1884 ed. the Bo’an xinbian has no mulu, contrary to the xubian.
