The Lidai shiwenji zongku 歷代詩文集總庫 (previously known as Lidai bieji ku 歷代別集庫) consists of the collected poetry writings of individuals. Currently Princeton users have access to 8,000 titles of the full range of pre-Ming, Ming, and Qing authors. As all Airusheng/Erudition databases, the texts have been carefully digitized and checked for optimal full-text searching. Please select “ancient classics” from the first landing page, then choose 歷代詩文集總庫 you will see «Ming qian», «Ming», «Qing shang», and «Qing xia» highlighted.
The trial includes the newly published 總集編 that gives access to 1,000 anthologies of a broader scope.
Access is available via https://libguides.princeton.edu/az/lidai-biejiku-ming-qian-ming
Trial access to the 總集編 part until March 28, 2025
