| Abstract |
This paper is the outcome of Academic Research Project 2001 funded by National Science Council(NSC). The project is entitled “Official Archives of Chiao Hsun’s Manuscripts in Taiwan”. A lot of aooicial libraried in Mainland China have also collected Chiao Hsun’s manuscripts, which are subject to Class I or II cultural products under governmental protection. When I undertook this project, I had tried to refer to those manuscripts archived in China. However, the application procedure for looking up and copying is time-consuming and costly. Owing to the limited jund, I was unable to include those manuscripts archived in China into my project. In order to keep the research to be comprehensive, I have listed those libraries that collect Chial Hsun’s any manuscripts and literary works(including comments and transcriptions) both in China and Taiwan. I also compile a catalogue, outlining the research status and the existing versions about Chiao Hsun’s literary works and related articles. I classify the catalogue based on the libraries located in Taiwan and China, and organize his works by series, classics, history, philosophy and literary. If there are different versions for the same manuscript, I also make notes. Chiao Hsun had devoted a lifetime study and he had completed plenty works. Most of his manuscripts had never been published. The catalogue contains a lot of useful information for readers to compare and make reference. Accordingly, one can appreciate his literary achievement and the paragon as a diligent scholar.
