| Research Abstract |
In this study, I picked up some encyclopedias and dictionaries published in ancient China, especially in Yuan/Ming period, researched the details and relationships of these dictionaries, tried to find out an answer to the problems concerning cultural history of ancient China. Through this research, I discovered these dictionaries, directly or indirectly, inherited the contents of earlier publications appeared in Jin or Nan-Song period, but in many cases, phonological features were different from earlier materials, changed into the types considered an orthodoxy in each period. Japanese Scholars in Edo period often used these Yuan/Ming type dictionaries in their works, and it's so precious thing that we can see the quoted contents of lost materials in the dictionaries compiled by these Edo scholars.
