曼彻斯特大学约翰·瑞兰德图书馆所藏汉籍概述

The Chinese books in the John Rylands library of Manchester University

英国曼彻斯特大学约翰·瑞兰德图书馆所藏汉籍有六百多种,其经三代藏主相继收藏之后最终于1901年归入该馆。这批古籍在品种上四部具备,但经部和子部书籍相对丰富。从版本上看,多为万历以后刊本,其中不乏稀见书籍和版本,可补国内馆藏之不足,故值得学者进一步研究。

The Chinese books account for over 600 types in the John Rylands library of Manchester University owing to a collection by three generations of owners until 1901.The books cover classic Confucian works,history,pre-Qin works and poetry,largely published after 1620.Many of the works are rare,making a rich complement with the domestic library resources.
