Yīzōng jīnjiàn — Dìngzhèng Zhòngjǐng quánshū Shānghán lùn zhù 醫宗金鑑·訂正仲景全書傷寒論註
Golden Mirror of Medicine — Corrected Complete Works of Zhòngjǐng: Commentary on the Treatise on Cold Damage by 吳謙 (Wú Qiān, zì Liùjí 六吉, fl. early Qiánlóng, 清) — chief editor; co-editor 劉裕鐸 Liú Yùduó; with the official Qiánlóng medical-college editorial committee
About the work
The Shānghán lùn component of the great imperial Qīng medical encyclopedia, the Yùzuǎn Yīzōng jīnjiàn 御纂醫宗金鑑 (compiled 1740–1742, presented 1749, in 90 juan total). This component — 17 juan in extent — presents the Sòng-recension Shānghán lùn with a comprehensive imperial-commission commentary harmonizing the major Qīng commentary traditions (成無己 Chéng Wúyǐ, 方有執 Fāng Yǒuzhí, 喻昌 Yú Chāng, 柯琴 Kē Qín, 張璐 Zhāng Lù, etc.). The work is the official medical-curriculum text of the Qīng imperial medical academy 太醫院 from 1749 onward.
Abstract
The composition window of 1742–1749 reflects the imperial commission and final presentation to the throne. 吳謙 Wú Qiān, Qīng-period Tàiyīyuàn yuànpàn 太醫院院判 (Director of the Imperial Medical Academy), served as chief editor under imperial commission, with 劉裕鐸 Liú Yùduó as principal co-editor. The work’s distinguishing methodology is the systematic comparison of competing commentary lines and the production of an official harmonization — a feature typical of mid-Qīng imperial editorial enterprises. The work is divided into “corrected” 訂正 portions (with rectified canonical text and authoritative commentary) and “supplementary” 補 portions (extended clinical applications). The parallel Jīnguì yàoluè component is KR3ef086; the broader Yīzōng jīnjiàn is at KR3e0090 / similar.
The Shānghán lùn zhù section of the Yīzōng jīnjiàn is the most widely-circulated Shānghán commentary in modern Chinese-medicine pedagogy, surpassed in citation only by the canonical Shānghán lùn itself.
