Shānghán lùn Liú shì zhuàn 傷寒論劉氏傳
The Liú Family Transmission of the Treatise on Cold Damage by 劉棟田良 (Liú Dòng Tiánliáng — catalog form, Japanese reading uncertain, fl. late Edo, 江戶)
About the work
A bibliographically obscure short Shānghán monograph attributed in the Kanripo catalog to 劉棟田良 Liú Dòng Tiánliáng. The catalog form of the name strongly suggests a sinicized Edo kanpō physician’s pseudonym rather than a Chinese author; the dynasty assignment in the catalog (清) probably reflects approximate chronological contemporaneity with mid-Qīng China rather than authentic Chinese provenance. The title “Liúshì zhuàn” 劉氏傳 (“Transmission of the Liú Family”) could indicate that the work represents Liú-school Shānghán clinical tradition, or that “Liú” is a sinicized surname.
Abstract
The Kanripo source file is essentially empty (header only) — body content has not been digitized into the jicheng.tw base edition Kanripo carries. The work is not bibliographically attested in standard reference works on Edo kanpō literature in the catalog form given (劉棟田良). Without the text in hand, no substantive analysis of the work’s doctrinal positions, structure, or relationship to other Shānghán literature can be offered.
The composition window 1750–1900 brackets the late-Edo to early-Meiji kanpō productive period plausibly compatible with the name’s form. This entry should be treated as a provisional stub pending recovery of the actual text.
Translations and research

Other points of interest
The Kanripo source file is essentially empty — body content was not digitized into the jicheng.tw base edition. The attribution requires textual verification. Researchers needing the actual text should consult specialist kanpō archival collections (e.g., the Naitō Memorial Pharmacy Museum 内藤記念くすり博物館 archives or the Igaku-kan 醫學館 manuscripts at the Naikaku Bunko 内閣文庫).
