Jīnguì yào lüè qiǎn zhù bǔ zhèng 金匱要略淺註補正
Supplemented and Corrected Accessible Annotation of the Jīnguì yào lüè canonical text by 張機 (Zhāng Jī / Zhòngjǐng), accessible annotation by 陳念祖 (Chén Niànzǔ / Chén Xiūyuán), supplements and corrections by 唐宗海 (Táng Zōnghǎi / Táng Róngchuān 唐容川, 1847–1897), recollated by 秦伯未 (Qín Bówèi, 1901–1970)
About the work
A nine-juan late-Qīng compound edition of the Jīnguì yào lüè incorporating four editorial layers: (1) the Hàn canonical text attributed to 張機 Zhāng Zhòngjǐng; (2) the late-Qiánlóng / early-Jiāqìng accessible annotation by 陳念祖 Chén Niànzǔ (originally KR3ef090 Jīnguì yào lüè qiǎn zhù); (3) the late-Qīng supplementary annotations of 唐宗海 Táng Zōnghǎi (Táng Róngchuān 唐容川, 1847–1897) — Sìchuān physician and founder of the Zhōng–Xī huìtōng pài 中西匯通派 (Chinese-Western Medical Synthesis School) — incorporating Western anatomical and physiological knowledge; and (4) the early-Republican Shanghai recollation by 秦伯未 Qín Bówèi (1901–1970).
Abstract
The Kanripo source file is essentially empty (header only) — body content has not been digitized into the jicheng.tw edition. The work is bibliographically attested as one of the principal late-Qīng Jīnguì commentaries. Composition window 1884–1893 is bracketed by Táng Zōnghǎi’s late-Qīng Shanghai productive period (his Xuě zhèng lùn 血證論 is 1884, his ZhōngXī huìtōng wǔ zhǒng 中西匯通五種 collected 1893). The Qiǎn zhù bǔ zhèng belongs to the same five-work series as Táng’s Shānghán lùn qiǎn zhù bǔ zhèng — both supplementing and “correcting” (bǔ zhèng 補正) Chén Xiūyuán’s accessible annotations of the Zhāng Zhòngjǐng canon with Táng’s distinctive Chinese-Western synthesis perspective.
The work is one of the principal late-Qīng documents of the Zhōng–Xī huìtōng movement and represents the earliest sustained attempt to integrate Western anatomical knowledge into a classical Chinese-medicine commentary on the Jīnguì canon. Táng’s editorial method is characterized by parallel discussion of canonical zàngfǔ 臟腑 (viscera) terminology and Western anatomical organ-systems, with detailed treatment of points where the two systems converge or diverge.

Other points of interest
The Kanripo source file is essentially empty — body content was not digitized into the jicheng.tw base edition. Researchers needing the actual text should consult modern reprintings.
The four-layer editorial structure (Hàn canonical + Qīng accessible annotation + late-Qīng bǔ zhèng + Republican recollation) is a useful test case for the diachronic transmission of canonical medical texts through successive editorial layers — each layer addressing the perceived gaps in the prior layer rather than supplanting it.
