Liǔ Hédōng jí zhù 柳河東集注
Annotated Liǔ Hé-dōng Collection by 柳宗元 (撰), 童宗說 (註釋), 張敦頤 (音辨), 潘緯 (音義)
About the work
Liǔ Hédōng jí zhù 柳河東集注 in 43 juǎn — also widely transmitted as Zēngguǎng zhùshì yīnbiàn Táng Liǔ xiānshēng jí 增廣註釋音辯唐柳先生集 (the SBCK title) — is the second of the two principal Sòng commentary editions of Liǔ Zōngyuán 柳宗元 (alongside Hán Chún’s 韓醇 Gǔxùn Liǔ xiānshēng wénjí = KR4c0048). Three Sòng commentators contribute: Tóng Zōngshuō 童宗說 (zhùshì 註釋, the principal running commentary), Zhāng Dūnyí 張敦頤 (yīnbiàn 音辨, phonetic analysis), and Pān Wěi 潘緯 (yīnyì 音義, phonetic glosses and meaning). The collaboration model — three named annotators each contributing a distinct layer of textual apparatus — is characteristic of the late-Sòng jízhù style.
The SBCK file opens with a Liǔ wén yīnyì xù 柳文音義序 written by the editor of the Qiánshān jùnzhāi 灊山郡齋 (the Sòng prefectural-school printing operation that produced this edition), explaining the commissioning of Pān Wěi’s Liǔshì shìyīn 柳氏釋音 several months prior, and the scholar’s discomfort with the small-print original.
Tiyao
No tíyào in source. The KR4c0049 file is the SBCK base, which preserves the Sòng Liǔ wén yīnyì xù but no Sìkù tíyào. The Sìkù WYG 43-juǎn tíyào (V1076.2) survives in the Zinbun digital Sìkù tíyào.
Abstract
This is the second principal Sòng commentary tradition for Liǔ Zōngyuán, parallel to Hán Chún’s KR4c0048. Where Hán Chún’s commentary is principally philological (gǔxùn and yīnshì), the TóngZhāngPān edition is more substantive: Tóng Zōngshuō supplies running prose interpretation; Zhāng Dūnyí supplies phonetic analysis; Pān Wěi supplies phonetic-and-meaning glosses. Together the three layers produce a more reading-friendly text than Hán Chún’s gloss-only edition.
The 43-juǎn form is one juǎn less than Hán Chún’s 45-juǎn; the discrepancy reflects different editorial decisions about jíwài matter and the placement of the Liú Yǔxī xù.
The three annotators:
- Tóng Zōngshuō 童宗說 (Sòng; CBDB has cbdbId 697378 with no fixed dates) — a Sòng scholar of unclear background; the Sìkù tíyào does not give detailed biographical material.
- Zhāng Dūnyí 張敦頤 (Sòng) — see existing person note 張敦頤; jìnshì of Shàoxìng 24 (1154); a literary-philological scholar of the Sòng Lóngxìng / Qiándào period.
- Pān Wěi 潘緯 (Sòng) — zì unknown, fl. ca. 1180–1190 (CBDB cbdbId 97736 records fl. 1181–1182). His Liǔshì shìyīn was commissioned by the Qiánshān jùnzhāi.

Other points of interest
The collaborative editorial model — three named annotators each working on a distinct layer — is one of the more interesting late-Sòng experiments in commentarial division of labor; it parallels the Hán Yù Wǔbǎijiā zhù tradition’s jízhù anthologization but in a tighter three-way collaboration form.
