Gù Sìlì 顧嗣立 (1665–1722, zì Xiájūn 俠君, hào Lǘqiū xiānshēng 閭丘先生), of Chángzhōu 長洲 (Sūzhōu prefecture), son of Gù Yǔxián 顧予咸 顧予咸. Kāngxī rénchén (1712) jìnshì; shùjíshì turned zhōngshū shèrén (Drafter of the Imperial Secretariat). One of the leading literary scholars of the late-Kāngxī / early-Yōngzhèng period.
Gù Sìlì’s signature project was the Yuán shī xuǎn 元詩選 — a 100-juǎn anthology of Yuán-period verse, with critical-biographical xiǎozhuàn for each included poet — issued in three series (chūjí, èrjí, sānjí) between Kāngxī 33 (1694) and Kāngxī 59 (1720). The compilation is the foundational source for Yuán shī studies and remains the single most-consulted Yuán-period anthology.
Gù’s early career project was the re-editing of his father’s supplement to Zēng Yì’s 曾益 commentary on Wēn Tíngyún 溫庭筠, producing the present 9-juǎn Wēn Fēiqīng shī jí jiānzhù (= KR4c0078). His re-editing notes are signed àn 案. His textual restoration of the 7-juǎn Sòng-print structure (against Zēng’s late-Míng 4-juǎn Bāchā jí corruption) and his corrections of Zēng’s misreadings are among his early scholarly accomplishments.
CBDB has no matching entry; the Sìlì career is well-documented in the Chángzhōu xiànzhì, Sūzhōu fǔzhì, and the Qīng shǐ lièzhuàn.
