Background

There are about 400 kinds of books cited in Taiping Guangji, and ** is generally indicated at the end of each article, but occasionally there are some errors, resulting in the same book with different names or different books with the same name, so it is impossible to make accurate statistics according to it. There is a bibliography of early quotations in front of the book, a total of 343 kinds, but it does not match the actual number of citations in the book, probably added by people after the Song Dynasty.

The Taiping Guangji is classified and compiled, divided into 92 categories according to the theme, and more than 150 sub-categories below, such as cattle and beasts, which are divided into cattle, horses, camels, donkeys, dogs, sheep, pigs, and other details, which are more convenient to check. In terms of content, the most collected is the story, which can actually be said to be a collection of stories before the Song Dynasty. Many of these books have been lost, and only their last words can be seen in this book.

Many stories of the Tang Dynasty and before the Tang Dynasty have been preserved by relying on the Taiping Guangji.
