Stab-stitched book, 13 juan in 2 volumes, 147 leaves; text in Traditional Chinese; printed paper wrappers; light soiling to wrappers and bumping to corners, near fine. The Fangyan, compiled by Yang Xiong in the Han Dynasty around the first century BCE, was "the first dialect dictionary in the history of Chinese lexicography and is thought to be the first of its kind in the history of world lexicography." (Yong and Peng, Chinese lexicography). It served as an important source for the reconstruction of the Chinese topolects spoken at the time. This edition is after the annotated edition by the scholar Guo Pu, who was the first to annotate the Fangyan in the 4th century CE. It has further commentary by Ding Weifen, a founding father of the Koumintang. This is monograph 5 in the Gu Ya Tang series.
