SGZ Biography Index & Translation Links

[Korin]

Work has to be done still, there's a lot of officers that don't have translation yet that deserve them.

Hans H. Frankel's Catalogue of Translations from the Chinese Dynastic Histories for the Period 220-960 features a list of translated passages from both Records of the Three Kingdoms and Book of Jin. Most of the SGZ ones, however, are from Achilles Fang's Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms.

I'm familiar with him. He also wrote an article on Cai Yan which is really worth checking out.

I'm going to go get myself a copy of Doctors, Diviners, etc. as soon as I can. I actually had never heard of it before.

Translations of the biographies of Liu Yan, Liu Zhang and Liu Bei can be found here:

https://www.academia.edu/5318625/Sanguo ... of_Liu_Bei

Translated by Robert J. Cutter and William G. Crowell (from Empresses and Consorts). They say it was prepared as part of a project to translate Chen Shou’s Sanguo zhi and Pei Songzhi’s commentary, but that project had to be discontinued.

Thanks. I have added links to those. There is another translated chapter of SGZ by the same uploader. (https://www.academia.edu/5318635/Sanguo ... _and_Lu_Yi)

Is this Bill Crowell a relative to William G. Crowell?

[plunged]

I think Bill = William?

William is his given name and Bill is his usual name?

Like people who are called Andrew always go by Andy. And Bill is a common nick for Will(iam).

[TigerTally]

Just want to make sure. I thought you contacted him.

Too bad the project was cancelled.

[plunged]

hehe nah I didn't.

But too bad indeed Would like to see SGZ in English with some nice footnotes.

Why don't you do it then?

Dong Zhuo posted the link ages ago in KOEI Warriors Forum.

His biography is in Book of Jin rather than SGZ
