水经注[View] [Edit] [History]ctext:440195
The work is much expanded from its source text, the older (and now lost) Water Classic (Shuijing 水经). The original text described 137 different rivers in China and was traditionally credited to Eastern Han scholar and geographer Sang Qin (桑钦) during the Three Kingdoms Period (220-280 AD). Qing dynasty scholars gave it a later date (during the Three Kingdoms Period) because of the names of the counties and commanderies. Its authorship was then attributed to Jin dynasty scholar Guo Pu. Li Daoyuan's 40-volume, 300,000-character version includes 1252 rivers.
Although very thorough for its time, it did repeat the earlier mistake of the "Tribute of Yu" in viewing the Min as the headwaters of the Yangtze. It was not until the Ming dynasty that Xu Xiake correctly listed the Jinsha as the principal source.
《水经注》因注《水经》而得名,《水经》一书约一万馀字,《唐六典·注》说其「引天下之水,百三十七」。《水经注》看似为《水经》之注,实则以《水经》为纲,详细记载了一千多条大小河流及有关的历史遗迹、人物掌故、神话传说等,是中国古代最全面、最系统的综合性地理著作。该书还记录了不少碑刻墨迹和渔歌民谣,文笔绚烂,语言清丽,具有较高的文学价值。由于书中所引用的大量文献中很多在后世散失了,所以保存了许多资料。
