Chinese Text Project

• Look up a Chinese characterGet one Chinese character's pronunciations (Mandarin pinyin, zhuyin, Cantonese and the reconstructed Tang-era reading), its radical and stroke counts, and its other forms, such as the simplified or traditional version.
• Find texts by titleFind books in the library whose title contains some Chinese characters, traditional or simplified. Titles are only in Chinese, so search for 論語 rather than Analects.
• List the classic textsList the library's curated classics, such as the Analects, the Mencius, the Dao De Jing and the Art of War, with each one's text ID for later steps.
• Get details of a textGet what the library knows about a book or one of its chapters: its title, author, dynasty, when it was written, the edition it follows, and a link to read it on ctext.org.
• Get a link to a textGet the ctext.org page for a book or chapter to share or open, in English or Chinese, optionally with a word or phrase highlighted wherever it appears.
• Identify a ctext.org linkFind out which book or chapter a ctext.org page shows, and get its title and text ID to use in later steps.
• List Chinese dynastiesList the dynasties and periods of Chinese history with their dates, from the Western Zhou to the Republican era, or just the ones in power in a given year.
• Get library statisticsGet the library's running totals: characters of classical text, texts and chapters in its Wiki, scanned pages, parallel passages and more.
• Search the dictionaryFind words, people and places in the library's dictionary of classical Chinese by the characters they are written with, such as every person whose name contains 孔.
