An Introduction to the sources of Ming history
An Introduction to the Sources of Ming History by Wolfgang Franke is a foundational scholarly guide to primary sources essential for studying the Ming dynasty (1368–1644). The book surveys major historical texts, official records, private writings, archival materials, and bibliographic tools relevant to Ming historiography. Franke provides detailed evaluations of the reliability, structure, and historical significance of each source category, offering researchers practical insight into how Ming history has been documented and how the available sources should be interpreted. As one of the earliest comprehensive English-language studies on Ming documentary materials, this work remains an indispensable reference for historians, sinologists, and students of Chinese history.
