Biographies of Sung figures will be found in historical
encyclopedias listed in Section IV. There is one biographical
dictionary for the Sung period:

Sung Biographies.
Herbert Franke, ed.

Vols. 1-3 contain 406 biographies, prepared by various
scholars; Vol. 4 contains 35 biographies of painters. There is no
index; there is a table of contents. Biographies are in
alphabetical order.

Various Sung-period biographical collections, later sources
with biographies of Sung figures, and various forms of
biographical information found in Sung literary collections are
indexed by the following work, the most comprehensive and
detailed index to documents with biographical information.
Entries include brief accounts of the individual's career and
reputation.

The Sung-jen chuan-chi tzu-liao so-yin is arranged by
stroke count. Volume 6 indexes the entire work according to
tzu 字 names, hao 號 names, posthumous names, etc. It
is particularly valuable for its references to the various
"records," "prefaces," documents of appointment, and so on, in
literary collections. However, neither letters nor poems, for
example, are indexed.
Of great importance is the three-volume "Supplement" to the
Sung-jen chuan-chi tzu-liao so-yin, prepared in
conjunction with the Ch'üan Sung wen project:

This draws on material not included in the Taiwan index,
including recently discovered tomb inscriptions and museum
collections. There are more than 14,000 new name entries and
supplements to over 6,000 established entries. The arrangement
of the contents is similar to that in the Taiwan index. There is
an index to secondary names.
The above works supersede:

which gives, on a single line, name, tzu, native place,
the title of the Sung-period biographical document (usually a
funerary inscription), its location, and three generations in the
patriline (this last is not found in the larger index). Note
further that the Sung-jen chuan-chi tzu-liao so-yin
indexes biographies in Sung and Yuan local gazetteers, as does
the

but does not index Ming- and Ch'ing-period gazetteers, many of
which include information from lost Sung-period works. The
Ssu-ch'uan ta-hsueh index does do this. Missing from the
Sung-jen index also are references to funerary
biographical inscriptions for monks that exist only in
texts found in the Buddhist canon. These are included in the
comprehensive list of biographical inscriptions in:

Finally, a great deal of biographical information can be
garnered from the personal-name indexes listed in Section VI
below.
For bibliographical information on tomb inscriptions, see

Shike shiliao xinbianin III.C. In addition note the listing
