Illustrated Compendium of Materia Medica (Vol. 6)
植物名實圖考(六)
First Complete Translation
Only partial translations or excerpts exist. This is the first complete English translation.
The 'Zhiwu Mingshi Tukao' (1848) is a massive 38-volume botanical encyclopedia. While scholarly searches in Google Books and Open Library confirm its status as a foundational text frequently cited and excerpted in botanical history (e.g., by Nicholas Menzies and Fa-ti Fan), no record of a complete, cover-to-cover English translation exists for the entire work or for Volume 6 specifically. Existing English material consists of partial translations and botanical identifications found in 19th-century scholarly papers and modern academic surveys.
