Chinese Text Project
Chinese Text Project is an open-access digital library of pre-modern Chinese texts, covering the classical canon and later works. Callers can retrieve the text of a chapter or passage by its URN, list the texts and sub-sections within a work, search the corpus for a phrase, look up a Chinese character's dictionary entry, and fetch parallel-passage matches between texts. No credentials required.
