In den WarenkorbTranslation by Ilza Veith. The Huangdi Neijing (given the title The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Medicine in one of the latest translations) is an ancient treatise on health and disease said to have been written by the famous Chinese emperor Huangdi around 2600 BC. However, Huangdi is a semi-mythical figure, and the book probably… dates from later, around 300 BC and may be a compilation of the writings of several authors. Whatever its origin, the book has proved influential as a reference work for practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine well into the modern era. The book takes the form of a discussion between Huangdi and his physician in which Huangdi inquires about the nature of health, disease, and treatment.[National Library of Medicine] l Pelanduk Publ. Petaling Jaya 1992. Pb. 260 pp. Traces of use.

It is woodblock printed by hand on hand-made Chinese mulberry paper. The image is 24.5 x 58.5 cm., mounted as a scroll, with silk brocade mountings, beautifully executed. . * The work illustrates the most important acupuncture and acupressure "Qi" ["points"], eight veins in 12 channels. . The diagram shows a man and the locations of each of these "meridians" and pulses, and their associated exact "Qi" places to insert the needle for maximum effect. Each of these "Qi" have been hand written using red ink. . The work illustrates a Chinese man with an the Yellow Emperor's Imperial Chinese seal above his head in red cinnabar. By placing the Emperor's Yin Zhang [seal] at the top of this diagram as something coming from the Yellow Emperor. . It reads: "FROM THE YELLOW EMPEROR'S [Huang-DI] ANCESTRAL HALL, DIAGRAM OF ACUPUNCTURE MERIDIANS." . Per Ecke [Volumes I & II]: "Each of the meridians has a Chinese medical term. There are punctures where the needle may be pushed in. On the right, eight large words [Hanzi] read: 'Twelve Classica of Marvel Canon, On the Eight Channels ((of interior) Pulses.' . Per the above, the title woodblock printed in red at the far right reads in Pinyin: SHI ER JIN CHI JIN BAI MAI T'U: TWELVE CLASSICA OF MARVEL CANNON, ON THE EIGHT CHANNELS [of inferior] PULSES." . Zhenjiu Xuewei [acupuncture "Qi" energy points] are indicated in red, while copious other "Qi" or "points" are indicated by black dots where the acupuncture needle should be inserted for maximum therapeutic benefit. . *** PROVENANCE: The work was acquired by us directly from Prof. Richard C. Rudolph [1909-2003] the late, great author, professor and scholar of Chinese studies at the University of California, Los Angeles. . His typical red cinnabar Yin Zhang [chop/seal] is found at the lower right corner, above which is another unidentified collector's seal. For a photo of his chop, please see photograph illus04.jpg posted to our website. . At the left margin are two other Yin Zhang which are identical to those illustrated in Ecke, see below. . *** THE SAME EXAMPLE IS ILLUSTRATED IN ECKE, Vols. 1 & 2: . As per Ecke, this work was mounted as a hanging scroll, the bindings are a green brocade silk of a high quality, reminiscent of the Japanese style. . Per Prof. Rudolph he collected this in Chengdu during his 1948-49 book collecting trip throughout China, buying books for the University of California. Google him for copious details. . *** CONDITION: The woodblock print has been expertly preserved in the scroll binding. As usual the scroll is backed with hand-made Washi type mulberry paper, green silk front bindings, with a think gold brocade cloth strip at the top and bottom, in the Japanese style of scroll mounting. . The upper portion of the green silk has a bit of fading, but this does not detract from the overall impression of the mounting. The print is flawless, in stunning and excellent "collector's condition." . Please review the photographs posted to our website. . *** SCROLL MOUNTED SIZE: The mounting: 35.7 x 1 meter 13 cm. [113cm.] Print sheet: 25.5 x 57.8 cm. The above dimensions differ from the exhibited un-mounted example. . *** PROVENANCE: Richard C. RUDOLPH [1909-2003]: He was an American professor o.
