Title
CJKV-English Dictionary of Confucian, Daoist, and intellectual historical terms edited by Charles Muller
Summary
The Chinese-Japanese-Korean-Vietnamese/English Dictionary [CJKV-E] is a compilation of Chinese ideographs, as well as ideograph-comprised compound words, text names, person names, etc., found primarily in the Confucian and Daoist classics. The compilation originally started out as a single work initiated by Charles Muller in 1986, and separated in late 90's as the Digital Dictionary of Buddhism [DDB] and Chinese-Japanese-Korean-Vietnamese/English Dictionary [CJKV-E]. As distinguished from the numerous computer-aggregated East Asian language dictionaries proliferating on the Web, each of the entries in this CJKV-E dictionary is human-edited, and usually contains far more detailed information than any other comparable lexicon, being developed while consulting a wide range of authoritative Chinese, Korean, and Japanese sources, and usually through the direct reading of primary classical texts
