Qian Xinbo’ s Reading Notes on Duan Yucai’ s Annotations to Shuowen Jiezi (读说文段注札记) on the one hand strives to preserve the original flavor of the momumental work of Shuowen Jiezi (说文解字) compiled by Xu Shen, a noted Han Dynasty scholar, and on the other hand seeks to rectify Duan Yucai’ s faulty annotations. Qian Xinbo’ s elaboration on the principles of annotation and collation regarding Shuowen Jiezi (说文解字) also provides room for scholarly thought. Due to the fact that Qian’ s work has not been preserved intact as of today, many scholars have failed to pay due attention to it, not to mention recognizing its academic significance.%《钱辛伯读说文段注札记》一文立足保存许书原貌,征引考索,订正《段注》之失,所论颇为精审。钱氏涉及《说文》校勘原则的论述,更能发人深省。由于钱书未存完帙,学者多不曾措意,致其价值淹没不显。
