Index and Database on Chinese Writes

Ed./Corp.: Renditions, Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong.
URL: http://www.renditions.org/renditions/biography/
Language: English.

Self description: "The author index is linked to a database which contains
information [on] about 600 Chinese writers whose works have appeared in
Renditions publications. The translator index lists the works of individual
translators. Listings are in alphabetical order."

Description: Quite useful little database, containing biographical data as
well as a list of most important works, available English translations, and
studies and biographies on the authors. However, these lists are by no means
complete. Unfortunately no Chinese characters are given, only Hanyu Pinyin
transliterations.

Site contents: (1) Authors (Biography; Works; Works available in English;
Studies and Biographies); (2) Translators; (3) Search.
