Extant handbooks

This 1991 book https://books.google.ca/books?id=XyChBwAAQBAJ&pg=PA2 has a list of titles which I'm interested in knowing if there are English translations for. Presumably since they are all very old, the original source would be public domain, though I'm not sure how it would work with recent translations.

Han dynasty:

• Su Nu Chang ie Canon of the Immaculate Girl
• Su Nu Fang ie Prescriptions of the Immaculate Girl

pre-Sui dynasty (before 581 AD, perhaps the 300s)

• Yu Fang Chih Yao ie Important Matters of the Jade Chamber
• Yu Fang Pi Chueh ie Secret Instructions Concerning the Jade Chamber

pre-Tang dynasty (before 618 AD, possibly 400s)

• Tung Hsuan Tzu ie Book of the Mystery-Penetrating Master

800s:

• Ta Lo Fu ie Poetical Essay on the Supreme Joy

If we cannot find the actual works, I'm wondering if we can find any other publications which have referenced them and their contents. I'd like to know how far back their mentions go. ScratchMarshall (talk) 03:20, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
