The ????? ( ) is a complex formulary that is given little attention in the broader worlds of Chinese medicine and literature. Initially compiled in the fourth century by the Daoist scholar, Ge Hong ??, it was given the name ???? ( ). Since its creation, the text has undergone numerous changes, updates, expansions, and revisions at the hands of Tao Hongjing ???, Yang Yongdao ???, and other unnamed editors. As the text grew and changed, it became intertwined in the vast network of formularies that exist in Chinese medicine. Over the course of fifteen hundred years the text expanded and contracted until it was incorporated into the Daoist Canon published in 1445, as the ???????? ( ) which contains nearly two thousand formulas.
By tracing the history of the and its relationship to other works found in the genre of medical formularies, we can better understand the development and importance of this text, but also how formularies, grow, change, and influence each other as they transmit medical knowledge across generations.
