In an earlier project funded by DFG, 881 handwritten volumes with medical contents of the 16th through mid-20th century from China, held by Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin and Ethnology Museum Berlin-Dahlem, have been described in detail. The availability of these texts has broadened the realm of primary sources for research on historical Chinese therapeutic concepts and practice in an unprecedented way. For many decades, historians of Chinese medicine have almost exclusively focused on printed Chinese texts. Their contents, though, are limited through various ethical, ideological, and also financial constraints. In contrast, most of the handwritten texts have been written for personal use only, not for publication. Here one finds documented numerous aspects of health care knowledge and practice that are absent from printed literature. These include ethical issues such as abortion, discussions of how to best make money (including cheating patients), therapies long-lost in printed literature, and others more. The authors of these texts include private households and lay practitioners, itinerant and folk healers and professionally trained physicians, pharmacists and magicians, students and others. The data included in these handwritten volumes permit a much more encompassing and realistic image of pre-modern Chinese health care delivery than printed literature could offer. The survey of contents of the 881 volumes following the conclusion of the earlier project was published by Paul U. Unschuld and ZHENG Jinsheng under the title: Chinese Traditional Healing. The Berlin Collections of Manuscript Volumes from the 16th through the early 20th Century. Leiden, Boston: Brill, 2012, in three volumes totaling more than 2.800 pages. This set of volumes has stimulated a wide interest in these sources. Request for digitalized copies have been received in increasing numbers by Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin following publication of the Brill volumes. With the cataloguing and preliminary portrayal of the contents of the remaining 100 volumes the complete set of handwritten volumes held in Berlin will be opened for further research.

在DFG资助的一个早期项目中，详细描述了由柏林国家图书馆和柏林-达莱姆民族学博物馆收藏的中国手写的881卷16世纪至20世纪中叶的医学内容。这些文本的可获得性以前所未有的方式拓宽了研究中国历史治疗概念和实践的主要来源的领域。几十年来，中医历史学家几乎只专注于印刷的中文文本。然而，他们的内容受到各种道德、意识形态和财政限制的限制。相比之下，大多数手写文本仅供个人使用，而不是为了出版。在这里，你会发现有记录的医疗保健知识和实践的许多方面，而印刷文献中没有这些方面。这些问题包括伦理问题，如堕胎，关于如何最好地赚钱的讨论(包括欺骗患者)，在印刷文献中长期丢失的治疗方法，以及其他更多。这些文本的作者包括私人家庭和非专业从业者、巡回和民间治疗师和受过专业培训的医生、药剂师和魔术师、学生和其他人。与纸质文献相比，这些手写书籍中包含的数据提供了一个更全面、更现实的前现代中国医疗保健服务形象。文树德和郑金生以《中国传统治疗法》为题发表了对早期项目结束后的881卷内容的调查。从16世纪到20世纪初的柏林手稿卷收藏。波士顿莱顿：布里尔，2012年，三卷，总计2.800多页。这套书激发了人们对这些来源的广泛兴趣。在布里尔卷出版后，柏林图书馆收到了越来越多的关于数字化副本的请求。随着其余100卷内容的编目和初步描述，柏林保存的全套手写卷将开放供进一步研究。
