Between the late 18th and early 20th century, there were a number of publishing companies in Beijing that copied arias from operas, folk ballads and other short literary texts at their customers¿ request and sold them from catalogues displayed at temple fairs. This research project explores how it was possible for a business model based on manuscripts to survive for more than a hundred years in an age of book-printing and lithography. It will examine how the manuscripts were produced and who bought them for what purpose.

在18世纪末到20世纪初，北京有许多出版公司应客户的要求，从歌剧、民谣和其他简短的文学文本中复制阿里亚斯调，并在庙会上展示的目录中出售。这个研究项目探讨了一个基于手稿的商业模式是如何在图书印刷和平版印刷的时代生存了一百多年的。它将研究手稿是如何产生的，以及谁出于什么目的购买了它们。
