Particularly important for Nanbeichao, Tang, and Five Dynasties history. The second category under the section on dynastic histories (Guoshi 國史, juan 554) contains instances of historians refusing to bend under political pressure. There is an index to the names, titles, and technical terms in the sections on foreign countries and diplomatic affairs…..” -- Cf. Wilkinson, E., Chinese history, a new manual (2012), p. 957.
