+ # Dataset Card for Liaozhai Zhiyi (Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio)
37
+
38
+ ## Description
39
+
40
+ ### Summary
41
+
42
+ This dataset contains 493 stories from the book Liaozhai Zhiyi (Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio), a collection of supernatural tales written by Pu Songling during the Qing dynasty. The stories were exported from Wikisource and processed into a structured format.
43
+
44
+ ### Languages
45
+
46
+ Traditional Chinese
47
+
48
+ ## Structure
49
+
50
+ ### Data Instances
51
+
52
+ Each instance in the dataset represents a single story from Liaozhai Zhiyi, with the following fields:
53
+
54
+ - `id`: A unique identifier for the story (integer)
55
+ - `volume`: The volume number in which the story appears (integer)
56
+ - `order_in_volume`: The order of the story within its volume (integer)
57
+ - `title`: The title of the story (string)
58
+ - `content`: The full text content of the story (string)
59
+
60
+ ## Dataset Creation
61
+
62
+ ### Curation Rationale
63
+
64
+ This dataset was created to make the stories from Liaozhai Zhiyi more accessible for computational analysis and natural language processing tasks. The book is an important work in Chinese literature and provides insights into Qing dynasty culture and folklore.
65
+
66
+ ### Source Data
67
+
68
+ #### Data Collection and Normalization
69
+
70
+ The source data was obtained from Wikisource using the "Download" / "Export" function to download the book in plaintext format. A Python script was then used to extract the stories.
71
+
72
+ ### Annotations
73
+
74
+ This dataset does not contain any additional annotations beyond the structure provided (id, volume, order, title, and content).
75
+
76
+ ## Considerations
77
+
78
+ ### Social Impact
79
+
80
+ This dataset provides easier access to an important work of Chinese literature, which can facilitate research in literature, history, and cultural studies. However, users should be aware that the stories reflect historical attitudes and may contain outdated or offensive content.
81
+
82
+ ### Biases
83
+
84
+ The stories in Liaozhai Zhiyi reflect the cultural norms and beliefs of Qing dynasty China. They may contain biases related to gender, social class, ethnicity, and supernatural beliefs that were prevalent at the time of writing.
85
+
86
+ ### Other Known Limitations
87
+
88
+ The dataset is based on a single edition from Wikisource and does not reflect variations or alternate versions of the stories.
