Abstract

The Hoàng Lê nhât thông chí is an indispensable text for the study of late eighteenth-century Vietnamese history and especially the Tây So'n uprising. Its influence on subsequent historiography, however, has often been overlooked. This article examines the text, its content and genre, and demonstrates its historiographical impact on both nineteenth-and twentieth-century histories of the Tây So'n period.
