In this bibliographical note, the author presents the first European, i.e., 1804 sales catalogue of Chinese books, provided that we do not count the booksellers catalogues of scholars’ private libraries in which Chinese language material consisted of few items only. The owner remained anonymous, but the agent was Antonio Montucci (1762–1829) – an early Sinologist who described the collection in a letter to the editor of the Gentleman’s Magazine in 1804. The books were acquired by the Duke of Devonshire. Their present location, however, has not been established. Montucci, who planned on editing a major Chinese dictionary for Europeans and had thousands of wooden types cut for this purpose at his own cost, was not given a chance neither in Paris nor in St. Petersburg where such projects were in preparation. His own Chinese library was sold to the Holy See before his death.

在这份书目笔记中,作者展示了欧洲第一本,即1804年的中文图书销售目录,前提是我们不计算只有少数中文资料的学者私人图书馆的书商目录。所有者保持匿名,但代理人是安东尼奥·蒙图奇(Antonio Montucci,1762-1829 年)——一位早期的汉学家,他在 1804 年写给绅士杂志编辑的一封信中描述了这本书。这些书被德文郡公爵收购。然而,他们目前的位置尚未确定。蒙图奇计划为欧洲人编辑一本主要的中文词典,并为此自费切割了数千种木制字体,但在巴黎和圣彼得堡都没有机会,因为这些项目正在筹备中。
