What is the difference between the Spring and Autumn Zuo Biography and the Spring and Autumn Ancient

The old theory of "Zuo Chuan", together with "The Legend of the Ram" and "The Biography of Gu Liang", is one of the three biographies that explain the "Spring and Autumn Period", and it is actually a historical masterpiece that records the history of the Spring and Autumn Period in China. It is also known as "Zuo's Spring and Autumn", "Spring and Autumn Zuo's Biography", and "Spring and Autumn Inner Biography". It is said to be written by Zuoqiu Ming of the Lu people at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the actual time of writing the book should be in the middle of the Warring States period.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, China already had a full-time historian who recorded an outline of important historical events in concise writing, and the Spring and Autumn Period is one of the ones that has been handed down. Around the middle of the 4th century BC, the Confucian post-scholars of the Wei State took the Spring and Autumn as the outline, and compiled the Zuo Chuan, an ancient Chinese chronicle, based on the historical record of the Blind Historian (blind historian) The Chinese and other texts that could be found at the time. Judging from the content, it should be a work in the middle of the Warring States period, and it cannot have been written by Zuo Qiu Ming, who was earlier than Confucius, but its main body may be the historical events narrated by Zuo Qiu Ming (瞽阇), so the final compiler took his main name.

Zuo Biography illustrates the outline recorded in the Spring and Autumn Period by narrating the specific historical events of the Spring and Autumn Period. Through the historical events introduced in "Zuo Chuan", we can truly understand the full significance of the title table of contents of "Spring and Autumn". Therefore, "Zuo's Biography" is in the "Sutra", and it is like the surface of clothes, and it is made of treating each other.

The "Zuo Chuan" not only records many important historical events in the Spring and Autumn Period, but also preserves a number of legends and ancient histories from the past. "Zuo Chuan" belonged to the ancient scriptures in the Western Han Dynasty and became the main classics in the ancient scriptures. Due to the view of the Han Dynasty scholars, it could not stand on the official school for a long time, and did not obtain the legal status of setting up a doctorate.

However, due to its own academic value, it can be widely popular among the people, and has been studied and appreciated by many famous scholars. Du of the Western Jin Dynasty pre-composed the "Spring and Autumn Classics Collection and Explanation", and began to compile the "Spring and Autumn" and "Zuo Chuan" into one book, absorbing Han and Confucian explanations, examining the similarities and differences, and becoming a specialized study. Subsequently, the status of "Zuo Chuan" gradually surpassed that of "The Legend of the Ram" and "The Biography of Gu Liang".

Tang man Kong Yingda made a sparse and complied with Du Note. Qing man Hong Liangji's "Spring and Autumn Left Biography" is more criticized by Du Note. Yang Bojun, a close friend, wrote "Notes on the Left Biography of the Spring and Autumn Period", which is concise and applicable.

The Biography of Gu Liang, the Biography of the Left, and the Biography of the Ram are the three transmissions that explain the "Spring and Autumn Period". It is also known as "The Legend of Liang in the Spring and Autumn Valley". It is said that Gu Liangchi, a Chinese Lu man, "received the scriptures from Zixia and passed on the scriptures".

In fact, it should be the collective discussion of several generations of scholars who taught Confucius the Spring and Autumn Period, and the time when the book was compiled and compiled was no later than the early Han Dynasty. When Emperor Xuan, he set up a doctor for it. It is generally believed that "The Biography of Gu Liang" belongs to the "Jinwenjing".

The main text of the book is more than 10,000 words, and the Q&A style is used to explain the "Spring and Autumn Period", focusing on expounding the political significance of the Jingyi, that is, the "Spring and Autumn Period", which is roughly the same tone as the "Legend of the Ram", but there are also differences on individual specific issues. Fan Ning of the Eastern Jin Dynasty collected and commented on the precepts of the Zhu family "Spring and Autumn Valley Liang Biography Collection Explanation", flaunting and adopting the public opinions, choosing the good and following, and the Tang Dynasty Yang Shixun made a sparse work for it, becoming the "Spring and Autumn Valley Liang Biography Commentary". Zhong Wenhao, a Qing dynasty man, has "Gu Liang Supplement", which collects the testaments of predecessors and can be used for reference.

The main account of the left biography is the main account, and the main account of the biography of Gu Liang.

<> what I bring to you today is the classic of Chinese cultureThe Three Character Classics The Three Character Classics", ".The three passers, there are rams, there are Zuo, and there are Gu Liang".

The Three Messengers: The Transmission is the commentary on the scriptures, and the person is this thing, this thing, and this name.

There is a ram: The ram refers to the book "The Legend of the Ram".

There is Zuo: Zuo refers to the book "Zuo Chuan".

There is Gu Liang: Gu Liang refers to the book "The Biography of Gu Liang".

Then the whole sentence".The three passers, there are rams, there are Zuo, and there are Gu LiangThe specific meaning of " is:

The three biographies are the "Ram Biography" written by Yang Gao, the "Zuo Biography" written by Zuo Qiu Ming and the "Gu Liang Biography" written by Gu Liangchi, which are all books that explain the "Spring and Autumn Period". This sentence of "Three Character Classic" is actually to tell us such a thing:

Confucius's "Spring and Autumn Period" is concise in writing, but it contains profound meanings, and because of its age, it is impossible to read such subtle words without the next study effort. The three biographies are three books that explain the meaning of the "Spring and Autumn Period", so you must read the three biographies carefully in order to study and understand them. With this sentence ".The Three Character Classic

The story goes like this: Dong Zhongshu, a native of Guangchuan County, Han Dynasty, is now a native of Jing County, Hebei Province. Han Dynasty thinker, philosopher, politician, educator.

Dong Zhongshu's Spring and Autumn Dew is an important work of the Han Dynasty. There are more than 80 articles such as "Jade Cup" and "Bamboo Forest" in the existing "Spring and Autumn Dew".

"Spring and Autumn Dew" preaches the theological teleology of "the unity of heaven and man" and "the induction of heaven and man". The author believes that heaven has a will, is the master of all things in the universe, and is the supreme god. Dong Zhongshu put forward a relatively complete ideological system in "Spring and Autumn Dew", although the philosophical form of various dynasties has changed in the future, but this idea has always occupied a dominant position in China's feudal society.

After the story is told, do you understand the truth? Okay, that's the end of our study for today.

Zuo Chuan is a description of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the Ram Biography and Gu Liang Biography are also a kind of commentary and interpretation of the Spring and Autumn Period, but the way of interpretation is different.

The Spring and Autumn Period was written according to the Zuo Chuan, and these books are relatively close to each other, and these four books are called the Four Great Strange Books.

"Zuo Chuan", "Ram Biography" and "Gu Liang Biography" are collectively known as the Spring and Autumn Three Biography, all of which are books that explain the "Spring and Autumn Period" in detail, Zuo, Ram, and Gu Liang are all the author's surnames, and the later "Spring and Autumn Three Biography" are all chronicles recompiled and sorted out in the Han Dynasty. Among them, the interpretation of "Spring and Autumn" in "Zuo Chuan" focuses on memorization, and the very simple record is supplemented in detail, because it is a narrative-based historical material, so it is mentioned the most today; And "The Legend of the Ram" is based on the sentences in "Spring and Autumn", which specifically illustrates the meaning of small words; "The Biography of Gu Liang" explains the words in "Spring and Autumn" and explains the righteousness.

Zuo Biography is a historical book based on the content of the Spring and Autumn Period that describes the specific historical facts of the Spring and Autumn Period.

The Spring and Autumn Period" is a record of the major events of various countries in the Spring and Autumn Period for more than 240 years, and the full text is now preserved, but it is more than 16,000 words, and the text is concise and not easy to understand. Therefore, the works of interpretation appear one after another, explaining and explaining the records in the book, which is called "biography".

Zuo Chuan Xinghao is a historical book based on the Spring and Autumn Period, which explains the outline of the Spring and Autumn Period by describing the specific historical facts of the Spring and Autumn Period, and is one of the important classics of Confucianism. Among them, Zuo Qiu Ming's "Spring and Autumn Zuo's Biography", Ram Gao's "Spring and Autumn Ram Biography", and Gu Liangchi's "Spring and Autumn Gu Liang Biography" are collectively known as "Spring and Autumn Three Biography" and are included in the Confucian classics.

The relationship between "Zuo Chuan" and "Spring and Autumn" has always had different views. Some people think that "Zuo Chuan" is a historical biography. The Eastern Han Dynasty Huan Tan's "New Treatise" believes:

Zuo's "Sutra and Transmission, the surface of the clothes, the cautious things are held together, and there is no transmission, so that the saint can not know it for ten years of closed-door thinking. In other words, if there is no "Zuo Chuan", everyone only reads the 17,000 words of the "Spring and Autumn Classic", even if the sage closes his eyes for ten years as a reference, he will not be able to understand the content clearly. With "Zuo Biography", you can quickly understand that you are not a saint.

This is a view of Huan Tan, and later Sima Qian, Du Pre, including modern scholars Xu Zhongshu and Yang Bojun all have such views. Mr. Yang Bojun further summarized the way in which the content of "Zuo Chuan" and "Spring and Autumn" is inherited, and there are four points: First, "Zuo Chuan" shows that "Spring and Autumn" is generally not about small words.

Of course, "Ram" and "Gu Liang" have explained more about the subtle meaning of "Slow Spring and Autumn". Second, "Zuo Biography" adds a lot of details, that is, these things are not in "Spring and Autumn". Third, some errors in the Spring and Autumn Period have been corrected.

Fourth, it adds the passage of scriptures.

The second school of thought holds that Zuo Chuan is an independent book and has nothing to do with Spring and Autumn. Dr. Jin Wenjing of the Western Han Dynasty believes that "Zuo's" does not pass on "Spring and Autumn". The king of the Jin people also said:

Zuo's "Rich in Words, is a book, not a book. "Ram" is attached to the scriptures and passed on, the scriptures are not written, the transmission is not presumptuous, the text is thrifty, and the passage is long. Next, Liu Fenglu, a Qing man, had such a view.

Later, Pi Xirui said in "General Theory of Classics, General Theory of Spring and Autumn": "Since childhood, I have read the book of "Zuo's Biography" without books, and it is only detailed in a few years before the Yin Gong, and then it is very sloppy, and it is suspected that it should not be so hasty, and look at Liu's research on the "Zuo" commentary, which is especially very much in the Yin Kuan, which liquid Huan Zhuang Min is very much, and more of the things of Jin and Chu are perfunctory, and they seem to be out of the Jin "Cheng" and Chu "梼杌", especially suspicious. He said that after reading Liu Fenglu's research, he became more and more convinced that "Zuo Chuan" was not about "Spring and Autumn".

The third school believes that "Zuo Chuan" is not a historical book, but a work that transmits "Spring and Autumn". This school of thought believes that there were many major historical events in the Spring and Autumn Period, but the "Zuo Chuan" turned a blind eye, if it is really a historical book, these major events "Zuo Chuan" will not be ignored, the main representative of this school of scholars is Mr. Zhao Shengqun, he put forward such a view in the "Spring and Autumn Classics Research". In addition, Mr. Jiang Boqian also has such a point of view, which thinks:

The three biographies are all the legends of "Spring and Autumn", and they are all interpreters. It's just that there is a difference between the three passes, "Ram" and "Gu Liang" focus on righteous examples, and "Zuo Biography" focuses on facts.

According to legend, the Spring and Autumn Period was written by Confucius in the Warring States of Wu, and the Zuo Spring and Autumn Period (usually called the Zuo Chuan

It is written by Zuo Qiu Ming, the historian of the defeat of the Lu State during the Warring States Period, and it is the first and most detailed chronicle of the general history found in our country.

As for their relationship, it is "Zuo Chuan" that complements "Spring and Autumn". By the way, "Spring and Autumn" is supplemented by "The Legend of the Ram".

and "The Biography of Gu Liang".

The writings of people from different countries all record the history of the Spring and Autumn Period.

The exposition of the Spring and Autumn Period of the three schools surpasses that of Tongji, so it is the Three Transmissions.

These three books are to explain the "Spring and Autumn", because the "Spring and Autumn" is written too concisely.
