What do you think of Historical Records ? What is the Chronicles?

The scale of the "Historical Records" is huge, the system is complete, and it has a deep influence on the subsequent chronicle history books.

In my opinion, the biggest feature of "Historical Records" is the vividness of the description, and the vividness of the narrative is the highest achievement.

Life, nation, and country will all have different challenges. In order to deal with these different challenges, people's relevant measures, methods, wisdom, and all the records of successes and failures constitute history.

The "Records of the History" is commensurate with the quality of the text, that is, the literary style and simplicity are very well grasped, which has become an important criterion for writing history later.

Reading history is like watching masters play chess, and every step they take leaves some historical imprints, which constitutes the endgame of a chess game. We are familiar with this endgame, and we can play chess; We are familiar with history, and we know these different challenges to the human world.

I have the same opinion as Mr. Lu Xun, "The swan song of the historian is the rhyme of separation!" ”

The three parts of the book, "The Family", and "The Biography", which account for most of the book, are centered on writing characters to record history, and as a result, Sima Qian created a new style of historical books, "Ji Biography Style".

The "Historical Records" begins with the legend of "Three Emperors and Five Emperors" and ends in the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, which is a general history, and at the same time, the historical records are also a historical book.

It takes historical emperors and other political central figures as the main line of compilation of historical books, and the division of labor in various styles is clear.

Truth is often abstract, history is concrete. Abstract truths can enable us to understand the truth of contingency in concrete historical situations.

The historical records themselves are slanderous books, deliberately black Han Dynasty, so let Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty castrate!

The Records of the Historian is the first general history of Chinese history compiled by Sima Qian of the Han Dynasty.

Who can guarantee that the "Chronicles" is not adulterated with water? Contemporary national history cannot guarantee the authenticity, let alone the "Historical Records" more than 2,000 years ago, which cannot be too superstitious about the ancients, and the credibility is only about ninety percent!

First of all, historical records are not official repairs, but personal actions, and they were not taken seriously until the Song Dynasty.

History after the annals is unrecognizable!

The swan song of the historian, the rhyme of the separation.

The Records of the Historian is a historical work compiled by Sima Qian, a historian of the Western Han Dynasty in China. The Records of the Historian is one of the most famous classical classics in ancient China, and together with the later Book of Han, Book of the Later Han Dynasty, and Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, it is known as the "First Four History".

The "Historical Records" originally did not have a fixed title, or "Taishi Gongshu" quietly contained the base, or "Taishi Gongji", also called "Taishi Gongji", also called "Taishi Gong". "Historical Records" was originally a common name for ancient history books, and since the Three Kingdoms period, "Historical Records" has gradually become a special name for "Taishi Gongshu" from the general name of historical books.

The "Historical Records" records the history of more than 3,000 years from the era of the Yellow Emperor in ancient Chinese legends to the first year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The book includes 12 books, 30 families, 70 biographies, 10 tables, and 8 books, with a total of 130 articles and more than 526,500 words. The author Sima Qian, with his historical knowledge of "studying heaven and man, through the changes of the past and the present, and becoming the words of a family", made the "Records of the Historians" the first and most famous general history of China.

The Records of the Historians had a profound impact on the development of historiography and literature in later generations. The method of compiling history in the form of chronicles pioneered by him has been inherited by the "official history" of later dynasties. At the same time, the Records of the Historian is also regarded as an excellent literary work and has an important position in the history of Chinese literature.

Lu Xun called it "the swan song of the historian, the rhyme and the departure of the cautious".

The Historical Records was written from 104 BC to 91 BC, originally there was no title, Sima Qian completed this masterpiece and gave it to the scholar Dongfang Shuo at that time, Dongfang Shuo admired it very much, and added the word "Taishi Gong" to the book. "Taishi" is Sima Qian's official position, "Gong" is a good title, and "Taishi Gong" is just a work that indicates whose work. When Ban Gu's "Hanshu Art and Literature Chronicles" was written in this book, it was changed to "One Hundred and Thirty Chapters of Taishi Gongji", and later generations simplified it to "Taishi Gongji", "Taishi Gongshu", and "Taishi Gongchuan".

The Records of the Historians originally did not have a fixed title, or "Taishi Gongshu", or "Taishi Gongji", or "Taishi Gongji", also known as "Taishi Gong". "Historical Records" was originally a common name for ancient historical books, and since the Three Kingdoms, "Historical Records" has gradually become a special name for "Taishi Gongshu". Liang Qichao, a close friend, praised this masterpiece as "a masterpiece of the ages" ("On the General Trend of Changes in Chinese Academic Thought").

Lu Xun praised it as "the swan song of the historian, the rhymeless "Lisao" (Outline of the History of Chinese Literature).
