Did Sima Qian complete the Records of the Historians alone, or did Sima talk about the cooperation

The Records of the Historian was created independently by Sima Qian, but Sima Tan had accumulated materials before, as well as Wang Guowei, and Gu Jiegang believed that "The Biography of the Assassins", "The Biography of Fan Liteng", and "The Biography of Lisheng and Lu Jialie" were all written by Sima Tan.

The basis is Wang Guowei's "Taishi Gongxing Annual Examination"."According to the "Historical Records", "The Biography of Qu Yuan Jia Sheng" has Jia Jia, "The Biography of the Assassins" has Gongsun Ji Zhong and Dong Sheng, "The Biography of Fan Li Teng Guan Lie" has Fan Itguang, "The Biography of Li Sheng Lu Jia Lie" has the Plains Gentleman (Zhu Jianzi), "Zhang Shizhi Feng Tang Lie Biography" has Feng Sui (the word Wang Sun, "Zhao Shijia" Yiyun'Yu Wenzhi Feng Wang Sun'"The Biography of Uncle Tian" has Tian Ren, "The Biography of Han Changru" has Husui, "The Biography of General Wei's Hussars" has Su Jian, and "Self-Introduction" has Dong Sheng. And Gongsun Ji Zhong and Dong Sheng (non-Zhongshu) once traveled with Qin Xia, and the age of Jing Ke's assassination of King Qin was three years away from Shi Gong's birth year of eighty, and the two of them may not be able to see Shi Gong's affairs in time. It is also wide and widespread, and the gentlemen of the plains are far ahead of Shi Gong.

However, these three legends are chronicled, and Shi Gong or chasing Ji Father also talks. "There are many references to the author's social practice in the text of the "Historical Records", and some of them are analyzed by age, and they are not the same as Sima Qian, so Wang Guowei judged that Sima Qian remembered the words of his father Sima Tan.

Gu Jiegang and others also think so, I think it's probably reliable, but there are still a few articles that are also in doubt, and I am preparing to write an article on this**.

The "Historical Records" was compiled by Sima Qian, who investigated and collected some materials, and Sima Qian's investigation and collection of the remaining materials.

It's done alone. Sima Tan just had this idea and did not put it into practice.

Is it cooperation, the completion of the historical records or Sima Tan's deathbed wishes!

It was Sima Qian who did it alone.

Sima Qian did it alone.

Sima Qian did it alone.

This Sima Tan is Sima Qian's father, he once wanted to write a history book, but the sky did not fulfill people's wishes, and later Sima Qian completed his father's will, determined to complete the work "Historical Records"! Sima Qian is a historian, I believe there is no need to repeat it here, Sima Qian's achievements and attainments in historiography are enough to make him one of the greatest historians in the Western Han Dynasty and even in Chinese history. The reason why Sima Qian is a literary scholar is also because Sima Qian's "Historical Records" can be said to be a very readable literary work in addition to being a historical book.

The Records of the Historian is the first work in Chinese history to focus on the description of characters, Sima Qian's superb literary literacy, as well as vivid writing, the narrative of many things are described very expressively, full of emotion. And for the judgment of things, Sima Qian also has his own criteria.

It can also be said that a number of important historical figures have been established in the "Historical Records", which have provided important writing materials for many ** and dramas in the future, and many emperors, heroes, and knights have also evolved from this. Moreover, many ** in later generations are "biography" for the people and written in the form of biography, which is also the influence of "Historical Records" on later generations. Therefore, as a literary work, "Historical Records" also has a very far-reaching impact on later generations, so Sima Qian is also a very accomplished writer.

Of course, Sima Qian is also a thinker, and there are also very philosophical words in the "Historical Records", such as "Fish are born in water and die in water; Plants and trees are born in the soil and die in the soil; Born in the Tao and died in the Dao", etc., its core is the nature of the Heavenly Dao, which embodies the idea of "migrating with time", which is deeply rooted in the essence of Taoism.

Because Sima Qian's experience is consistent with the relevant records in reality, and there is no direct relationship with Sima Tan, it can be identified that the actual author is Sima Qian.

However, the historical records are not ordinary historical books, and the historical records can be regarded as literary works, which are not just "compiled according to the historical books of the previous generations", but written by Sima Qian with painstaking efforts.

The condition for the writing of the historical records was Sima Qian's insistence on his belief in completion. and his own rich knowledge of history. Objectively, various historical materials accumulated in the pre-Qin period.

After the development to the maturity of the Han Dynasty historical compilation style. The writing experience accumulated by the historians of ancient dynasties provided a reference for Sima Qian's writing. Political unity, economic prosperity provides a good environment for his writing.

Details of the Historical RecordsThe Records of the Historian is the first general history of China written by Sima Qian. It records more than 3,000 years of history, philosophy, politics, economy, and military from the era of the Yellow Emperor in ancient legends to the Yuan Hunt period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. "Historical Records" originally did not have a fixed title, or called Taishi Gongshu, or Taishi Gongchuan, also known as Taishi Gong.

Since the Three Kingdoms period, the historical records have gradually become the special name of the Taishi Gongshu from the general name of the historical books.
