In the past 300 years, Guanzhi of Ancient Prose has been widely circulated and has a great influence, and it is unique among many ancient prose anthologies. Mr. Lu Xun, when commenting on The View of Ancient Chinese Literature, thought that it was the same as Zhao Ming's Selected Works, "both of them have the same influence on literature." [ 1]
Classical Chinese Edition of Zhonghua Book Company 198 1
After the founding of New China, especially in recent ten years, many translations of Guanzi in ancient China are based on Zhonghua Book Company. There are two kinds of books published by Zhonghua Book Company: one is 1959 edition. This is a book transferred from the original ancient books publishing house. This book "breaks sentences according to Xue Ying Tang Ben's viewpoint and corrects some obvious typos". The second version is 1987, which is Anping Autumn School. Although this edition is based on 1959, it has been checked with the original edition of Yingxuetang, with Wenfutang Edition, Hu Aijing Edition and Hong Wen Hall Edition, and has been collated with ancient prose collected from relevant historical books, collections and other books, supplementing the preface to the 25 th Five-Year Plan and examples written by Cheng Quan. So the latter is the best version you can see. [ 1]
The ancient prose selected in this book is mainly prose, and both verse and parallel prose are accepted. Zuo Zhuan in the pre-Qin period was selected the most, and Historical Records in the Han Dynasty and articles by Han Yu, Liu Zongyuan, Ouyang Xiu and Su Shi in the Tang and Song Dynasties were selected the most. Stylistically, the book selected 13 rhymes, such as Supplement to Chu Ci, Poem of Tao Yuanming's Returning Home, and Fu of Tu Mu's Epang Palace. These works are "extremely beautiful and extremely poor" and are good at description. Although rhyme is mostly used for description, it is different from poetry in that it is combined with rhyme and scattered to enhance the beauty of sound and emotion. Prose means taking notes, telling fables and so on. The book is rich in selected articles, short in length, concise in language and easy to read, many of which are famous articles that have been told for a hundred years. [2]
The authors of The View of Ancient Literature are Wu Chengquan and Wu Tiaohou, uncles and nephews in the early Qing Dynasty (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang). Wu Chengquan, the word Chu Cai. He studied classical Chinese all his life in order to understand the classics and history. In the 15th year of Kangxi (1676), Mr. Fu taught his uncle's son to learn ancient Chinese in Fuzhou, and then took it as a teacher.
The concept of ancient Chinese prose ends in the first volume and the second volume.
Funded the museum for the rest of his life. In addition to participating in the compilation of China's View on Ancient Literature, together with Zhou Jiong and Zhou Zhican, he compiled a popular historical reader, Lu Lulve, modeled on Zhu's As a Mirror. The official position is very big, the tone of voice is also very heavy, and he is also addicted to "ancient learning" and "talent". The main experience of his life is to teach with his uncle in his hometown. Secondly, it took several years for Wu to compile "A View of China Ancient Literature". At first, they just made up some handouts to teach the boy classical Chinese. Later, after years of teaching, my understanding of ancient Chinese became deeper and deeper, and my lectures became more and more refined, so that "good people wrote by hand" and left. "Mr. Xiang" sighed after reading it and advised them to "hand it over and make it public." In this way, they compiled A Number of Students Studying on weekdays into a book. After the manuscript was compiled, it was sent to Guihua (now Hohhot) for Wu Xingzuo's review. Xing Zuo, the word Bocheng, stayed in the village, and took the uncle for power. He was the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi and then the deputy commander-in-chief of the Han army. He "read and count", thinking that this book is of great benefit to beginners of ancient Chinese, and it is convenient for Kangxi to make a preface to the book Dragon Boat Festival in the thirty-fourth year (1695), and he is "eager to compile it into pears and dates". In this way, the earliest edition of China's View on Ancient Literature was produced. [ 1]
3 characteristics of works
The articles selected in this book are excellent works, with concise language, short and pithy, and easy to recite. The standard of Hengwen basically takes both ideological and artistic qualities into consideration. Of course, the so-called ideological nature is based on not violating feudal orthodoxy.
The manuscript of ancient prose
Candidates took ancient prose as authentic works and did not exclude four parallel prose, which was valuable at that time; At the middle or end of the article, candidates have some clips or tails to help beginners understand the article; In terms of style, it is worthy of recognition to change the habit of predecessors to classify by style, but to take the times as the classics and writers as the latitude. [3]
China's View on Ancient Literature is a good collection. To put it bluntly, it is because the most representative works of the best writers are catalogued in turn according to the historical process, just like walking in the corridor of the development history of ancient China prose, seeking the source with the waves and seeking the leaves from the branches, and you can easily understand the context; In other words, Guanzi, the ancient literature of China, almost covers all kinds of styles and contents of China's ancient articles. Look: how the elegant and euphemistic rhetoric of pre-Qin diplomats completed a war without smoke, and how strategists killed each other to solve problems; The emperor was thirsty for sage, so he wrote a letter. The courtiers were full of good ideas, so they went to the table. Lanting gathering of celebrities in Wei and Jin Dynasties, recorded by Wang Xizhi. Xu Jingye wants to crusade against Wu Zetian, and Wang is a great writer; Concerned about politics, there are many theories, and people who understand the people's feelings are frequently circulated; Friends are leaving, there are gift orders, return to nature, and travel notes; So I saw Su Shi's inscription for Han Yu: "The decline of eight generations of literature, while Daoji drowned in the world;" Loyalty and anger are better than the handsome of the three armed forces "; So I saw the Epang Palace restored by Du Mu in words; There is also an examination paper, recommending a job application; There is also the Peach Blossom Garden in the dream and the drunken pavilion after drunkenness; The sense of hardship on Yueyang Tower, the literati spirit in Wang Tengting ... everything is presented in this world, which is dizzying and unforgettable. [2]
The selected essays of China Ancient Literature are mainly prose, with occasional parallel prose and ci fu. Basically, they are masterpieces handed down from generation to generation with "eternal artistic charm". The editor named it "Guanzhi", and I'm afraid it does have the heartfelt admiration of Wu Gongzi Ji Zha when watching dance music. From this perspective, the concept of China's ancient literature is an image of China's prose in the past dynasties, and it is also a living process of prose development. [3]
On the other hand, Guanzi, an ancient literature of China, was selected by children and ordinary lovers of ancient literature of China at that time, but it didn't taste kitsch at all. These immortal classics contain rich historical knowledge, mature life experience, profound article aesthetics and even profound cosmic philosophy. In the vast sea of China's prose, there are too many excellent works. The works selected in "Ancient prose" really make children's reading volume not high, and the readers' reading volume is not low either, much like the well-known "Three Hundred Tang Poems". These two anthologies are the double treasures of China traditional literature popular reading materials. [4]
The collection of ancient prose is mainly composed of prose and parallel prose. Compared with the anthology of ancient Chinese prose since Wenxuan, it covers a long time, with a small number, diverse genres and few factions, which can be described as extensive, simple and moderate. In terms of arrangement, the book is divided into seven periods according to the times, and each period has key writers and works. From this, we can see the origin of the development of China's ancient prose and analyze the different styles of various writers. Each article is also accompanied by brief comments to help readers understand the meaning of the article and master the composition of the article. Most of the selected articles are masterpieces that have been read for a long time, so this book is popular so far. [4]

5 social impact
The book China's View on Ancient Literature is moderate in length, and most of the selected articles are from Han and Tang Dynasties.
Ancient prose view stop copybook edition
Prose-oriented, parallel rhyme, both length and length, reflects the editor's meticulous and thoughtful vision. Its distinctive features and outstanding advantages make it the most popular, popular, well-known and influential anthology of ancient Chinese prose for beginners in the past 300 years. It is often used as an enlightenment book for private schools and schools, and almost every family has one, which is very popular in China. So, what are its most prominent features and advantages? Most of the ancient Chinese anthologies before Guanzi are based on the style of Wenxuan written by Prince Xiao Tong of Zhaoming, which is complicated in classification and often takes items as units, making it difficult to read and use. On the other hand, the concept of ancient prose takes the times as the key link and the author as the purpose, concentrating the works of various styles of the author in one place, which is convenient to read and quick to consult, so that readers have a clear understanding and deep impression on the history of prose before the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, the popularity, popularity and authority of the ancient prose concept are still difficult to shake, and it still has great influence. It is the first choice of popular ancient prose for young people, and it is still selling well again now. [ 1]
6 engineering evaluation
China's View on Ancient Literature is an ancient China book, which has written a famous article about the 5,000-year history of China.
Simplified version of ancient prose view
There are more than 200 short and catchy essays in it, which show the profoundness of ancient culture in China and the extraordinary wisdom of ancient people in China from many angles. There are famous works by scholars and celebrities before the Qing Dynasty, and there are four books and five classics, the Book of Rites, Zuo Zhuan and so on that the ancients must learn. For example, Wang Xizhi's Preface to Lanting Collection, Han Yu's Shi Shuo, Fan Zhongyan's Yueyang Tower and so on. Can feel their inner thoughts. This book is rich in knowledge, including historical materials, ancient literature, poetry and painting reviews, and landscape introductions ... May the light of wisdom illuminate thousands of families in Qian Qian, and at the same time illuminate thousands of souls eager for knowledge in Qian Qian, so as to make the spiritual space of mankind brighter and brighter. "Ancient prose view stops", the light of wisdom! The selected articles can include the essence of ancient Chinese prose, annotations can also remove obstacles to reading and understanding ancient Chinese prose, and annotations can also explain the beauty of writing. This way of reading will naturally be welcomed by beginners, so Wu Xingzuo said, "Learn well and use well" (preface). Of course, there are also some shortcomings in the selection of the ancient literature view: Qin Wen selected more articles, but Zi Shu did not; There are too few anthologies of the Eight Dynasties, and the anthologies of the Tang and Song Dynasties are too concentrated in the Eight Schools, while the works of the Southern Song Dynasty are not selected at all, and the works of the Yuan Dynasty are also lacking. Although 18 articles were selected in the Ming Dynasty, most of them were not "Guan" works. Moreover, there are many brilliant ideas in artistic analysis, and it is difficult to jump out of the pattern of inheritance and integration. [4]
The advantages and disadvantages of China Ancient Literature are mainly brought by its editing methods. The compiling method of Wu Chengshu is "collection" or "compilation". The so-called "the remaining two people are not Hu Yan's choice, they are all floating clouds." Where's the rally? "Collection of ancient prose, collection of ancient and modern people's choices, short in detail, complicated in brief, combined with scattered, determined by the wrong person, corrected by the wrong person. Writers have their own thoughts and profound meanings on ancient Austria. Readers take this and use beauty or heritage, and the overview is difficult to remember, so the other two make up (for example). [4]
The editor also made wonderful comments on the selected articles, which added wings to our reading. Sometimes, it is analyzed from the syntax and words of the article. For example, Ouyang Xiu's "Preface to Drunk Pavilion" commented: "Twenty-nine' ye' characters are used throughout, gradually unloading and falling. Every sentence is to remember the landscape, every sentence is to remember the pavilion, and every sentence is to remember too much, which seems to be scattered but not scattered, which seems to be a line, and the writer's creative tone is also. " In a few words, describe the article with a little character. Sometimes comments begin with life experiences and human feelings, such as Biographies of Qu Yuan in Historical Records: "When Shi Gong wrote Biographies of Qu Yuan, his articles were like Li Sao, which made people feel sad to read. If you want to write a book, Shi Gong and Qu Zi are really one, so you should worry about sighing and say nothing. " This passage also reveals the soul of the author and the hero of the biography, and reveals its touching charm. These comments are not only helpful for reading, but also because the words themselves are beautiful, pleasant to hear, smooth and euphemistic, giving people a beautiful enjoyment, so this dual aesthetics adds a lot of charm to this book. [2]
Comments are mainly taken from Lu, Lou, Xie, Tang, Mao and Jin, with Lou, Mao and Jin having the most opinions. Most of the comments are recorded directly, such as the general comments of exhorting the guests to leave, preface to seeing off Li Yuan and Pangu, and preface to seeing off, all of which are copied from Lou Wenxuan. Some words were recorded for comments, such as Snake Catcher and Preface to Yuxi Poetry, and half of them were taken from Lou's collected works. About the General Comment, Debate on Taboo, and Jishi Jiro Wen are half taken from Mao Wenxuan. Some general comments of Yan Zi's Immortality, Biography of Five Emperors, Hanging Ancient Battlefield, Waiting for Lun, etc. are taken from Selected Letters from the Jin Family. Comments on the building, such as Answering Ren 'an's Letter, Reporting Sun's Letter, Planting Camels, Notes of Fengle Pavilion, Notes of Luoyang Famous Garden and Monument to Jianyuan, are all based on the original comments. The general comments of Delin Jie, Argument for Officials and Letter to Ouyang Sheren are the manifestations of Mao's comments. A General Review of Qianchibi Fu is a rewriting of Jin's comments, while A General Review of Transcendental Stories is developed on the basis of comments. There are also some comments that combine the theories of various schools with their own, such as the general review of Yueyang Tower, reading the Biography of Meng Changjun and the Pavilion of Western Languages, that is, the theory of building and gold. This method of selecting the best from the best and summarizing the best is often used when commenting sentence by sentence and paragraph by paragraph. For example, the annotation "forbearance is an idea" at the end of the first paragraph of Houlun is taken from Lu's comment on writing, while the annotation "This sentence and the beginning of the article are also discussed" under "its meaning is not in the book" is taken from Jin's original annotation. Second, the reason why Wu "named his family's old notes, giving consideration to personal interests" is because they think that "each has its own wonderful solution, and there are many omissions. When taking its strengths and making up its shortcomings, it is a perfect match" (Example). In fact, another important reason is that this book is for children to learn. No matter what viewpoint you choose and what comments you make, you should strive for "honesty" and "safety". Novel but not weird, practical and avoid deviation. So they don't choose radical or deviant articles, and don't record comments with ideological characteristics, great personality and full of emotion. They often adopt the method of learning from others' wisdom and explaining the original annotation, in order to make the annotation comprehensive and safe. In this way, it is possible for the concept of ancient prose to absorb all the advantages of various anthologies, which has long been welcomed by China ancient lovers, so that when talking about the influence of anthologies on China literature, Lu Xun mentioned it together with anthologies, saying, "At first glance, it seems ridiculous, but both of them have the same influence on literature." [2]
"Ancient prose" is the most beautiful, valuable and representative ancient prose collected by the author from a sharp perspective in the vast ocean of China literature, so this book is also the best selection of ancient prose. For hundreds of years, not only scholars are familiar with it, but also the general public loves it and spreads it widely. Although due to the limitation of the author's thought, the selected articles are strongly neo-Confucianism, but it does build a shortcut for readers to appreciate the essence of ancient Chinese, so it is inevitable that their reputation will not drop. [5]
