Excerpt from Elementary Chinese: Translated and Annotated

It is hoped that the present work will prove to be an advance upon those which have gone before. In addition to the text of Wang Hsiang and a translation with explanatory notes, the literal meaning of each character is given; with its sound and its all-important tone according to the Peking dialect, and with its structural analysis as found in the a at Shuo Wen, an etymological dictionary by 33 - 13 ''e''e Hsfi Shen, who died about ad. 120. There are also some Appendices, showing passages which have been interpolated by later hands, chie?y in order to bring the historical portion down to the present dynasty.

�valuation du vendeur 5 sur 5 �toiles

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, an elementary guide to knowledge for Chinese children, has been used since the 13th century to teach young minds fundamental concepts. The author arranged approximately 500 different characters into 356 rhyming lines of three characters each. It outlines basic principles of many subjects, including morality, conduct, and cosmology. The text's importance cannot be overstated; every Chinese child historically began their studies with this book. Serious students today still commit it to memory, and scholars have published commentaries. Some of the text is indeed beyond a child's comprehension. It has also proven challenging for foreign translators. This book is significant not just as a teaching tool but also as a reflection of Confucian thought. The author's focus on ethical and social values permeates the text, underscoring the importance of morality, duty, and the five constant virtues. This emphasis on moral conduct within a social context has had a profound impact on Chinese culture and society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781333749378_0
