西
In antiquity the Son of Heaven and the feudal lords all kept state histories to record words and deeds; in later ages affairs multiplied, and the practice grew ever more elaborate. From the Xia and Yin dynasties upward, the left scribe recorded speech and the right scribe recorded events. Under Zhou the Grand Scribe, Junior Scribe, Internal Scribe, External Scribe, and Imperial Censor divided these duties among themselves, and the states of the feudal lords likewise appointed historiographers. The Discourses of the States and the Spring and Autumn cite the chronicles of Zhou and the documents of Zheng; tracing the events, it seems that record-keeping at the time was assigned to separate offices, and that these were later combined and compiled into comprehensive historical writings. Afterward the realm declined into disorder and the historiographers were abolished; Qin destroyed the institutions of the former kings, and no trace of the old system remained. It was not until the reign of Emperor Wu of Han that the office of Grand Historian was first established and Sima Tan was appointed to it to oversee its duties. At that time all provincial reports from throughout the realm were first sent to the Grand Historian and a copy to the Chancellor; surviving texts and ancient events—none failed to reach them. Tan then drew upon the Mr. Zuo, the Discourses of the States, the Genealogical Records, the Intrigues of the Warring States, and the Annals of Chu and Han, continuing the narrative from where they left off to form a school of history in his own right. When Tan died, his son Qian also became Grand Historian and carried on his father's design. Beginning with the Yellow Emperor and ending with the Han dynasty, it comprised twelve basic annals, ten tables, eight treatises, thirty hereditary houses, and seventy arrayed biographies—this work was called the Records of the Grand Historian. After Qian's death, enthusiasts also wrote histories in considerable number, but most were shallow and unworthy to succeed him. In Later Han, Ban Biao of Fufeng appended several dozen chapters of continuation and also criticized errors in the earlier work. When Biao died, Emperor Ming ordered his son Gu to continue and complete his father's intent. He held that the eras of Tang, Yu, and the Three Dynasties each had their own canonical records, whereas what Sima Qian recorded placed the Han dynasty after the hundred kings—this was not the proper principle. Therefore he began with Emperor Gaozu and ended with the execution of Emperor Ping and Wang Mang, producing twelve annals, eight tables, ten treatises, and sixty-nine biographies. He devoted himself to the work with concentrated thought for more than twenty years. In the early Jianchu era he first submitted his memorial together with the annals and biographies, but the ten treatises were never completed. After Gu's death, the court at last ordered Madame Cao to continue and complete the work. Earlier, Emperor Ming had summoned Gu to serve as Clerk of the Orchid Terrace; together with senior scholars Chen Zong, Yin Min, Meng Ji, and others, they completed the Basic Annals of Emperor Guangwu. Gu was promoted to Gentleman and put in charge of collating the secret archives. Gu compiled events of Later Han and produced twenty-eight chapters of Biographical Records and Annals. Thereafter Liu Zhen, Liu Yi, Liu Tao, Fu Wuji, and others wrote in succession at the Eastern Pavilion; their work was called the Records of Han. When the Three Kingdoms stood in tripartite rivalry, Wei as well as Wu each had historiographers. In Jin times, Chen Shou of Ba commandery edited and compiled the affairs of the Three Kingdoms: only the Wei emperor received annals, while meritorious ministers and the rulers of Wu and Shu were all given biographies; still arranged by state and category, the work was called the Records of the Three Kingdoms. After Shou died, Fan Ying, Grand Rectifier of Liang Province, submitted a memorial reporting the matter; the emperor ordered the governor of Henan and the magistrate of Luoyang to go to Shou's home and copy it. From this time onward there were authors of historical works everywhere, all taking Ban Gu and Sima Qian as models and treating their works as standard histories; authors became especially numerous. Histories of a single dynasty numbered as many as several dozen schools. Only the Records of the Grand Historian and the Book of Han were handed down from master to pupil, and both had explanatory commentaries. The Records of the Three Kingdoms and Fan Ye's Book of Later Han, though they have pronunciation guides and commentaries, are recent works and can be understood upon reading. In Liang times those who mastered the Book of Han included Liu Xian and Wei Leng; in Chen times there was Yao Cha; in Sui times there were Bao Kai and Xiao Gai—all were renowned masters. Transmitters of the Records of the Grand Historian were very few. Now, arranged by period, they are gathered and compiled to supplement the standard histories.

Since the historiographers were abolished, successive authors all took Ban Gu and Sima Qian as their standard. Beginning with Emperor Xian of Han, who greatly loved the classics, finding Ban Gu's Book of Han too verbose and hard to abridge, he ordered Xun Yue of Yingchuan to compose in the style of the Zuo Tradition of the Spring and Autumn, producing the Annals of Han in thirty chapters. Its words were concise yet its events detailed, its arguments often elegant, and it circulated widely in the world. In the first year of the Taikang era of Jin, a man of Ji commandery excavated the tomb of King Xiang of Wei and obtained ancient bamboo-slip books written in tadpole script. The excavators paid them no heed, and they were often scattered and disordered. The emperor ordered Xun Xu, Director of the Secretariat, and He Qiao, Director of the Masters of Writing, to arrange them into fifteen sections in eighty-seven scrolls. Much was miscellaneous, fragmentary, strange, and absurd, and could not be reliably understood; only the Book of Changes and the Chronological Annals were most clearly distinguished. Its upper and lower sections of the Book of Changes are exactly the same as the present text. The Chronological Annals all use the first month of the Xia calendar, establishing yin as the year's beginning; they begin with the royal affairs of the Xia, Yin, and Zhou Three Dynasties, without distinction among feudal states. They specially record the state of Jin, beginning with the one called Shang Shu, then Marquis Wen, Marquis Zhao, down to Zhuang Bo of Quwo, ending with the destruction of Jin. They record Wei affairs alone, down to King Ai of Wei, whom they call "the present king." It is essentially the historical records of the state of Wei. Their writings are all arranged chronologically in sequence, and the text greatly resembles the Spring and Autumn Classic. Most of the events recorded accord with the Spring and Autumn and Mr. Zuo. Scholars therefore took the Spring and Autumn as the correct method of ancient historiography, and in their writings mostly followed the Spring and Autumn form. Now, arranged by period and narrated in sequence to show the distinctions among authors, these are called ancient histories.

Since Qin abolished the ancient script, texts and records were lost and scattered. At the beginning of Han the Intrigues of the Warring States was recovered; it records the stratagems of the wandering persuaders of the Warring States period. Afterward Lu Jia composed the Annals of Chu and Han to narrate the overthrow of Qin and Xiang Yu. There was also the Record of the Extinction of Yue, traditionally attributed to Zigong. In Later Han, Zhao Ye also wrote the Spring and Autumn of Wu and Yue. Their arrangement of words and comparison of events all differ from the Spring and Autumn, the Records of the Grand Historian, and the Book of Han; they were likely written hastily and are not proper historical records. In the eras of Emperors Ling and Xian, the realm fell into great disorder and the historiographers lost their regular posts. Erudite men, pitying this abolition, each recorded what they had seen and heard to preserve what would otherwise be lost. Afterward many talented men admired this example, and authors became extremely numerous. Moreover, since Later Han many scholars copied and extracted from old histories to make books of their own, some beginning with the Human Sovereign, some ending in recent times—each according to his intent, yet without proper form. There were also alley tales, abstruse, strange, absurd, and fabulous, whose truth or falsehood could not be determined. Yet they mostly concern the affairs of sovereigns and emperors; enlightened gentlemen must gather them broadly and survey them widely to distill their essentials, and so they are preserved in full—these are called miscellaneous histories.

The Tradition says, "Without a gentleman, how can there be a state?" From the Yongjia disorders of the Jin onward, the imperial reins were lost, and many regional rulers throughout the Nine Provinces occupied the Central Plain. Some upheld the orthodox calendar, while others falsely assumed names and titles; yet their rulers and ministers were also diligent in loyalty and righteousness and in the work of ordering states and nurturing the people. The ministers and subjects of the time also each made records. After Later Wei conquered and pacified the various states and held Song and Hua, it first ordered Situ Cui Hao to broadly gather old accounts and compile the state history. The records and notes of the various states were all gathered in the imperial archives. During the Erzhu disturbances, all of these were scattered and lost. Now we list those presently extant and call them hegemon histories.

The In antiquity the government of the court issued commands and orders; and the hundred offices received them, stored them in the official archives, each maintained their duties, and preserved them without forgetting. The Spring and Autumn Tradition says, "I looked in the various old archives"—this refers to such matters—as cataloged here. The Offices of Zhou: the Imperial Censor oversees the laws of court governance; the Grand Historian oversees the covenants and contracts of the myriad people and the certificates of debt, to assist in governing the realm—as cataloged here. The Thus the hundred offices and various bureaus each stored their own affairs, and the Grand Historian's duty was to gather and oversee them all. The During the Han dynasty, Xiao He established statutes and ordinances, Zhang Cang formulated rules and regulations, and Shushun Tong fixed ritual protocols; and categories branched and schools divided, and institutions gradually expanded. The Early in the Jin, ordinances and below amounted to more than nine hundred scrolls; and Emperor Wu of Jin ordered Jia Chong, General of Chariots and Cavalry, to draw broadly on the Confucian scholars, select the essentials, and add ten articles to the code. The remainder, insufficient for enduring transmission, became statutes; and what implemented institutions became ordinances; and what defined forms and rules became precedents—each returned to its office. The Gentry scholars wrote and recorded these, forming scrolls and chapters, yet they too were lost with the passing of dynasties. The Now, based on what survives, these are called the Old Affairs section.

The In antiquity those who served had their names written on the registers of those they served; and each had separate duties to govern one another. The Offices of Zhou. Thus the Chief Minister oversaw the offices under the Six Ministers in order to manage their administration, while the Censorate kept track of the numbers and order of those holding office. The present Table of the Hundred Offices in the Book of Han lists the affairs of the various posts and records the order of those in office—this too is likely the ancient system—as cataloged here. The At the end of Han, Wang Long, Ying Shao, and others, finding the Table of the Hundred Offices incomplete, composed the Exegesis of Han Offices, Han Office Protocols, and similar books. The Afterward this continued, but in standard histories' tables and treatises the names of the hundred officials in office were no longer recorded. The Gentry scholars sometimes took books of office names and ranks, wrote and recorded them, and circulated them separately in the world. The After Song and Qi their books grew ever more numerous, yet scrolls and chapters piled up in fragments and were easily lost and scattered; and many were too trivial to be worth recording, and so were deleted—as cataloged here. The Those that survive and merit attention are compiled into the Officials section.

The rise of ritual protocols has a long origin. From ruler and minister, father and son, to the six kin and nine clans, each had distinctions of superior and inferior, close and distant. In nourishing the living and sending off the dead, offering condolences and relief, and giving congratulations and celebrations, there were rules of movement and ceremonial deportment. From Tang and Yu upward, these were divided into three; under Zhou they were accordingly made five. The Offices of Zhou. At that time the statutes and institutions were all complete and could be followed and put into practice. When Zhou declined, the feudal lords cut away and discarded its records. By Qin, they were further burned and removed. When Han arose, Shusun Tong fixed the court rites; in Emperor Wu's time the sacrifice to Houtu at Fenyin first began; in Emperor Cheng's time the northern and southern suburban sacrifices were first fixed, and the regulations gradually became complete. The Later Han also had Cao Bao fix the Han rites; thereafter the tradition was continued, and each generation produced new works. Yet the old statutes were still fragmentary and deficient; each followed what he had seen, disputes arose between one side and another, and they filled chapters and documents. In later generations, however, affairs were often troubled and matters required adaptation; some were regulations for a single time, not long-enduring principles, so writers took only their major outlines and compiled them into historical treatises. Some suffered from shallowness and narrowness, and some erred through incomplete understanding, so they could not fully exhaust the essential meaning. Surviving texts and remaining affairs were also often scattered and lost. Now I gather those still extant and make them the chapter on ritual protocols.

Penal law is what the former kings used to punish crimes and evils and regulate the unruly. The Book of Documents says that in the age of Tang and Yu the five punishments had corresponding garments, while the Xiahou clan fixed five regular punishments and three thousand articles. The Offices of Zhou says: the Minister of Crime administered the three codes by which the states were punished; The Director of Punishments administered the laws of the five punishments and attached crimes to the myriad people; the Grand Scribe also used canons and laws to assess the states; The Internal Scribe held the state's laws and used them to examine government affairs. The Spring and Autumn Tradition says, "In the nine punishments, do not forget." Yet the making of penal books had long existed. They were probably kept in government offices because there was fear that, if people knew the grounds of dispute, they would become casual about offending. By its end, feelings were indulged beyond the law, and punishments became usurping and excessive. By Qin, this was made harsher with cruelty and oppression, and the correct punishments of the former kings perished. At the beginning of Han, Xiao He fixed the laws in nine chapters; afterward they were gradually changed and augmented, and from Statute A downward they overflowed the shelves and storehouses. At the beginning of Jin, Jia Chong and Du Yu abridged and fixed them, producing laws, ordinances, and precedents.

The historians of antiquity necessarily made broad records, not only of the ruler's actions. The Offices of Zhou. The Spring and Autumn Tradition says, "Guo Zhong and Guo Shu were the younger sons of Wang Ji; their merits were in the royal house, stored in the alliance archive." When Zang He rebelled, Jisun ordered the Grand Historian to summon the officer in charge of evil ministers and bind him by covenant. The Offices of Zhou. The Grand Historian, Interior Scribe, and Director of Accounts, and all six offices, received duplicates and stored them. Thus, when the king punished or rewarded, the matter was fully recorded and announced to the spirits; the hundred officials and historical ministers all stored the writings. Therefore, from high ministers and feudal lords down to the various officers, traces of good and evil all gathered in the historians' offices. And in the administration of the village overseer, whenever the common people were assembled, he recorded those who were reverent, diligent, responsible, and compassionate; the clan instructor each month recorded those who were filial, fraternal, harmonious, peaceful, and learned; the district chief annually recorded those who had virtue, conduct, ways, and arts, and submitted them to the district grand officer. Every three years, at the great comparison, the district grand officer examined their virtue, conduct, ways, and arts, recommended the worthy and capable, and presented the records. The king bowed twice and received them, placed them in the Heavenly Repository, and the Interior Scribe made a duplicate. For this reason, even men dwelling in poverty and obscurity necessarily had their words and conduct made known, and all had historical biographies. After the historians' offices fell vacant and severed, their Way decayed; at the beginning of Han there first were the covenant written in red and the covenant of the white horse. Emperor Wu followed Dong Zhongshu's advice and first recommended the worthy and good and literary scholars. The accounting documents from all under Heaven were first submitted to the Grand Historian, and matters good and evil were all completely gathered. Sima Qian and Ban Gu compiled them into completed works, so ministers who served as arms and legs and aides, and men who upheld righteousness with outstanding bearing, all had records. The Records of the Grand Historian, Book of Han, Records of the Historian; and 《漢書》; and 《漢書》; and 《漢書》; and 《漢書》. The Arrayed 《列仙圖》, Arrayed 《列仙》, Arrayed Worthies, Arrayed Women, 《列士》; and 《列女》; and 《列女》; and 《列女》, 《列女》; and 《列女》; and 《列女》; and 《列女》. Under Guangwu of the Later Han, an edict first ordered Nanyang to compile accounts of its customs; therefore Pei and Sanfu had prefaces on elders and men of integrity, and Lu and Lujiang had appreciations of famous and virtuous former worthies. Books on commanderies and kingdoms were made from this. The Arrayed Strange, Gao Worthies Biography, 《列異》, Wei; 《高士傳》; 《高士傳》; 《高士傳》. Because these works followed their subject categories, many authors continued one after another; the titles grew ever broader, and they were also mixed with empty, extravagant, strange, and absurd tales. Tracing them to their source, they too are perhaps a lesser branch of the historian's duties. The writers selected and excerpted the essentials. The prefaces and appreciations for Lu, Pei, and Sanfu are all lost, and later works too have mostly fallen into fragmentary loss. Now we take those that survive, arrange them by category, and call them miscellaneous biographies.

In ancient times, when the former kings transformed the people, the lands of the five regions, what their winds and qi produced, their hardness and softness, lightness and heaviness, food and clothing, each had its own nature and could not be shifted or changed. Therefore they delimited and ordered all under Heaven, assessed what the lands were suited for, understood their advantages and harms, reached their intentions and communicated their desires, unified their governance and cultivated their teaching. Thus it says: "Broad valleys and great rivers have different systems; people dwelling among them have different customs." The Calligraphy, Shu; Shu; Shu; Shu; Shu; Shu. Under Zhou, the Summer-office Director of Frontiers was charged with establishing maps of the Nine Provinces, knowing thoroughly the obstacles of mountains, forests, rivers, and marshes, and communicating their roads. The Reciter of Instructions in the offices of the earth was in charge of regional records, using them to announce matters to be observed and to know local customs. The Guardian of Patterns in the spring offices used stars and terrestrial divisions to distinguish the lands of the Nine Provinces and the regions enfeoffed, in order to observe baleful and auspicious signs. The Director of Regions in the summer offices was in charge of maps and lands under Heaven; distinguished the peoples of the four Yi, eight Man, nine Mo, five Rong, and six Di, together with their resources and the numbers of the nine grains and six domestic animals; fully knew advantages and harms; distinguished the states of the Nine Provinces; and caused them to share a common order. The Minister of Education was in charge of maps of the state's lands and of teaching its people, to assist the king in pacifying states and domains; he fully knew the extent of the Nine Provinces and the measures of breadth and length, distinguished the names and products of mountains, forests, rivers, marshes, hills, mounds, plains, and wetlands, and knew the laws for land accounting. Thus these affairs were divided among many offices, while the Chief Minister, who established the six canons of the state, in fact oversaw them. The Grand Historian used the canons to check the Chief Minister's governance; those records were probably also collectively the responsibility of the historians' office. At the beginning of Han, Xiao He obtained Qin maps and documents, and therefore knew the strategic places under Heaven. The Classic of Mountains and Seas, Classic of Mountains and Seas; Classic of Mountains and Seas. In Emperor Wu's time, after the accounting documents had been submitted to the Grand Historian, the geographical treatises of commanderies and kingdoms were also certainly included among them. But what Sima Qian recorded only described rivers and canals. The Land Principles Record, Dili Zhi; Dili Zhi; Dili Zhi. It gave orderly accounts of provinces, states, commanderies, counties, mountains, rivers, terrain, local customs, stellar divisions, regional climates, territorial extent, and household and population figures, comparable to the records in the ancient 《禹貢》 and 《周官》. After this, writers had narrow views and superficial learning, could not reach far, and merely recorded the names of provinces and commanderies. During Jin, Zhi Yu drew on the 《禹貢》 and 《周官》 to compile the 《畿服經》. It fully detailed provinces, commanderies, counties, field divisions, boundaries, affairs, settlements, mountains, waterways, villages, roads, distances, soils, fields, products, customs, former worthies, and old traditions. It comprised 170 scrolls and is now lost. Scholars, drawing on their own travels, also made records, but they could not form the structure of a school.

Books on clan names have origins that go back far. The Documents says, "distinguish birth and classify kin." The Tradition says, "The Son of Heaven establishes virtue; in accordance with birth he grants the surname." The Zhou household's junior historians fixed lines of descent and distinguished senior and junior ancestral lines; this too was a historian's office. When Qin annexed all under Heaven, it cut away the old traces, and descendants of dukes and marquises lost their original lineages. The Genealogical Records, 《世本》, Han; 《世本》; 《世本》.

After Later Wei moved to Luoyang, there were eight clans and ten surnames, all from the imperial lineage. There were also thirty-six clans, those of the various states that had followed Wei; and ninety-two surnames whose lineages had served for generations as tribal chiefs; all became people of Luoyang in Henan. Among the Chinese gentry, their lineages were ranked, with great surnames within the four seas, commandery surnames, province surnames, and county surnames. When Grand Ancestor of Zhou entered the Passes, he made descendants of the various surnames who had merit into heads of their lineages, and he also had genealogical records compiled to record what they inherited. They also took the provinces within the passes as their ancestral seats. 《鄧氏官譜》, Clan 《族姓昭穆記》, 《族姓昭穆記》; 《族姓昭穆記》, Jin-as cataloged here. The rest, too, have mostly been lost. Now we record those that presently survive and make them the chapter on genealogies.

The In antiquity, since the historiographers oversaw the canonical texts, there were likely catalogs serving as their framework; and the system is buried and extinguished, and cannot be known again. The Confucius edited the Documents, separately providing prefaces that each explained the origin of the author. The two versions of the Odes by Han and Mao are similar in this regard—as cataloged here. The In Han times, Liu Xiang's Separate Records and Liu Xin's Seven Summaries analyzed categories and currents, each with its section; tracing the events, this is likely the ancient system. The After this, people could no longer distinguish their currents and categories, and recorded only book titles. The Men of broad learning, vexed by this confusion, therefore had Wang Jian compose the Seven Records and Ruan Xiaoxu compose the Seven Catalogs—both circulated separately. The In general form they followed Liu Xiang and Liu Xin, yet fell far short of them. The catalogs of earlier ages have also mostly been lost and scattered—as cataloged here. The Now, gathering what survives, they are compiled into the Bibliographic Records section.

In all, the histories recorded here comprise 817 titles, in 13,264 scrolls. Counting lost works, the total is 874 titles, in 16,558 scrolls.

The Historiographers must seek men of broad learning, strong memory, perspicacious understanding, and far-reaching insight to occupy their posts; and the hundred offices and myriad duties all depend upon them. The Therefore words of earlier sages and deeds of the past—none escaped their knowledge; celestial patterns and terrestrial forms—none escaped their scrutiny; the records of human affairs—none escaped their comprehension—as cataloged here. The Within they oversee the eight handles to instruct the king's governance; and without they wield the six canons to assist official administration. The They write of beauty to manifest goodness and record evil to hand down warning; and they encompass divine transformation, illuminate splendid virtue, exhaust the utmost profundity of sages, and detail the tireless effort of an age. The Since the historiographers were abolished long ago, the Han dynasty largely followed the old ways, and Ban Gu and Sima Qian continued them. The Since Wei and Jin, the practice has declined ever further. The posts of Nan and Dong were filled by those enriched by salary and leisure; and the offices of Zheng and Jun were rarely granted on the basis of talent. Hence a proverb of the Liang era said, "If you don't fall off the carriage, you become a Compiler; and if you claim to feel unwell, you become a Secretary." The Thus idle parasites strutted above the Extended Pavilion, while men who set forth words wielded their brushes beneath thatched roofs. The Records of a single age numbered as many as several dozen schools; and traditions differed, what was heard and seen conflicted, principle lost the mean, and language departed from essential form. The This caused the virtue of sincerity and respect to be lacking in the canonical texts, and the talent of loyalty and diligence to be untransmitted in the bamboo records. The This is the source of the defect. The Ban Gu classified the Records of the Grand Historian under the Spring and Autumn; now expanding its categories, there are thirteen types in all, separately forming the History section.
