A Bibliographical Study of Ching-Ch'u-Sui-Shih-Chi (荊楚歳時記) I
Full text linkChing-Ch’u-Sui-Shih-Chi has been studied by several scholars, —namely, Mr. Yü Chi’a-his (余嘉錫), Mr. Hisanori Wada and others. By having criticized these previous works I have drawn the following conclusions:(1) Under the Liang Dynasty Tsung Lin (宗懍) who lived in the former half of the 6th century A. D. wrote about the habits and customs of the people inhabiting the territories along the middle of Yang-tse River. The original title of this work was Ching-Ch’u-Chi (lit. 荊楚記), but not Ching-Ch’u-Sui-Shih-Chi.(2) It has been held that under the influence of the book entitled “Sui-Shih-Chi” (歳事記) which was published in the T’ang period, Ching-Ch’u-Chi was called “Ching-Ch’u-Sui-Shih-Chi” already before the publication of “Nihonkoku Genzaisho-Mokuroku” (at the end of the 9th century). I cannot agree with this opinion. It is more probable that the title, “Ching-Ch’u-Sui-Shih-Chi,” was given to the commentary of Ching-Ch’u-Chi by Tu Kung-shan (杜公瞻) of Sui Dynasty.(3) In Tu’s commentary there are some instances that the text of Ching-Ch’u-Chi are adopted without any modification. In general, however, expressions were altered, new items were added, and Tu’s explanations were interpolated so that a more systematic form was assumed. The result is a kind of encyclopaedia concerning annual functions.(4) It seems that in proportion as the commentary was widely read, the riof Tsung Lin also came to be called “Ching-Ch’u-Sui-Shih-Chi.”(5) That Tsung Lin’s original and Tu’s commentary were brought over to Japan during the T’ang period can be confirmed by “Nihonkoku-Genzaisho-Mokuroku,” but there are not a few questions about the description in this bibliography.journal articl

On the ‘Authors’ of the Shih chi
Full text linkIt seems a popular thesis in post-war Japan th Ssŭ-ma Ch’ien 司馬遷 must have written the Shih chi an individual work after his “conversion” caused by his serious experiences through the Li Ling 李陵 trial. There was a long traditional background in Japan in which the Shih chi had been thought a beautiful literary work.However, judging from the historical point of view, we cannot support the thesis because of our present research of the Autobiography of the Grand Historian 太史公自序, especially through the analysis of the connection between the Ch’un Ch’iu 春秋 and Confucius as a historical forerunner. In 1951, Ku Chieh-kang 顧頡剛 published a brilliant article on Ssŭ-ma T’an 司馬談 as a founder of the main plan and editorial structure of the Shih Chi, and we can recognize Ku’s assertions through comparative analysis on the Biography of Ssŭ-ma Ch’ien of the Han Shu 漢書司馬遷伝 with the Shih Chi.Then, we can make some proposals about ‘authors’ of the Shih Chi as below.1. On the ‘authors’ of the Shih Chi, we must point out Ssŭ-ma T’an as the first main planner and editor as well as Ssŭ-ma Ch’ien, who completed the work after his father’s death.2. Moreover, about the views of ancient Chinese history and Confucius’s Ch’un Ch’iu in the Shih Chi,the ‘authors’ of the Shih Chi had fluctuated between ‘Shu’ (述=recording for the glorifying of the past and present period）, and ‘Tsuo’ (作=holy writing of the prospects for the future), and these fluctuating attitudes of the ‘authors’ were reflected in the contradictory passages in the Autobiography of the Grand Historian.3. Finally, the traditional Chinese method of historical writings, used typically by the ‘authors’ of the Shih Chi, must have been called rather an annotated editing, ‘mosaic’ as Chavanne’s term, than a historical writing in modern use.journal articl

[[alternative]]Hu Shih and His Shui-ching Chu Scholarship
No full text[[abstract]]For a long time, people do not understand why Hu Shih (1891-1962) spent his last twenty years studying the Chinese classic work, Shui-ching chu (Commentary on the Classic of the Waterways). Was this ambitious academic project a departure from his early mission as a westernizer? Was the Shui-ching chu his ivory tower? Why did he try so hard to prove that Tai Chen (1724-1777) was innocent of plagiarism?
This paper will attempt to answer a number of such questions which have puzzled scholars about Hu Shih, the Shui-ching chu, and Ch'ing scholarship through a case study of the Shui-ching chu controversy. The focus of the controversy is the question of whether Tai Chen plagiarized Chao I-Ch'ing (1709-1764) or Ch'uan Tsu-wang (1705-1755). Hu argued that Tai arrived at identical results as Chao and Ch' Qan independently because these three mid-Ch'ing scholars employed the same research method of textual criticism.
This research indicates that Hu's main intention in studying the Shui-ching chu was not to defend the cultural heritage of his homeland, to prove his ability in reading classics, to hide himself from the punishing reality, or to fight for justice. Rather, he used this issue as an ideological weapon to fight with cultural conservatives and to advocate the aspects of modernity, such as objectivity and scientific spirit, that he found in Ch'ing scholarship. Tai Chen was a hero to Hu because he represented a cultural heritage which could be utilized in modern China for an epis-temological and methodological revolution.
Hu's scholarship on the Shui-ching chu is controversial. His collation and examination of more than sixty different editions of the text was perhaps his most important contribution to Shui-ching chu studies. No one has examined the Shui-ching chu controversy more comprehensively than Hu. However, Hu did not make a real breakthrough. His handwritten manuscripts are loosely organized and badly written. He shifted the attention of scholars away from more important areas in Shut-eking chu studies. His research was also far from being neutral and objective. He was too lenient toward Tai Chen and too harsh on Tai's critics. He also failed to respond directly to the unfavorable arguments raised by Tai's critics.
