Summary "古文觀止" by Chengquan Wu and Dazhi Wu is a historical collection of classical Chinese texts written in the late 17th to early 18th century. This work compiles significant essays, narratives, and philosophical discussions from ancient Chinese history, aiming to preserve and present China's literary heritage. The focus is on exemplary texts that illustrate ethical and political principles. The opening of this collection introduces various accounts from the "Zuo Zhuan," chronicling the events in the states during the Spring and Autumn period of Chinese history. It notably features conflicts involving key historical figures, such as Zheng Wang and historical advice from figures like Shi Hu and Zi Can regarding governance, morality, and military strategy. Throughout these narratives, themes of loyalty, ethics, and the complexities of leadership emerge, setting the stage for deeper political and moral reflections found in subsequent chapters.
