Summary "桯史" by Ke Yue is a historical account that appears to be written during the early dynasty period in China, likely spanning the late medieval to early modern era. This book explores historical events, cultural observations, and philosophical reflections, intertwining cosmic beliefs and statecraft. The narrative delves into the complexity of governance, the significance of rituals, and the intertwining of lineage and morality. The text recounts a series of events and anecdotes centered around individuals in power and their interactions with spiritual phenomena. It includes discussions on the significance of ancestral veneration, the importance of auspicious omens in governance, and the reflection of societal values through personal stories. Through various characters, such as ministers and military leaders, it highlights the essence of wisdom, leadership, and the perception of destiny within the context of history. Each section reflects on different aspects of the sociopolitical landscape, ultimately weaving a rich tapestry of insights relevant to rulers, scholars, and the general populace of that era.
