| Summary | "夢溪筆談, Volume 01-06" by Kuo Shen is a historical account likely written during the Song Dynasty, around the late 11th to the early 12th century. This work captures the author’s reflections on various aspects of society and governance during his time, exploring themes like governance, rituals, and cultural practices of the Tang and Song dynasties through a compilation of essays and discussions rather than a narrative-driven text. At the start of the volume, the author presents a richly detailed exploration of the state rituals and ceremonies within the imperial court, reflecting on their historical development and the significance of various elements involved in these practices. Kuo Shen questions the order of ceremonies and discusses the rituals tied to the worship of deities at different sites, such as the Qing Gong and Tai Miao, as well as the involvement of scholars and officials in ceremonial duties. The opening portion establishes a tone of inquiry as the author seeks to understand the roots of these customs and the importance they hold in the broader context of governance and cultural identity.
