It is said to have been compiled by the numerous retainers of L&uuml; Buwei \u5415\u4e0d\u97e6, counselor-in-chief of the state of Qin \u79e6. Retainers of nobles during that time were often men of higher education who represented a philosophical school or school of thinkers. They were used not o<em><\/em>nly to entertain their master but also to provide him with useful knowledge or advice in daily politics. There is also the title ofL&uuml;lan \u5415\u89c8 &quot;L&uuml;&#8217;s examinations&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>  The L&uuml;shi chunqiu co<em><\/em>nsists of 8 chapters of examinations (lan \u89c8), 6 chapters of discourses (lun \u8bba), and 16 chapters of almanachs (ji \u7eaa), in 160 parts. In ancient bibliographies it is normally listed among themiscellaneous masters (zajia \u6742\u5bb6), although it co<em><\/em>ntains also Co<em><\/em>nfucian andDaoist thought as well as theories of the nominalists (mingjia \u540d\u5bb6),legalists, Mohists, agro<em><\/em>nomists and the Yin-Yang thinkers. Although theL&uuml;shi chunqiu has been compiled by the hands of many authors the final redaction must have been in the hands of an excellent team, as the whole composition is very co<em><\/em>nsistent and integrative. It covers a vast range of topics, beginning with the seasons, the correspo<em><\/em>nding phenology and the integrative correlation of all appearances in the universe, and treating all different matters in state and society, economy, military, and behaviour. It thus serves as a handbook for a person in a high position to better understand the correlations of all things on earth. The language of theL&uuml;shi chunqiu is very vivid, especially by the use of parables and allegories and the many semi-historical stories reported.<\/p>\n<p>  Contents<\/p>\n<p>  \u7eaa Ji The Almanacs<br \/>  1. \u5b5f\u6625\u7eaa Mengchun The first mo<em><\/em>nth of spring<br \/>  2. \u4ef2\u6625\u7eaa Zho<em><\/em>ngchun The second mo<em><\/em>nth of spring<br \/>  3. \u5b63\u6625\u7eaa Jichun The third mo<em><\/em>nth of spring<br \/>  4. \u5b5f\u590f\u7eaa Mengxia The first mo<em><\/em>nth of summer<br \/>  5. \u4ef2\u590f\u7eaa Zho<em><\/em>ngxia The second mo<em><\/em>nth of summer<br \/>  6. \u5b63\u590f\u7eaa Jixia The third mo<em><\/em>nth of summer<br \/>  7. \u5b5f\u79cb\u7eaa Mengqiu The first mo<em><\/em>nth of autumn<br \/>  8. \u4ef2\u79cb\u7eaa Zho<em><\/em>ngqiu The second mo<em><\/em>nth of autumn<br \/>  9. \u5b63\u79cb\u7eaa Jiqiu The third mo<em><\/em>nth of autumn<br \/>  10. \u5b5f\u51ac\u7eaa Mengdong The first mo<em><\/em>nth of winter<br \/>  11. \u4ef2\u51ac\u7eaa Zho<em><\/em>ngdong The second mo<em><\/em>nth of winter<br \/>  12. \u5b63\u51ac\u7eaa Jidong The third mo<em><\/em>nth of winter<br \/>  \u89c8 Lan The Examinations<br \/>  1.(13.) \u6709\u59cb\u89c8 Youshi The beginning<br \/>  2.(14.) \u5b5d\u884c\u89c8 Xiaoxing Filial conduct<br \/>  3.(15.) \u614e\u5927\u89c8 Shenda Being careful when [the state] is large<br \/>  4.(16.) \u5148\u8bc6\u89c8 Xianshi Foreknowledge<br \/>  5.(17.) \u5ba1\u5206\u89c8 Shenfen On examining divisions [of responsibility]<br \/>  6.(18.) \u5ba1\u5e94\u89c8 Shenying Examining responses<br \/>  7.(19.) \u79bb\u4fd7\u89c8 Lisu Departing from co<em><\/em>nventional [conduct]<br \/>  8.(20.) \u6043\u541b\u89c8 Shijun Relying on rulers<br \/>  \u8bba Lun The Discourses<br \/>  1.(21.) \u5f00\u6625\u8bba Kaichun The opening of spring<br \/>  2.(22.) \u614e\u884c\u8bba Shenxing Being cautious in one&#8217;s conduct<br \/>  3.(23.) \u8d35\u76f4\u8bba Guizhi Valuing straight [talk]<br \/>  4.(24.) \u4e0d\u82df\u8bba Bugou Nothing indecorous<br \/>  5.(25.) \u4f3c\u987a\u8bba Sishun Apparent accord<br \/>  6.(26.) \u58eb\u5bb9\u8bba Shirong The comportment of the scholar-knight<br type=\"_moz\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"chine-tie-zi-nei-rong-zhi-hou\" id=\"chine-148704732\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1889418300638825\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1889418300638825\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"7273022922\" \ndata-ad-layout-key=\"-gw-3+1f-3d+2z\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;The L&uuml;shi chunqiu \u5415\u6c0f\u6625\u79cb &quot;Spring and Autumn of Master L&uuml;&quot; is a collection of treatises on cosmological matters from the<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[46,116],"class_list":["post-8916","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-chinese-reading","tag-examination","tag-historical-stories"],"views":314,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/mm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8916","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/mm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/mm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/mm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/mm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8916"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/mm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8916\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/mm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8916"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/mm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8916"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chinesemoment.com\/mm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8916"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
