Fire and rain: A look at Shen Nung the Divine Farmer) and his ties with Yen Ti (the)
Up to this point I have attempted to show how Shen Nung was portrayed in late Warring States and early Han texts. I have also reviewed what we know about Nung (or Chu) and Lieh Shan shih, Keng-fu (Plough Father), and T'ien-tsu (Field Ancestor), since it may be one or all four of these figures that comes to be known as Shen Nung.We can argue nothing for certain on this, and certainly T'ien-tsu in the Shih, was, we assume, a god of the Chou. But th…
The Three-Bodied Shun and the Completion of Creation
Students of ancient China learn early on the story of Yaoand Shun. The great emperor Yao (traditional reign dates, 2356-2255 B.C.) chose the virtuous Shun as his replacement over his own son Tan Chu. Shun was the model of filial piety: when his parents and brother tried to kill him a number of times, he saw the fault as his own and tried all the harder to win their love and approval
On the whereabouts and identity of the place called 'K'ung-Sang' (Hollow Mulberry) in early Chinese mythology
One of the places that plays a role in a number of myths and legends that survive from ancient China is the place called K'ung-sang, Hollow Mulberry. Confucius is said to have been born in a place called K'ung-sang, and Yi Yin, the man who served as chief minister to T'ang, founder of the Shang or Yin dynasty (traditional reign dates, 1766-1753 b.c.) was born in anactualhollow mulberry tree. By force of the Confucius connexion, commentaries often…

Philosophy and Argumentation in Third-Century China: The Essays of Hsi K'ang
A valuable source of information on third-century Chinese argumentation and thought, the essays are eloquent, clear, and to the point; humorous at times; philosophically subtle; and psychologically perceptive. They treat matters of perennial concern--immortality, the nature of morality, the relation of music to emotion--and should be of interest to specialist and nonspecialist alike. Originally published in 1983. The Princeton Legacy Library uses…

On the chapter divisions in the Lao-tzu
The Ma-wang-tui texts of Lao-tzu have seemingly confirmed two points long held to be true by many scholars: (1) that the text from an early date, if not right from the outset, was divided into two parts; and (2) that-while it is not claimed that the Ma-wang-tui texts represent the original text-it was not originally divided into chapters. This latter conclusion is open to debate since, although there are neither chapter numbers nor names in the M…
