"Sima Qian (first century BCE), the author of Record of the Historian (Shiji), is China's earliest and best-known historian, and his "Letter to Ren An" is the most famous letter in Chinese history. In the letter, Sima Qian explains his decision to finish his life's work, the first comprehensive history of China, instead of honorably committing suicide following his castration for "deceiving the emperor." In the twentieth and twenty-first ..."
"What seems most strange in the Letter is that, immediately following the list of
authors of the past, Sima Qian repeats the two examples of Zuo Qiuming and
Sunzi. Strikingly, he says first that “Zuo Qiu lost his vision” and “Sunzi, after his

court. So they withdrew ..."

"English summary: Dynastic historiography in China can be traced back all the way to the second century BC. The standard model according to which all 24 basic histories were written was developed by Ssu-ma T'an (probably around 110 BC) and his son Ssu-ma Ch'ien (probably either 145 or 135-87 BC). These two historians wrote the first great Chinese work that was supposed to summarize the history of the known world from its origins up until ..."
