Abstract
Before the invention of the printing press in Tang Dynasty, many intellectual and
literary works of importance were not preserved. Those studying theWei-Jing era are
often set back by the lack of reference material.
While the period was politically unstable, its intellectual development was
noteworthy, as could be inferred by what was documented.
To advance our studies in this area we need to supplement more details and define a
more precise chronicle of the era’s intellectual development. To do so we need to
capture all available information and set up the Archives For Research. A General
History is a useful source book as such:
Besides implementing many concepts and principles of organizing historic material,
it made mention and comments of a large store of contemporary writing, much of
which is no longer available. It also touched on philosophical questions and discussed
several literary issues as they relate to the task of documenting history, referencing
popular books of the time. All this is worth sorting out and making available for
2
related research. It may yet prove to be even more valuable a manuscript than Shi
Shuo Xin Yu.
