Publish Date: 1998-10-01
Features: Although there are many extant chronologies of Zhu Xi, their editorial formats and levels of detail vary. Some handwritten copies even include additional materials such as commendatory inscriptions, genealogical lineages, and the origins of Neo-Confucianism. However, when it comes to their core content, they remain largely similar with minor differences. The chronology included in this edition is Wang Ding's Chronology of Zhu Xi with Annotations and Corrections, a Qing-era work. It first introduces the chronology of Zhu Xi, annotations and corrections to the chronology, and Zhu Xi's essential sayings on learning, supplemented by biographical materials.
