The study of Confucian classics laid the foundation for Chinese culture and also became the baseline for its development. This book is a significant academic work by the renowned Chinese scholar Xu Fuguan, including two major works: The Foundation of the History of Chinese Confucian Classics and The Era of the Establishment of the Zhou Guan and Its Ideological Characteristics. The former establishes a completely new foundation and framework for the history of Chinese Confucian classics by examining the formation and transmission of Confucian classics and the discovery of their meanings in different eras. It encompasses the transmission of Confucian classics and the meanings discovered and recognized in various historical periods. The latter, focusing on the structure and ideological features of the Zhou Guan (also known as the Rites of Zhou), serves as a monumental work for those studying ancient Chinese thought history, official systems, and classical studies. It is a reliable and authoritative monograph. The study of Confucian classics laid the foundation for Chinese culture and also became the baseline for its development.
