Features: The Rites of Zhou (Yili) and the Book of Rites (Liji) have had a profound influence on traditional Chinese society. This book is the first monograph by modern Chinese scholars to conduct a comprehensive and systematic sociological study of these two classics. It holds significant importance for both sociological research and ritual studies, as it broadens new perspectives and opens up new fields. Li Anzai's meticulous selection of historical materials, his well-organized categorization, and his insightful analysis and commentary remain highly valuable references even today.
