Features: Yao Jichuan's compilation of classical Chinese prose is divided into thirteen categories. I slightly modified it into eleven categories:
- Discourses
- Lyrics and Poems
- Prefaces and Postfaces
- Imperial Edicts
- Memorial Essays
- Letters
- Eulogies and Funerals
- Biographies and Genealogies
The above nine categories are the same as those of Yao's.
- Complimentary Prefaces (a category Yao included but I did not).
- Narratives and Records (a category I included but Yao did not).
- Odes and Encomiums
- Edicts and Inscriptions (categories Yao included, which I attached to the lower part of Lyrics and Poems).
- Epitaphs and Biographies (categories Yao included, which I attached to the lower part of Biographies and Genealogies).
