The Spring and Autumn Annals
Book • 722
The Spring and Autumn Annals is the official chronicle of the State of Lu, covering a 242-year period from 722 to 481 BCE. It is the earliest surviving Chinese historical text arranged in annals form and is one of the Five Classics of Chinese literature.
The text is known for its terse style, with entries averaging only 10 characters, recording events such as accessions, marriages, deaths, battles, sacrificial rituals, and natural disasters.
Although Confucius did not expound on his philosophical ideas within the text, it is heavily associated with his teachings and has been elaborated upon by various commentaries, most notably the Zuo Zhuan, to provide deeper understanding and context.
