Life

[edit]

Li Zhuan was from Fu County ( phù huyện ), Zitong Commandery ( Tử Đồng quận ), which is around present-dayMianyang,Sichuan.His father, Li Ren ( Lý nhân ), whosecourtesy namewas Dexian ( đức hiền ), was a close friend ofYin Mo,who was from the same county as him. Li Ren and Yin Mo left their nativeYi Province(covering present-day Sichuan andChongqing) on a tour ofJing Province(covering present-dayHubeiandHunan), where they studied under the tutelage ofSima HuiandSong Zhong( Tống trung; also known as Song Zhongzi Tống trọng tử ).[2]

Li Zhuan inherited his father's knowledge. Together with Yin Mo, he extensively studied theFive ClassicsandHundred Schools of Thought,and became a learned scholar. Apart from academia and philosophy, he was also well-versed in various arts and crafts, mathematics, divination, medicine, archery and mechanics.[3]

Li Zhuan started his career in theShu Hanstate as an assistant scribe ( thư tá ) before becoming a clerk ( lệnh sử ) to the Masters of Writing ( thượng thư ). In 238, after the Shu emperorLiu Shandesignated his eldest sonLiu Xuanascrown prince,he appointed Li Zhuan as a bodyguard ( con vợ lẽ ) to Liu Xuan. Later, he reassigned/promoted Li Zhuan to various positions, including Supervisor ( bộc dạ ), Attendant Counsellor ( trung tán đại phu ) and Right General of the Household ( hữu trung lang tướng ). Li Zhuan's main task, however, was to educate Liu Xuan. The crown prince also favoured Li Zhuan for his multiple talents and extensive knowledge.[4]Despite his wealth of knowledge, Li Zhuan was not highly regarded or respected by his peers because of his frivolous behaviour and tendency to ridicule and scorn others.[5]

Throughout his life as a scholar, Li Zhuan wrote commentaries, guides, annotations, etc., to a number of ancient texts, including theYijing,Book of Documents,Mao Commentary,Etiquette and Ceremonial,Book of Rites,Rites of Zhou,Zuo Zhuan,andTaixuan Zhigui( quá huyền chỉ về ). His writings followed the styles ofJia KuiandMa Rongrather than that ofZheng Xuan.Although he had never met his contemporaryWang Subefore, his works and interpretations of Confucianism turned out to be similar to Wang Su's.[6]He died in the middle of the Jingyao era (258–263) of Liu Shan's reign.[7]

One of Li Zhuan's peers, Chen Shu ( trần thuật ), who was fromHanzhong Commanderyand whosecourtesy namewas Shenbo ( thân bá ), was also well-known for being knowledgeable and multi-talented. Chen Shu wrote the seven-chapterShi Bu( thích bộ ),Yizhou Qijiu Zhuan( ích bộ kỳ cũ truyền ) andYizhou Qijiu Zhi( ích bộ kỳ cũ chí ), and served as the administrator of threecommanderiesin Shu.[8]
