Book of Family Names One Thousand Character Primer (ePub)

The Book of Family Names and One Thousand Character Primer are reading materials of Chinese ancient civilization that are relatively easy to understand among all Chinese traditional enlightenment teaching materials. The Book of Family Names is an article on Chinese family names, and it adopts the four-character style to arrange these family names, thus forming rhyming sentences. Though its content does not have unity and coherence in writing, it still plays a significant role in such aspects as the inheritance of the culture of Chinese family names and the recognition of Chinese characters, which also proves to be an important reason why it can be handed down for thousands of years. Compiled by Zhou Xingsi, assistant minister and Jishizhong (name of a senior official in feudal China) of Liang Dynasty during Northern-Southern Dynasties, One Thousand Character Primer is a literary composition in rhyme made up of one thousand Chinese characters. All of its sentences are four-character, antithetical and neat, clear and logical as well as brilliant in literary grace. This time, our Press has made creative efforts to invite the famous teacher Chen Qin as the editor in chief and push out series of books of Enlightenment Education Classics Reciting Copies by sorting the recording materials of her reciting enlightenment education classics combined with calligraphy copies of Mr. Xiao Rongnian, and The Book of Family Names is one of these series of books. We believe that this new type of publishing by combining reciting with calligraphy will be of significant convenience for vast teenagers to learn studies of Chinese ancient civilization.
