春秋繁露 by active 2nd century B.C. Zhongshu Dong

"春秋繁露" by Dong Zhongshu is a philosophical work attributed to the 2nd century BC, though likely compiled over centuries into the 4th century. This 82-chapter text explores Confucian thought, cosmology, and political theory through interpretations of classical texts. Its authorship remains disputed since the Song dynasty, with scholars suggesting it may be a collection of writings by multiple authors from the Han dynasty. Despite questions about authenticity, it preserves valuable early Confucian philosophy and influenced later thinkers. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
