Introduction to China's Traditional Literature

China's sinology is China's ancient literature, which is the so-called "primary school". In the Western Han Dynasty, philology was called "primary school", and in the Tang and Song Dynasties, it was also called "primary school" for self-study. When reading, we should first know the characters, master the font, pronunciation and meaning, and learn to use them. When children entered school in the Zhou Dynasty, they first learned harmony (referring to six groups of simple strokes from Jia). Six books refer to things, pictographs, sounds, meanings, annotations and debates, so "philology" used to be called "primary school", hence the name "primary school".
