Gabelentz: Chinesische Grammatik

§21: Die beiden Männer (老子/Lao-tsi und Confucius) sind die Häupter der zwei in China heimischen philosophischen Schulen geworden. Von des 老子 Nachfolgern sind vier sammt ihrem grossen Lehrer in die Reihe der Zehn Meister 十子 aufgenommen worden: Lie zi, Han fei zi, 庄子 Zhuang zi und He guan zi. Allein die Lehre der 道家 oder 道士, wie sich die angeblichen Nachfolger des Lao-tsi nennen, artete bald in schnöden Aberglauben aus.

§23: Der anerkannte Meister unter den Historiker aber ist 司马迁/si1 ma3 qian1/Ssi-ma Tsien, 1. Jahrh. v. Chr., dessen gewaltige Reichsgeschichte 史记/shi3 ji4/Ssi-ki, fast der ganzen späteren Geschichtsschreibung als Muster gedient hat.

the marco polo project: 忠君并非无条件

“Cui 杼 ermordete 其君”，这个典故常用来 zu beschreiben Geschichts-记录者不 Rücksicht auf ihre Sicherheit、beim Schreiben verwendete Phrase 的风骨。公元前548年（im Lu-Kalender das 二十五年），齐国的重臣 Cui 杼 wird 国君庄公 töten，并 kontrollierte 国家。齐国的太史如此写，durch Cui 杼 getötet；他的弟弟 anschließend 这 Art 写，同 Art getötet；史官的另一个弟弟不 fürchtete zu sterben，und wiederholte 两位 gestorben 的兄长的 niedergeschriebene Worte。Gegenüber 这 Art 不 fürchtete zu sterben 的一家人，Cui 氏只好作罢。

Cui 杼为什么要 wird 国君 töten？可以说这是 schamlos 的齐庄公自 unternehmen 的。

Cui 杼的家臣东 Guoyan 的姐姐， heiratete 齐国的 Tang 公。不 lange danch starb Tang 公，她姐姐 junge Witwe。Cui 杼在东 Guoyan 的 begleiten 下去 kondolieren，看到 Witwe 很漂亮，色心打动，让东 Guoyan 去 说合，再 heiraten 他。东 Guoyan 说不可，我们是同姓—–古代姓、氏是分开的，东 Guo 和 Cui 氏都出自齐国公室 Jiang (Kang)姓，同姓，是不能结婚的。而且就此事 sagt das Orakel，是大 Unglück 之 象。可小 Witwe 实在太漂亮，Cui 杼舍不得，说这女人就算是白虎星，克夫，她的前夫 Tang 公 hatte bereits den Fluch auf sich genommen und war gestorben，以后就没事了。

Loyalty is not unconditional

“Cui Zhu killed his Lord”: this phrase is often used as an allusion to describe the way those who record events for history can disregard their own safety, and is the textbook reference to talk about strength of character. In 548 BC (Year 25 in the Lu calendar), the Minister of State of Qi country, Cui Zhu, killed the Monarch, Duke Zhuang, and took over the State. The Great historiographer of Qi country then wrote this: Cui Zhu killed him. His little brother wrote the same again, he killed him; and a third brother of the historian, who was not afraid to die, still repeated the words of his two dead brothers. Face with a man like this, who did not fear death, Cui Zhu had to give up.

Why did Cui Zhu kill his monarch? You could say that the shameless, dissolute Duke Zhuang brought it upon himself.

The older sister of Cui Zhu’s advisor, Dong Guoyan married, Duke Tang of Qi. Soon after, Duke Tang died, and his sister was a young widow. Dong Guoyan accompanied Cui Zhu to the funeral to pay their respects and Cui Zhu saw that the young widow was very attractive. Captivated by her beauty, Cui Zhu asked Dong Guoyan to be the mediator and arrange for the widow to marry him. Dong Guoyan refused, arguing that both his sister and Cui Zhu had the same family name — during the old days, family names and last names were different, and both the Cui family and the Dong Guo family were descendants of the Kang family, one of Qi country’s main clans, so, being of the same family line, they couldn’t not be married. Divination had also revealed that if they proceeded, the marriage would bring great misfortune. However, Cui Zhu was reluctant to let the matter go, as the young widow was very beautiful. He lamented that even if the widow was jinxed and destined to bring death upon her husband, her previous husband, Duke Tang had born the curse and died, so everything would be all right.
