| Shu Ching
(Chinese: "Classic of History"), Pinyin SHU JING, also called
SHANG SHU ("Official History"), one of the Five Classics (Wu
Ching) of Chinese antiquity. The Shu Ching is a compilation of
documentary records related to events in China's ancient history. Though it
has been demonstrated that certain chapters are forgeries, the authentic
parts constitute the oldest Chinese writing of its kind.
The Shu Ching consists of 58 chapters. Of these, 33 (originally
29, but some chapters have been divided), called the "modern
script" text, are considered by most scholars to be authentic works of
the 4th century BC or earlier. The first five chapters of the Shu Ching
purport to preserve the sayings and recall the deeds of such illustrious
emperors as Yao and Shun, who reigned during China's legendary golden age.
Chapters six to nine are devoted to the Hsia dynasty (c. 2205-c.
1766 BC), the historicity of which has not been definitively established.
The next 17 chapters deal with the Shang dynasty and its collapse in 1122
BC. The blame for this is placed on the last Shang ruler, who is described
as oppressive, murderous, extravagant, and lustful. The final 32 chapters
cover the Hsi (Western) Chou dynasty that ruled China until 771 BC.
