Description

Dong Zhongshu (195104 BCE) was a native of the kingdom of Guanquan (part of present-day Hebei Province), where at an early age he mastered the Spring and Autumn, a famous chronicle of recorded historical events. A court-appointed scholar of the Gongyang Commentary to the Spring and Autumn, he was known for his interpretations of disasters and anomalies recorded in the text. Sarah A. Queen is professor of history at Connecticut College. She is the co-translator, with John S. Major, Andrew Seth Meyer, and Harold D. Roth, of The Huainanzi: A Guide to the Theory and Practice of Government in Early Han China and The Essential Huainanzi. John S. Major taught East Asian history at Dartmouth College. Now an independent scholar, he has published widely on various aspects of East Asian history.
