Translations of Su Shi's Biography in Classic Chinese
The following is a translation of some of the relevant content of the Song Shi Su Shi Biography: ** 1. Name ** Su Shi's name was "Shi", which referred to the horizontal wood used as a handrail in front of the ancient carriage (from "Zuo Zhuan, 10th year of Zhuang Gong","look down at the rut, climb up and look at it"). The word "Zi Zhan" meant to look up or forward ("Er Ya" records: Zhan, also refers to looking). ** 2. Family and Early Education ** 1. ** Place of Birth ** - In the first year of Taiping Xingguo of the Northern Song Dynasty (976 AD), Yi County was renamed Meishan County, which was the administrative office of Meizhou on Xichuan Road. Its jurisdiction was roughly equivalent to Dongpo District of Meishan City in Sichuan Province today. 2. ** Family relationships and early education ** - When Su Shi was ten years old (1045, the fifth year of the Song Renzong's Qingli), his father, Su Xun (1010 - 1066, a famous writer of the Northern Song Dynasty), traveled around to study. His mother, Cheng (1011 - 1057, daughter of Meishan tycoon Cheng Wenying, gave birth to three boys and three girls), personally taught him to read. Whenever he heard about the success or failure of ancient and modern times, Su Shi could always point out the key points. - Once, when his mother read the Biography of Fan Pang in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, she sighed with emotion. Su Shi asked his mother,"What would you think if my son became a person like Fan Pang?" "If you can be Fan Pang, can't I be Fan Pang's mother?" Fan Pang was a minister during the reign of Emperor Huan and Emperor Ling of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He was framed by eunuchs for impeaching dignitaries and fighting corruption. In the end, he died of depression. This showed that Su Shi's mother was knowledgeable and had a forthright and determined personality, which had a great influence on Su Shi. 3. ** The growth of knowledge in youth ** - By the time Su Shi was twenty years old (the second year of Song Renzong's reign, 1055 AD), he was already proficient in classics and history. He could write thousands of words a day and liked to read the books of Jia Yi of the Western Han Dynasty (a famous political commentator in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty) and Lu Zhi of the Tang Dynasty (a famous prime minister in the middle of the Tang Dynasty). At this moment, he was also married to Wang Fu. Not long after, when he read Zhuangzi, Su Shi lamented that he used to have opinions but could not express them accurately. Seeing this book finally resonated with his heart. ** 3. Scientific Research Experience ** 1. ** Jinshi examination ** - Su Shi had participated in four Jinshi examinations. The first test was on poetry and Fu (writing poems and Fu), the second test was on classics (filling in the blanks with questions and answers from the classics and history), the third test was on policy (proposing solutions to specific problems of national affairs), and the fourth test was on discussing one's own views and comments on major events in China history). - In the second year of Jiayou (1057), Su Shi did not pass the first poetry examination, and his poems were judged as unqualified by the marking officer. However, Ouyang Xiu adopted a comprehensive evaluation method for the Jinshi examination.(The total score was calculated after the four exams.) Su Shi did badly in the poetry and Fu exams, the classics and righteousness exams were okay, and the policy exams were average, but his theory was very well written. His "On the Loyalty of Punishment and Reward" quoted the example of ancient benevolent people implementing punishment and reward based on loyalty, expressing his devotion to the Confucian benevolent government thought and proposing the judicial thought of leniency for suspected crimes. Mei Yaochen, the examiner, praised the article and recommended it to Ouyang Xiu, the examiner. Ouyang Xiu wanted to be ranked first, but because his student Zeng Gong was also taking the exam, he felt that the tone of the article was like Zeng Gong. He was afraid that people would say that he was taking care of Zeng Gong, so he ranked Su Shi second. 2. ** Exam ** - In the sixth year of Jiayou (1061), Su Shi took part in the examination of the system. The system was a special examination for special talents. Su Shi's performance in the examinations was quite outstanding.
