About “Jingchu Suishiji”

The Jingchu Suishiji is a historical account of holidays in central China from the 6th and 7th centuries. It was compiled by Du Gongzhan during the Sui or early Tang dynasty as a revised and annotated version of an earlier work called the Jingchuji, written by Zong Lin in the mid-6th century. The original Jingchuji is no longer extant, and the original text of the Jingchu Suishiji is also lost. Modern editions are based on attempts by Ming and Qing scholars to reconstruct the text from fragments found in other writings. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
