""An Introduction to Chinese Classics"" is a work written by Zhu Ziqing that explores the culture of traditional Chinese classics.

""An Introduction to Chinese Classics"" consists of thirteen essays. The book is organized according to the traditional order of the Four Categories-Classics, History, Philosophy, and Belles-lettres. It begins with Xu Shen's ""Shuowen Jiezi,"" continues with the Classics category, including the ""I Ching,"" ""Book of Documents,"" and ""Book of Songs,"" followed by the History category with works such as ""Strategies of the Warring States,"" ""Records of the Grand Historian,"" and ""Book of Han,"" and finally covers the Philosophers, poetry, and prose. With its clear and systematic structure, the book serves as an excellent guide for readers seeking to understand traditional Chinese classics.
