Content introduction:
Sun Tzu's Art of War, also known as Wu Sun Tzu's Art of War and Sun Tzu and Sun Wu's Art of War, was written by Sun Wu. Sun Wu was born in Qi at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period. He was exiled to the State of Wu by the State of Qi, assisted the King of Wu in running the country and the army, became a famous vassal, and was honored as a "soldier saint".
Sun Tzu's Art of War is known as "the sacred book of military science" and "the first book of ancient military science". It has played an extremely important guiding role in ancient Chinese military art and war practice.
Sun Tzu's Art of War is the earliest extant art book, which has always been highly respected and attracted many scholars. All thirteen articles, each beginning with Sun Tzu Yue, are focused, distinct, rigorous in logic, concise in language, simple in style, good in parallelism and narrative, and vivid and concrete in metaphor.
For example, writing about the actions of the army: "Fast as the wind, fierce as the fire, motionless as the mountain, obscure as the yin, and moving as the" (On the Army) is both appropriate and vivid, with a sonorous sound and extraordinary momentum, so Liu Xie called it "Sun Zhijing, and his words are like pearls and jade" ("Wen Xin Diao Long Cheng Qi"). I want to work out the layout of the article with careful thinking in the battle, just like giving Sun Wu a little freshness.
"Soldiers, state affairs, places of life and death, and ways of survival must be observed." Sun Tzu's Art of War inherits and develops the previous military theories, regards politics as the primary factor to determine the outcome of a war, and summarizes the principles of war, including pre-war preparation, the use of strategies, the deployment of operations, and the judgment of the enemy's situation.
It has been regarded as a military classic for more than two thousand years, and it still has great practical significance. Mao Zedong admired Sun Tzu's Art of War, and Sun Tzu's wisdom, faithfulness, benevolence, courage and strictness became the "martial virtue" of China soldiers.
Up to now, the earliest handed down book is Sun Tzu's Art of War, a bamboo book unearthed in Yinshan Mountain, Shandong Province in 1972. Unfortunately, it is an incomplete bamboo slip, so we can't get a glimpse of it. It was compiled by a group of experts on Han bamboo slips and published by Cultural Relics Publishing House 1975.
The earliest existing block print is Eleven Grandsons during the reign of Xiaozong and Guangzong in the Southern Song Dynasty. There is also a copy of Seven Books of Jason Wu's Sun Tzu, photocopied by China Academy of Art, 1935. Cao Cao's annotation was the earliest, and Wei Wudi's grandson was included in Sun Wu's Sima Fa in Ping Jin Ting Ji.
Since then, many annotations have appeared, such as Ten Notes on Sun Tzu in Qing Dynasty, Seven Books on the Interpretation of Wu Jing Hui, Notes on the Style of Wu Jing in Xia Dynasty, Notes on Sun Tzu Hui, Notes on Sun Tzu Hui, Notes on Sun Tzu's Art of War by Wu Jiulong, and New Comments on Sun Tzu's Art of War by Wu.
Extended data writing background:
When Sun Wu moved to Wu, it coincided with the coup of Gongzi Guang. After Sun Guang acceded to the throne, Wu Zixu heard about his talent and recommended him to the Prince. Sun Wu took 13 to see the king of Wu, and was highly valued.
"History of Art and Literature" records: "Military strategist Sun Tzu, eighty-two articles, nine volumes". Thirteen of the eighty-two articles were written before meeting the king of Wu; Watch Queen Wu write more questions and answers.
As late as the Tang Dynasty, The Art of War consisted of three volumes, of which the first volume was 13 and the second volume was 2. Note Du Mu thinks that Cao Cao abridged eighty-two articles of Sun Tzu's Art of War into thirteen articles; However, some commentators believe that the Thirteen Lines was written by Sun Tzu himself, not the result of Cao Cao's abridgement, but a book compiled by Sun Wu's disciples later.
About the author:
Sun Wu (about 545 BC-about 470 BC), whose real name was Changqing, was born in Le 'an (now northern Shandong Province) at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period. China, a famous strategist and politician in the Spring and Autumn Period, was honored as a soldier sage or grandson (Sun Wuzi), also known as "the most holy strategist", and was known as "the teacher of a hundred schools of thought" and "the originator of eastern military science".
Sun Wu was active from the end of 6th century BC to the beginning of 5th century BC, from Qi State to Wu State, and was recommended by the senior minister of Wu State (Wu Zixu). He presented thirteen articles of Sun Tzu's Art of War to He Lv, the king of Wu, and was reused as a general. He once led Wu Jun to defeat the Chu army, occupied the capital of Chu, and almost destroyed Chu.
His masterpiece, The Art of War, contains thirteen articles, which are highly praised by later military strategists. It is known as the "sacred book of military science" and ranks first among the seven military classics.
Sun Tzu's Art of War occupies an extremely important position in the history of military affairs, military art and philosophy in China and even in the world, and is widely used in politics, economy, military affairs, culture, philosophy and other fields. This book has been translated into English, French, German and Japanese, making it the most famous model of military science in the world.
