Studies of the Shi jing or Classic of Poetry have long been primarily concerned with how to read the text (or how the text has been read by others), and many of these discussions have contributed greatly to Chinese notions of reading in general. However,there has been rather less attention to how the Poetry may have been written in the first place (or the second or third place). There are several individual poems in the two Ya 雅sections that explicitly mention the “making” (zuo 作) of the poem within the poem itself,some of these also mentioning the maker by name,1 and there are a few other poems that address unique and identifiable historical events in ways that reflect their making.
Shi Yue Zi Jiao:
"I have had occasion in the past to mention the suggestion of Pang Sunjoo 方善柱 that the famous mention of a tenth-month (shi yue 十月) solar eclipse in the poem “Shi yue zhi jiao” 十月之交(Mao 193) isa graphic error for a “seventh-month” (qi yue 七月) eclipse, the archaic character for “seven” (xx) being essentially identical with the clerical script form of the character for “ten” (xx); see Fang Shanzhu, “XiZhou niandai xue shang de jige wenti” 西周年代學上的幾個問題, Dalu zazhi 大陸雜誌 51.1 (1975):"
