About DIANJI

A free bilingual project for reading, understanding, and exploring Chinese classics.

How content is layered

DIANJI helps modern readers approach Chinese classics through original texts, translations, commentary, context, concept notes, and links across works. It prioritizes clarity, transparent sourcing, and long-term care over sheer volume.

Editorial boundaries

Canonical text is shown with the edition identified on the page. Traditional commentary keeps its author, source, and review status. Modern readings are labeled as editorial synthesis and never presented as canonical text. AI may support organization or retrieval, but does not replace human review.
