The Li Ki is a book translated by James Legge, which is a collection of ancient Chinese texts that date back to the Zhou dynasty. This book is one of the Five Classics of Confucianism, and it provides a comprehensive guide to the rituals, protocols, and customs of ancient Chinese society. The Li Ki covers a wide range of topics, including ethics, politics, music, art, and literature. It is divided into 52 chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Chinese culture. The book also includes commentaries and explanations by Confucian scholars, which provide further insight into the meaning and significance of the texts. Overall, The Li Ki is an important historical document that sheds light on the rich cultural heritage of ancient China.They informed the officer of prayer in the apartment; they seated the representative of the departed in the hall; they killed the victim in the courtyard. The head of the victim was taken up to the apartment. This was at the regular sacrifice, when the officer of prayer addressed himself to the spirit-tablet of the departed. If it were (merely) the offering of search, the minister of prayer takes his place at the inside of the gate of the temple.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
