Abstract

Chu Hsi’s <<Saseojanggujipju(四書章句集注)>> had a massive impact on the later scholars. The contents of variorum notae are extensive from literature to history and philosophy, and this writing examined the method of grammatical explanation of Chu Hsi variorum notae by focusing on grammatical aspects. To summarize the examination result, Chu Hsi explained the grammar of the text in the way as follows: First, Chu Hsi replaced the expletive used for the text with its similar expletive. Second Chu Hsi converted the inverted word order of the text to the basic word order of Chinese classics. Third, Chu Hsi aggressively replenished the sentence constituent omitted in the text. Fourth, Chu Hsi converted to the structural form differing from the text using expletives. It was found that Chu Hsi didn’t directly explain the grammar in variorum notae, but he used the above methods steadily. This could be interpreted as a thing made by chance but as the result of his concentration of concern for grammatical explanation as well while describing variorum notae. The method of grammatical explanation shown in Chu Hsi variorum notae doesn’t suggest a new grammar theory. However, it’s possible to find significance from his method in that Chu Hsi’s method of grammatical explanation shows the grammar theories suggested in the past through example sentences; his method of grammatical explanation produced mutually comparable example sentences, so it’s possible to induce the increase in a beginning student’s reading comprehension by applying the example sentences to grammar education, and Chu Hsi’s method of grammatical explanation is available for rhetorical method & research through the sentences whose structural form are converted.
