 In the Han we also find the origins of the commentarial tradition on philosophical texts. There was already an established commentarial tradition by the time of the Han on the historical and ritual texts known as the Five Classics. The commentarial tradition on the ancient historical text Chunqiu, in particular, became central in the early Han. A new commentarial tradition developed in the Han, however, connected to philosophical texts such as the Analects, Daodejing, Zhuangzi, and others. The commentarial tradition surrounding these texts became a major source of philosophical development throughout the rest of the history of philosophy in China (see Makeham 2003).
