Traditional classification of text forms in the context of codification processes such as wenyan and baihua

The article aims at analysing traditional forms of text of Chinese literature in the context ofthe classical ancient classification of literature into four categories “Jing Shi Ji Qi” (“经 史 子 集”).Each category consists of specific forms of text that have a common ideological theme.Methodologically important in the study are the principles that the codification of textual forms, inthe first place, fixed and preserved the texts of Confucian ideology, and the forms of these textseventually became the literary norm. Elucidation of the peculiarities of the traditional classificationof literature, visual demonstration of the literary hierarchy is of key importance for a comprehensiveanalysis of codification processes in the Wenyan and Baihua languages. The author of the articleemphasizes the relationship between the adopted system of text classification and codificationsystems, which were responsible not only for the future form of implementation of the languagenorm, but also its further development and transition to another stage of functioning. A detailedexamination of the subgroups of each literature category demonstrates the relationship between themain concepts of textual codification and the hierarchical levels of classification. The historicalcomparativeand descriptive format of the research proposed in the article highlights the aspectthat the tradition of text codification, on the one hand, depended on the influence of the prevailingphilosophical and ethical doctrine, and on the other hand, on the needs of society. This combinationof two directions led to a wide variability of textual forms, purposeful division of literature intohigh and low, hierarchical structure of classification, where the most important literary formsare texts of the first category “canons”. It is proved that the beginning of stylistic codificationbegins with the textual forms of Confucian literature, and most texts of high literature are basedon Confucian ideology. The results obtained on the historical comparative and descriptive approachgive grounds to assert that the Confucian doctrine is leading in the introduction of codificationprocesses of the Wenyan language, and the codification processes of the Baihua language beginwith poetic forms of the text.
