Confucius : Book of MusicTools Anon. Confucius : Book of Music. Toronto, Ont.: Parasitic Ventures Press, 2007.
Abstract (English)"K'ung Fu-Tzu, known in the west as Confucius, wrote the 'Six Books' in the sixth century BCE. Consisting of The Book of Poetry, The Book of Rituals, The Book of History, The Book of Changes, The Spring and Autumn Annals, and The Book of Music, knowledge of these books would be the basis of appointment to the Chinese bureaucracy for over 2000 years. Unfortunately, at some point in this period, The Book of Music was lost, leading some to claim that it never really existed." -- p. [4] of cover.
