Eight-legged essay : ウィキペディア英語版 | Eight-legged essay
The eight-legged essay () was a style of essay writing that had to be to pass the imperial examinations during the Ming and Qing dynasties. == Name ==
The eight-legged essay is named so because it was divided into eight sections. The term "essay" itself originates with Michel de Montaigne in 1580, when he published ''Essais''. The term "essay" then described a genera of literary endeavor. Montaigne's essays demonstrated a narrative deductive rather than inductive approach to examining and explaining experience. The eight-legged Confucian examination response is more an example of a prescribed organizational pattern than it is an essay in the broader understanding of the term, something more akin to the modern five-paragraph essay in that conforming to the criteria demonstrated an aspiring scholar's ability to explain ideas within the confines of an authorized or expected pattern. Accordingly, we must use the term "essay" loosely in this instance.
