Zhugezi 諸葛子

Zhugezi 諸葛子 "Master Zhuge" was a book written by Zhuge Ke 諸葛恪 (203-253), who lived during the Three Empires period 三國 (220-280). Zhuge Ke, courtesy name Yuanxun 遜, hailed from Langya 琅琊 (modern Yishui 沂水, Shandong) and was Grand Mentor of the Heir Apparent (taizi taifu 太子太傅) at the court of the Wu empire 吳 (222-280).

The imperial bibliography Jingji zhi 經籍志 in the official dynastic history Suishu 隋書 lists a book Zhugezi with a length of 5 juan. It seems to be lost during the Tang period 唐 (618-907).

The Qing-period 清 (1644-1911) scholar Ma Guohan 馬國翰 (1794-1857) collected surviving fragments of it quoted in the encyclopaedias Beitang shuchao 北堂書鈔 and Taiping yulan 太平御覽 and was able to compile three chapters that he published in the series Yuhan shanfang yiji shu 玉函山房輯佚書. The editors of the series Xuxiu siku quanshu 續修四庫全書 rate the Zhugezi as a mediocre book from which not much can be learnt.
