The Ten Wings

The traditional commentarial layer of the Yi Jing.

Tradition attributes the Ten Wings to Confucius. Modern scholarship treats their authorship and dating as more complicated. This edition distributes some Wings directly onto the gua they comment on, while others remain standalone reading pages.
