东方朔
The primary historical sources for Dongfang Shuo are biographies in the early Chinese dynastic Twenty-Four Histories. The (91 BCE) "Records of the Grand Historian" includes him under the "Biographies of Jesters" chapter (126, 滑稽列傳), which was appended by Chu Shaosun (褚少孫, c. 105 - c. 30 BCE). The (111 CE) "Book of Han" gives him a full "Biography of Dongfang Shuo" chapter (65, 東方朔傳).
