Yuan Tongli's Chronicle (1)
About This Novel
Yuan Tongli (1895-1965), also known as Shouhe, was the founder of modern libraries and museums in China. He was praised by academic circles as "the sacrificial wine of Chinese library science" and "the pioneer of modern Chinese bibliography". "Chronicle" uses newspapers, periodicals, official documents, books, as well as letters collected by the Yuan family and numerous archives at home and abroad to sort out the life and academic interactions of this "central figure" in the history of modern Chinese academics day by day. It presents in detail the grand process of China's academic modernization transformation and the foundation of modern libraries and museums. Dr. Lei Qiang has spent more than ten years collecting and sorting out a large number of historical materials in Chinese, English and French, examining the sources and disputing doubts one by one, adding detailed notes, and neatly comparing them to form this huge collection. Among them, more than 2,800 pieces of manuscripts and files have been compiled and disclosed for the first time, and have important cultural and historical data value. An index of names is also compiled for special inspection.
