The Manuscript of History: Alternative Observations on Recent China Ii

About This Novel

Following "The Bad Temper of History", the second book "The Manuscript of History" was released. How the observations in the two books are different and special can be summarized in Zhang Ming's words as "out of time". In the preface of "The Manuscript of History", he stated the reason for being "out of time": in social life, a person with a little personality often feels suffocated. To break this suffocation, for me, it means making some inappropriate and bizarre remarks from time to time. In fact, it's not surprising, it's just common sense based on common sense and rational judgment. Zhang Ming's two books on recent China do not quote major events or topics, but only anecdotes about human nature and the world. In "Manuscripts of History", the author uses toothbrushes, braids, portraits of scholars' tongues, and prescriptions for the Boxer Rebellion as topics. At first glance, they are trivial things that cannot be included in the big book of history, but they can be pulled out by the author into not simple propositions.
