Su Manshu (1884-1918), a modern writer, poet and translator. His original name was Jian, with the courtesy name Zigu, his scientific name Yuanying (also known as Xuanying), his dharma name Bojing, his dharma name Manshu, and his pen names Yinchan and Su Shi. Studied at Waseda University, Japan's top private university. Su Manshu was good at poetry and painting throughout his life. He was proficient in Chinese, Japanese, English, Sanskrit and other languages. He was versatile and made achievements in various fields such as poetry and novels. Later generations compiled his works into "The Complete Works of Manshu" (a total of 5 volumes). As an important member of the reformist literary group Nanshe, Su Manshu once contributed articles to publications such as "Minbao" and "New Youth". His poetic style was "clear, bright and beautiful", which was unique and had great influence at the time. The genius Su Manshu only lived for a short period of 35 years, but the words and legends he left behind have been continuously written by future generations. Bai Luomei used beautiful brushwork, combined with Su Manshu's life and creation, to paint a unique spiritual portrait of him.
Reader comments
I don't really like articles with gorgeous words, because if they are too gorgeous, they will cover up the emotions that are originally intended to be expressed, leading to misunderstandings. But the article written by Mr. Bai Luomei is just right. The first time I met Mr. Bai Luomei was because of the book she wrote about Zhang Ailing. From that moment on, I was destined to fall in love with Mr. Bai Luomei's articles. The Su Manshu written by Mr. As recorded in the postscript, he is a legend and lonely at the same time. Whether a person's life is worthy of being written and remembered is insignificant. People who want to remember you will not forget any trace of you. I don't care about you, and I won't explore anything about you [exploration]
I especially like the character Su Manshu, he is versatile and his life is full of legend. His poetic style is unique and very contagious. However, I kind of hate his ruthlessness, just like what he wrote in his poem, "I am also living a hard and sick life, so I would rather listen to the Yakumo koto." Overall, this is a book well worth reading.
