Clear classification and precise interpretation angle
The short descriptions of Liaozhai are concise and interesting. In just a few lines, I saw the pitiful chain.
The author has rich knowledge base, rich experience, correct outlook on life and strong language expression ability.
As a literary work in classical Chinese, there are many quotations from scriptures, and many story backgrounds are not known, so one cannot feel the greatness of the work! After learning to interpret it from the professor, it is even more interesting to read!
