The taste makes people think deeply. It is no exaggeration to call it a masterpiece and a masterpiece in the history of the times.

"General History of China" is one of Mr. Lu Simian's "two general histories". The book is divided into two parts. The first volume describes the development of social economy, historical institutions and academic culture by topic, while the second volume describes the changes in political history in historical order. The style is quite special and is obviously different from the teacher's other general history works. The book was originally published by Kaiming Bookstore from 1940 to 1944. It was reprinted many times in just a few years and was generally popular at the time. Together with "History of the Country in Vernacular", it can be called Mr. Lu's most important general history work.

"History of the Qin and Han Dynasties" is the second work of Mr. Lu Simian's Chinese chronological history series. It was published by Shanghai Kaiming Bookstore in 1947. In 1983, it was edited by Mr. Yang Kuan and Lu Yiren and published by Shanghai Ancient Books Publishing House as one of the "Historical Treatises of Lu Simian". For the "History of Qin and Han" published this time, we have re-edited it based on the first edition of Kaiming Bookstore. In order to facilitate readers' reading, we have changed the original traditional Chinese from vertical to horizontal simplified, and changed the two-line annotations in the original book into single-line italic annotations. Other than the obvious errors and irregular usages, no other changes have been made. The author's notes in the original book are excerpts made by the author for research. The text is very brief and marked with corresponding page numbers. It is now attached to the text with under-page notes for readers' reference.

This book is a large encyclopedia of Chinese history. It runs through the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Xia, Shang and Zhou, Spring and Autumn and Warring States, Qin and Han Dynasties to the Ming and Qing Dynasties and the Republic of China. It covers various fields such as politics, economy, system, culture, and society. It involves specialized knowledge in history, geography, etc. That is not easy to find in general reference books. In terms of form, it changes from long sermons. It is short and concise, easy to read and understand, without any dullness. In terms of content, it is even more coherent and has extremely original and novel insights. It can be said to be Lu Simian's most popular general history of China.

This book is the only popular historical work written by the historian Mr. Lu Simian during his lifetime. Based on rich historical knowledge, the author makes a detailed distinction between the characters, events, wars and geographical environment that existed in the history of the Three Kingdoms and were shaped in the literature of the Three Kingdoms from the perspective of literature and history. He also conducts in-depth analysis of many major historical issues and puts forward many valuable insights. Mr. Lu's history writing focuses on the comprehensive study of society, and he is able to comprehend it comprehensively. He often has a unique eye when commenting on history. Therefore, this book has become an important reference for Mr. Yi Zhongtian's evaluation of the Three Kingdoms.

The original name of this book is "History of the Country in Vernacular" (full name "History of the Country in Self-Study and Applicable Vernacular"). It was printed and published by the Commercial Press in 1923. It is Mr. Lu Simian's famous historical work. This book has been reprinted many times and has been widely circulated and has far-reaching influence. The book is divided into six chapters: introduction, ancient history, medieval history, modern history, modern history, and conclusion.

This book is a selected collection of Mr. Chengzhi's writings on modern Chinese history, including six parts: Lecture Notes on Modern Chinese History, Prehistory of Modern China, Overview of Chinese History in the Past Hundred Years, Supplement to the History of China in the Past Hundred Years, Supplement to the Cultural History of Modern China, and the Russo-Japanese War. Among them, only "The Russo-Japanese War" was published in a single volume by the Commercial Press in 1928. Although the six parts of the book were written in different periods, with overlaps, continuations, and ruptures, each part is an indispensable part of the overall history of modern China. What is particularly worth mentioning is that Mr. Seiyuki's purpose in writing these modern history works was to speak out and arouse everyone's spirit to further resist aggression. Mr. Wang's optimism and confidence in the destiny of the Chinese nation overflows from every line in the book, and his pure heart is particularly touching.

"General History of China" was originally called "General History of China by Lu" and was divided into the first volume (1940, Kaiming Bookstore) and the second volume (1944, Kaiming Bookstore). It is now combined into one volume, divided into the upper part and the lower part. The first part describes the development of social and economic systems, political systems, and cultural academics in categories, including eighteen categories such as marriage, clan system, political system, class, property, official system, election, taxation, military system, criminal law, industry, currency, food and clothing, housing and transportation, education, language, academics, and religion; the second part narrates the changes in political history in historical order.

Based on the initial final edition of the Shanghai Commercial Press in the 23rd year of the Republic of China, it has a newly carefully edited collection and 1,008 professional annotations to eliminate reading difficulties and enable an in-depth reading of historical details. A common mistake for those who compile the general history of China is that historical facts of regulations are lacking in insights and are extremely boring. With the publication of Lu Simian, in view of this, he wrote the general history with rich historical knowledge and smooth writing style, so as to open a new era for the writing of general history. --The famous historian Gu Jiegang

Mr. Lu mainly used modern sociological theory to elaborate on Confucius's thought of Datong, and analyzed the social changes in China and the practical process of Datong theory. He believed that the ideal model of social organization created by Confucius was the driving force that guided people of all generations to strive for social improvement. The process of social change is the process of striving for Datong, rather than a simple retrospective action. It was originally called "History of Social Changes in China" and was later renamed "Interpretation of Datong". Later, considering that "more people are closer to vernacular than to classical Chinese" and in order to "disseminate it more widely and achieve greater results", the classical Chinese manuscript was changed to vernacular, and it was called "History of Social Changes in China".

It is not only clear and accurate, but also embodies the author's unique research methods and comprehensive or specific insights. It is still an excellent popular reading on the general history of China. However, this book was produced in the 1930s. Due to the underdevelopment of science and technology and the imperfect collection of personal information, there are inevitably some errors in the book. Especially the chronology of historical events, some of which are inconsistent with modern chronology, we have corrected according to the modern chronology; we have retained the chronology involved in historical periodization, because different periods represent different views on history. This is a matter of benevolence and wisdom. More opinions and opinions are also beneficial to the development of history.

It was not until the end of the Western Han Dynasty that Wang Mang's reform was finally triggered. However, the failure of Wang Mang's reforms led to "It is better to rule the world than to make peace with the world, and to bring peace to the world it is better to make peace with the world" became a golden rule in politics.
