运书日记(附《胶海逭暑日记》)
Written By Chen Xunci And Compiled By Zhou Zhenhe And Zhou Yanggu
In 1937, the Japanese invaders' war spread across China. In order to preserve Wenlan Pavilion's "Sikuquanshu" and the rare ancient books in the Zhejiang Provincial Library, Chen Xunci, then director of the Zhejiang Library, rushed between the Zhejiang Provincial Government, which had moved south to Yongkang to avoid the war, and the provincial offices that had moved to Fangyan. "Book Transport Diary" records what he did and what he encountered during the two months from January 1, 1938 to February 28, 1938, when transporting and preserving rare books in the library. It shows a generation of intellectuals' concern for the fate of their home and country and their cherishment of national culture. It is moving to read. "Jiaohai Summer Diary" is the diary of Chen Xunci who went north to Qingdao in July and August 1936 to attend the annual meeting of the Chinese Library Association and to escape the summer heat in Jiaohai. The diary records his itinerary and daily life in the month before and after his trip. It records much of his encounters and conversations with his professional teacher Liu Yizheng and other colleagues in the cultural and book circles who attended the meeting, ranging from academic gossip, current discussions in the cultural circles to current discussions in the military and political circles. It not only shows Chen Xunci's friendships, knowledge, thoughts and understandings, but also reflects a cultural man's concern for national culture and national education in the flames of war, as well as a series of his personal attitudes and views on state affairs, public service, and family affairs.
