Yang Liansheng

154K0

This book is a collection of the letters of the famous Sinologist Mr. Yang Liansheng, which includes his correspondence with nearly 50 scholars including Hu Shi, Qian Mu, Zhao Yuanren, Li Fanggui, Rao Zongyi, Xiao Gongquan, and Miao Yue in the fifty years since 1938. The letter mostly talks about knowledge, and the inspiration is reflected in the auspicious light. It also talks about life, with anecdotes, new insights, and witty remarks. These letters are Yang Liansheng's "idle writing" besides academic works. Most of them are compiled for the first time and are of great value. What is even more rare is that these letters show the rigorous attitude of the older generation of scholars in studying and the ease of integrating knowledge into life. These geese crossing the ocean also outline the diverse aspects of the academic world at that time.
