99K01

This book is a self-selected collection of Mr. Ye Tingfang's essays. The main content includes cherishing people and tracing his academic path throughout his life. Mr. Ye grew up in a remote village in western Zhejiang. Unfortunately, he lost an arm and became almost a disabled person in the eyes of the villagers. However, with his stubborn and unyielding personality, he went from the countryside to the city of Quzhou, and then to Peking University and the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. His mentors and senior scholars such as Feng Zhi, Zhao Linketi, and Lu Yuan all left a profound mark on his life journey. His sympathetic works have simple language and simple style, which express the innocence of this German literature researcher who came out of the land of western Zhejiang. The introduction of Kafka and Dürrenmatt had a profound impact on the domestic literary world. However, at the beginning of reform and opening up, it took considerable courage and courage to break through the long-term confinement of "leftist" ideological trends.
