This book is one of the research results of the famous sinologist Professor Nicolas Standaert on the exchanges of historiography and historical chronology between China and Europe in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. It mainly examines the role of a special genre of history books that appeared in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties - "Gangjian style" historical books - in the cultural exchanges between China and the West, and its impact on Western writing of ancient Chinese history. This book is mainly divided into two parts. The first part discusses the genealogy of Gangjian's historical works in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties and the narratives of Chinese history and chronology by Europeans who came to China, as well as their sources of Chinese historical materials. Based on the comparison of the two, the core point of the book is introduced - the interweaving of cultures in Chinese history writing; the second part focuses on ancient Chinese history. Focusing on the Chinese Emperor Ku and his wives and concubines, we trace Ku's life trajectory and the legend of his wives' "miraculous birth" through different records in different texts, and use this as a main clue to reconstruct the genealogy of historical texts and the differences between different types of historical books, and explore Europeans' interpretation of Chinese historical texts from the perspective of cross-cultural hermeneutics.

"Memoirs of the Roman Civil War" is a memoir written by Caesar after the civil war. Although the civil war ended with Pompey's defeat, the republican forces opposing Caesar remained strong after the war. In order to declare the inevitability of his victory over Pompey and at the same time avoid arousing fierce resistance from the opponents, Caesar used the third person "he" in most cases in the book to show that Caesar was objective rather than subjective. Unfortunately, this book does not stitch up the irreconcilable contradictions between republicans and monarchists, slavery and feudalism.

This civil war was a key battle in Rome's transformation from slavery to feudalism, and republic to monarchy, and had a profound impact on the historical trend of the entire Europe.
