Features: The spread of Chinese civilization across the world has led to many people from various countries who are passionate about Chinese culture traveling to China to carefully seek out Chinese books, calligraphy, and paintings, passing them overseas. However, there are also quite a number of people with malicious intentions, coveting rare and secret Chinese cultural treasures, resorting to any means to seize them forcefully. This was especially true during the turbulent late Qing Dynasty, when a vast number of ancient Chinese books and secret texts were scattered overseas, causing incalculable losses. This book extensively collects ancient and rare books scattered across various countries, supported by exquisite binding, authoritative annotations, and presented in a clear and complete manner to Chinese scholars. It includes the U.S. held copy of "Yan Yi Bian", the U.K. held copy of "Chen Zi'ang Poetry Collection", the French held copy of "Ba Pu Zi", the German held copy of "Shuang Mei Qi Yuan", the Japanese held copy of "Xin Min Gong An", and more... Its value in historical and literary research is extremely high, making it a rare and cherished reading and collecting item for scholars.
