Dream collections of famous scholars yearn for rare books. A rare book refers to a specific printing, edition, or manuscript of a book that exists in only one copy worldwide. Due to the burning prohibitions of rulers throughout the ages, the plunder by foreign powers, the dealings of unscrupulous merchants, and the passage of time, wars, and natural disasters, countless treasures of Chinese culture have been lost, making the surviving rare books exceptional artifacts, invaluable works, and possessing extremely high cultural heritage value, research value, and collection value.
Among the royal imperial library collections, the collections of famous scholars, and the holdings of bibliophiles, rare book collections are what they desire most. For countless readers, it is rare to glimpse or view the thousands of years of Chinese book collection history. Once a book becomes a rare book, it is inevitably placed on high shelves, and it also excludes the vast majority of readers. Many libraries also have a tradition that if a rare book is shown to others, it is considered a disreputable act. Yet, precisely in these rare books hidden in libraries, stored far away overseas, or secretly kept by private individuals, there is much that remains hidden, driving people to "crave rare books."
The Miraculous "Paper" of Luoyang, Revisited: The "Chinese Rare Books" has meticulously selected over seventy rare and exquisite works from countless rare books and secret texts around the world, integrating them into one volume. It highly condenses the essence of rare book collections over more than two thousand years.
