Features: Elephant Character Autobiography Series. This series is quite different from the "Elephant Character Focus Series." In the "Focus Series," the described figure is an objective object, allowing the author to adopt their own stance and perspective to gaze at and scan, then narrate in a relatively free manner. In such circumstances, the author's subjective color inevitably determines the narrative angle and language, so the figure they focus on is often just the "one" in their mind, rather than the complete truth of the person. Added to the limitation of the series' length, the life of a described figure, their rich and varied aspects, cannot be fully presented. Now, the "Elephant Character Autobiography Series" will make up for such shortcomings. In this series, the selected figures are no longer objects of focus and scanning by others, but the protagonists narrating their own lives to the readers. Compared to the "Focus Series," it may make readers feel more intimate. Because it can serve as a personalized historical reading material and also become a more valuable cultural reading material outside of textbooks.
