Features: The main purpose of our selection work, to be honest, is to select without editing, avoiding arbitrary judgment or excessive, and striving for completeness. The advantage of these books may lie in preserving more historical authenticity and saving readers the trouble of searching. Most articles published in 《》 are included here, and readers can judge the literary taste of this fashion magazine, which had a significant impact on modern Chinese publishing history, based on their own reading. During its twenty-year history in mainland China, 《》 evolved from initially catering to the Nationalist government to later actively participating in the war and sympathizing with the left wing. However, 《》 was always a purely civilian publication from the beginning, and the shift in political tone was merely a fashionable mask shared by most civilian publications at the time. Its true nature was relatively moderate and pragmatic, which can be seen from its twenty-year unchanged column design. Later, 《》 expanded or even shifted its focus on political reporting, but this was still determined by a sense of fashion. Of course, interviewing famous CCP figures and senior officers of the Eighth Route Army, and reporting on Ding Ling's Northwest War Zone Service Corps, etc., also reflected a certain left-wing stance. However, this was still a fashion at the time and should not be simply understood as a political inclination.
