Publishing Date: 2004-11-01
Features: This collection does not include all the writings ever published. Some scattered articles and single publications were excluded for various reasons. The collection consists of six volumes. Volume I is Essentials of Chinese Grammar, and Volume II is Collected Papers on Chinese Grammar, both of which have been published as standalone books. Volume III is Continued Papers on Chinese Grammar, which includes Modern Chinese Demonstratives, originally published as a standalone book, and grammar papers written after 1980. Volume IV is Essays on Language and Literature, based on Lü Shuxiang's Essays on Language and Literature published in 1983, supplemented with non-specialized articles from the same period, along with some revisions and reorganization. Volume V contains four single publications on language and literature: Common Talk on Language, Random Notes on Language, Comments on Annotating Ancient Books, and Chinese Learning English. Volume VI is Translated Works, which is the Collected Translations of Lü Shuxiang published in 1983. Lastly, like most authors, I hope readers can find some value in my books rather than entirely useless content. This is my sincere wish. Comrade Zhang Wansi of Commercial Press has done extensive proofreading for the entire collection, and Professor Jiang Weisong of Shandong University wrote the book title. My gratitude goes to them all. Lü Shuxiang January 1, 1989
