Publish Date: 1993-09-01
Features: This collection of essays does not include all the writings I have ever written. Some scattered articles and single publications have been 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 the previously published standalone works Modern Chinese Demonstratives and grammar papers written after 1980. Volume IV is Miscellaneous Essays on Language and Literature, based on the 1983-published Lü Shuxiang's Essays on Language and Literature, supplemented with non-specialized articles from after 1983, along with some revisions and reorganization. Volume V contains four standalone language and literature publications: Common Talk on Language and Literature, Random Notes on Language and Literature, Comments on Ancient Text Annotations, and Chinese People Learning English. Volume VI is the Translation Collection, which is the 1983-published Lü Shuxiang's Translation Collection. At the end, 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 Wanzhi of Commercial Press has done extensive proofreading for the entire collection, and Professor Jiang Weisong of Shandong University has written the book title for this volume. My gratitude goes to them all. Lü Shuxiang January 1, 1989
