The live class of the special class on the collection and use of ancient books is coming to an end. On Saturday, April 13th, we will have the last live class of this course.
Mr. Li will explain the "use of ancient books", and this live course will be divided into three parts:
- Identification of falsifications of information
- Entry, punctuation and reading of ancient books
- Cutting and refurbishing of ancient materials
It is worth mentioning that in the third part of this course, we invited the young writer Miao Zixi to give a lecture and share his exclusive creative experience.
Miao Zixi holds a bachelor's and master's degree in history from Peking University.

He has served as a contributor to the third season of CCTV's documentary "Aerial Photography of China", the brand column "National Archives", "Exploration and Discovery", and well-known publications such as "China National Geographic" and "Chinese Heritage".
Ms. Miao started with a material in Fan Chengda's "Wu Chuanlu", continued to explore and expand, and finally created a special article - "To the West: The Boom of Learning from the Scriptures and the Grand Plan of Song Taizu", which is included in her new book "Viewing Immeasurable".
