I will read a series of books to entertain myself. For example, there is the Nobel Prize in Literature series, and strive to read the masterpieces of each laureate; there is a series of outstanding writers from all over the world, I think there are a total of more than 200 countries, each country selects a book, that is, more than 200 books, I think it can still be completed; there is a father-daughter reading series, that is, reading the list of books opened by her school with her daughter, this series is relatively easy to complete; there is also a series, which is set after watching a program by Gao Xiaosong, that is, the Lu Guo Maoba Lao Cao series. This temporary series is also the easiest to complete. These are all well-known literary giants in modern and contemporary times. Now to list it, there are mainly a few points of concern: date of birth, family origin, anecdotes, and look for ideas that I have recently cared about, most of the Republic of China everyone will go abroad, learn from ancient and modern China and foreign countries, and wait and see.

Lu Xun (September 25, 1881 – October 19, 1936), originally known as Zhou Zhangshou, later changed his name to Zhou Shuren, the character Yushan, and later changed the character Yucai, a native of Shaoxing, Zhejiang. Famous writers, thinkers, revolutionaries, educators, democracy fighters, important participants in the new cultural movement, and one of the founders of modern Chinese literature.
He was born in Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province, dongchangfang Xintaimen Zhou family. Young name Ah Zhang, ChangGen, Chang Geng, scientific name Zhou Zhangshou, born in the family of declining officials and eunuchs, grandfather Zhou Jiefu, Hanlin born, when he was a Zhi County, or have a family background.
In March 1902, together with Li Suizhi and Qian Junfu, he went to Japan to study at public expense. In September 1904, he entered sendai Medical College (now Tohoku University in Japan) and met Fujino Yankuro.
In May 1918, under the pseudonym Lu Xun, he published the first vernacular short story in the history of modern Chinese literature, "The Diary of a Madman", which was published in the fifth issue of the fourth volume of "New Youth".
In Lu Xun's personal life, there were two things that hit him hard. One is his married life, and the other is the discord with his younger brother Zhou Zuoren. I won't go into details.
He died of a stomach problem on October 19, 1936.
Guo Moruo commented: Lu Xun is a revolutionary thinker, an epoch-making literary and artistic writer, a historian who seeks truth from facts, an educator who sets an example by example, and an internationalist who longs for human liberation.
There are too many works by Lu Xun, just one or two: "Scream" and "Wandering".
Guo Moruo (16 November 1892 – 12 June 1978), real name Guo Kaizhen (郭開贞), courtesy name Dingtang (字鼎堂), was a modern Chinese writer, historian and archaeologist.
He was born in Leshan County, Jiading Province, Sichuan Province, to a family of landlords and businessmen. In January 1914, he went to Japan to study under the sponsorship of his eldest brother Guo Kaiwen.
In the spring of 1924, he went to Japan again, translating Kawakami's "Social Organization and Social Revolution" and Turgenev's novel "New Era" in Fukuoka, systematically understanding Marxist theory and establishing a Marxist world outlook.
In 1912, Guo Moruo was ordered by his parents to marry Zhang Qionghua, an old-fashioned woman who had not read a book, and because Guo Moruo was dissatisfied with the feudal marriage system, he ran away from home on the fifth day of marriage and went to Chengdu to study, but the two did not divorce. Until 1939, Guo Moruo returned to his hometown and bowed to Zhang Qionghua to apologize. Zhang Qionghua stayed in Guo Moruo's home for 68 years and had no children. This story is a bit similar to Lu Xun.
In the spring of 1978, he attended the opening ceremony of the National Science Conference with illness and was elected as the chairman of the Fourth Federation of Literary and Art Circles; in the same year, the anthology "Selected Plays of Moruo" was published; on June 12, he died in Beijing due to the ineffective treatment of lobar pneumonia for a long time.
Ba Jin commented that he (Guo Moruo) was very sincere, he talked and wrote articles, and there was no falsehood.
There are so many works that I have only read one of his poems, and the "Goddess" in it is the most widely passed down.
Mao Dun (July 4, 1896 – March 27, 1981), formerly known as Shen Dehong, pen name Mao Dun, was a native of Tongxiang City, Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province. Modern Chinese writer, literary critic, cultural activist and social activist.
Mao Dun was born in a family with quite novel ideas and received a new type of education from an early age. After being admitted to the preparatory department of Peking University, he entered the Commercial Press after graduation, and since then embarked on the road of reforming Chinese literature and art, he is the pioneer of the new cultural movement and one of the founders of Chinese revolutionary literature and art.
In 1928, he successively completed the creation of "Shake" and "Pursuit", that is, the trilogy "Eclipse". In July, he traveled to Japan, where he wrote novels such as "Rainbow" (unfinished) and "From Murying to Tokyo". I don't know if I went to Japan to study, but I also went abroad to see the world.
In 1946, he visited the Soviet Union.
On March 14, 1981, Mao Dun knew that he would not be able to afford to be ill, and donated 250,000 yuan to set up the Mao Dun Literature Prize to encourage the creation of outstanding contemporary novels. This move has a far-reaching impact on China's modern literary scene.
Mao Dun was the first Minister of Culture of New China.
His representative works are "Midnight" and "Lin Family Shop".
Ba Jin (November 25, 1904 – October 17, 2005), real name Li Yaotang, character 芾甘, pen name Ba Jin, was a contemporary Chinese writer.
He was born into a family of bureaucratic landlords in Chengdu, Sichuan Province.
In 1923, he went to Shanghai to study, in 1924, he was admitted to the Affiliated High School of Nanjing Southeast University, and in 1925, after graduating from high school, he engaged in social activities and compilation work in Shanghai [1]. In January 1927, he went to France to study.
After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, he served as the editorial board member of the "Salvation Daily" presided over by Guo Moruo, and co-edited "Scream" with Mao Dun.
On October 17, 2005, he died of illness in Shanghai.
Lu Xun commented that Ba Jin was a writer with enthusiastic progressive ideas, a writer among the few good writers.
There are many works left behind, I have read his "Home", "Spring", "Autumn" trilogy, and the overall feeling is like a Republic of China version of "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Lao She (February 3, 1899 – August 24, 1966), male, formerly known as Shu Qingchun, literally Sheyu. Because Lao She was born in Lichun, his parents named him "Qingchun", which probably contains the meaning of celebrating spring and having a bright future. After going to school, he changed his name to Shu Shiyu, which means "abandoning yourself", that is, "forgetting myself". Beijing Manchus are red flag people. Modern Chinese novelist, writer, language master, and people's artist.
Lao She was born in Beijing. His father was a Manchu protector who was killed in the Eight-Nation Alliance's attack on the city of Beijing. The family depends on her mother to do the laundry for the people.
In 1908, when Lao She was nine years old, he was sponsored by Master Zongyue to enter a private school.
In 1924, he went to England and became a lecturer at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London.
In the summer of 1929, he left England and returned to China, where he stayed in Singapore for half a year as a secondary school teacher.
In 1939, Lao She's english version of "Golden Plum Bottle" was published in London under the name Of The Golden Lotus, which is a more authoritative translation of "Golden Plum Bottle" in the West, and has been issued four times. It turned out that Elder Shu still had this huge work, and I wanted to look for it.
The first writer in New China to receive the title of "People's Artist". Representative works include "Camel Xiangzi", "Four Generations Together", the script "Tea House" and "Dragon Sugou".
Cao Yu (September 24, 1910 – December 13, 1996), formerly known as Wan Jiabao, was born in Qianjiang, Hubei Province, into a family of declining feudal bureaucrats in Tianjin, and was one of China's outstanding modern drama and dramawrights.
His father was the secretary of President Lai Won Hung, but he was idle at home and depressed. Cao Yu lost his mother at an early age, grew up in a depressed atmosphere, and had a bitter and introverted personality.
In September 1929, he was transferred from Nankai University to the second year of the Department of Western Literature of Tsinghua University, where he immersed himself in the study of drama, and widely read from ancient Greek tragedies to Shakespeare plays and plays by Chekhov, Ibsen and O'Neill, which brought great influence to his later creations.
Mr. Cao Yu is known as the "Shakespeare of the East" for his book "Thunderstorm"
In 1946, he was invited by the US State Department to give lectures in the United States with Lao She.
To recap, recount the teeth:
Lu Xun: 1881
Guo Moruo: 1892
Mao Dun: 1896
Barkin: 1904
Lao She: 1899
Cao Yu: 1910
Overall, it is still about generations, if Ba Jin and Lao She change it is better, it may be a little difficult to read. Look at Wang Yang Luluo, look at Su Huang Mi Cai, the old ancestor's etiquette, or pay attention to it.
In general, they were all born in wealthy families and have deep family roots. Although Cao Yu did not go abroad to study, he studied in foreign languages and went abroad to lecture. Therefore, the theory that I am concerned about learning from ancient to modern China and foreign countries is still valid.
