Wen Tu/Li Huanlong

In the "Book Roll Clouds" exhibition room of the Museum of Hidden in Ankang City, there is a set of books treasured in glass hoods, which are placed on the square table at the entrance alone. This is a set of treasures donated by Mr. Xu Shanlin, the smallest book I have seen in my lifetime.

Open a book, we found on the copyright page that its printing specifications were 256. Everyone knows that the books we usually see are 16 open and 32 specifications. The so -called 16 open, that is, one 16th of a piece of paper. Then, the opening of this set of books is one of 256 points of a piece of paper, one 16th of 16 paper. So small, from the naked eye, it is a match box.

"Although the sparrows are small, the liver and gallbladder are full." Open a book "Three Hundred Songs", and see that its structure is no different from the normal specifications.

The cover of the red plastic cover is covered with hard white paper, and the title of "Three Hundred Songs" and the name of the Shaanxi People's Publishing House. There is no label on the first version and the first printing time on the copyright page. We can only see from the information given: This book is the 2nd edition of May 1999, the 10th printed in August 2003. The printing of this version has reached 71000 Book; the book is submitted by the Northwest University Printing Factory and was distributed by Xinhua Bookstore.

Opening this book, we found that although its opening is small, it has a lot of capacity. Among the 60,000 -word content, there are 4 pages of "Targeting Zhou Yi Yuan", 44 pages of the directory, and 444 pages in the text. The income contains 300 words from 100 poets including Song Huizong and Li Qingzhao.

The editor of the book Zhu Xiaozang (1857-1931), a Huzhou from Huzhou, Zihuang Sheng, No. Qiangcun, officials to Hanlin Academy, the ministry minister, and Guangdong to study politics. He is proficient in words and is one of the "Four Poems in the late Qing Dynasty".

The preface of the author Juan Zhou Yi (1859-1926), a native of Guilin, stopped in Huzhou in his later years and was buried in Huzhou. As a talent and Gongsheng, he mainly taught, and he had led Jiang Chu's compilation official bookstore under the Governor Zhang Zhidong Mansion of Liangjiang. He has been committed to words throughout his life. For fifty years, he is especially good at the theory of words. He is collectively referred to as "Four Poems in the late Qing Dynasty" with Wang Pengyun, Zhu Xiaozang, and Zheng Wenzheng.

From the status of the two -person, we can see that the words selected in this book should be the boutique of the word circles.

In order to help readers understand the value of this book, the preface is currently recorded here:

"Word learning is very popular in the Song Dynasty. Reading the Songs of the Song Dynasty should be sought between physical and divine, and the physique is particularly heavy than the divine. Those who are muddy, if you can do it, the relationship between this relationship is also. God is from the spirit of sex, that is, the body is beautiful, and the accumulation is clear. For the word, to do it, it is not respectful, often applying for half a lifetime. There is no one to hear people.

"Mr. Qiangcun has tried" Three Hundred Songs of Songs "to recite the assets of Xiao Ruan Yixin. Among the hundred tops, they must be able to take the essence and use them outside 300. Successful, we must not stop. The endless learning of the husband, but there is no foundation of the beginning?

From the preface of Zhou Yigui, we can see the status and academic value of the words selected in this book. From this, it can be seen that this set of miniature books is sufficient for this choice.

This set of miniature books has 6 "Three Hundred Tang Poems", "Three Hundred Songs", "Three Hundred Songs" and "Book of Songs", "Han Fu" and "Chu Ci". Due to the selection of essence, design essence, and printing, it is a rare boutique in the book market. Therefore, there are multi -edition of the miracles of multiple editions and printed.

This set of miniature books, because it is both beautiful, exquisite, small, and has practicality for reading, it has become a collection of artistic, academicity and collection value. Therefore, this set of pocket books in the Tibetan Museum can be regarded as a treasure in the collection of 7,000 books donated by Mr. Xu Shanlin.
