Editor's recommendation

The book "Five Emperor's Benji" "Xia Benji" Lecture (hereinafter referred to as "Lecture") published by Tsinghua University Press in April 2022 is a collection of lectures by Mr. Li Xueqin. Based on his 2007 and 2012 The invitations of the Cultural Forum lectured on the recording of "Five Emperor's Benji" and "Xia Benji".

Mr. Li Xueqin is a well -known historian, archeologist, ancient essay scholar, ancient literary scientist and educator in China. The first batch of senior liberal arts professors in Tsinghua University is known as "encyclopedia all -class scholars".

Mr. Li's studies are vast, and his works are. He is committed to the historical and cultural research before the Han Dynasty. He focuses on combining the results of handed down literature with archeology and unearthed literature research results. It has outstanding achievements in many fields such as Oracle, Bronze, Warring States Periods, Jianxue, and related historical and cultural research.

In addition to the achievements in the academic field, Mr. Li is also an excellent educator. In his sixty years of academic career, more than a hundred students have been taught by him. Many of them have already become the industry in the industry The best. It is even more difficult to listen to Mr. Li's course or lecturer at home and abroad.

After being transferred to Tsinghua University, Mr. Li still insisted on setting up courses every semester, and the content of it was definitely different. It attracted many young teachers, scientific researchers and students of many universities and scientific research institutions. His classrooms are always full, and even the enthusiastic students are crowded in the corridor. In order to listen to his lectures, some Beijing scholars did not hesitate to go to Beijing to stay near the school.

△ In 2007, Mr. Li was given "Five Emperor's Benji" at the invitation of the Chinese Cultural Forum

Mr. Li was born in 1933. He was 70 or 80 years old when he started the class "Five Emperor's Benji" and "Xia Benji", but he still prepared lessons before class and devoted himself to the class.

The "Lecture" published this time as the actual record of Mr. Li Xueqin's lecture, which retains Mr. Li's original meaning to the greatest extent, trying to reproduce the serious and lively atmosphere of Mr. Li in the classroom of Mr. Li. The relaxed spoken expression in the book seems to instantly shorten the distance between the pre -Qin ancient books and the current students and readers of the pre -teeth.

By careful arrangement of curriculum and historical materials, Mr. Li explained in a simple explanation of the magnificent ancient history of the five emperors to the summer of the summer. He disassembled the text of the "Historical Records" in an analysis, and was not in the text of the "Historical Records". Instead, he incorporated other important historical records of the contemporary era, the early history of Chinese history, and the same history of ancient and Western history into the course. This teaching style is the unique academic charm of Mr. Li as a "encyclopedia all -class scholar".

△ The Catalog and Catalog of Lecture

Mr. Li's lecture not only spread knowledge, but also continued to convey the research methods and literacy of history, archeology, literature, and ancient text. It can be said that in this thin book, he recorded his experience and experience of hard work for decades, and each of his rigorous inferences, every fun interpretation, and every proper metaphor were all directed. Everyone who is interested in the history and culture of the pre -Qin Dynasty, shows the academic beauty and academic joy he saw.

He seemed to say that he was willing to share all of this with every student who came to listen to him. Even for readers without relevant academic background, opening this "Lecture" will definitely gain a pleasant reading experience. △ Suigong 盨 on the cover of the "Lecture" was identified by Mr. Li Xueqin and read the inscription. It is now hidden in the Beijing Poly Art Museum

Mr. Li's "Lecture" has achieved the combination of academicity and popularity, and is also the forefront research results of these two documents. In order to facilitate readers, the original "Historical Records" recommended by Mr. Li when the book was taught, including "Five Emperor's Benji" and "Xia Benji" and three books. The book also specially includes a few papers of Mr. Li's historical research on the five emperors and the Xia Dynasty, so that readers can better understand the relevant academic views of Mr. Li.

Mr. Li's last lesson when he taught "Xia Benji", the end of the end is:

Everyone often said that it is the golden age of Chinese archeology. Archaeological work, there are more things that can be done. The real golden age is still in the future, and there may be many amazing discoveries about the Xia Dynasty culture. This is completely possible, but it is likely that it is not what I can see.

This is also the last sentence of the text of "Lecture". Reading after ten years is still emotional. In 2019, Mr. Li Xueqin left us forever, but his academic contribution and his love and expectations for historical research and archeological causes still lead us to move forward at all times.
