★ Six Stories of Floating Life
Six Chapters of a Floating Life is an autobiographical novel written by Changzhou Shen Fu in the 13th year of Yu Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty (1808). Yang Yinchuan, the brother-in-law of Wang Tao in the Qing Dynasty, found the remnant draft of Six Chapters of a Floating Life in a cold stall in Suzhou, with only four volumes, and gave it to Wang Tao, who was in charge of reporting Wenzunge in Shanghai at that time, and published it as movable type 1877. The second dictionary of a floating life tells Li Bai's poem Preface to the Spring Banquet in Taoliyuan that "the husband of heaven and earth, everything goes against the course;" Time flies, and a hundred generations fly by. And floating like a dream, for the joy of geometry? " .
version
Wen Zunge's block-printed Six Chapters of a Floating Life is the earliest existing block-printed book in China, with Yang's life introduction and Wang Tao's inscription and postscript. Yang Yinchuan said in the preface that "six records are short of two". Wang Tao once said that he read this book when he was young (before 1847), but unfortunately he didn't copy it. When he was in exile in Hong Kong, he often missed it. Wang Tao 1877' s postscript for Zunwenge Edition did not say that he had read the whole book when he was young.
From 65438 to 0936, Lin Yutang translated four chapters of Six Chapters of a Floating Life into English and serialized them in Tianxia Monthly. Later, he published a bilingual booklet with a long preface. Lin Yutang wrote in the preface: "Yun, in my opinion, is the most lovely woman in China literature." I also guess that "there must be a complete book in Suzhou's family collection or second-hand bookstore."
Soon after, a complete manuscript appeared in a cold stall in Suzhou, with five volumes and six volumes, which was actually forged for future generations.
Yu Pingbo wrote Six Chapters of a Floating Life on the basis of the first four chapters of Six Chapters of a Floating Life.
