Mr. Qian Zhongshu (1910-1998) is a famous scholar and writer in contemporary China.His works, such as the widely disseminated "Tan Yi Lu", "Guan Zhui Bian", etc., have become important academic and literary classics in the 20th century.In order to comprehensively present Mr. Qian Zhongshu's academic thoughts and literary achievements, and to facilitate readers' research and study, with the authorization of the author, Joint Publishing organizes and edits this set of "Qian Zhongshu Collection". "Qian Zhongshu Collection" includes the following ten works:

"Talking about Art Records", "Guan Zhui", "Song Poetry Selected Notes", "Seven Supplement Collection", "On the Edge of Life", "Stone Language". Among these writings, all those that have been officially published have been revised according to the revisions in Mr. Qian Zhongshu's self-existing editions.Among them, after the publication of "Talking about Art Records" and "Guan Zhui Bian", Mr. Qian has made many revisions and revisions.Due to various reasons, these amendments and revisions were not included in the main text of the original book when it was reprinted many times later, but were only appended to the end of each book, which is quite inconvenient for readers to read.In this collection, we sorted out these books according to Mr. Qian's wishes, and put all the supplementary parts into the corresponding text.In addition, we have fixed a small number of obvious errors.In order to maintain the original appearance of the history, the author's original sequence, original translated name, and original characters are generally not changed.
