Zheng was barely a philosopher at work

Zheng was a person who worked at work, his name was Xiangheng, a native of Chaoyang, Guangdong. He was a forgotten scholar of ancient history and philosophy, and an English translator of pre-Qin texts, who studied in Europe and the United States at the beginning of the 20th century, first at Harvard to learn philosophy, then at Oxford to study history, and then at Tsinghua University, where he taught after his return to China. 1926 saw the establishment of the Department of Political Science at Tsinghua, which had only four professors, of whom Zheng was one, and where he could be considered one of the pioneers of the discipline of political science in China. Later, he went south to Shanghai, abandoned his studies to become a businessman, and became the manager of a bank in Shanghai. He had a good position that was envied by others, and built his own gorgeous villa in the center of the city. But he did not indulge in luxury, because his ambition did not lie there. He devoted much of his spare time to the collation and translation of Chinese antiquities, and later simply resigned as bank manager, devoting the best years of his life to this cause. According to his published plans, he intended to organize and translate as many as 102 Chinese ancient books, including the Thirteen Classics and the doctrines of the sons. Editorial Translation Achievements

Cheng, who had been working abroad for many years, knew that foreigners had little understanding of traditional Chinese culture, and therefore wanted to take on the responsibility of a "bridge" by comparing traditional Chinese culture with Greek philosophy and history, to find out the root causes of the history of the East and the West, and through this, to promote the essence of Chinese culture to the world. Judging from the books he has already compiled and published, such as The Four Books, Sun Tzu's Art of War, and Yan Danzi, his workflow is to first select the best texts, annotate them, number each passage for easy retrieval, and then translate them into the vernacular. The whole book plus the new style punctuation, before the book has a preface to the book, the book with an index, such as all the books of the era, the author, the version of the problem, are determined clearly, and then on this basis to be translated into English. Chinese, English each out of a book, the layout is exactly the same, in order to prepare readers to search against. Thus, whether it was for the Chinese to learn the ancient languages on their own, or for foreigners to understand Chinese history, Zheng麐's work could be described as providing a simple and easy-to-use "bridge. In order to deepen the interest of foreign readers in the study of traditional Chinese culture, Zheng also worked on a book in English, "A New Treatise on the Proofreading of Chinese Ancient Books," which described in layman's terms the methods of studying traditional Chinese culture. Zheng's work was highly praised at that time.　In the 1950s and 1960s, the World Bookstore in Taiwan across the strait reprinted and published Zheng's translations of The Analects of Confucius, Tao Te Ching, and Sun Tzu's The Art of War, etc. What was Zheng working on in the mainland at this time? It seems that there is no literature about it, but by chance I found some clues about Zheng's situation in an article written by Mr. Wang Yuanhua.

Before the Cultural Revolution, Wang Yuanhua was quarantined and censored, and his movement and writing were greatly restricted, so he put a lot of energy into reading and studying Shakespeare with his wife, Zhang Ke, who was "awaiting conviction". He and his wife, Zhang Ke, devoted a great deal of energy to reading and studying Shakespeare. At that time, their financial situation was not very good, they could not buy a lot of books, many documents could only be borrowed, proficient in western literature, Zheng was working in the vicinity of Wang's house at that time, so it also became the object of borrowing books. 1998 January, Wang Yuanhua, Zhang Ke couple in Shanghai Education Publishing House published Shakespeare Interpretation of the book, Wang Yuanhua in the Preface, specifically mentioned Zheng worked at the work of the. Wang Yuanhua wrote: "Zheng was my father who worked at the work of his father, he used to teach in several universities in the north, and after the liberation, he was placed in the Counselor's Office of the municipal government. He was so proficient in English that Cao Weifeng often consulted him when translating Shakespearean plays. Most of the important English translations of the Selected Works of Mao came from his handwriting. During the Cultural Revolution, the rebels said that he had translated Yugong as Stupid Old Man, shaved his head, and punished him with a license to sweep the streets every day. He lived near my house, and I even saw him when he was sweeping the streets." It is unknown whether Mr. Zheng He He worked eventually survived that decade of catastrophe? Editorial section of the use of bookmarks pioneer

Cheng worked on Western literature also has a very deep attainment, he studied in Europe and the United States when he had purchased a large number of literary masterpieces, and many of them are printed on special paper numbered limited edition, very precious. I have seen many original works of Western literature collected by Zheng in used bookstores, and I remember that one of them was Shakespeare's work, Venus and Adonis, which was the first work published by Shakespeare, and it has a special commemorative significance. Zheng's collection was published in 1905 in a special paper edition of only 510 copies, and Zheng's copy was No. 149. Most of the books that Zheng worked on were labeled with his homemade bookplate, featuring a few clumps of bamboo lined with plum blossoms, which has a deep and meaningful meaning. From time to time, Zheng should be one of the earliest Chinese literati to use bookmarks.
