Late modern scholar Wu, Chang-shou was famous for publishing Renhe Wushi Shuangzhaolou Jingkan Song-Yuan benci, while Wu's early life and achievements have not been well documented by past scholars. As Wu, Chang-shou's best friend, after Wu died, Zhang, Zu-lain's gathered more than one hundred Wu's articles and letters and then published Songlin Shuzha (a collection of their letters) and Chengdong Changheci (a collection of the Ci works they replying each other in the same rhythm in Suzhou). In recent years, analyzing letters has become a new method for literature research. This paper is dedicated to investigating Wu, Chang-shou's life history on the basis of his letters. It secondly dissects Wu's attitude toward appreciating and measuring the tablet extension, his perspectives about how to collate rare books, and the process of compilation (from poems and Ci works in letters to Ci corpuses). In late Qing and early republican China, the famous artists' painting and calligraphy works were published prevalently, but the publications of the contemporary manuscripts are rare to be found. Finally, by studying the material factors of Songlin Shuzha, such as the decorated stationery, the seal and the lithographic printing version, this paper also aims to discuss the relationship between literature writing, letters and publication. |
