我是扬州人——朱自清自述 (I'm from Yangzhou——Zhu Ziqing's Statement)

(As an essayist succeeding Bing Xin on the preliminary stage of New Literature, Zhu Ziqing got rid of the classicist school's superstition that an aesthetic article can't be written with vernacular Chinese, with actual achievements in writing aesthetic articles. Based on classical literature and in the context of cultural exchange between the East and the West, he created the essay system and style with the national characteristics. These aesthetic articles offer an opportunity for us to learn Zhu's life. The articles in this book, from the I'm from Yangzhou to the Old Things, describe Zhu's life and incarnate his literary achievements. In addition, the 30 photos offered in this book will be bound to show a more aesthetic man to readers.)
