The spirit of
单识宇
Nowadays China has been a powerful country in the world and we are all proud of it as a Chinese. But 100 years ago, China is a puny country which is invaded so many times. The writer happens to live in that period. As a Chinese who grew in a foreign country, he showed his opinions about the Chinese spirit from the sidelines. He illustrated the advantages and frailty of Chinese. He is popular with lots of foreigners and the Chinese scholars. Because he has an objective and distinctive point of view.
The whole book can be divided in the following parts, the spirit of Chinese people,the Chinese women, the John Smith of Chinese area. The most significant part is the spirit of Chinese. There is a stimulating sentence in this book, the main idea is you will hate Japanese more and more as you live in the Japan longer(not only the Japan, but also other foreign country), but you will like Chinese more and more as your living time in China increasing. It shows the charm of Chinese characters. In the back mind of the writer, the biggest trait of Chinese character is gentle.
This book describes a distinctive spirit of Chinese to me, and I have learned a lot.
