Lin Xi didn't seem to hear it. He just looked at the negotiations and saw that their stalls were not really so old-fashioned. They only had rare books of calligraphy and painting. On the contrary, they had everything. There were four treasures of study, jade, ceramics, wood, and even many bronzes, but most of them were ancient books of calligraphy and painting, which were more popular. Lin Xi was the only one who knew kung fu Three groups of people have already come to a stall to pick up the yellow book on the stall. I don't know whether it's true or false, or what's the age of a dream of Red Mansions.
Speaking of this dream of Red Mansions, it should be recorded as follows: Taoist Kongkong listened to this and thought for a while. He reviewed the story of the stone again. Because he saw that the gist of the story was not only talking about love, but also recording the truth. He never suffered from obscenity, so he copied it from the beginning to the end and heard the legend of the world. Since then, Taoist Kongkong has changed his name to love monk, and changed the story of stone to the record of love monk. Kongmeixi in Donglu was entitled "treasure of wind and moon". Later, because of Cao Xueqin's mourning for Hongxuan, he read ten years, added and deleted five times, compiled a catalogue, divided into chapters, and then titled twelve hairpins in Jinling.
I believe that all people are familiar with this record. Cao Xueqin's works, also known as the story of stone and the fate of gold and jade, are of great literary value. Unfortunately, the latter part has been lost.
There are 120 chapters in a dream of Red Mansions. The following 40 chapters are written by Gao E, but there is also a legend that Cao Xueqin finished the last 40 chapters, but no one published them and spread them among the people. They are mixed in today's dream of Red Mansions, and they don't know whether they are true or false.
No matter who is true or not, because of this legend, the ancient books of a dream of Red Mansions are increasingly rising. Some people say that Cao Xueqin has written the last forty chapters, while others say that they have not. But whether they have written or not, they can not hide the value of a dream of Red Mansions. Some people hope to find out the last forty chapters written by Cao Xueqin from the ancient books, and the value will not be able to be stored.
But the legend is a legend after all, true or false. Who knows, it is a fool's behavior to exhaust one's life's efforts with a legend.
It seems that the three groups of people just now should also know this legend, so they would pay special attention to it. However, the things in the legend are so easily encountered by him, it is not a legend.
As for the value of rare ancient books, many people think it's vague. They don't know why they are valuable or even priceless.
Some may ask what is the definition of rare ancient books.
Zhang Zhidong, a bibliographer of the Qing Dynasty's editions, explained the rare ancient books as follows: first, the full version, without abridgement or missing volume; second, the refined version, with precise proofreading and annotation, with few mistakes; third, the old version, namely the woodcut version, the transcribed version and the thread bound version, which have been handed down for a long time. The contemporary scholars' explanations of rare ancient books are as follows: first, they are old and cultural relics; second, they have exquisite printing illustrations and artistic quality; third, they have brilliant contents and academic materials. The so-called "rare edition" originally refers to the earliest version or the most perfect version.
Among them, the original edition is always the first choice of senior collectors because of its fine carving and exquisite use of paper and ink. Secondly, most of the existing ancient books are of this kind. The first is that the original edition has been lost, and the second is that the reprinted edition has become the only one in the world; the second is that the reprinted edition, which is well-known and has high artistic value, has been carved by famous book engraving institutions. The last one is the shadow engraving, which first copies the original engraving from famous calligraphers, and then carves it on the previous edition. This kind of engraving mostly copies the original engraving from the song and Yuan Dynasties. Because this kind of engraving is mostly in the hands of famous calligraphers, it is also a rare product in the collection of ancient books.
When judging whether the rare ancient books are worth collecting, what we often value is not its use value, but its version value, that is, the value of the existing form of books. Generally speaking, the older the book, the higher the collection value. Because books in the process of printing and publishing, it is inevitable that there will be a variety of errors. So the earlier the version comes out, the closer it is to the original.
The collection value of ancient books, the song edition of ancient books is the most excellent, the writers are all from the famous calligraphers, carving for skilled masters, the ink is clean and moist. The song edition has been handed down to the world for a long time. If it is a rare edition of the song edition, it will be of higher value. If it is read and annotated by celebrities, its price will be even more incalculable. Although there are many books in Qing Dynasty, there are few excellent ones, among which the price of Library plate is the highest.
Moreover, since ancient times, the inheritance of history and culture has never been an object, let alone word of mouth. It has become a later legend. Moreover, it relies on the transmission of words. That's why there is a myth. After Cangjie created the words, the legend of heaven rain millet ghost crying at night is because of the appearance of words, which breaks the code of inheritance.
Later, paper was created, and there was the saying of respecting and cherishing calligraphy and paper. As a character, the meaning of paper is self-evident. Therefore, the rare ancient books formed naturally have their unique value.
Even to a certain extent, the value of rare ancient books is far more than anything else. There is nothing comparable to the inheritance they carry.
When the objects are gone, they are dead. They carry a part of the culture. But when these rare ancient books are gone, it is the whole culture that is cut off. Dead objects can be resurrected. How can culture be resurrected.
This is the reason why Lin * * Liulichang didn't go to Panjiayuan. Even after he came here, he felt that what filled the air was not the commercial atmosphere of Philistines, but the cultural heritage that had been accumulated for 5000 years. Maybe any stall or ancient book he picked up was the lost culture.Of course, it's just his illusion. If you want to find a leak here, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. All the things on the stall here go through countless hands. If there is a big leak, it would have been picked up by someone long ago. How could it have been until Lin * *.
Fang ran can't rule out that after the big wave, there are some fish who have missed the net and hidden very deeply.
Lin Xi came here today mainly for his insight.
"Lin Xi, I'm talking to you. Do you hear me?"
Seeing Lin Xi in a daze and ignoring himself at all, Tong Yan was a little annoyed and stamped her feet. She looked very delicate.
"All of you have come here. Let's go in and have a look. You should watch the deep meaning, but don't take him away."
Said Linxi drill into the crowd, like a stream into the river, no matter whether Tongyan agreed or not, angry Tongyan face red, gnashing his teeth and shouting: "Linxi, you wait for me."
However, Lin Xi had already gone far away, and the crowd was so noisy that she could not hear him at all. She had no choice but to vent all her anger on Zhou zhe: "idiot, what's the matter with you? Hurry up
