Main works

Few of Liu Jingchen's works were officially published before his death. According to the current situation, there are mainly two kinds of monographs, one is poetry anthology and the other is printed score. A brief history of the changes of Chinese literature, combined with Shen Yanbing's research on modern literature system, is a history of the changes of Chinese literature, which was published by Shanghai New Culture Publishing House in December of the 10th year of the Republic of China and reprinted many times later. Shi Lue is divided into eleven chapters according to the times. It is likely that he was teaching in Xiamen University at that time. The volume of Da Ruo Yan Zhi, proofread and printed by Chen Jiyan in 1947, consists of 37 leaves, half leaves, 11 lines and 23 words. Juan Duan is named "Yongjia Liu Jingchen Zhen Hui Bian". Although it was re published twice after his death, the arranger did not seek the consent of his family, and was not loyal to the original work, so he made a lot of conjectures. This book is based on Chen Jiyan's proofread edition, which is reorganized and restored to its original appearance. There are 78 chapters of poems from 1931 to 1934, followed by two postscript poems, totaling 80 chapters. The ninth edition of modern seal cutting, with the title of "Liu Zhenhui Yincun" in the heart of the edition, has a total of 60 seals. The above two volumes were both published in Shanghai in the year of the Republic of China, but they have not been reprinted. there are four kinds of books that were written before they were published: "Zhenhui Shicao", with the title of "jingchenrucun". There are 179 works of Jinhua from 1918 to 1921. Among them, only a few chapters such as "peace pen song" have been published. "Inscribed plum jueju" volume, 19 leaves. At the end of the volume, Liu Jingchen wrote the manuscript. Each volume contains 50 pieces, all of which are seven unique. There are only ten leaves in Li Cheng Ji. Under the title of "Zhenhui writing". This is a collection of 40 poems from September 1944, when Wenzhou left Yongjia County for the third time after the fall of the Japanese army, to July 1945, when it took refuge in Shangtang. The first draft of Zhen Hui Shi Lu was copied on dark green paper. It has eleven leaves and has not yet been bound. The former author's quotation states that the works were deleted and preserved in 1959, and they are 61 works since 1949, and the poems after 1955 are not included in the transcription. The two manuscripts are also recorded on the black green paper. There is another title in four chapters of Jichou (1949) and Gengyin (1950), two leaves. It is obvious that the author is unable to continue due to physical and other reasons.

Liu Jingchen on Calligraphy

After reading Hu Lancheng's autobiography this life, the writing is fresh, mature and outstanding. There is a chapter about his escape from Wenzhou after the war of resistance against Japanese aggression. It records his friendship with Liu Jingchen, Xia Chengtao and Wu Lushan. Liu Jingchen once said that Wang rongnian's Calligraphy: "words should always have flavor. Rongnian's words are tasteless." He said of Zheng Manqian's painting: "Manqian's original talent in painting is not bad in the early days, but it's a bit of a farce recently. The more she paints, the worse she gets." He once commented on the poems of the famous family of Yueqing: "since you asked me, my friend should be frank. I think your anthology might as well be engraved. There is no need to engrave poems. None of your poems are poems." Wang rongnian had a deep mastery of Zhang Cao. He once heard master Xiao Yunchun recall that master Zhang Pengyi had given him great admiration. Hu Lancheng said that his "crazy words are incomparable. Maybe his words are like Xiong Shili's Buddhism. I don't know where there is always something wrong." Zheng Manqian is Zhang Hongwei's cousin and Song Meiling's painting teacher. She is very famous. Hu commented: "when it comes to being crazy, rebellious and absurd, it's not enough to be talented. Its talent has been killed. Although it is typical, it's all gone. Therefore, Tang Bohu, Xu Wenchang and Jin Shengtan's poems are not good, and Wang Tong's works are hard to be trusted. The strange changes in Chinese characters are all good words, but they are not known to them. " To think about it, today's "fashion" of all sages can not be regarded by Liu and Hu. Note: Wang rongnian (1889-1951), a native of Tianhe Town, Yongqiang, Ouhai, Wenzhou, was named Tiantu and Meian. He graduated from Beijing law school and studied in Meiji University. After liberation, he was employed by Wenzhou Municipal People's government as a member of the municipal cultural relics protection and Management Committee. He is good at phonology, and has written poetry notes of chiyuelu, yuechaoji, and Daluo zayong, etc. He is good at calligraphy. He works at the same time as Zheng, Xing and Cao, especially Zhang Cao. In the 1930s, Shanghai Commercial Press published the book preface of Wang mei'an to Chu suiliang. In addition, the epitaph of Shen Jichang in Tianmen, Hubei Province, written by Zhang Taiyan, is extention. Hu asked Liu about his comments on Ma Yifu and said, "Ma Yifu doesn't write for others, but he has to pay more money for it. He's always too used to it. Some people ask for Su Shi's words to go back to his old age and get a basket of them. Writing is nothing more than an affair. How can there be such a thing as Ma Yifu? " Zhang Taiyan also refused to call him Mr. Ren, but wrote the title "so and so came to ask for words, and wrote this and it". Liu Jingchen said: "Zhang Taiyan is a kind of cute, as arrogant, but different from Ma Yifu's seriousness.". Liu's favorite book is Hongyi. triggered by Hu Lancheng's recollection of Liu Jingchen's writing, I reread the commemorative collection of Liu Jingchen's Liu Festival compiled by Yang Ruijin. Mr. Liu is a man of iron and upright character. Huang Binhong presented Liu Jingchen's landscape axis, and Kuan Yun said: "Mr. Zhenhui's calligraphy and painting are beautiful, which is as wonderful as painting sand. I'm also stubborn. I'm not a good person in the world. I'm happy with the ancient method, but I'm not confined to my predecessors. I'm just like you. I don't know what Daya thinks? It's just a gimmick. " A fan presented by Ma Yifu to Liu Jingchen said: "cover Zhang music in the field of Dongting, birds soar high, fish dive deep when they hear, is it the sound of a chime or the music of clouds? If you can judge yourself and forgive things, you will always have no problems. " Mr. Liu Jingchen's son, Mr. Liu Jie, is a famous professor of history. He is also proud and does not flatter the powerful. During the cultural revolution, Dai Naishi, Mr. Chen Yinke, was criticized and beaten. When asked what he thought, he replied, "it's my honor to be criticized and beaten on behalf of my teacher!" See Lu Jiandong's the last twenty years of Chen Yinke. In the anti rightist period, Liu Jie made an astonishing remark: "in the past, emperors still issued an edict against themselves. Chairman Mao didn't make a self-examination, but he didn't know the feudal emperors." It is said that Liu Jie has passed the year of knowing the destiny. When he comes to Chen's house to see Chen Yinke on New Year's day, he still adheres to the traditional kowtow ceremony. He is meticulous and looks like no one else. The two generations of the Liu family can be said to have the same style. By Chen Wei
