Synopsis "Singing in the Wind (in Chinese)"
As a physicist, the author has particular interests in Chinese literature and history. After retirement, he got enough time to pick up his hobby in liberal arts. Starting from the language culture, then, to history and music. He spent several months on a paper "Talking on Chinese Words and Characters", in which he emphasized the beauty of the Chinese language, as well as the difficulties encountered in the digital age. Following that, he finished a series of papers discussing Chinese verbs, prepositions, as well as idioms, in comparison with English. In the article on Chinese history, he is trying to generalize from the data in different dynasties in a way similar to statistical analysis, and thus to reach some commonsense conclusions. Two papers about the popular songs in the 1950's and 1960's, as well as a discussion about Beijing Opera are also collected in the book.
