最近中州古籍出版社出版了由张长法、王淑燕两同志编辑的《二十四史名人言行类编》,可以说是为我们提供了一部二十四史的缩影。编者经过一番苦心的阅读之后,从二十四史中选录了1084个名人的事迹,进行了分类编纂,并将它译成浅显易懂的白话文,呈献给读者,这无疑是当前弘扬中华优秀文化和整理古典文献的一个善举。这里所说的名人,不仅是在历史上曾经建立过某种功勋、对当时或后代发生了相当的影响,而且其言行又堪为人们的楷模。所录1084个人物,可以说是中国历史上的精英,不管他们的地位高低或功业的大小,乃代表了中国历史发展的主流。作者 Recently, Zhongzhou Ancient Books Publishing House published a series of “Twenty-four famous celebrities’ words and deeds” edited by Zhang Changfa and Wang Shuyan. It can be said that we have provided a microcosm of a 24-year history. After a bit of painstaking reading, the editors selected 1084 famous stories from Twenty-Four Histories, compiled them into categories, and translated them into plain and easy-to-read vernacular Chinese for readers. This is undoubtedly the key to carrying forward the excellent A good example of culture and finishing classical literature. The celebrities mentioned here have not only had some meritorious deeds in history, but have had a considerable impact on the present or future generations, and their words and deeds can serve as exemplary models. The 1084 figures recorded can be regarded as the elites in Chinese history. Regardless of their status or the size of their careers, they represent the mainstream of China’s historical development.
