How do you say“武侠小说”in English? And more...

bookworm 于 2000/01/14 01:12:22 发表在 汉英
“不战而屈人之兵”英文最好怎么说？还有
“木秀于林，风必摧之……行出于众，人必非之”
“中学为体，西学为用”
“瘦死的骆驼比马大”
还有新词“网虫”怎么翻成英文？外文里有对应词了吗？
注：这网虫不是一般的网上冲浪者（internet-surfer），而是指上瘾着迷的网虫。

BTW : If someone knows the whereabouts of Prof.James Liu, can you please e-mail
me at mailto://dstephen@openface.ca ? Thanks.
The Prof J.L. I am referring to is the one that taught at Univ of Hawaii in
(I think) 1961-1963, then moved on to Univ of Chicago.
He wrote several books on the poetry of Li Shan Yang etc..

You mean James J. Y. Liu? This is probably a clue.

Please check out this website (http://h-net2.msu.edu/~asia/threads/thrdorientalism.html) and this Professor Lynn might be helpful. If it doesn't work and you desperately :-) want to find out Liu's current whereabouts, I may try some other ways to get the information for you (no guarantee it would work, however). The only thing is I'm afraid you'll have to be patient :-)

Forgot. Yeah Liu has a book in English called "The Chinese Knight-Errant", published in 1967. 中国游侠？

It's not terribly important but I like to see if I can get in touch with
him. The last time I saw the prof was at his home
in Hawaii in 1962 !

If you can't get in touch with him through that Prof. Lynn, please DO let me know 'cause it shouldn't be so difficult for me to ask some professors at my school who might have some ideas where Prof. Liu is now. Good luck!!
(Well, on 2nd thoughts, I can ask anyway, but sorry you'll have to wait for one week or two. I'll let you know how it goes.)

Re: Prof.Liu

Dear Hz,
I got in touch with Prof.Lynn who provided me with many details
concerning the Liu family. Unfortunately Prof.Liu passed away in 1986.
I was told that his former wife Claire now lives in Palo Alto, address unknown.
If I had known of this a year ago I might have attempted to traced her.
It's a case of missed opportunities since I was in Palo Alto for
3 days last August !
I like to thank you for your help. Prof.Lynn's information on Claire
and James has cleared up some puzzles that have been bothering me for many many years.

DS君，
谢谢您告知寻找的结果。几次短笺都不免勾起心中的伤感，却什么都说不出来。谨在此遥致最
真诚和美好的祝愿。如果再有什么也许我能够有所帮助的事，请一定直言，我会非常愿意尽力。
ALL THE BEST!

Dear DS, your song made me cry. A bit embarassing to say this but it's true and hopefully not many people would notice this message on the 2nd page of the forum. I just noticed this afternoon that there's a link to your homepage on 汉英主页 and made a brief visit. I love it, especially those old pictures. Like your postings here of looking for an old friend, they, too, give me a vivid sense of time and history. When I have more free time later, I hope I will come back and visit your "garden" again. Thanks to your question which has initiated all this experience of mine. My sincere gratitude and best wishes!! hz
