Chapter 267: The Evil Society I

Subtitle of this chapter: Call for our Master Yuan

………………………………………………

May 28, 1921, 6 p.m., Cambrig, England. (Author's note: There is a five-hour time difference between New York and London.) )

At about the same time that our Master Yuan was scrambling to find his way home, his "my friend Xu Zhimo" rode a bicycle to a small building next to Cambridge University.

Compared with Yuan Hongji, who "Liang Yuan is good but has no king pesticides", Xu Weisen is really a little happy.

Because compared to New York's sin city, which stenges of vulgar copper, Cambridge is a mecca of scholarship with a timeless smell of books.

What's more, at this point in time, Xu Zhimo not only got acquainted with the twenty-eight beauty, but also had a good wife and mother who served him in his daily life. This kind of blessing is really unbearable for ordinary people.

In addition to his rich love life, he met many like-minded friends after coming to the UK.

By the way, he didn't know that his friend Yuan Yanqi had established an evil organization in New York, the SCP Foundation, but his friend Yuan Yanqi knew that he had joined an "evil" organization, The Heretics Society, in the United Kingdom.

Heretics translates Chinese heretics as heretics, heretics, and heretics, so when you hear the name, you know that this society is not very serious......

Well, quite the opposite. This is a very academic, literary and intellectual society, called "evil society" in Chinese, also translated as "new society".

Because the founders positioned this society as an unorthodox academic society, this is why it has this very evil name.

“Hi,Hamilton!” There happened to be a guest at the door who had just arrived.

This person has a large forehead, sparse hair, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and looks very elegant. When he saw Xu Zhimo coming, he took the lead in saying hello.

Hamilton is naturally Xu Zhimo's English name.

Hamilton Hsu also waved happily: "Charles, you are here too." ”、

Charles Kay Ogden (1889 –1957) was a philosopher of language, poet, writer, and literary critic. In fact, it is easier for a linguist to be a poet, writer and literary critic.

Don't forget, Tolkien, the author of The Lord of the Rings, was a linguist.

His father was a teacher at the prestigious Russell School, and he also embarked on an academic career, graduating from Magdalen College, Cambridge University in 1915 with a Master of Arts degree. Founded in 1428, the college has a long history.

It was this Ogton who, together with several radical young scholars, founded the Society of Cults in 1909. He also founded the eekly Cambridge Magazine in 1912.

The two said hello, and Xu Zhimo got off his bicycle and walked on the side of the road...... In 1921, the British countryside was still quite safe, in fact, a hundred years later, it was fine, but the big cities...... Hehe.

Together, they knocked on the door of the small villa. The door was opened by a young woman with short hair and a sweet face.

The two men took off their hats and saluted:

"Catherine, good night (good evening)."

"Hello, Ms. Mansfield."

I heard the thirty-year-old woman laugh and say in English with a strange accent: "Charles, Hamilton." The two of you were the earliest. ”

The name Katherine Mansfield is unfamiliar to the Serisians. But many people have heard of the elegant name "Manshufer".

Therefore, Chinese is indeed broad and profound, and can not only translate Mansfield into Manshufeier, but also translate the Monroe Morroe into Monroe.

And this name is exactly what Xu Zhimo translated into Chinese.

The famous female writer born in New Zealand, famous in England and with a style similar to that of Russia, is the hostess of this place.

When the word "Bohemia" was mentioned in later generations, some petty bourgeoisie who did not learn and did not know anything about the Czech Republic would definitely not think of it, and it is estimated that they did not even know the Kingdom of Bohemia.

They think of Puccini's opera La Bohème and the so-called "bohemian" way of life. In fact, the so-called "literary youth" do not look for jobs well or go home to farm, wandering in the big city to pursue their artistic dreams.

And Manjufeld is a practitioner of the bohemian way of life, in a sense, she is the predecessor of Hemingway's "lost generation".

One thing to be warned, though, is that to truly enjoy the "bohemian" life, you have to have a father who is a banker, like the authoress. Don't be so poor as Hemingway that you can only satisfy your hunger with free coffee.

To tell the truth, our Master Yuan is really ungraceful, and he doesn't like anything "bohemian" or Manshufeier.

Because this beautiful writer is too "Russian", the inner world of the characters in her books is full of entanglements and struggles, which is very Tolstoy and "dragging the play is dragging a little bit of Vsky". (Author's note: drag the play...... Ski, of course, is Dostoevsky. )

She is known for her short stories, and her short stories are so "Chekhov" that some people say that she is plagiarizing Chekhov.

In short, she herself said that she was a Russian. And the Russian literary community also believes that Catherine Mansfield's works are the most sincere compliments to the great masters of Russian literature.

In fact, there was no such gathering on the original historical line, and Manshufeier was not a member of the evil society, and Xu Zhimo did not visit her until 1922.

But recently, there has been a red and purple Neo-Yuan in the west!

So his "my friend Xu Zhimo" was surprised to find that he had become a Neo-Yuan expert.

In fact, Xu Zhimo was not shallow enough to show the relationship between him and Yuan Yanqian everywhere. However, the British first noticed our Master Yuan not because of him, but because of his "9 Commentaries on the Democratic Party".

In these political articles, Yuan Yanqian scolded the British Empire as bloody, and of course was counterattacked by the British press. The Times also published an unsigned article saying that the Chinese was not just "an opium ghost who smoked Aphron and lost his mind."

Of course, Xu Zhimo has to defend his friend, and his circle of friends knows that he is Yuan Yanqian's old classmate and good friend.

After that, the ones that we wrote by Master Yuan came to England...... That's right, most of them are still pirated, and he didn't receive a dime from his old man.

British and American culture is from the same source, and his ability to sell in the United States is naturally very popular in England.

In addition, he has recently received the blessing of Albert Einstein, and he is like "a demon star in British and American literature".

Therefore, Yuan Yanqian has not yet set foot in the UK, and has already become famous on the three islands.

Therefore, Xu Zhimo became the first person to interpret Master Yuan's works!
