Who were the great bibliophiles in ancient China?

1. Ye Sheng was a famous bibliophile in Ming Dynasty, and his library Zhuzhutang was "rich in books, reaching tens of thousands of volumes". Ye Sheng often tells his children and grandchildren to love books and reading. He said: "There is nothing wrong with the limited talent of children and grandchildren. However, they must study. The poor godson lives on food, but there are enough books! " Second, Xu was a famous bibliophile in the early Qing Dynasty, and he loved books and reading since childhood. At that time, many people just wanted to leave more land property, gold treasures and pavilions to their descendants, but he said to his sons, "In my opinion, no matter what property is left to future generations, it is inevitable that there will be a lost day and it will not be enjoyed endlessly for a long time. So what should I leave you? " Xu Xueqian pointed to a room full of books and said with a smile, "The one that was passed on is true!" And immediately named the library "handed down building". Obviously, in Xu's view, real estate, treasures, jade and other material wealth will always be exhausted, and the knowledge in books will never be exhausted. Third, there is a memorial hall in the library of Zhang Jinwu, a bibliophile in the late Qing Dynasty, which means "It is better to leave a legacy full of gold than to leave it once"; Yang Yizeng's library is called Haiyuan Pavilion. He compared books to the ocean. "It is impolite to learn without looking at the sea." But "looking at the sea, living in it for a long time, not knowing where to go, is also the precept of scholars." Scholars should explore the source of the sea and know where it comes from. "From here, we can easily see that books are indeed an ocean of knowledge. As long as we "explore the sea", we will certainly find an inexhaustible source of knowledge! 4. Tianyi Pavilion in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, built in the 40th year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty (156 1), is the oldest existing library in China. This is a two-story building with six rooms wide. The upper floor is divided into cabinets according to classics, history, books and collections, and the lower floor is used for reading books and collecting stone carvings. The building opens windows in the north and south, and the air circulates. There are doors on both sides of the bookcase, which can not only take books back and forth, but also ventilate and prevent mold. 5. The Wen Yuan Pavilion in the Forbidden City in Qing Dynasty was a library specially built for the collection of Four Ku Quanshu, and its housing system and bookshelf style were similar to those of Tianyi Pavilion. 6. Generally speaking, China's ancient official books were for a few people, which was in line with the historical era when culture was mastered by a few people, and private books also protected culture to a great extent.
