The complex of writing history

Generally, scholars spend their whole life studying specialized subjects. After accumulating knowledge and being passionate about it, they often have the ambition of "history", that is, writing about their own subject. The idea of ??specializing in history can be called the "history-writing complex" of scholars.

However, some other scholars, such as Wen Yiduo and Lu Xun, also had a long-cherished wish to write a "great literary history of China" spanning thousands of years. However, due to many changes and interference from external forces, their wish was not finally realized and became a "last wish". The disillusionment of the desire to narrate history will be an eternal regret for the scholars themselves and for Chinese academic history.

The original intention of scholars who are keen on writing history is nothing more than to demonstrate their academic insights and academic strength through the writing of specialized histories of disciplines, and to reflect their overall grasp of the research field through writing history, so as to achieve great results in the study of this subject. Occupy a commanding height.
