Yuan Xingpei, director of the Central Institute of Literature and History and president of Peking University National College: Gu Jiegang's 200 reading notes record his academic course, academic inheritance and academic spirit, which are worthy of serious inheritance by historians and researchers engaged in the study of ancient literature and philosophy.

Wang Zhen, deputy director of the Institute of History of China Academy of Social Sciences, said that Gu Jiegang was a master in the New Culture Movement. He studied all his life and worked tirelessly. Since the 1920s, he has made outstanding contributions to the study of ancient history, ancient literature, historical geography and folklore, and has great academic influence at home and abroad. The publication of the Complete Works of Gu Jiegang will play a decisive role in Chinese ancient history, ancient philology, historical geography, folklore and modern academic history, and has high academic and documentary value.

Hu Shi called Gu Jiegang's Wu Ji the first independent Wu Wenxue. Initiate a new era in the history of China literature.

Zhong Jingwen thinks that Gu Jiegang's Wu Ji is not an ordinary collection of ballads, but a collection of ballads with high scientific value.

Gu Jiegang in Xinhuanet's Modern Academic History of China: For the humanities, the 20th century not only started with "doubting the past", but also ended with "stepping out of doubting the past". In fact, The Farthest History of Ancient Times has been pestering China academic circles for a whole century. Whether for or against it, the school of "ancient history discrimination", headed by Gu Jiegang, has actually become an unavoidable existence in China's historical and classical circles in the 20th century.
