梁亦之

Liang Yizhi is a Chinese translator about whom little public information is available; details such as nationality, dates of birth and death, and a foreign-language name are not clearly recorded. Judging from the three translated works held in the collection, he is mainly engaged in translating foreign literature and philosophical writings, including Bertrand Russell's The Conquest of Happiness, Mark Twain's The Million Pound Bank Note, and O. Henry's The Cop and the Anthem. These translations span such categories as classic literature, inspirational growth and examination reading; The Million Pound Bank Note, in particular, is included in a must-read series for primary and secondary school students and is aimed at young readers. Overall, Liang Yizhi's choice of texts balances literary classics with works of ideas, and his translations serve general reading and teaching needs, acting as a bridge for introducing foreign classics.
