About the author

Gao Yuanbao, about whom limited public information is available, has written in such fields as literary studies, literary appreciation, essays, and Western philosophy, with six published works to date. His representative works include Six Lectures on Lu Xun (Revised and Expanded Edition), which offers close reading and interpretation of Lu Xun's thought and literature; A Trivial Record of a Career: From Mischievous Boy to Professor, which follows the thread of personal experience in a plain and warm tone; he also contributed to A History of Modern Chinese Literature (Third Edition) and edited A Reader of Foreign Literary Classics (Boya Guided Reading Series). In addition, Heidegger Speaks Thus: Man Dwells Poetically presents his introduction to Western philosophy, while Occasional Remarks on Current Writings collects his essays and sketches. His writing balances scholarship with readability and will appeal to readers interested in modern Chinese literature and the humanities.
