About the author

Gao Yi: public information is limited, and his nationality, dates of birth and death, and educational background cannot be confirmed. Judging from the five works held in the library, his writing interests span several fields. The World of Books on the Eve of the French Revolution explores book history and reading culture, while A History of Sino-French Cultural Exchange traces the course of cultural interaction between China and France. Wenjing: Echo Valley (3 volumes) reflects his sustained attention to humanistic thought, and Foucault's Life and Loves turns to Western philosophy and intellectual biography. Another work, Optical Foundations of Trace Examination, shows that his range also extends to popular science and forensic technology. Overall, Gao Yi's works combine historical research with cultural analysis, cover a wide range of subjects, and often unfold through specific cases or figures; they should appeal to readers interested in world history, Western philosophy, and cross-cultural exchange.
