Correspondence by Leo Tolstoy and Vladimir Vasilievich Stasov about Lao Tzu. (Oct.-Nov.) Stasov collected book reviews of several Lao Tzu translations : Julien, Chalmers, Rémusat, Plaenckner, Harlez, Rosny and Balfour. His verdict about Strauss was unfavorable : "The Professor of Chinese in our University, Ivanovski, says that Strauss is a 'third-rate' sinologist and that he cannot be trusted." He recommende Legge's translation of the Tao te ching. Legge, Chalmers and Harlez were sent to Tolstoy. |
