I also love a good challenge. Seeing the kung fu novels made into a tv series made me really want to read the original. And I determined to do it. Now I'm writing my Master's thesis on Louis Cha and his kung fu novels.Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12831169405732892599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3607441034503290367.post-38806234352190546532009-06-24T20:18:48.167-07:002009-06-24T20:18:48.167-07:00Your dedication and your love of this journey are ...Your dedication and your love of this journey are amazing.murat11https://www.blogger.com/profile/00663364407992075130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3607441034503290367.post-78737330402038706362009-04-25T21:25:00.000-07:002009-04-25T21:25:00.000-07:00How many of your Chinese friends learned the entir...How many of your Chinese friends learned the entire Three Character Classic? Most people I know only learn the first six lines or so. More of them learn the Tang Dynasty poems. I agree about the simplified novels with bo po mo fo and the dramas on tv. Where would we be without those great tv dramas?Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12831169405732892599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3607441034503290367.post-61003203687572603782009-04-25T21:14:00.000-07:002009-04-25T21:14:00.000-07:00I think this post really shows an important part o...I think this post really shows an important part of how you became "Chinese"... every Chinese child watches dramas and learns characters from the subtitles and starts reading novels with bo po mo before progressing to character-only novels. and knowing san zi jin is essential.JoAnnaLynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01534953805889881300noreply@blogger.com
