Taking Chinese characters as an example for ideograph, English, Sumerian cuneiform, and Phoenician as examples for phonography, this article makes a detailed study of th...

McGinn divides the history of Christian mysticism into three successive phases. The third phase, which began in the 17th century, can be called “the age of religious crisis”. At this time, the inner crisis stemmed from an overemphasis on personal experience and inner states, resulting in a break between the mystical element and the wholeness of the Christian life scene.

At the beginning of the twentieth century, China was poor and weak, and surrounded by foreign powers, the situation was as critical as eggs stacked. Like many aspirants who chose to study abroad in the hope of “learning from the barbarians to control the barbarians”, Li Shutong also chose to study in Japan with a view to saving the country through literature and art.
