As a graduate student in my twenties,I had consulted mimeograph copy History of Chinese architecture,and the classics like‘Why is the Research of Chinese Architecture’in the Bulletin of the Society for Research in Chinese Architecture(SRCA).In the wake of the critical refection throughout these years,Liang Sicheng’s idea of architecture for me is open-ended lore abreast of time:Being acquainted with the modern knowledge while committing to our tradition,especially when it comes to a nation state of millennia whose architecture was transforming into a new epoch.In so doing,Liang possessed advanced thinking prior to his period but never became arrogant toward his contemporaries.
