# 李一氓出版二三事 

1981年3月早春，第二届古籍整理出版规划会议在京西宾馆召开，我第一次见到李一氓同志。从前也听说过：记不清是不是我大哥1941年回到安徽太湖家乡时，听说有一位过江参加过四老爷（新四军）的乡亲。大哥秘密走访过就住在不远的农民老雷，两人谈起许多新四军的事。大哥当时十分神秘，那时和新四军接触是要砍头的。只

依稀记得大哥说起四老爷里有一个李一氓。 

我见到李一氓时，人们叫他李老，这时已年老体衰发胖了。但作报告讲古籍，带着四川腔调，却很有精神，有那么一股子劲，使与会的人也都觉得有劲了。作完报告，他叼着一支大烟斗走向与会者，我也凑上去和他聊几句，我没有忘记问他在新四军的事。 

李老对北京古籍的整理出版抓得很紧。这年6月3日，即古籍会议后不到两个月，李老就叫我去汇报。我到万寿路中联部他的办公室去，中华书局的李侃、赵守俨在座。我这时有的讲，因为古籍开会时，我就走访了不少北京和外地代表――都是熟悉古书的文史专家，这对我们的选题、组稿、审稿都非常有利，而且选定了几部稿子。李老高兴地听，吸着大烟斗，不时插话。记得他说“热河密札”可不可以搞？我说当然好。以后我多次去北大历史系找陈庆华，请他搜集资料。这是晚清头等大事，即李老在《避暑山庄图序》中写的“如咸丰死于避暑山庄，而立同治，杀肃顺，就都是在这里预谋的。”当时慈禧和咸丰弟老六恭亲王联手，与遗诏顾命的肃顺八大臣在避暑山庄的斗争激烈。只是慈禧的密谋得逞，加上老七奕?在密云逮捕了肃顺，时局在那拉氏专权下越来越糟了。这好选题，我们没抓紧出书。 

以后，我觉得李老总想为他人做一点事，哪怕一点点，他都尽力去做。1983年他把自己珍藏的《启祯宫词》送给我们，后来又送来陈师曾的《北京风俗图》。这两次都结出丰硕的成果，尤其《北京风俗图》到2005年还重新再版。 

李老是国务院古籍整理出版规划小组的组长，加上那些年常听人说起他参加过南昌起义、万里长征，还是郭沫若的入党介绍人，心里的李老是个大干部了。但时而又想起他在古籍会上讲：“我开会像英国议会，可以听也可以不听。”这话我一直记得，因为我觉得它不平常。仔细想这话是尊重与会的人，也提醒开会的主持人，你讲的要让人愿意听下去。 

这样，我对李老感到亲切。1983年1月我们在崇文门饭店开座谈会，大冷天，他也来了。第一个发问“古书卖得怎样？”我只管编书不管卖书，这下为难了。幸而管发行的老金说：“书卖得不错。北京古籍卖得动。”李老听了很欣慰。原来“文革”刚过，十年不印书，只卖一种书，人们多需要书啊！ 

1985年10月、1986年5月，我两次应约到李老家里去。我到东城贡院邻近城墙（今二环路）的独门院落，只见花木扶疏，新建的房子里插架之物不少。第一次记不得去做什么。第二次记得李老要为文艺报写关于广告的文章。我谈起北京帽店黑猴公柜上踞一大黑猴，万春堂参茸鹿角号门上挂一大鹿角，初级广告。前门棋盘街左右明代店铺挂幌子。清代西四沙锅店卖祭祀的白肉，店里桌椅用白木，有幌子叫“过午不候”，上午就卖完了，是精心做广告了。 

李老看重古籍整理人才。我知道的，1982年开会，京西宾馆304室同住的上海学者胡道静校订《梦溪笔谈》、湖南学者钟叔河编辑《走向世界》丛书都是李老邀请来的。还有我的小同乡，于安徽太湖从1939年春到1943年夏同一课堂的孔凡礼，曾多次得到李老的帮助，如李老为凡礼延誉，题写书名《范成大年谱》著。此时凡礼是北京三中的教员，住在西城育德胡同一个小煤厂旁的小屋里。李老知道后，想法分配凡礼一套房。李老的秘书沈锡麟也为此事操心，和我商量。要分房得到古籍小组去工作，实际上列名中华书局。凡礼也来征求我的意见。我也曾帮助凡礼来京，但考虑这样是否影响他的著述，他正在搞三苏的集子、年谱等。我请他自己作主，他犹豫不定，终于没有去中华书局工作。后来自己花不少钱在大兴黄村买了房，医疗条件也欠缺，错失了良机。 

我不知道李老帮助抢救过多少珍贵的古籍。我只知1984年，他为红楼梦研究，建议专家去列宁格勒弄回清代流传俄国的钞本。但他并不认为只要是古籍就都好，就都要出版。比如他就不赞成影印《四库全书》。很简单，1932年学者洪业就庆幸当时没有影印成功，洪业说《四库》所收书已经刊印的，已有9/10以上。到了上世纪80年代中后期，整理过标点的刊印古籍远比《四库》没有标点不易读通为好。大概李老也为机关精打细算，要出几千套《四库全书》，大小机关、学校、文化单位为争脸面，抢着去买，大把花钱，恐怕到头没有几个人认真去读，岂不太浪费了有用的资金？像我们出版社花了5000元买了一套台湾印的《四库》，堆在一间大屋子里，我去看过两回，双锁封存的书上落满了灰尘。 

我也曾根据李老的意见，写过一篇《〈四库全书〉该不该重印》的文章，刊在1988年6月19日的《光明日报》上，用甲乙对话充分阐明双方的利弊。后来听说李老提起这篇文章，询问是谁写的。当时我在中国书店帮忙，用了“钟初”的笔名，李老以为是中华书局的人，去问也找不到人。其实我还没有说出《四库》的毛病。今天看到李老在《明正德本杨文敏公集》中说：明杨荣的这本书“在清代属‘抽毁’类书，以第八卷〈平胡颂〉、第十一卷〈赠游击将军杨宗道序〉俱有偏谬语。”正是以四库销毁、抽毁古书的证明，可惜我未能像李老这样有研究地指出。 

李老出生于1904年，我比他小21岁，像思念父执兄长一样怀念他。敬重他是出生入死战斗的一个老兵，有共产主义坚定信念，到老年时还在忧虑时弊：“十几年来不知怎的，造成一种与这个相反的风气（指邓拓放弃中央委员的提名），真不好说了。”“可惜这些年都不讲基本功了。” 

读李老的《击楫集》（中华书局出），才知他是有功力和才华的诗人、词人。“四十年间云岭怨，皖南山色太苍苍”，又那么重感情，至老不忘千古奇冤的战友、烈士。 

李老喜藏书因而博览群书。我读《徐霞客游记》，看到徐氏到云南丽江为木氏客人，不知头尾。李老考证木氏原西域人，名“阿得”，明初赐姓木氏为丽江土司。列表木氏二十二代，而帮助徐霞客的是木增，字生白，著有《云淡墨》，即嘱徐氏审定。而木增的五代祖木公字恕卿，因和谪贬云南的杨升庵交游始有文名。于此得知杨升庵影响了木氏几代欢喜文采。 

还有我读《一氓题跋》（三联书店版，本文引李老文均引自此书）感到愉悦，来了精神。多美的文字，叫我读了又想读。李老实杂文家，不妨抄一段： 

“气数――气数就是脱离轨道的历史，把燕铭同志贬到济南，后来干脆投之‘清室’，直到一九七四年。这时一根针都不准保有，更说不上刻用的刀了。一九四九年以前，没有用功夫去刻图章，是因为顾不上。这些年不刻图章则完全是被动的，强制的了。我不可惜这些年他没有刻一方图章，我可惜他在这段时间没有为党为人民做出他可以做的事情。可能有这么一个闲章在他心里――‘长太息以掩涕兮，哀民生之多艰！’” 

李老写他的老友，1975年十三人学习班的同学――齐燕铭。从老友1919年开始刻印说起，由刻印表现齐燕铭的一辈子，写得动人啊！

### Editorial: Website woes test administration's credibility

  


President Obama was right Monday when he said we did not wage this long and contentious battle [over the Affordable Care Act] just around a website. Thats not what this was about. 

No, it was not. But the credibility of his administration does in fact now rest in part on whether the federally designed site used in 36 states to search and sign up for health insurance can be fixed in reasonably short order. As it is, that site simply isnt up to the task. 

Its not as if its architects should have felt rushed. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) passed in 2010 and administration officials have been touting the virtues of the Web portal for months, claiming consumers would be able to shop with ease and then enroll. 

Indeed, the president compared the site to Amazon.com in terms of simple navigation as recently as Oct. 1, the date of its debut. 

And theres a more substantive reason for concern than political embarrassment. The deadline to sign up for coverage to begin Jan. 1 is Dec. 15, and the initial enrollment period winds down March 31, after which some who go uninsured could be subject to fines. 

The biggest problem now is that the glitches and other technical problems will discourage all but the most eager applicants from signing up for insurance in the exchanges  meaning that older people with pre-existing medical problems will persist in applying while younger or healthier people will throw up their hands and give up, an expert with the American Enterprise Institute told The Fiscal Times. 

And while the administration says it is bringing in the best and brightest to fix the problems, the issues appear serious. The New York Times reported last weekend that numerous people involved in the project said the [Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services] did not have the expertise to do the job and did not fully understand what it entailed. 

Here in Colorado, the Connect for Health Colorado website appears to have had a smoother debut. Spokesman Ben Davis told us Monday that our states effort has been very successful. Still, wed postpone any verdict until end-of-month data are released, since the only figures unveiled so far cover just the first week, when a seemingly paltry 226 people enrolled. 

The president insists nobody is madder than me about the shortcomings of the insurance website. Thats great, but this isnt a test of emotion. Its a test of competence.

## Lush, Glam Pink and Purple Wedding in California  
  
---  
  
**Lindsey & Matthew  
**

June 15  


Newport Beach, California  


~~~~~~~~

**_From the photographer:_**

_“Matt and Lindsey’s summer Newport Beach wedding was one I had been looking forward to all year. They held their wedding at one of my favorite venues, the Newport Beach Marriott and enlisted some of my favorite vendors. LVL Events really tied their day together, leaving not one detail to chance. Matt and Lindsey tied the knot under the gorgeous outdoor gazebo on the Marriott lawn and their ceremony could not have been more perfect. Their reception followed in one of the hotel’s grand ballrooms, adorned in pink floral arrangements, by Bloom Box, that were simply breathtaking. Matt and Lindsey were given a first look of their reception site before their guests so that they could take it all in and were they surprised. I would have to say their favorite detail of their room was their sweetheart table, which was not covered in your standard linens but instead a blanket of fresh pink roses. . . absolutely stunning! The remainder of their day included a dress change by Lindsey, out of her stunning fairytale gown into a shorter version of the same gown, so chic! And of course a fun photo booth, caricature artist and a classic ice cream station to put the perfect ending touch on a perfect wedding day. ” –Lily Stein Photography_

# From Faith to Faith—Daily Devotionals August 20, 2020 – When Someone Does You Wrong – Gloria Copeland The Father’s Heart

## Topic:When Someone Does You Wrong  


> Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.  
>  Luke 10:19

Someone’s done you wrong! Sooner or later it happens to all of us. Somewhere along the way, we all get hurt or cheated or lied to or abused.

It’s as predictable as it is painful. Yet when it happens most of us find ourselves strangely unprepared. In our outrage, we often cry out to God against the one who wronged us. We ask for justice, or even vengeance, and end up making things tougher on everyone involved—including ourselves.

If that’s been true of you, it’s time you found out how you can put the power of God to work for you the next time someone does you wrong.

Step one: Identify the enemy! Right here’s where the majority of us make our biggest blunder. We mistakenly identify our enemy as the person who hurts us. Don’t waste your energy ranting and raving or plotting and scheming against people who cause you pain. They’re simply under the devil’s influence. Aim your spiritual ammunition at the right target. It’s the devil who’s behind it all. Go after him!

Step two: Fire! Once you’ve pointed your spiritual guns in the right direction, fire! Hit the devil fast and furiously with the Word of God. Use the Name of Jesus and the power that’s been given you as a believer and bind the devil from doing you any further harm in that area. Then move on to the next and most important part of this spiritual battle.

Step three: Pray the prayer of intercession. In Matthew 5:44-45, Jesus gives us these instructions: “Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven.”

Crying out for the vengeance of God to strike like a lightning bolt when someone does us wrong isn’t acting like our Father. Remember, God has great, great mercy. Not just for me and you, but for everyone!

The devil will probably think twice before he bothers you again. Next time someone causes you pain, put the power of God to work for you. Identify the real enemy. Hit him hard with the authority you’ve been given as a believer. Then pray the prayer of intercession.

**Scripture Reading:**  
Matthew 6:6-15

# Sacred Ritual, Profane Space

| 110,00 $  
---  
  
The first three centuries of Christianity are increasingly seen in modern scholarship as sites of complexity. Sacred Ritual, Profane Space examines the Christian meeting places of the time and overturns long-held notions about the earliest Christians as utopian rather than place-bound people. By mapping what is known from early Christian texts onto the archaeological data for Roman domestic spaces, Jenn Cianca provides a new lens for examining the relationship between early Christianity and sites of worship. She proposes that not only were Roman homes sacred sites in their own right but they were also considered sacred by the Christian communities that used them. In many cases, meeting space would have included the presence of the Roman domestic cult shrines. Despite the fact that the domestic cult was polytheistic, Cianca asserts that its practices likely continued in places used for worship by Christians. She also argues that continued practice of the domestic cult in Roman domestic spaces did not preclude Christians from using houses as churches or from understanding their rituals or their meeting places as sacred. Raising a host of questions about identity, ritual affiliation, and domestic practice, Sacred Ritual, Profane Space demonstrates how sacred space was constructed through ritual enactment in early Christian communities.

# Oh great, rattlesnakes are living in pool noodles now

  


Here's a fun summer news alert: Your pool noodles might actually be the perfect home for snakes. 

The Buckeye, Arizona fire department posted on Facebook warning residents that their pool toys might actually be prime real estate for venomous creatures. A local who stored the noodles upright against a wall found that once the noodles were deposited to the pool, out popped a rattlesnake. 

The rattlesnake didn't attack anyone, but there were young rattlesnakes found in the pool noodle as well. 

The City of Buckeye Fire Department also said that they have heard reports of snakes laying eggs in pool noodles (but not rattlesnakes, who don't lay eggs). 

Looks like it's time to switch to a safer, non-hollow pool toy, lest you're hoping to swim with the snakes this summer. No thank you.

## U.S. Senate Votes Down State GMO Labeling

In the midst of a week of debates and speeches about the federal farm bill (S. 954 [3]), supporters of the right to know whether or not food products contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs) suffered a setback on May 23. An amendment (S. Amdt. 965 [4]) sponsored by Senator Bernie Sanders (D-VT) would have helped states to pass laws requiring labeling of GMO foods. (Vermont recently made history when its House of Representatives passed such a labeling bill, as CMD reported [5].) Sander's amendment lost, 27-71 [6].

Many states are considering legislation to label GMOs. When the House of Representatives in Sanders' home state of Vermont passed a labeling bill earlier this month, it sparked concerns that the state could be sued by biotechnology or food industries. Sanders said [7] his amendment "would protect states from threatened lawsuits.... Monsanto and other major corporations should not get to decide this, the people and their elected representatives should."

The amendment would also have required the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to report to Congress within two years on the percentage of food and beverages in the United States that contain genetically engineered ingredients, according to a statement [7].

Among the surprising votes _against_ the amendment were those of Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Tammy Baldwin (D-WI). The Center for Media and Democracy (CMD) reached out to both Senators' offices for comment, but did not receive responses. Massachusetts is a stronghold of the biotechnology industry [7], and Wisconsin grows quite a bit of genetically engineered corn and soy [8].

Meanwhile, Senators Charles Schumer (D-NY) and Harry Reid (D-NV) voted for the bill, marking a switch from their no-votes when a similar amendment was introduced in 2012. Food and Water Watch, a non-profit group that works to ensure clean water and safe food, notes [9] that other notable supporters included senators from states "with active grassroots campaigns to pass state laws on GE labeling, including both senators from Alaska, California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Maryland, Oregon, Vermont, Washington and West Virginia, as well as Senator Bennett from Colorado, Senator Tester from Montana ..., [and] Senator Heinrich from New Mexico ..." (New York and Nevada also have active GMO labeling campaigns).

By the end of the week, however, the Senate had failed to approve the farm bill, contrary to previous signs indicating that it would. That means the debate is on hold until the Senate returns from recess in June.

# Faunart

Harnessing the ethereal whimsy of the Victorian curiosity shop, Daniel Byrne reimagines the delicate fragility of ornamental taxidermy in a contemporary fashion, using photographic printed paper for his assembly of Faunart. From an a kingfisher escaping the constraints of its frame, to a flurry of butterflies fluttering inside a glass bell jar, fauna are celebrated in their purest and most majestic form in these beautiful and unique works of art.

#  PCH Sued for Alleged Product Malfunction 

  


Publishers Clearing House has been hit with a personal-injury suit by a consumer.

A Wynnwood, PA woman named Gloria Dougherty claims that a gravy bowl she bought from PCH exploded on her table, and that she suffered “multiple and extensive bruises, contusions and lacerations.”

The complaint alleges that the product was defective, and that PCH misrepresented that it was safe.

“The plaintiffs have purchased numerous items from the defendants over thee years…of course, they have never won any prizes as suggested and promised,” the complaint continues.

Dougherty charges that she also received “multiple internal and external injuries,” and that her husband William, who is also listed as a plaintiff, has been deprived of the services and “consolations” of his wife.

The case was recently moved from the local Court of Common Pleas to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.

Attorney Allen I. Feldman, who represents Dougherty, said he still hopes to have the suit returned to the local court.

Attorneys for PCH were unavailable for comment at deadline.
