This page is actually quite interesting and valuable in understanding China's intellectual history. However, it is poorly written, and the first section and second section essentially repeat the same information. Moreover, the broader picture is not given. A person reading this would have difficulty figuring out what the fuss is all about.

[edit] Unsupported statement
The assertion that "In reality, the burning of the books probably did little more than symbolically burn a few copies of the Confucian books conveniently at hand in the capital," really needs to be backed up with something to show its value or removed completely. If this is the case, then the difficulty (and even the necessity) of the work done by Liu Xiang and Liu Xin to recompile all the books that had been damaged is compromised. 202.119.55.8 (talk) 08:11, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
