Beskrivelse af Chu Mi
This book is a live testimony of the splendor and glory of Chinese culture during the Republic Period (1912-1948). Chu Cheng, Chu Mi's grandfather, together with Dr. Sun Yat-sen overthrew the Qing Dynasty and founded the First Democracy in Asia. Her parents, both graduates of Tsing Hua University in China, brought the family to Taiwan in 1948. After competing her undergraduate in Taiwan, she received her M.A. and Ph.D. from Harvard University. Her years in Taiwan during 1950s and 1960s were nourished by the great tradition and modern transformation of the Chinese culture. Her study at Harvard during 1960s and 1970s witnessed the American thinkers in the throes of their own cultural and academic revolution. In 1977, Dr. Chu applied for a position as Area Specialist in the Library of Congress. After being denied for an interview, she sued and won sex discrimination-in-employment case against the Library of Congress (Mi Chu Wiens, plaintiff v. Daniel J. Boorstin, Defendant, Civil Action No. 78-1034. U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia). Dr. Chu's 35 years of service at the Library enabled her to use the enormous resources and treasures to pass her learning and wisdom to posterity. Her story is the preservation and promotion of a heritage in time, space and memory.
