这是对老一代文学家、教育家和翻译家曹靖华的一篇访问记。曹靖华从“五四”运动时期即开始文学工作,后来在瞿秋白鼓励和影响下,主要从事苏俄进步文学的翻译介绍。在黑暗的旧中国,这样的工作被鲁迅形容为“在读者眼前开出了鲜艳而铁一般的新花”。曹靖华正是这样一位栽“铁花”的辛勤园丁。 This is an interview with Cao Jinghua, an older generation of writers, educators and translators. Cao Jinghua began her literary work during the May 4th Movement, and later was mainly engaged in the translation and introduction of progressive Russian literature under the encouragement and influence of Qu Qiubai. In the dark old China, such work was described by Lu Xun as “a fresh and iron new flower in the eyes of the reader.” Cao Jinghua is such a “garland” hardworking gardener.
