Events mark birth anniversary of visionary
To better publicize Liang's thoughts, a digital library including his major works also went online via the National Library of China on Wednesday. The library director Xiong notes there are plans to organize an exhibition of documents pertaining to Liang later this year.
Liang was also famous for the comprehensive and detailed education his own sons and daughters had. His family contributed many key figures to the development of modern China. For example, his son Liang Sicheng is widely seen as a master architect who designed monumental structures, as well as the national emblem of the People's Republic of China. Liang Siyong, another son, was also an icon in the infancy of modern Chinese archaeology.
Yu Guolin, deputy editor-in-chief of the Zhonghua Book Company, says that letters written by Liang Qichao and his family will be published, so will the senior Liang's writings during his travels abroad.
On Thursday, related commemorative activities were also held in Tianjin, where Liang Qichao once lived, and in his hometown, Jiangmen.
