Instead, it begins with the most micro-level and frontline practices of compilation, inviting the audience to return to the historical scenes of the Master\u2019s creations and enter his original intent.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nThrough the processes of collection and collation, the editor was able to traverse time and space, observing the Master\u2019s writing style \"at close range\"\u2014from his youthful poetry and novels to his oral dictations and essays in his later years. This lecture will share the speaker's personal experience of closely serving the Master.
