  • 罗章龙回忆文存：中共元老的自传（下）
    罗章龙 Luo Zhanglong
    进入《罗章龙回忆文存》的下册，并不是渐趋平淡的自传收官，恰恰是诡谲幽暗的东方政治的残酷记录。作者卷入党内派系争斗，抱团党内老人，多为遭排挤受打击的工运干部，齐心抵制来自莫斯科的错误领导，抵制王明一伙的阴谋篡党，同时落下'另立中央'的罪名与'争百年是非'的信念，最终留给历史判定'谁在分裂党'？下册在全套回忆中，篇幅精当，长期难与读者见面。正因如此，一旦进入细心的读者或研究者眼里，蕴藏的历史信息之多，必定引发感叹，闻所未闻。若属独家旧闻曝光，足以成为1930年代谜团的解码钥匙。正因此，'不写花园会议，任何一部中共党史都是半部党史'，'西安事变爆发前夕，在西安城外静候消息的，天下独此一人'，皆因批阅罗章龙这部回忆的下册而产生。虽旷世惊闻叠生，仍不过是冰山一角。精选的附录，着眼于让读者全面了解作者其人，了解与作者相关的事件，尝试着尽大力摆明关键史料。 ...
