Yang Jiang (1911-2016) was an admirable writer and translator in China. She lived through the most unsettled time in the modern history of China, when the Anti-Japanese War (1937-45) and the Cultural Revolution (1966-76) did have a great impact on her life and her career. Whereas the social environment influenced Yang Jiang, Yang also responded to the situation with her novels or works of translation, which are now excellent works of art.
