Suzhou's 65th Garden

Suzhou's 65th Garden: Gu Yanwu's Former Residence Gu Yanwu (1613-1682) was a native of Suzhou Prefecture, Southern Zhili, Ming Dynasty. His given name was Jiang, and his courtesy name was Ningren. After the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, he admired Wang Yanwu, a student of Wen Tianxiang, and changed his name to Yanwu. Gu Yanwu participated in anti-Qing activities in his youth, and after failing, he repeatedly refused to serve the Qing Dynasty. He advocated for broad learning and personal integrity, and proposed that "the protection of the world is the responsibility of every common person." Later generations summarized this as "the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of every person." Due to his extraordinary achievements in scholarship and thought, he is regarded as a master of his time. Later generations referred to him, Huang Zongxi, and Wang Fuzhi as the three great Confucian scholars of the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.
