方李莉的《中国陶瓷史》是一部中国陶瓷的正史,超过100万字,部头大分量大。部头大虽然不是一个标准,但也十分重要。例如李约瑟《中国科学技术史》就是一部巨著,分为七个不同学科,共34册,4500万字。到现在也只出版了18册。这是一种超大型的著作,是集体之功。另外一个例子,是美国学者威尔·杜兰特(Will Durant,188-1981)夫妇的《世界文明史》,11卷,1500万字,从1929年写到1975年(1935年出版第一卷),写作过程前后经历了36年。我举以上两个例子,并不是要以这两部书和《中国陶瓷史》相比,而是想说明一个学术

Although not a big part of a standard, but it is also very important. For example Joseph Needham “History of Science and Technology in China” is a masterpiece, divided into seven different disciplines, a total of 34 volumes, 45 million words.

Another example is the “History of World Civilizations” by American scholar Will Durant (188-1981), 11 volumes, 15 million words, written from 1929 to 1975 (Volume 1, 1935) , Writing process before and after 36 years. I cite these two examples, not to these two books and the “history of Chinese ceramics,” but rather to illustrate an academic
