for myself what had been on his mind and the very
place he was when he wrote those stories. I believe it is
always important to make the effort to gain a deeper
understanding of the cultures and civilizations that dif-
fer from our own.
In Russia, during the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics,
he gave a list—and a long one at that—of his favourite
Russian authors: Krylova, Pushkin, Gogol, Lermontov,
Turgenev, Dostoyevsky, Nekrasov, Chernyshevsky,
Tolstoy and Chekhov. A month earlier, he had done the
same in France: Montesquieu, Voltaire, Rousseau,
Diderot, Saint-Simon, Fourier, Sartre, Montaigne, La
Fontaine, Molière, Stendhal, Balzac, Hugo, Dumas père
and fils, George Sand, Flaubert, Maupassant, Romain
Rolland and Jules Verne. In Germany, too, he was sure to
enumerate his reading habits: Goethe, Schiller, Heine,
Leibniz, Kant, Hegel, Feuerbach, Heidegger, and
Marcuse. Too bad for Mexico, where the Chinese leader
only cited Octavio Paz.
In October 2014, in a speech on arts and literature
aimed at a local Chinese audience, Xi beat his own
record in referring to 114 Chinese and foreign writers,
painters, calligraphers, philosophers, musicians, dancers,
choreographers, sculptors, and dramatists. Whether in
coquetry or vanity, his erudition apparently reached as
far back as the The Epic of Gilgamesh, the mythical nar-
rative from Mesopotamia, and the Vedas, the sacred
texts of Ancient India.
