<< review queue entry 63774 - submitted by 'sl89' >> Eroshenko isn't a very important name in world literature but he's at least an interesting figure in East Asian modern literature. Just the fact the Lu Xun wrote a short story about him (and that he was his friend and translated his work) makes him noteworthy enough to be referenced in this dictionary, in my opinion. 爱罗先珂 seems to be used only to refer to him, not to other Eroshenkos, but it doesn't seem a very common last name (Wikipedia's disambiguation page for Yeroshenko says "Ukrainian-language surname Yeroshenko, also transliterated as Eroshenko" and lists only four people with this surname). * "who wrote in Esperanto and Japanese": "Russian writer" can mislead people into thinking he work was in Russian, but he seems to have written mostly in Japanese and Esperanto. Lu Xun wrote about him in his short story 鸭的喜剧. A couple quotes (from the Lu Xun corpus at corpus.usx.edu.cn, with Lyell's and the Yangs' translations): 一日就是这冬末夏初的时候，而且是夜间，我偶而得了闲暇，去访问爱罗先珂君。 One day, during one of those junctures between the end of winter and the beginning of summer, I had some free time in the evening and went to call on Eroshenko. (Lyells008) One day, or rather one night, at this time when winter ended and summer began, happening to be free I called on Eroshenko. (Yangs008) 过了几天，我的话居然证实了，因为爱罗先珂君已经买到了十几个蝌蚪子。 A few days later my words were confirmed: Eroshenko bought a dozen tadpoles (Lyells023) A few days later, sure enough, I was proved right, as Eroshenko bought a dozen or so tadpoles. (Yangs023) 爱罗先珂君说，“这钱也可以归我出的。” Eroshenko immediately volunteered, “I ought to pay for the fish too. ” (Lyells040) Eroshenko said, “You must let me pay for it.” (Yangs040) 【Wikipedia: Vasili Eroshenko】 Vasili Yakovlevich Eroshenko was a blind, anarchist writer, translator, esperantist, linguist, poet and teacher.
