Although there are many 'Temples of Literature (Van Mieu) in Vietnam, this one in Hanoi is by far the best known. It was founded in 1070 as a Confucian temple, and in 1076 became the country's first university. Emperor Le Thanh Tong established the tradition, dating back to 1484, of carving the names of the laureates of the university on stone steles that were placed on top of stone tortoises. Of the 116 steles corresponding to the examinations held between 1142 and 1778, only 82 remain. Today, the Temple of Literature is featured on the back of the 100,000 Dong banknote.

At the Prepared Grave. Artist: Aleksey Ivanovich Saveliev (Russian, 1883-1923). Dimensions: Image: 8.9 x 13.3 cm (3 1/2 x 5 1/4 in.). Date: 1910.These six photo-postcards show various places and moments surrounding the death and burial of Leo Tolstoy. In November 1910 the eighty-two-year-old novelist walked away from his great wealth to devote himself to Christian charity and died in a stationmaster's house after falling ill on a train. Tolstoy's death was of tremendous national importance, and how he was to be mourned-whether to kneel or stand at the grave, for instance-signified a contrast between old and new that would be decided during the Russian Revolution seven years later. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA. Author: Aleksey Ivanovich Saveliev.
