Английская Википедия:Cyril Drummond Le Gros Clark
Cyril Drummond Le Gros Clark ('C. D.')[1] (1894 – 6 July 1945),[2] brother of Wilfrid Le Gros Clark, was a translator of Su Shi from Chinese into English, and Chief Secretary of Sarawak. After marrying Averil Mackenzie-Grieve in 1925.[3] In preparation for his Secretaryship he spent from 1925 to 1927 [1] on Gulangyu Island, at the time an extraterritorial International Settlement[4] in order to learn Hokkien language and culture.[1] At the end of 1931 his "Selections from the Works Su Tung-t'o" was published. The book was decorated by wood engravings of his wife. The Yorkshire Post and Leeds Intelligencer praised the translation for its "gracefully natural prose."[5]
On 31 March 1941 he announced the decision of the Rajah of Sarawak, Charles Vyner Brooke, to introduce a democratic constitution.[6] After the Japanese invasion of Sarawak in December 1941 Le Gros Clark was captured and held in Batu Lintang camp. From July 1942 until 14 November 1944 he served as the camp master.[7] He was executed two months before the end of World War II.[2]
