饶世和镜头里的上海（1937-1946年）

原创本地老洋房外滩以西

Malcolm Rosholt was born on 8 September 1907 in Rosholt, Wisconsin, USA, where he died on 21 February 2005.

饶世和，1907年9月8日出生在美国威斯康辛州罗肖尔特（波蒂奇下属村镇，Rosholt is a village in Portage County），2005年2月21日去世，享年98岁。

1931年他到达上海，进入美资媒体，可能之前他在燕京大学做研究项目时，就将自己英文名Malcolm Rosholt，用两个理想化的中国字做了注释：世和，太平盛世，世界和平。Rosholt也是他故乡的名字。

他的人生在中国期间有其光芒的那一段

他和陈钠德将军的飞虎队联系在一起

他的人生在上海期间也有其闪光的那一段

他和1937年淞沪会战联系在一起

和他的美国同行福曼一起出生入死

他的人生在回乡以后还有其光耀的那一段

他整理了威斯康星州的近代铁路史。

我们仅仅看饶世和在上海的行程。饶世和是作家、记者和历史学家。他和福曼是老乡，老家相距很近的，福曼的家乡密尔沃基，与饶世和老家大约三小时的路程，上海到南京的距离。

饶世和1929年坐船来中国，到北京的时候他才22岁，一个勇敢的远离家乡看世界的男子汉。1931年他到上海以后在《大陆报》（The China Press）做记者和编辑。1937年饶世和通过朋友，从香港带回一台莱卡相机。

Harrison Forman showed Rosholt how to shoot pictures with the latter's new Leica. In a letter Rosholt wrote to Tess Johnston, Rosholt recalled that: "He (Forman) had a light meter which he waived around a minute and told me to set my camera at 6.3 and 100. I never changed this setting when outdoors." (Rosholt's camera settings: aperture of f6.3 and a shutter speed of one hundredth of a second).

光圈6.3，快门速度1/100，什么梗？老乡的话饶世和还是听的，户外摄影就是这个模式了。

福曼（Forman Harrison），中国人民的老朋友，《北行漫记》（来自红色中国的报道）了解一下。饶世和很佩服他这位年长三岁的老乡，肯定的。

刚学会摄影的饶世和遇到了1937年的第二次淞沪战争。下图，在上海被炸后的危险区域里进行拍摄的福曼（饶世和摄），两个人一起。

下图未标注拍摄者，看福曼的服装和鞋子，估计是同一天。

饶世和曾借住在霞飞路伟达饭店。

饶世和从饭店的顶楼露台上拍摄到了闸北被炸的照片。湛蓝的白云朵朵的天空出现了滚滚硝烟。照片里，还可以看到马勒别墅尖顶和华业大楼的西班牙式塔楼。

用一张当时新闻照片再来佐证一下。

饶世和摄影集都和1937年的战争有关。其中一张让人记忆深刻。

我们整理了饶世和侨居上海拍摄的日常城市生活照片。

饶世和借住的伟达饭店一带是当年的繁华商业街，附近有万兴食品号。链接点进去看看：

福曼在万兴食品号所处的十字路口开动过摄影记，胶片一格格，连续记录。链接点进去看看：

淮海中路陕西南路口万兴(Van Shing)食品号

现磨咖啡豆溢出的浓香记忆一辈子

饶世和也曾在万兴食品号门口抓拍一张，旗袍动态了···· 那个梗？光圈6.3和速度快门1/100，要活学活用哦。现在的话，直接运动模式连拍3张。

饶世和夫妻和朋友在仙乐斯舞厅。他和太太是1933年在老家结婚。，婚后，太太随他来上海，住了五年。

He was married to Margaret Njaa on March 26, 1933, in Northwood, N.D. They settled in Shanghai and lived there for five years. They left China in 1937 and returned to the United States.

在https://www.findagrave.com上，我们找到了饶世和的生平简历。

After graduation from St. Olaf he went to Shanghai, China, and worked as a journalist on The China Press.

他从St. Olaf （College）毕业后来了上海，中间还有一段经历未记录，他申请了北大的中文研究项目，算北大研究生学历。

我于2000年9月从朋友处借到一本书，书名为“Letter Home from Shanghai”，此书是Margaret Rosholt 在三十年代时从上海写回美国的家信。Margaret Rosholt的丈夫，Malcolm Rosholt，那时在上海的一家出版社工作（注：应为《大陆报，The China Press》）。此书由Malcolm Rosholt编辑，2000年由Rosholt House出版。书中有一些照片，其中包括上面的这张照片。崇德老人端坐在中间。当初的燕京大学校长司徒雷登先生坐在左面较偏的位置。Malcolm Rosholt先生坐在右边。照片的说明有误，将崇德老人说成是文正公的孙女。我曾写信给Rosholt家，询问还有没有此照片，以便得到一张清楚些的复印件。后来我接到Margaret的女儿Mei Fei的E-mail，她说Malcolm Rosholt先生还健在，但他只记得他当初是照片上的 Jesse Sung 带他去参加这个集会的（《崇德老人与司徒雷登的一张合影》作者：徐芸）。

有考据癖好，我们将知道的人物关系理一下，都是中国近代史的著名人物。

曾纪芬(1852-1942) ，号崇德老人，祖籍湖南衡阳，出生于湘乡县荷塘(今双峰县荷叶镇)。曾国藩季女。后嫁入衡山名门聂家，其夫聂缉椝（上海道台）。

司徒雷登(John Leighton Stuart，1876-1962)，美国基督教长老会传教士、外交官、教育家。1919年起任燕京大学校长、校务长。1946年任美国驻华大使，1949年8月离开中国。

这是一张燕京大学校友们在上海欢迎司徒雷登合影。饶世和正好在上海，也正好是燕京大学毕业生。

1937年，饶世和还记录下了一次重要的上海地方有领导力的人物会谈场景，现在说到“Jacquinot Zone 饶家驹区”采用的照片里没有饶世和拍摄的这组，建议研究者深入研究。此组照片图像清晰，人物神态好。

A meeting of Nanshi Supervisory Committee, which organised the Shanghai Safety Zone (a.k.a. Jacquinot Zone). Left to right: George Findlay Andrew（中文名：安献令）, Charles Baboud, Brigadier General Ernest Brander Macnaghten, Major Hans Berents, Father Robert Jacquinot de Besange, A. S. Jaspar, Woodforde Hamilton Plant. Photograph taken outside Saint Peter's Church (L'Eglise St Pierre), the Aurora University Chapel, Avenue Dubail, French Concession, Shanghai.

Jacquinot Zone 饶家驹区，展开。饶世和作为《大陆报》记者和编辑，用手中的莱卡相机，用老乡福曼教的户外拍摄模式，就大胆走出办公室在上海的街头抓拍民生百态。

那时候，人们害怕炸弹再落下来，当有飞机轰鸣声，朝天看是一种常态。

这可能是让饶世和参加美国第十四航空队的最初愿望，打击日本侵略者，消灭其空中打击力量。1942年饶世和在昆明参加了陈纳德将军的第十四航空队。

He lectured for several years around the United States, finally moving to San Francisco in 1941, where he worked for the China News Service.

In 1942 he was commissioned a first lieutenant ion the U.S. Army Air Corps and he returned to China where he was attached to the 14th Air Force during World War II. With his knowledge of China and the Chinese language, he served as a liaison officer in the field with the Chinese armies. He was discharged in December 1945 with the rank of major.

After World War II he became an active member of the Flying Tigers of the 14th Air Force Association. For many years he was the editor of the Pictorial, the organization's newsletter.

饶世和后来写《飞翔在中国上空：1910-1950年中国航空史话》，这是一部20世纪上半叶的“中国航空史话”，它讲述了中国航空事业从无到有、曲折发展的故事。

我于1938年回美国。1942年，我被委任为陆军航空队中尉军官，这在很大程度上归功于我在上海学习过中文这个背景。结束了在迈阿密海滩（Miami Beach）的新兵训练期后，去了哈里斯堡（Harrisburg）接受战斗情报训练。1943年11月我飞越了缅甸的崇山峻岭到中国。这就是著名的“驼峰”航线。我在昆明第14航空队司令部的作战室待了一个月后，到中国军队里做美国各个飞行中队与中国陆军的联络员。当日本人发动Ichi-Go（One-Five）（五一大扫荡）时，我在长沙的中国第九战区司令部，这是日本军在华“七年战争”中最大的一次军事行动的代号。为了避开敌人的包围，我随着中国军队司令部撤退了200英里进入华南。1945年12月13日，我在华盛顿卸职（饶世和回忆录）。

后来，他是美国第十四航空队协会副会长，长期致力于收集和研究第十四航空队史料。

从淮海中路（霞飞路）转到宛平路（汶林路），就看到衡山路口（贝当路口）的毕卡第，饶世和去看望老乡福曼前认真构图，云层压得非常低，空气中透着嫩草的清香，行道树正在茁壮成长。

"Mei Fei Rosholt (center) in picture taken by her daddy in Shanghai, China, in early 1937, with her mother, Marge, smiling, while Sandra Forman holds Brenda Lu, her first-born. Picture taken at Weda Apartments, Avenue Joffre, French Concession. Harrison Forman was cameraman and news correspondent. [...]."

两家人相互走动，福曼的太太带着女儿来伟达饭店看望饶世和太太和女儿。Mei Fei Rosholt将其父亲的相册交给了江似虹（Tess Johnston），我们有机会看到这本珍贵相册，1086张老照片。

饶世和也用相机记录了他家日常生活场景，他住的伟达饭店北面可以看到俄罗斯东正教圣母大堂。

大概过了10年，怀旧的饶世和回来过，此时，襄阳北路（劳尔登路，Lorton,Rue L）贯通了。

饶世和一生都在写作，其中，他写过宋美龄传记。

Mr. Rosholt was born Sept. 28, 1907, in Rosholt, a son of the late John Milton and Lillian (Anderson) Rosholt. He attended grade school and two years of high school in Rosholt, then graduated from Emerson High School in Stevens Point.

He enrolled in Spokane College and later transferred to St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minn.

After graduation from St. Olaf he went to Shanghai, China, and worked as a journalist on The China Press.

He was married to Margaret Njaa on March 26, 1933, in Northwood, N.D. They settled in Shanghai and lived there for five years. They left China in 1937 and returned to the United States.

He lectured for several years around the United States, finally moving to San Francisco in 1941, where he worked for the China News Service.

After World War II he became an active member of the Flying Tigers of the 14th Air Force Association. For many years he was the editor of the Pictorial, the organization's newsletter.

He and his family moved to Rosholt after World War II and he wrote books.

Several of his books deal with local history. The first was "Town 25 North" about the town of Alban and later "Our County; Our Story," a history of Portage County commissioned by the Portage County Board of Supervisors. "Nakkom: The Woman of Waupaca" was a novel based on a true incident in the area's history. He wrote "Trains of Wisconsin," "Wisconsin Logging Book" "Lumbermen on the Chippewa, A Photo Album of Marathon County 1850-1925," "Pioneers of the Pinery," "Florimond Bonduel" (written with John Gehl), "A Pioneer Churchman" and "From the Indian Land" (based on his translation of Helgeson's book "Fra Indianernes Lande" and his own research). The photos in the book were from the Iola Herald where he served as editor from 1965 to 1967.

He maintained his interest in China and wrote books on his World War II experiences in China, the novel "Dog Sugar Eight," "Days of the Ching Pao" and "Flight in the China Airspace." More recently he wrote a biography of Madam Chiang Kai-shek entitled "China's First Lady." With his wife he edited "Chinese Fairy Tales" and "Letters Home from Shanghai." Together they wrote two children's books, "The Story of Old Abe" and "A Child of Two Mothers" and collaborated on "A Photo Album of the Past Vols. I & II." In 2004 he published his autobiography, "Rainbow Around the Moon."
