1 Everyone has his or her greatness which people respect and admire, and the greatness can be evaluated by both those who live after and those live in the same period.
2 As for later generations, they can value their ancestor with more materials of his or her whole life, which the contemporaries cannot hold.
3 Besides, the later generations may value the anterior with justice as there are no beneficial conflicts between them.
4 When it come to the contemporaries, I strongly conceive that they can recognize the greatness of individuals for that they have opportunities of finding out the truth behind characters, symbols and files. Meanwhile, they can experience the greatness personally, which sense more.
5 Further more, those who live in the same period would never value their contemporaries with unfair angle of views beyond the time which is nothing with justice.
6 In conclusion, both the contemporaries and later generations can figure out the greatness of individuals in different ways. It is hard to compare which one is better, in some degree, both of them are unique and cannot be substituted. Thus we should both treasure the commends from the after generations and the evaluations from the contemporaries.
