"Do you want to lie on a wicker chair and read?" Chen Wenjing flipped through the book that she had put on the table, "Why did you buy Tang poems for three hundred capitals?"

"It's always good to take a look. Su Xing said, "You know Li Bai, right?"

"Such a famous poet, how could I not know that you want to test me?" Chen Wenjing said, "Then tell me which Li Bai work you want me to recite?"

"I don't want you to memorize. Su Xing shook his head, "I'll just ask you a question, why can't Li Bai be a big official?"

Chen Wenjing was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Su Xing: "Why are you asking this question? Does this have anything to do with Li Bai's poems?"

"It must have something to do with it, knowing this person's life can give you a deeper understanding of his works, not just knowing that his name is Li Bai, the word is too white, the name is Qinglian Jushi, and the name is the immortal, and Du Fu is called Li Du, he likes to drink, and he is from the Tang Dynasty. Su Xing said with a smile.

These introductions, written in textbooks from elementary school to high school, are written in the notes below the poems, giving a brief introduction to the poet's identity and background.

But for students who don't pay much attention to history, these introductions are too empty to form a complete story chain, so that after learning this poem, they only know the poet's character, number, dynasty, whether he is promoted or degraded to write this poem, and only have a general understanding of the background of the formation of the poem, and the teacher will not take the initiative to say more in-depth things, and most students do not have the awareness to take the initiative to explore.

Some things are not much fun to stay on the surface, there is not the slightest sense of excitement, and you can only feel true happiness when you explore the depths.

"Poetry is the essence of the ancients, condensed into short words, expressing what you think, feel, and understand, and you should learn together with history to be worthy of the essence of poetry. Su Xing said to Chen Wenjing, "Horn peony, you can't taste the connotation and artistic conception." ”

"These introductions are all at the bottom of the poems, do you mean that these simple introductions cannot fully express the life of the poets, only by fully understanding their historical background can we know the deep meaning of their words, and also know the environment in which the poems they wrote in different periods were produced?" Chen Wenjing has a good understanding.

"That's right, that's what it means. Wake nodded.

"So why can't Li Bai be a big official?" Chen Wenjing returned to the previous question.

"Li Bai can't be a big official, because he has no one in his eyes, he is talented, but he can't be a man and is arrogant. This is also in his works, An Neng broke his eyebrows and bent his waist to deal with the powerful, which made me unhappy. Don't you think he is a little schizophrenic? Since he wants to be an official, he feels that being an official is breaking his eyebrows and bending his waist, which makes him unhappy. He wrote this sentence because he disliked the official and felt ashamed of his talent. Su Xing said, "Talent is indeed admirable, but it has nothing to do with being an official." ”

"You are speculating in vain, Li Bai and Du Fu are called Li Du, his poems are recited by the ancients and modern people, it must be reasonable, how can it be such a person?" Chen Wenjing felt that there was something wrong with his awakened thoughts.

"A good poem does not necessarily mean that he has political talent, and having a strong point in one aspect does not mean that he is perfect. "Edison is famous, isn't he?" Inventor, everyone knows that he invented the electric light, but in fact the electric light has been around for a long time, he is the improver, and the previous people did not apply for a patent, so the inventor became him. ”

"There is a capable man named Tesla under him, and many of Edison's inventions are actually Tesla's, but Edison can take them as his own. Let's talk about the other one, the great scientist Newton, he is a great scientist, but do you know that his character is actually very bad, he is an aristocrat, and he uses this identity to attack other scientists and destroy their laboratories. ”

There are two sides to things, and it is correct to look at the problem dialectically.

Chen Wenjing is indeed the first time to hear this: "You don't say that I really don't know, but we don't need to look at their people, we just need to look at their works, right?"

"But can you really do this?" Su Xing said with a smile, "No, when a certain aspect of a person is magnified and other aspects are selectively ignored, most people only see the great and righteous side of these people, so they will also feel that he is perfect in other aspects, and it is even possible that the in the toilet is fragrant, and a famous poet like Li Bai does not let him be a big official, there must be something wrong with the emperor." Of course, the emperor can't say that there is no problem at all, but what about Li Bai?

"Then what do you mean by telling me this?" Chen Wenjing was a little puzzled by the awakening of his thoughts, "Is it for me to learn more about history when I read these poems in the future?"

"That's right, I think history is the most important thing in the liberal arts, even more important than poetry. Su Xing nodded, "Especially women should learn more about history and learn more about the lives of their ancestors." ”

Of course, the depravity of a nation cannot all be attributed to women, but women do have a large factor.

Ha Han, Ha Ri, and even became an easy girl in other people's mouths, some people say that the reason for this is because the social value orientation is broken, and it is the overall social factor, not the reason for women.

But in fact, it really has a lot to do with women, different groups have differences, and the understanding of history is greater than that of women.

The more prominent women's social status and role in society become, it is only when their values change that they have such drastic consequences for society.

In some dynasties, women's status was not so high, and they were constrained by the three obedience and four virtues, and they did not have much influence in society, but as soon as their status was improved, the consequences would occur immediately.

Of course, women are not the only reason.

But under the guidance of value, the overall change of women is more obvious than that of men, which is indeed worth considering.

Rather crying in the BMW than laughing behind the bicycle perfectly interprets the value orientation of some women.

Studying more history and learning more about ancient culture can well suppress this situation.

When you meet a good woman, you should cherish it, there are not many.

"Come to my house for dinner in the evening. Chen Wenjing invited Su to wake up, "My mother's cooking is delicious." ”

"No need, I'll go to the cafeteria to eat." Wake up and shake his head.

In the cafeteria, after eating with Xu Heng, Liu Kuan and others, Su Xing brought the Sui book in the twenty-four histories to the classroom.

The class bell rang, and the head teacher, Litmus, entered the classroom.

After waking up and sitting in the classroom for a while, I learned that the current homeroom teacher was a woman after listening to the conversation of my classmates.

To be precise, a woman who just graduated from Tsinghua University.

Female doctor.
