After the opening ceremony of Tiandu University, the students entered the class, and the logistics had divided the textbooks, notes, and handout folders used by the students into a bundle for each person, and everyone returned to their seats with their own school supplies, and the class teacher presided over the first session of the teacher-student mutual meeting.

In a warm applause, the class teacher introduced every teacher to the students, lecturers, teaching assistants, associate professors, professors, master's supervisors and doctoral supervisors.

This class is over.

In the afternoon, the lecture began, and hundreds of students from the entire literature department gathered in the large class to listen to the middle-aged professor talk about the development of world literature. In this literary system, Chinese literature will be systematically explained in the later stage.

"In the process of the development of world literature, we must first understand the development of European and American literature. Literature cannot develop in isolation, and it needs a lighthouse on the road of its development and evolution, and this lighthouse is philosophy. The professor said.

In ancient Greece there were three great philosophers: Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle. Their appearance ushered in the heroic age of ancient Greece, where heroes brought the world out of obscurity and allowed people to create a glorious ancient Greek culture and literature.

Although it was still prehistoric, Greek mythology, Homer's epic poems, Aesop's fables, and the three major tragedies or comedies were also created.

After Europe entered the Middle Ages, literature represented by Dante's Divine Comedy developed again until the arrival of the Renaissance in the 14th to 16th centuries.

However, when the ancient Greeks and Romans began to create a splendid classical culture, much of the rest of Europe was still barbaric.

Between the seventeenth and twentieth centuries, European philosophy developed creatively and for a time influenced the whole world. From Descartes, to Locke, Kant, to Hegel. This period saw the emergence of literary giants such as Boccaccio, Rabelais, Cervantes and Shakespeare.

In the seventeenth century, France gave rise to a classicist literary current, represented by Molière. In Great Britain appeared the literature of the English bourgeois revolution, represented by Milton.

The wheel of history rolled forward, and in the eighteenth century, Enlightenment literature appeared on the European continent, Voltaire, Diderot, Rousseau, Beaumarchait, Defoe, Swift, Schiller, and Goethe.

The nineteenth century was a glorious period for Europe, when philosophical trends became more active, and various countries had entered the era of free capital, which laid an excellent ideological and material foundation for the development of literature.

One is the emergence of Romantic literature, represented by Byron, Shelley, Hugo, Dumas and Sons, Heine and Giovannioli.

The second is the rise of pre-critical realist literature in the nineteenth century, which took place mainly in Europe, and successively appeared Stendhal, Balzac, Flaubert, Zola, Maupassant, Dude, Romain Rolland, Dickens, the Brontai sisters, Hardy, Bernard Shaw, Voynich, Pushkin, Lermontov, Gogol, Turgenev, Chernyshevsky, Dostoevsky, Leo Tolstoy, Chekhov, Ibsen, Andersen, and a number of literary giants.

In the middle of the nineteenth century, post-critical realist literature made its debut on the North American continent. A number of literary giants with romantic and critical sensibilities appeared, such as Whitman, Mrs. Stowe, Mark Twain, Owen Henry, Jack London, Dreiser, ......

After class, Sha Lin walked on the road outside, quietly stretched her arm into Xiaohan's arm, and whispered:

"Brother Xiaohan, these gringos' names are really hard to remember. ”

Xiao Xiaohan says:

"Do you think it's hard for you to remember? It's hard for all the students to remember. But slowly you will remember that as long as you work hard, the iron rod can be sharpened into a needle—and the iron rod can be sharpened into a needle, so why be afraid of the name gringo?"

Shalene pouted again and said:

"As far as you can put it mildly, I'd rather sharpen the iron rod than remember those whoa, the ducks. ”

Xiao Xiaohan smiled and said:

"Actually, like you, I'd rather sharpen the iron rod. But I listened to a sentence from the professor who gave this lecture, but it inspired me, he said that it is not enough to memorize the names of some foreign writers, for the time being, you can remember as much as you want, and when you talk about the history of literature, you should combine their works with the teaching, and it is easy to remember the writers and their works, have you heard him say the same thing?"

Charlene Says:

"I was just stunned there, how could I hear what the professor said. Okay, as long as you remember it, brother, you won't be afraid, and you can teach it to me later, you, be my volunteer professor, silly boy!"

After dinner, students have to go to the classroom to study on their own, and some can also go to the library reading room to find materials.

Xiao Xiaohan and Sha Lin went to the library. They wanted to find out what the university library was like, and they walked in with a lot of curiosity.

The lights in the library are bright, wide and silent, and the seats of each student are also very generous and comfortable, looking for materials, borrowing books, and sitting in reverie are all like dumb people with their mouths tightly closed.

Sha Lin originally wanted to say a few easy jokes to Xiao Xiaohan here, or sweet words with temptation~ bewitchment, but when she saw this atmosphere, she closed her mouth that wanted to open, and could only raise her eyes from the information from time to time and deliberately glared at Xiao Han.

Before the bedtime bell rings, students leave the library. At that time, the light of the street lamp that was not too dazzling was flashing outside, and the road looked a little dim, and Sha Lin snuggled up to Xiao Han's body tightly, and was sent by him to her dormitory building.

Xiao Xiaohan returned to his dormitory, there were four students in the first room, everyone had rested, but the lights had not been turned off, as if they were waiting for him.

He silently climbed into bed and began to think about himself, he suddenly thought that he should take the time to go to the Beiyang government, meet Mi Shimeng's aunt, and inquire about Mi Shimeng's whereabouts.

Finally waited for a self-study class, he didn't tell Sha Lin, so he went out of the school, boarded a rickshaw, and asked the coachman to hurry up and take him to the Beiyang government, because the self-study time would not be too long.

The rickshaw soon arrived at the Beiyang Government Building, where he met with the guards guarding the gate and explained that the official he was going to meet was the section chief Mo Xiaoman.

After waiting for half an hour, Mo Xiaoman finally came out to meet him and invited him to the small reception room.

Xiao Xiaohan directly explained that he was here to inquire about Mi Shimeng's news, and Mo Xiaoman told him that her niece Mi Shimeng had been admitted to the Beijing Normal Medical College, and told him that her husband's niece Ruan Ying had also received an admission letter recommended to Nanyang Naval University, and it was time to go to Nanyang to study.
