Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

This sentence should have first come from "Smiling Proud Jianghu: The East is Undefeated" directed by Tsui Hark and Cheng Xiaodong.

In the movie, Ling Huchong, who was preparing to go into hiding with his junior brothers and sisters, never asked about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, but was inadvertently involved in the fight in the rivers and lakes. Later in the film, when Ling Hu Chong buried the bodies of his junior and younger brothers, he was sad and indignant, at this time, Ren Wuxing said to him: "As long as there are people, there are grievances, there are grievances, there are rivers and lakes, people are rivers and lakes, how can you quit?"

Later, this sentence was condensed into a forced "where there are people, there are rivers and lakes", although the word "grievances" is no longer mentioned, but the meaning of right and wrong, interests, and grievances is more expressive and plump than before.

Deng Zheng is here today, which is very appropriate.

The irony is obvious - don't be funny, you spray me and martial arts novels not because of literature itself, but because it involves "right and wrong, grievances, and interests"!

The eyes of the students in the audience were bright and they applauded, and some irrelevant teachers, professors, and media reporters couldn't help but laugh, only Nong Li, Rong Maoshi and other people didn't look good.

Rong Mao said honestly, hmph, you have sharp teeth, I want to see your martial arts novels that have only been on the rise for a few years, how should you talk about it? What is there to talk about?!

Deng Zheng accepted his words when he saw it, and his face stopped as soon as he hit him. Stretching out his hand and clicking on the remote control, the curtain that can put PPT courseware on the stage was put down, and when the projector flickered, a line of words was displayed on the curtain - "The first lesson, the dream of the ancient literati and chivalrous guests"!

It's really fake, and there is actually a special courseware prepared?!

In the first class, I didn't even take out a piece of paper, but only talked about it for more than an hour. That's why he has been criticized by many serious educators as 'MLM lecturers' and 'talk show professors'?

Could it be that you have lost your way and embraced seriousness? But, martial arts. What can you do if you really want to make courseware?!

But anyway, this one starts. A serious demeanor was revealed first, and many people's spirits were suddenly shocked, wanting to see what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, whether it was just a formality for people to play......

On stage, Deng Zheng has already begun:

“…… When talking about martial arts novels, it is difficult not to start with the concept of 'chivalry'. In the last lesson, we talked a lot, whether in a narrow sense or by extension. At the end of the day, martial arts fiction is a genre of fiction that tells the story of martial arts. Personally, I think. 'Xia' is the soul, and 'Wu' is the body. In other words, 'chivalry' is the goal, and 'martial arts' is the means to achieve 'chivalry'. ”

"It's no wonder that friends who study martial arts novels like to spend pen and ink to distinguish the concept of 'chivalry'. Because this question is not clear, what exactly is a martial arts novel, and how martial arts novels are developed, can only be a muddy account. ”

"Although there are not many scholars studying martial arts novels at present, there has always been no shortage of monographs on 'chivalry' and 'chivalry'. For example, Zhang Ruhui first listed the eight characteristics of 'chivalry' in the book "The Legend of Chinese Heroes", and later, Li Jian summarized the ten characteristics of 'chivalry' in "On the Novel of Chivalry". Only the first clause, 'Shangqi Ren Chivalry, Anxious for People's Urgency', is consistent with what Zhang Ruhui said; while Wang Xiaoying listed 11 characteristics of 'chivalry' in the book "Europa Knights and Chinese Heroes"; Ma Ruhui listed nine characteristics of 'chivalry' in the book "A Study of Chinese Classical Short Stories and Chivalry Novels", and each of them had their own opinions......

After all, he has many years of stage experience, and Deng Zheng's typhoon is much more exemplary than ordinary teachers. And throughout the course of his narration, the courseware on the curtain kept turning the pages, but he never looked at it from beginning to end.

The whole process is facing the audience. It's like chatting with a friend, unhurried. Eloquent.

It feels like he doesn't need the help of courseware at all. The reason why I use this is because I am worried that there are some unfamiliar words and personal names, and students may not be able to figure it out if they only listen to it once, so it is used to help everyone understand it intuitively.

This unheard-of knowledge, this extreme strength and self-confidence, as well as the image and temperament that he presents on the stage...... Blended together, they formed an incomparable aura, covering the entire theater silently.

The most important thing is that what he said is really substantial, and he is quoted from the side, so from the very beginning, most people can't help but pay full attention and listen carefully.

Many students in the audience had fully listened to it at this time, and began to take notes with a rustle.

“…… If we carefully distinguish them, it is not difficult to see that the above predecessors relied on different angles to observe, so their conclusions are very different. Mr. Zhang's purpose is to introduce this aspect of Chinese culture that can be collectively referred to as chivalry, including historical books, poems, novels, and operas, so the definition is basically not based on the views of the ancients in the history books, but more on the reading impressions of our modern and modern people; Mr. Li first determined that 'the earliest martial arts novels should be the legends of the Tang Dynasty', so he defined 'xia' based on the 25 'heroic' novels included in the Taiping Guangji; Mr. Wang focused more on China's 'chivalry' and Western Europa from the perspective of comparative literature Mr. Ma's book is mainly based on the works of historians such as Sima Qian and Ban Gu, and examines the form of 'chivalry' in ancient times......"

However, although all the statements are reasonable, they can hardly be used as a theoretical basis for the study of martial arts novels. In my personal opinion, the concept of 'chivalry' in martial arts novels, including in previous chivalrous novels, is not an objectively existing entity in history that can be described in three words, but a fusion of historical records and literary imagination, social regulations and psychological needs, and the integration of contemporary vision and literary characteristics. ”

"Therefore, I think the biggest purpose and significance of our course is to examine the trend and process of this 'integration', rather than to give a definitive 'definition'!"

Huh, the kid is a bit of a ghost?!

These last few words made the old professor Duanmu Weiran, who was sitting in the corner of the theater, startled, and a hint of strange color flashed in his eyes. As the person in charge of the "Institute of Aesthetic Culture" of the Communication University, he has dealt with this all his life, and naturally knows that the theoretical basis expounded by Deng Zheng is very scientific and reasonable, and it is also very advanced.

Not only him, but many professors and lecturers who came to listen to the lecture who didn't care about it and just had fun and fun, also felt a dignified academic style, and gradually put away their contempt for fun, but they didn't expect it...... This lesson is unexpectedly reliable!

Among the students present, Concubine Jiang belongs to the group that knows the most well, and after listening to this for a while, she has gradually relaxed her heart, her eyes are firmly locked on the dashing figure on the stage, and her black pupils have become a clear spring......

"...... concept of 'chivalry' was first seen in the "Five Worms" of "Han Feizi": Confucianism uses literature to mess with the law, and chivalry uses martial arts to violate the forbidden ......"

Hearing this, Nong Li, who has been depressed from the beginning to the present, suddenly lifted his spirits, okay, I'm afraid that if you don't trace the source from the history books, you really can't bear it! )
