【Chinese Network】, to provide you with wonderful reading.

If there is one season to represent Wittgenstein, it is winter.

Wittgenstein belongs to winter.

He is a lonely walker who has spent his life searching for meaning in life.

And every year in winter, in the cold weather, Wittgenstein's brain cells seem to really wake up.

He likes to live in seclusion in a cabin in the snow and ice, without contacting anyone, and then thinking alone all day long, writing down the contents of his brain.

Almost all of his works were written in winter, but in Norway, Sweden, Ireland, in the lonely world of ice and snow, he was able to burst out with the greatest creative passion.

It was raining in Wicklow today, and it was still light in the morning, so Zhou Nan walked with Wittgenstein on his favorite beach and listened to Wittgenstein talk about his creative journey over the past year.

At noon, the light rain turned into heavy rain in this small inn with no other guests. The two men sat in front of the small window, listening to the sound of the heavy rain on the window lattice, and continued their conversation.

Communicating with a true master is a very powerful way to empower oneself.

Wittgenstein, though solitary by nature and fond of solitude, was uncomfortable when there were many people.

His first impression is often that he is not good at words and is introverted and shy. In fact, it is not that he does not want to interact with people, but he does not know how to interact with people.

But in front of his bosom friend, when talking about philosophy, he will talk endlessly, and he is actually very talkative.

Although Zhou Nan's depth of philosophical research is not as deep as his, the breadth of knowledge is greater than anyone else of this era.

Therefore, Zhou Nan is also a good person to talk to.

Wittgenstein could find his own presence, a sense of superiority, on the topic. At the same time, Zhou Nan can also keep up with his rhythm, and even has his own unique insights and analysis.

This kind of communication can make both of them feel spiritual pleasure, and this is the power of knowledge.

After lunch, Wittgenstein finally felt tired. After talking all night last night, the two of them communicated until noon today, after all, he is also an old man who is almost sixty years old, and his health is not good.

"Jonas, I need some sleep. Maybe I'll wake up at dinner, maybe a little later. But when we wake up, we can continue to talk about the 'inside' and the 'outside'. ”

"Ludwig, I'll be here waiting for you to wake up, and I'll need to record some of our conversations as well. I learned a lot from the conversation on 'issues of knowledge and certainty'. I need to sort out our conversation carefully, you shouldn't object to me posting it, right? ”

An innocent smile appeared on his face. "Of course not, that's your knowledge."

He was sent back to his room, an ordinary stone house, with only a small bed and a desk, and above the desk, a dim electric lamp.

It was on this desk that Wittgenstein wrote nearly 200,000 words of his works, but he did not agree to the publication of these works.

"In my lifetime, I don't want this knowledge to be published, because I don't want other people to judge my thoughts. When I'm dead, it's not too late to show these things to others. ”

These are Wittgenstein's exact words, and they are what he really thinks.

He is lonely, and he is proud.

Seeing him lie on a somewhat small bed like a child and close his eyes, Zhou Nan exited the room.

Fevod and Popler sat a little bored at the wine table in the inn, each with a copy in their hands, but at this time they did not read, but whispered.

Seeing Zhou Nan come out, Fayward said: "Jonas, you should also sleep for a while, from yesterday to now, you haven't closed your eyes." ”

The excitement of talking to Wittgenstein passed, and Zhou Nan did feel a little tired. "Yes, I need to sleep for a while. Feward, help me get pen and paper, I'll need them when I wake up. ”

Popler asked, "Jonas, when are we leaving?" ”

"I'm not sure because I had a great time communicating with him and we learned a lot of new things from our conversation. I'm not going to leave until we're having fun. ”

"So ...... over there?"

"My plane is not in London, you can send them away first, and I will go back before the official start of the University of South China."

On 14 August, the Olympics officially ended. Neither the mainland nor South China achieved any results, but Switzerland won five golds, ten silvers and five bronzes.

Rotentum's younger brother lived up to her expectations and won the sprint competition in the single kayak.

This also made her very happy and decided to buy her younger brother who was about to graduate from college a Beetle car.

The gold medal allowed her brother to receive a series of government awards, not only a stable training fund, but also some cash prizes.

The town of Weggis, though without a cash prize, decided to make a champion sculpture for her brother by the lake. And named the road in front of her house after her brother.

She couldn't wait to go home and celebrate with her family, but at this time, Zhou Nan had not returned.

Audrey, who was vacationing with Marita in Scotland, also knew about Zhounan's addiction in Ireland, and he and Wittgenstein had been together for five days.

This collision of ideas made him and Wittgenstein very enjoyable, and every time the two of them talked about a topic, Zhou Nan would carefully record it, and then the two would always talk about the topic thoroughly, and then continue to discuss it in another direction.

In this kind of discussion, Zhou Nan felt that his thoughts had been greatly enriched, and many obscure knowledge systems could be deconstructed and analyzed in detail in front of Wittgenstein, a master, which made him pause.

And the pleasure brought by this kind of knowledge made Zhou Nan addicted to it.

But he, a celebrity, came to a small town in the middle of nowhere in Ireland and stayed in a modest inn for five days, and it soon became big news.

Several of Wittgenstein's friends, Trannoy and Malcom, as well as their mutual friend Russell, later joined the talks.

Then there are the media reporters who come to hear about it, and they try to get close to them by all means, hoping to collect some news materials.

At such a time, it seems that their conversation should be over.

At the time of his departure, Zhou Nan warmly invited Wittgenstein to Switzerland for a holiday, where he would enjoy a quiet life without encountering any journalists.

Russell visited Zhou Nan's house, knew the beauty of Jonas Farm, and tried to persuade Wittgenstein to go to Switzerland.

At least in Zhou Nan's home, it is much more convenient for their friends to contact him.

And not, as now, he could not be contacted at all, except for writing letters.

Summer was not the time for Wittgenstein's creation, and after some consideration, he accepted Zhou Nan's invitation.

However, he did not set off with Zhou Nan, but decided to spend a few days to record his conversation with Zhou Nan and then go to Switzerland.

It had been the seventeenth since they returned to London, and they had already left a group of people first. Kelly and Audrey, as well as Melissa, are still in Scotland.

Zhou Nan took the train to Edinburgh, then took the Rolls-Royce sent by the royal family to pick him up, and spent three hours in the small Scottish city of Grahms.

In the 11th century, Grams was the hunting residence of the Scottish kings and was originally just a simple wooden hut.

In 1372, the king's son-in-law, Duke John Leon, took possession of the land and began construction of the castle, whose family coat of arms is a megalithic statue of two animals intertwined.

In the following centuries, the Château de Lyon was constantly remodeled, notably by the renovation and addition of the tower in the 17th century, which gave it its perfect appearance.

But the castle is best known not for its fairytale shape, but for being Scotland's most famous ghost castle.

In 1304, Malcolm II was assassinated here.

Sir John Leon was killed in a duel in 1383 after inheriting the house from his father-in-law, Robert II, in 1372.

150 years later, Lady Grams, Janet Douglas, was burned alive at the stake in Edinburgh as a witch and returned as a ghost, and the "Lady in Grey" still roams the long corridors and the castle's clock tower.

There are also rumored murders of many people here, including the famous Duncan I. It was from the ghost legend of the evil spirits here that Shakespeare was inspired to write Macbeth, one of the four great tragedies of his magnum opus.

The castle, where Queen Elizabeth, the mother of Elizabeth and Marita, was born and is still the fief of the Leon family, and has been printed on the £20 bill for its fairytale shape and rich history.

On the day of Zhou Nan's arrival, George and several noble lords rode horses to hunt a deer. As soon as Zhou Nan got out of the car, he was invited to drink a bowl of fresh deer blood.

After marrying Eliza, Philip Mountbatten was made Duke of Edinburgh. He is one year older than Zhou Nan, 27 years old this year, which is the age of his prime.

Although he is not as jealous as handsome compared to his godfather, Earl Mountbatten, he is also a rare handsome guy.

If it weren't for that, Eliza wouldn't have taken a fancy to him.

Not every prince needs to be as capable as Prince Albert. In order to prevent the prince from usurping power, the prince only needs to have good genes, that is, long handsome.

To put it bluntly, he is a fertility machine.

However, Zhou Nan knew very well that the genetic modification of this generation had failed. The current princess, the queen of the future, gave birth to several children, none of whom were good-looking.

George was very curious about what happened to Zhou Nan in Ireland, and the first thing he said when he saw Zhou Nan was, "Jonas, when several philosophers are together, what kind of topics can make you talk freely for a week?" ”

Zhou Nan replied solemnly: "Your Majesty, on this trip to Ireland, I first discussed with Ludwig Wittgenstein about certainty, then we discussed the philosophical thinking of the concept of color, and finally, we discussed what is internal and what is external. When Mr. Russell also came to Ireland, we focused on idealism and materialism. ”

Eliza, who was pregnant with Rokka, said with a smile, "Compared to you masters, we laymen cannot fully understand the essence behind the truth. Life is flat for us, not three-dimensional. ”

Zhou Nan smiled modestly: "Actually, we are just asking for troubles. ”

Eliza smiled and complimented, "No, it is because of your existence that we can live simply. ”

Philosophy is closely related to life, and everyone, at any time, will face and come into contact with questions about the nature of life, but most people will not think about the problems behind the truth, and live in a muddled way.

Therefore, Eliza's words also represent that she truly understands the connection between philosophy and life.

The Duke of Edinburgh, together with George, took a sharp knife and divided the venison into pieces of good size, which he then told the cook to either cook or roast.

Hearing Eliza's compliment, he stopped and asked, "Mr. Zhou, are philosophical questions related to our real life?" Would it be a waste of talent to focus too much on philosophical research? ”

Although his words were very tactful, all the people on the scene were human spirits, except for Melissa, who was still ignorant, and there were scheming women like Marita, all of whom had meaningful smiles on their faces.

George's face was a little unhappy, but this was his son-in-law after all, so he didn't directly express his opinion.

Eliza felt extremely embarrassed, she looked at Zhou Nan, and wanted to apologize, but she was afraid that the apology would cause a greater misunderstanding.

Only the queen mother, who has a strong personality, can't stand such superficial performance, she said with a straight face: "The difference between humans and animals is that human beings can think, analyze, use tools, and plan for the future." If everyone just looks at what they are looking at and getting by, what difference is it from other animals? ”

Queen Elizabeth smiled and softened the atmosphere and said, "Marita, you can come with me to prepare for dinner in the evening, these venisons are only more fragrant if they are roasted themselves." ”

Audrey helped Zhou Nan put the finished blood bowl on the table, and after not seeing her for a week, she held Zhou Nan's arm tightly and didn't want to let go at all. "Ladies and gentlemen, please forgive us for a moment while I will take Jonas to familiarize myself with the surroundings."

George smiled at this time and said, "Jonas, you come from afar, rest for a while." After dinner, I'd love to hear what you discussed in Ireland. ”

Zhou Nan said with a smile: "This is my honor. He noticed that Marita glanced disdainfully at the handsome Duke of Edinburgh.

And Eliza, because of her husband's disgrace, although she wanted to smile to maintain the atmosphere, her face was very embarrassed.
