Chapter 388: On the Book

PS: Where did the divine light go? This chapter is nonsense, don't subscribe to it...... Well, even if I subscribe, I'll have to write free chapters to make up for it in the future anyway......

(What, a few friends who subscribed, don't order this chapter...'Qinqi Calligraphy and Painting' and 'Meilan Zhuju' The fifth bullet, on the book, purely for the divine light to make up the number of chapters)

The score of "Dreaming into the Divine Machine" is also the origin of the name of the Dream God Machine of the Chess Sect in this book, which has not yet shined.

This is probably the earliest ancient chess score that can be seen now, and it has become a secret book in the Ming Dynasty, and the publication date is difficult to verify

Some people say that it is a work of the Hongwu period in the early Ming Dynasty, but there is no reliable information.

The appointment was printed before Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty.

The book consists of ten volumes, which are now incomplete.

Some of them have been selected for inclusion in "Appropriate Taste". (It is also the source of the name of the disciple of the chess sect that appeared in the book) according to the addition of "Plum Blossom Spring" by Xue Bing in the clouds, and Zi Bao said that the book may also have some origin with "Dream into the Divine Machine", but the "Plum Blossom Spring" said that it is "all in the table and no endgame", I don't know whether it refers to the earliest version of the "Dream Spectrum" or other versions, and it is impossible to understand.

As for the book, it's 100% nonsense in this book, haha!

For example, the "Three Character Classic" and the "Book of Ten Thousand Words" made up by themselves, but it is a pity that they can't write the mystery and the mystery, and the illusion and the illusion, after all, it is a failure.

Speaking of it, I think of an allusion, an allusion that turned white overnight.

The origin of the "Thousand Character Text" that was white overnight The author of the "Thousand Character Text" is Zhou Xingsi, who was an official worshipper and a rider in the era of Emperor Wu of Liang.

The records that have always been recorded in the official history have been brushed over in this way. However, according to the wild history of private notes, the content is not so simple.

Zhou Xingsi and Emperor Wu of Liang were originally friends of the literary friends, and in the Xiao Qi era, they also had a friendship with colleagues in the imperial court. When Emperor Wu of Liang became the emperor, it became a relationship between monarchs and ministers.

From a friend to a monarch, it is said that the relationship is good, but in fact, accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, but it is the worst thing, Zhou Xingsi once accidentally offended Emperor Wu of Liang. Emperor Wu of Liang was furious. I wanted to kill him or punish him very severely, but I still couldn't bear it, so I had to order him to be locked up first.

But Emperor Wu of Liang said again, aren't you very good at writing? You can do it overnight. Put a thousand different words. Write a good essay. and I will forgive you not guilty. Therefore, Zhou Xingsi dug out his mind overnight. Wrote this "Thousand Words Essay".

The article was written, but overnight, the hair, eyebrows, and beard were all white! Everyone should pay attention to the fact that using a thousand different Chinese characters to write an article about the universe, physics, human feelings, and the world overnight is equivalent to writing a very concise "main points of the Chinese cultural program." Although it is too difficult to write only up to the Liang Dynasty in the northern and southern periods.

Emperor Wu of Liang himself, whose talent and literature are pretentious, read the "Thousand Character Essay" written by Zhou Xingsi overnight, and he can't help but admire. Zhou Xingsi was forgiven for this, and he was specially rewarded.

Regardless of its authenticity, the story alone makes me have to respect the book, and then again, it seems like I don't respect the book in the first place when I add it to a fantasy book...... Shame!

After all, the production of books is due to the emergence of words, and with words, it is first necessary to find materials for writing and engraving.

The earliest writing materials were taken from nature, such as stones, bark, leaves, hides, bones, and carapaces. However, these materials are defective and cannot give full play to the record function of words. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, knowledge became more and more popular, and books were written and spoken, and in response to needs, simple books and silk books were produced one after another.

"Jane" is a long and narrow strip made of bamboo or wood, which is written from top to bottom, one by one, and then arranged in order from right to left, and connected by ropes, so that a single work can be coherent and complete. Silk books are books written of silk fabrics, which are easy to carry and read because of their soft and light silk properties.

It's just that simple books are cumbersome and silk books are expensive, which is not conducive to the popularization of knowledge and the long-term development of books, so people invented paper to replace them.

The appearance of paper was about the Western Han Dynasty, and the official record in the history books was 105 AD. Due to its softness and low cost, paper quickly became the most important material for the production of books. After the advent of paper, although many problems in book production were solved, the production of books still stopped at copying word by word, which was time-consuming and laborious, and still lacked convenience.

From the long-term experience of using seals and hammering inscriptions, people were inspired by the combination of engraving and printing technology, and the convenient and fast method of producing books, and finally invented. Demonstration of the papermaking process with ancient methods.

Engraving printing appeared in the early and prosperous Tang dynasties, and because it was a good way to produce books in the handicraft era, it was quickly popularized and used, and became the main force in the production of books after the Five Dynasties and the Two Song Dynasties. In order to make the printing technology more convenient and beautiful, Song Renzong Qingli (AD 1041 ~ 1048) and someone invented movable type typesetting printing. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, it made more progress in the field of color overprinting. Since then, the printing technology has not only matured and thoughtful, but also the finished printed product is even more vivid and moving.

In addition to text, paper, and printing, how to decorate a book is also one of the requirements. Since the bamboo and wood simplification, the decoration techniques of Chinese books have been continuously improved and improved, and the direction of their evolution has mostly been towards the principles of simplicity, practicality, beauty and generosity. Over the years, the book decoration type has been subject to a variety of evolutionary processes, such as scrolls, book leaves, warp folding, butterfly binding, bag back binding, and thread binding. Although modern books are bound into paperback, hardcover and other forms by mechanical operation, some photocopied and published ancient books often use lines to increase the ancient meaning, which can arouse the nostalgia of the ancients. In the early days of China, there were copper sheaths for book protection.

However, no matter how the method of producing books changes, the basic principles are inseparable from the old ways. Today's plate-making, printing, papermaking and other book-making requirements can be said to have all been transformed from the old inventions of the Chinese people. Therefore, when we remember the progress of human civilization and the history of the development of books, it is always difficult to suppress a nameless excitement and glory. Of course, how to motivate and introspect and continue the glorious legacy of our ancestors may be more meaningful.

On the basis of reading a wide range of books, Lu Xun formed his own unique reading method. The first is to look at the general, he advocates learning from all the people, taking their strengths, advocating that when they are leisure, they should "flip through casually", and the second is to look hard. For the more difficult must-read books, read them hard until you understand them thoroughly. The third is specialization. He advocates "general reading" as a basis, and then choose one or a few of your favorite subjects and study them in depth. Otherwise, although you read a lot, you will still achieve nothing after all. Fourth, live reading. Lu Xun advocated that we should think independently, pay attention to observation and attach importance to practice. "There are also drawbacks to reading books, so you have to get in touch with society to make the books you read come alive," he said. He also advocated "reading the living book of the world with your own eyes." Fifth, reference. Lu Xun read not only the selected books, but also the author's biography and special collections, so as to understand his era and status, so as to deepen his understanding of the works.
