writing, writing the cultural journey. Describe the ups and downs of history.
-Inscription
China's splendid civilization is being eroded by time. I wonder if people who revile historical sinners while reminiscing about the sad history in the corner have really closed their eyes and calmed their hearts, returning to the indifference of history and the severity of reason. I have always admired scholars who know history and dare to criticize it. At the same time, I think that Mr. Yu Qiuyu, a professor at Shanghai Theatre Academy, is a hero among countless scholars, and his "Cultural Journey" is the most outstanding top grade among thousands of literary and historical prose works.
This book is Mr. Yu Qiuyu's first collection of cultural essays. Some of these articles have won the first prize in various literary awards. The main theme of the book is to seek the cultural soul and the secrets of life with the help of landscapes, and to explore the historical fate of China culture and the historical composition of China literati. These articles written by Mr. Yu Qiuyu, relying on his profound knowledge of literature and history, rich cultural perception and artistic expression, not only reveal the great connotation of China culture, but also provide a brand-new example for the field of contemporary prose.
Mr. Yu Qiuyu attracts readers with his unique writing charm, which is a bitter memory, knowing after anxiety, relaxing after meditation, and being young after old age. He once sighed deeply in this book like many educated youth scholars, but the same sigh appeared in different places, and the charm was far from the same. Just as he said, "I can be young", his life is flexible. He always upholds the passion of youth and enjoys the leisure of old age to spend his rich middle-aged time. Therefore, Mr. Yu Qiuyu is a hybrid at any time. Therefore, his articles are always mixed with different feelings. For example, his sadness over the loss of China culture is full of young people's insults to dissatisfaction, middle-aged people's helplessness to the world and the old people's regret over the vicissitudes of life.
Maybe some of the reading was completely unintentional, but the inspiration for writing this book was definitely intentional. Obviously, he discovered the dusty spot of China's history and culture. In today's vigorous era of carrying forward China's splendid civilization, it is naturally more noticeable and thoughtful to put forward such a paradoxical view. China's ancient civilization once created a prosperous time in ancient times. In order to preserve its prosperity, people passed on splendid culture from generation to generation, and successively built large-scale buildings such as Mogao Grottoes and Dujiangyan. Even ordinary archways and library buildings were printed with cultural traces. But people's ideals are always good, but time goes against people, and changes are endless. What people want to preserve will still be washed away by time at a certain limit. Although some of them are man-made, in the final analysis, they still come from the blank on the roulette wheel of history. Some historical dust can't be left behind, and many scholars are sad to recover, always living in a past that doesn't belong to them, and they will never get out alive. Therefore, "facing up to the past and the present" is an important topic at present that I have realized from this book, and I also think that this is Mr. Yu Qiuyu's research and warning theme. Because only those who can truly understand the historical situation can print their own rut marks on the basis of conforming to the wheel of history.

—— Reflections on the Cultural Journey
I have heard about Mr. Yu Qiuyu and his works, but I have never been exposed to them. I seldom watch TV. This time I went to Hebei to live in a room with my elder sister, who has been watching the programs of the Youth Song Competition. Therefore, I also watched several competition programs together. In the competition, there was an examination on cultural knowledge, and the judges were Mr. Yu Qiuyu. The examination questions were all common sense and professional knowledge, and the examination questions themselves were not complicated. However, the connection of relevant knowledge related to the examination questions was well interpreted by Mr. Yu Qiuyu, which showed that he had profound knowledge and he had a good knowledge of Chinese culture.
I happened to have his book "The Journey of Culture" at hand, and I used the weekend to read it again. This is a book that needs to be calmed down and savored quietly. From the beautiful south of the Yangtze River to the lonely northwest of the desert, from the snowy north to the southwestern border full of ethnic customs, his footprints have traveled all over the mountains and rivers of the motherland, which is also his hard search in the long and splendid Chinese culture. The carefree softness of the Sui Dynasty, the jet and stretching of the Tang Dynasty, and the delicacy and warmth of the Five Dynasties ... This is a river of color and culture, which has been rushing towards us. The collection of books in Tianyi Pavilion once puzzled him, and finally one day it showed its social significance. After all, the West Lake is an ethereal dream in the hearts of literati, which can only be understood and cannot be interpreted in words.
China culture, like the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, flows through the motherland and flows to the vast Pacific Ocean. Culture is a kind of spiritual wealth internalized in the heart. In the world with Chinese, there is the spread of China culture. Chinese people wandering overseas can regard the original giant tree as a temple to worship the "Grand Duke" and then evolve into "Datuk Grand Duke", hoping to protect them. This is a typical clan culture, which can't be waved away for a lifetime.
9.6 million yuan and the land of China in its sea area have nurtured splendid Chinese culture, such as a blossoming, inclusive and open Shanghai culture, a new and graceful Jiangnan culture, and a homesick Chinese culture ... I can't express the author's profound interpretation of China culture in words, but I can only savor it with my heart.

Reflections on the Cultural Journey
In a short winter vacation, I did many meaningful things, such as going to social practice. Although I was busy, I did what I thought was the most interesting thing. I have roughly read the Cultural Journey written by Professor Yu Qiuyu.
Although I didn't have time to ponder it carefully, it really touched me deeply, especially "Stormy Days", which has worried my memory so far.
A family bears the fate of defending a library (an ancient culture in China). Fan Qin, a bibliophile with strong perseverance and strong patriotic spirit, left China a library with cultural representative significance, which has its traces until now, but it was buried by the vicissitudes of time and the dust of history. What is the reason why Fan Tianyi Pavilion stayed? This is what Professor Yu called "willpower beyond passion, hobbies, talents and even time", but what is this perseverance?
Fan Qin once contradicted the powerful royalty, but he was severely punished by the war and went to prison. But he was fearless, and he never hesitated to stick to his beliefs and believe in the truth. In the end, no one can do anything about him. This is an ancient bibliophile and a truly competent bibliophile's strong professional ethics beyond ordinary people.
Having said that, should we reflect on whether any of us students can guard justice and our posts like Fan Qin? Maybe, but it's very rare. I didn't mean to satirize modern people by using successful people in ancient times, but I still want to criticize our bad places, including myself, classmates and all people who study. We should reflect on it long ago. At first glance, Fan Qin's willpower seems inhuman to us, but what about our perseverance? It can be said that it is not even half of him. When we study, what should we do when we encounter setbacks? What is it for after you have completed your studies? Wait, these sharp questions deserve our deep thinking.
Go on, as time goes by, time is short. At the age of 8, Lieutenant General Fan Qin will come to the end of his life, but he will guard his post even at the last moment. He divided his property into two parts, one is the library he guarded for life, and the other is a twenty-two thousand silver ticket. He asked his two children to choose which one they wanted.
I think if things go on like this, who would want to inherit the library, but they can't sell it, and it's not only useless but also troublesome. However, with a great father like Fan Qin, there will be a great son like him. His eldest son, Fan Tianchong, resolutely chose to inherit his father's business, and he inherited the library. China's ancient culture has been preserved until now because of the real scholars like Fan's father and son.
at this point, I want to start criticizing something. Thinking of scholars, today's scholars (some people) say that they are scholars, without considering their own words and deeds, saying what they should not say and doing what they should not do. What's more, reading is all about personal things, only for the golden house or Yan Ruyu. Besides, being a person is very self-centered, with low demands on oneself and harsh on others. As long as you are good, everything will be fine, not to mention guarding your post and protecting the national history and culture. There is no dedication like Fan Qin's.
There are also those corrupt officials who are extremely hateful. They have no professional ethics at all, and they are worse than dogs in the world like walking dead. Fan Qin is like an angel, and these corrupt officials and people who abuse their power are demons. One day, these demons will be brought by angels like Fan Qin in the sky to evolve that dirty heart.
The Cultural Journey has made me have a deeper understanding of reading. We scholars should not only study for ourselves, but also contribute our meager strength to this society and this country, so that scholars are scholars.
and how much of the culture we learned was bought by the ancients with their own painstaking efforts? It is difficult to preserve the culture. Therefore, we should cherish this unexpected culture, not waste our time, truly understand the excellent culture of the Chinese nation, and carry forward the conscience and willpower of the ancients, and resolutely not be those who forget their roots after learning, nor those who give up their studies halfway because of rubbing their responsibilities and difficulties.
Only when one has a good conscience and strong perseverance can one understand the spirit of our ancestors and inherit and carry forward the fine traditions of the descendants of the Chinese people for thousands of years. Professor Yu's Cultural Journey is like a navigation ship, and she will lead me to ponder more about the development history of China culture. I will taste it carefully, too.
