2. See the charm of calligraphy from the meaning of literati's creation. It is naturally an effective perspective to look at the "people" in "Words as People" from the "morality" of literati, but its shallow perspective is also obvious, because the literary achievements are not just the simple externalization of people's morality in real life.
The so-called literati style, in my personal understanding, is the indomitable temperament, which is just the opposite of the flattery and cowardice like a pug. Life is worse than death.
Social development:
In today's society, the competition is increasingly fierce, and the rapid economic development leads to a relative depression in the spiritual and cultural fields, and the value of literati seems to be depreciating day by day. Face the reality calmly and objectively, be willing to be poor, endure loneliness, be free from the influence of worldly glitz, concentrate on writing articles that you have the responsibility to write and like to write, and maintain the proper character of a scholar. This is what real scholars should do.
Contemporary literati should have epoch-making and advanced significance in economy, culture, science and technology and social life. We must have a high sense of social responsibility and historical mission, firmly grasp the pulse of the times, pay attention to society, reflect the sufferings of the people, criticize the evils of the times, and promote the righteousness of the world.
This book reproduces the character of China literati.
