Interpretation of patriotism in the May 4th Movement is the source of the May 4th spirit, and democracy and science are the core of the May 4th spirit.

Modern intellectuals in the historical and cultural context of China are the product of cultural transformation caused by the cultural conflict between China and the West in modern times. If the modern intellectuals represented by Kang Youwei, Liang Qichao and Yan Fu are called the first generation of modern intellectuals in China, then the modern intellectuals represented by Chen Duxiu, Hu Shi and Lu Xun can be called the second generation of modern intellectuals in China. These modern intellectuals who have gained a high degree of subjective consciousness from cultural conflicts and bravely shouldered the burden of "learning from the West" are also called "advanced China people". [1] Different from the scholar-officials or literati groups in the history of China, intellectuals in the modern sense refer to people who express their unique thinking and distinctive "public concern" about society, history and culture with independent personality, independent identity and independent value standards with the help of knowledge, culture, thought and spirit, and have a strong sense of public conscience, social responsibility and historical mission. In the modern ideological and cultural history of China, Lu Xun is undoubtedly the most outstanding representative of modern intellectuals in China. His thoughts, consciousness, ideas, theories, opinions and personality all typically reflect the spiritual characteristics of modern intellectuals in China, especially his modern consciousness composition, mental journey and the spiritual characteristics reflected, which can be said to be the spiritual epitome of modern intellectuals in China.

The May 4th Movement aims to solve the problem of national peril. Therefore, the spirit of the May 4th Movement can play a powerful role in promoting the main body of this historical theme. The spirit of the May 4th Movement reflects the new thought that the May 4th Movement is different from the democratic revolution in modern China, and it is also a brand-new personality characteristic of the pioneers of the May 4th period. It is manifested in the following four unifications: first, the conscious and extensive unity of enlightenment and national salvation; Second, the unity of intellectuals and working people; Third, the unity of hard work and enterprising spirit; The fourth is the unity of independence and selfless dedication. As a cross-century generation, it is the responsibility to bring the spiritual heritage accumulated in the century they are about to send away into the new century, and the May 4th spirit belongs to such spiritual heritage. Therefore, we should not only inherit the May 4th spirit, but also carry it forward.
Edit this paragraph to introduce the spirit of the May 4th Movement in detail.
The spirit of the May 4th Movement is desirable and worthy of praise. At the beginning of last century, in May of 19 19, China's hot-blooded youth, as a new social force, stepped onto the historical stage and set off the great May 4th patriotic movement. 9 1 year has passed, and the May 4th spirit with patriotism and rejuvenation of China as the core has always inspired young people in China to strive for the prosperity of the motherland and the great rejuvenation of the nation. The spirit of the May 4th Movement is the sacred spiritual pursuit of warm-blooded youth spontaneously and gradually. Its blood is passed down from generation to generation and sublimated into the embodiment of patriotism. In different historical environments, its main purpose is different. During the May 4th Movement, patriotism concentrated on saving the nation from extinction. After the founding of New China, it showed the heart of serving the country; The period of bringing order out of chaos is characterized by the pursuit of truth and concern for the future and destiny of the country. So, what is the new connotation of patriotism today? Looking back on the patriotic thoughts and behaviors that have had great influence in recent years, from 1999 protesting against the bombing of our embassy in Yugoslavia by the United States to 200 1 the plane collision incident in the South China Sea between China and the United States, until recently protesting against the historical actions of the Japanese government and the right-wing forces, we can actually clearly see the new spiritual core and value of contemporary patriotism: to maintain it in the increasingly frequent international exchanges and irreversible globalization. In the context of China's development attracting worldwide attention, seek a new orientation and direction of China in the world; In the reality of expanding foreign exchanges, we will explore new contents that constitute our national spirit and national character. We should realize that contemporary patriotism is a stronger desire for national prosperity and national rejuvenation than at any time. In the new historical period, this patriotism should reflect rational thinking, open mind and development vision. If fully played properly, she will reshape our national spirit and become a powerful driving force for rejuvenating China. In addition, as in any major historical period in the past, youth organizations will certainly play an active and constructive role in it. Different from patriotism in the past decades, contemporary patriotism is more concentrated in the communication between China and the outside world, showing a strong desire to safeguard national interests. This wish, based on the rapid development and growing strength of China, strives to realize our century-old ideal of "standing among the nations of the world" and win our real equal position in the world. Contemporary patriotism itself is also a kind of thinking, a kind of thinking based on the present situation and future of the country, the nation and the individual. As the main force of patriotic thought and behavior, young people need to pay attention to such a question: What caused this group to undergo an obvious change during the period of 10-from keen imitation of western culture to patriotism becoming a broad emotional resonance? The first answer is our development and the reflection caused by various conflicts in development. Based on the reality of peace, development and openness, exploring the new content of national spirit and national character is the foundation of our national future, and it is also our responsibility and obligation that we can't refuse at present. It was at this time that young people began to explore and try the form of patriotism spontaneously because of their sensitivity and activity. We still need to think about the essence of contemporary patriotism. For example, in the face of hostile acts of other countries, do you hold an extreme attitude of sweeping everything without analysis or identification? For the historical memory of aggression, how should we learn from history and face the future? When we express our personal feelings, do we take into account the overall situation of the country and national interests responsibly? Should reasonable and legal expressions be observed between means and ends? Patriotism, as a spiritual pursuit, besides emotional expression, how will it be concretely implemented in our study and work? All this requires us to think and seek answers. Young people, since the May 4th Movement, have been pushing forward the history with their keen and enthusiastic youth. At the same time, young people have grown up with this progress, shouldering the historical responsibility for this country and shaping the national spirit with the light of the times. I believe that the young people in China who have won great glory will surely win even greater glory in the new historical period.
