The Jade Bird is maeterlinck's most famous masterpiece. The original work is a six-act fantasy drama that is still staged on the stage. After maeterlinck agreed, his wife Georgette Leblanc adapted the play into a fairy tale to make it more suitable for young readers. The adapted novella Jade Bird was published in 1908.
The story tells the story of two lumberjacks' children and represents the process of human searching for bluebirds. Here, the bluebird is a symbol of happiness. Through their own experiences along the way, they symbolically reproduce all the sufferings that human beings have experienced so far in search of happiness. The work puts forward a question of eternal significance to mankind: what is happiness? But the conclusion of the work is unexpected: in fact, happiness is not so hard to find, and happiness is all around us. This issue is still of far-reaching significance today after the article was written 100 years ago. Happiness, as the goal that human beings have been pursuing, as an era of ideological pursuit, the soul in civilization has different definitions for thousands of years. From the social and historical background of Europe in the early 20th century, happiness at that time meant that two children from poor families could have Christmas presents (Mitier said to Titier: Tomorrow is Christmas, right? Titi said to Miti, but Santa Claus won't bring us any presents. These two simple conversations reflect the simple desire for happiness and the regret and helplessness of the two children for the disappearance of happiness. For another example, the two children thought at first that they would be happy as long as they could eat bread, snack, sing and dance. They think that what others have but they don't have is their own pursuit, and what they don't have is their own happiness. Later, in the pursuit of youth, they slowly discovered that happiness has always been around, accompanied by family members and helped and cared by relatives. Today, our definition of happiness has been following the tradition of China for thousands of years, and we believe that promotion is happiness.
We can live a very hard life, but we can't live in poverty and happiness. We can regard senior officials as success, millions as ideals and fame and fortune as symbols of happiness. For the success and happiness of these actions, we can abandon our family happiness and wander around the world. And the only happiness we don't recognize is the harmony of family and the dullness of life. In this era, we have been living for a doctrine that we may not really understand, but this truth, which is well known to western women and children, is rarely known today. I don't know if this is the sorrow of the times or the sorrow of our generation.
Chapter Two: The Jade Bird's feeling after reading.
Reading Classics —— Thoughts on Reading The Jade Bird
The Jade Bird is a masterpiece that won Nobel Prize in Literature. It tells the story of two children looking for a bluebird.
On the beach, a woodcutter's child and he had a magical dream: a fairy named Belle Lu entrusted them to find a beautiful and magical bird-the bluebird, which can bring happiness to people. Her daughter is very ill, and only this god bird can make her better. The fairy also said, "My little daughter will not be happy until she is well." So Didi and Mitty entered another world accompanied by cats, dogs and spirits of all kinds of things (candy, bread, fire and water), and went down the mountain to look for this bluebird under the guidance of god of light. They went through hardships in the Valley of Memory, the Night Palace, the Happy Palace, the graveyard and the future kingdom, and in the temple in god of light, but the Jade Bird kept looking for it and lost it, and finally failed to find it. They have to go home. On the morning after they returned home, Mrs corbett, a neighbor of Berlin, asked for a Christmas present for her sick daughter. Didi couldn't bear to refuse, so she had to give her her beloved pigeon. Unexpectedly, the pigeon turned green and became a "bluebird". The fairy's daughter recovered.
After reading this book, in this warm, clear and dreamlike delicious food, I understand that happiness can only be found by the soul and sigh. Happiness is in our hearts, it is everywhere, in the sunshine, in the air and in the smile, waiting for us to find it. But not everyone can be happy. Those who are selfish and forget their interests will never be happy, because they only know how to take. Happiness needs to be cultivated with love, watered with love and cared for with love. True happiness belongs to the soul and love.
This article uses such a dialogue:
"Pigeons! My pigeon! " The little girl began to cry.
Didi, the first runner, ran back excitedly: "Never mind, don't cry, it's still in the house."
Didi kissed the little girl, and the little girl finally smiled through tears.
"Are you sure you can find it again?" The little girl asked.
"Of course!" Didi said confidently, "believe me, I know where to find it."
I guess this bluebird must be in the house. It's all over the house. I think Bluebird is Dehe's kindness and love!
I still remember such a short story about happiness circulating on the Internet: One day, the little lion asked his mother, "Where is happiness?" Mother lion said, "Happiness is on your tail." So the little lion kept chasing his tail, but he couldn't catch it all day. He told his mother the situation. Mother lion smiled and said, "In fact, there is no need to look for happiness. As long as you persist, happiness will naturally follow you. "
Everyone is looking for their own happiness, racking their brains and going through hardships. As long as we are selfless and kind, happiness is not difficult to obtain.
In fact, happiness is around you.
Chapter Three: Reflections on The Jade Bird.
Reflections on The Jade Bird
It's strange to hear the title of "Jade Bird" for a long time. There is always a force that attracts me, makes me feel good for no reason, and has a desire to find out.
After reading Jade Bird, I am full of gratitude to the author. Belgian symbolist playwright maeterlinck left behind an eternal masterpiece of art, which made every busy and numb adult realize the need to stop, rejoiced in this magical pantomime, and comforted his childhood story that had long passed away but warmed his heart.
Jade bird is happiness. Titier and Myrtil, two innocent and lovely children, went through all kinds of strange tests and tempering to help the sick granddaughter of the witch find the legendary bluebird. And waking up is just a dream of Christmas, a dream they absolutely believe in. At this time, the female neighbor came to Titier to ask for a turtledove for her little granddaughter. It turns out that the bluebird is this turtledove, and happiness is around them. Isn't life like this? People don't lack happiness, what they lack is the eyes to find happiness. This is one of the author's intentions.
Children are always full of fantasy, while adults are addicted to reality, so the imaginative and magical imagination of the play can't help but make people admire the author. Bread, water, milk, sugar, dogs, cats and light all incarnate into adults, and their personalities are distinct and unique, such as the loyalty and integrity of dogs and the cunning and evil of cats.
The grandparents and seven brothers and sisters who died in the memory kingdom will appear as long as they are remembered by the living. The battle between children and ancient trees and animals in the forest contains profound meanings. In addition, the horror of the cemetery, the suspense of the palace of the night, the beauty of the Happy Garden and the warmth of the future kingdom all make people feel novel and memorable.
At the end of the play, the bluebird flew away, and Titil went to the stage and said to the audience, "If anyone finds the bluebird, will you please give it back to us?" For our future happiness, we need bluebirds. "From the play to the outside, hit everyone's heart outside the play. So the truth is false and the fallacy is true. Everyone will continue this unfinished drama of finding bluebirds, the eternal theme of happiness and life.
Jade Bird is by no means a fairy tale in the general sense. In addition to the magical imagination and fascinating plot, the play is full of symbolic hints and secular philosophy, and every detail is full of profound meaning. Only by savoring and pondering carefully can we not be wronged and live up to the classics left by maeterlinck.
Chapter four: The feeling of reading Jade Bird 1000.
In the traditional culture of China, Jade Bird represents the image of "happiness, light and love", which is the predecessor of Phoenix and represents auspiciousness and happiness. In the west, the bluebird is the embodiment of the Holy Spirit and a symbol of holiness and happiness. In the East and West with great cultural differences, people yearn for the same state of mind-happiness.
The mission of The Jade Bird is to make us calm down and think about the true meaning of happiness. In dreamy and delicate language, it tells the story of a brother and sister looking for a bluebird. Didi and Mitty's brothers and sisters live with their parents in the woodcutter's cabin. On Christmas Eve, brother and sister lie prone on the window and look at the rich children across the street. Their life in the bright living room is valuable because they are not jealous, but feel as happy as they are. What a precious state of mind this is.
Later, the fairy came and gave them magical magic, so under the guidance of god of light, they took Miss Milk, Mr. Bread and Miss Water to different places to look for bluebirds and miss the countryside, night palace, happy palace, future kingdom, cemetery and forest. He experienced life and death, courage and timidity, lost and persisted several times, and missed the bluebird. Sometimes I have found it, but I died on the way back; Or once caught in the hand, but unexpectedly flew away, and finally returned empty-handed in the fairy's magical world. However, after returning to real life, Didi found that the bluebird was actually in his own home. After giving his white dove to his sick neighbor and sister, he finally found a sense of happiness that he had never experienced before. He saw the white dove turn into a bluebird!
People finally know that the true meaning of happiness lies in self-sacrifice and dedication to others. Happiness exists in every detail of life. The flow of sunshine, air and time is full of happiness that people have not found. Life itself is happiness, and happiness is around you. As the author mentioned in the article: "Most people have never found happiness at their fingertips all their lives." This suggestion is enough to give me and many people who are as confused as me a warning. An unhappy person is a poor vagrant without a spiritual home.
After reading Han Han's Jade Bird, he said in the article that after being criticized by me, I felt that there was no happiness at home, which surprised me and made me very depressed. I care about him so much, but he is not happy at all! I also reflected. I may ask too much of my children. Nowadays, education is too competitive and utilitarian. I've always wanted to learn from this, but I can't fall behind. Attention should be paid to study, health, psychology and morality, which makes the supervision of children too fine and harsh. In fact, children are also under great pressure. Actually. I haven't achieved my educational goal either, which means that I am timid, stiff and lack of sufficient self-confidence. For a long time, parents who live in a tense rhythm have gradually lost their ability to perceive happiness when they get along with their children. In the pursuit of happiness, they also lost the happiness on the road. When children leave home and out of our sight, they find that growth cannot be repeated.
When we have a chance to do it again, we may lower our requirements, give our children more space, grow up slowly, clean up our anxiety in time, use a magnifying glass to discover the advantages of our children, change our mental state, and subtly affect the changes of their conduct. Really make education "intentional and intangible", let the child become a grateful, reasonable and caring citizen first, and then let him become an academically successful person.
Some people say that three things can't be delayed. One is to honor and serve parents, the other is to educate children, and the third is to learn and improve themselves. I think the biggest gain from reading the book "Jade Bird" with children this time should be to grow up with children on the basis of equality and democracy, and to find, discover and harvest the "Jade Bird" that belongs to us on this road, so that children can grow into people who have the ability to pursue and grasp happiness.
When I was a child, I was told, "The legendary bluebird is a bird that can bring happiness to people, but it is gone. As long as you can find it, it will be happy! " Later, I learned that the original "Jade Bird" is the name of a book. Whose heart is not full of yearning for happiness? So I read this book.
On Christmas Eve, a wonderful thing happened. Fairy Lu asks Kiki and his sister Mickey to help find a bluebird. Only this magical blue bird can cure her daughter's strange disease. Under the guidance of god of light, the children went to look for the bluebird. They went through a lot of hardships in the land of memory, the night palace, the happy palace and the future country, accompanied by cats, dogs, water sprite and the fire elves, but the bluebird always got lost and couldn't be found in the end. When the knock on the door of the old wall clock rang, they woke up from their sleep and everything around them disappeared. They found themselves lying in their own beds. However, this magical night, the fairy gave Kiki the power to see the world again. In Kiki's eyes, the shabby hut was painted completely new, and the shabby furniture was clean and beautiful! At the end of the story, it turned out that the happy bluebird was Kiki's little pigeon, so he gave this happy bluebird to his neighbor's sick daughter. As a result, the girl's illness was magically cured. From then on, he learned to share happiness with others, to be strong and to be generous.
When I got this book, I didn't turn it over immediately, but stared at the cover for a long time: "Happiness is not that hard to find, happiness is all around us." This is the theme that runs through the whole article, a very intriguing philosophy. When reading this book, I often stop to think: what is happiness, and how can I find and have it?
Maybe you are healthy, maybe you are rich, or have other enviable benefits-but are you happy?
In the traditional culture of China, the bluebird stands for "happiness, light and love". It is the predecessor of Phoenix, and the legend is that it is a messenger who delivers good news around the Queen Mother. Her mission is to help mankind find a spiritual paradise of happiness, purity, freedom and happiness. In the west, the bluebird is a symbol of the Holy Spirit. In the East and West with great cultural differences, people yearn for the same state of mind-happiness.
There are two fragments in the book that impressed me deeply. The two children are in memory of their grandparents who died in the country. At the mention of dead brothers and sisters, those little guys jump out. It turns out that those deceased relatives will meet in another world as long as the living remember them. If no one remembers them, they won't meet. This reminds us that when we live in this world, we should never forget our dead relatives. Moreover, in the future world, they meet their younger brother who will be born next year, because every child to be born must bring at least one item. When Kiki asked her brother what to have, the little guy said, "Measles, whooping cough, pneumonia." It was a fatal disease at that time, that is, the little guy might die, but he would still be born. This reminds us that since coming into this world is doomed to bear some hardships, we should not give up, but live with confidence and optimism. Perhaps, this is what the story of Jade Bird tells us: life itself is happy. As long as we always live with selfless good wishes and care for others, happiness will always be around us.

Three: Jade Bird's feeling after reading.
Time flies, the sun and the moon fly like a shuttle. I have finished reading the book Jade Bird, and I know a lot about it. The following are my feelings about this book.
Kiel and Mitchell are the children of Deere the woodcutter. On Christmas Eve, brothers and sisters watched the rich people eat cakes with envy. At this moment, an elf came, who turned ordinary things into talking ones: milk elf, Mr. Fire, water sprite, bread elf, candy elf, cat elf, dog elf and noble light elf. After that, he took them to the fairy's palace and gave Kiel a jewel hat, which could show the original appearance of the materials. So I started a thrilling and interesting adventure. They first went to the country of memory to see their long-lost relatives, and then went to the night palace, the forest, the cemetery, the happy garden and the future country. After the journey, the brother and sister returned to their respective homes.
What this book tells us is to let us know the true meaning of happiness. The author of this book: maurice maeterlinck 19 1 1 won the Nobel Prize in Literature and was known as the Belgian Shakespeare.
His works include: The Jade Bird, The Blind Man and The Miracle of Saint Anton. Maeterlinck's "Jade Bird" was originally a script, but later it was written into a book. In the west, the bluebird symbolizes happiness, but it also represents happiness. When people's material happiness is short-lived, they should think about where the bluebird is and what is real happiness.
