Famous books are called classics, which have high literary value and historical significance. However, when reading famous books, we can't ignore the ideas and values conveyed in them. Because the influence of famous works is not limited to the literary field, it can affect readers' values, our behavior and way of thinking, and even our social culture. So it is necessary to review the three views of famous works.
First of all, masterpieces should convey correct ideas and moral values. We can't ignore wrong ideas because it has high literary value. For example, although Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu in A Dream of Red Mansions are deeply in love, their love is against morality and ethics, so we should clearly realize this when reading, and should not imitate it. Classic works such as The Analects of Confucius and The University are correct moral and ethical models, which we should actively learn and inherit.
Secondly, masterpieces should also convey values that meet the requirements of the times. Human society is constantly developing and changing. With the progress of the times, our values should also keep pace with the times. Therefore, the concept of revenge and tit-for-tat in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is no longer suitable for the development of modern society. However, some famous works in the new period, such as Red Rock, convey the progressive and innovative spirit that modern people should have.
Finally, the reading needs of famous books are helpful to our spiritual growth and improvement. When reading famous books, we should pay attention to the philosophy and wisdom of life contained in them, learn their thoughts and ways of doing things, and improve our literacy and thinking level through critical and creative reading of famous books.
To sum up, although masterpieces are literary classics, their ideas and values permeate our lives and affect our growth and development. Therefore, we should not only appreciate the value of literature, but also look for the corresponding moral concepts, ideological systems and philosophy of life, and at the same time judge and discriminate these ideas, so as to realize the positive influence of famous works on our spiritual enlightenment and growth.
