Grass roots began in the United States in the 19th century, when the United States was immersed in a gold rush. At that time, it was widely rumored that where the grass roots grew luxuriantly on the surface of mountain soil, there was gold underneath. Later, when the term "grassroots" was introduced into the field of sociology, "grassroots" was given the connotation of "grassroots people".
In recent cultural studies, scholars have often quoted the term "grassroots". Weeds have tenacious vitality because of their ordinary nature; Weeds are life created by sunlight, water and soil; Weeds seem to be loose, but they are endless; Weeds will never grow into towering trees, but they will live forever because they are rooted in the earth.
Weeds are endowed with people's spirit, even with stubborn human weakness. Grassroots has strong cohesion, more vitality and independence. Tianjin's Wei culture, wharf culture and Xiaoyanglou culture are all derived from the grassroots nature of Tianjin culture, and grassroots culture should be recognized as the most fundamental characteristic of Tianjin culture.
Grass-roots culture is relative to imperial culture and palace culture. Born and raised among the people, it has not been guided and standardized by mainstream consciousness, nor has it been processed and transformed by cultural elites. It is full of local flavor and rich knowledge of life. Grassroots culture not only sets the life concept of Tianjin people, but also affects the spiritual realm of several generations of Tianjin people.
Tianjin's roads expand by the river, not for vertical and horizontal norms, but for convenience and smoothness. Such a road, like a street, twists and turns, regardless of north, south, west and east. Beijingers can't find the north when they visit Tianjin, and the grass-roots culture confuses the imperial city culture, guilty and guilty.
People-oriented residential buildings include standard quadrangles, luxury houses and small foreign buildings, as well as miscellaneous houses and "fence lights". Living conditions are by no means a sign of Tianjin people's identity. The rich and powerful have "A Dou", and there are strange people in the market, so they don't show off themselves in residential areas. There is no fence in the courtyard, and residents from all directions are mixed; The courtyard twists and turns, strangers visit, get in, but can't get out; Outside every household, there are briquette stoves and trucks parked to make a living. The glass of the car reads "Li Ji Roast Chicken" and "Mr. Liu Sauted Meat", all of which are family-owned famous brands.
Why Tianjin people live righteously stems from the grass-roots complex, and being upright is the highest moral criterion of Tianjin people. Tianjin firms, honesty-oriented, until the wind of breaking the law flourished, Tianjin did not produce fake wine, did not sell counterfeit drugs, and there was no major case of human trafficking. No cheat people, no harm, no ill-gotten gains, and build a harmonious society.
Tianjin is one of the birthplaces of China's modern education, with no champion, Wenyuan Pavilion, Wenshui Pavilion, Bailudong and Yuelu Academy. One of the reasons is the grass-roots characteristics of Tianjin culture-facing the education of the overwhelming majority of people, it is naturally the most vital education.
Tianjin Art Garden shows the grass-roots nature of culture. As a famous saying in the field of opera, Beijing learns opera, Tianjin sings red, and Shanghai earns silver. The forbidden palace in Tibet, which flows in the church meeting, is at most a kind of appreciation. Only when Tianjin sings red and gets the recognition of the overwhelming majority of the people, can it have artistic life after going through a grassroots process. As the birthplace of Quyi, crosstalk, drum, pendant, Dan Xian, storytelling and current tune-Tianjin is the fertile field for cultivating artists, and Tianjin people are the bosom friends of artists. In modern times, several operas matured in Tianjin, and even moved from Tianjin to the whole country-grassroots is their success gene.
"Jing Youzi" and "Wei Zuizi" are the general definitions of Beijingers and Tianjin people by China people, and they are also the differences between the cultural landscapes of the two cities, which fundamentally summarize the personality characteristics of Beijingers and Tianjin people. It is repugnant to say that Beijingers are "Beijing Youzi". Tianjin people are proud to say that they are "defenders".
The eight major cuisines compete with each other, and Tianjin people who love to eat are naturally unwilling to be lonely and create their own delicious food. Goubuli steamed stuffed bun, 18th Street twist, and Erduoyan fried cake. Regardless of the characteristics of these three famous foods, only the titles of these three famous foods, 18th Street, Erduoyan and Goubuli, are full of kindness.
As the so-called grass-roots cultural connotation, grass-roots cultural packaging, and out-and-out grass-roots culture, Tianjin deserves diversity.
"Grass-roots culture"
The other day, the author watched the dialogue "Grass-roots culture" in the column "Impact", and the program was wonderful. The collision of ideas could arouse a touch of bright color. Now, "Super Girl" is in full swing. In order to participate in the registration, many girls have not reached the age standard, and they have to register with fake ID cards. As a result, the fake ID card market is booming. "Civilian idols" and "civilian heroes" are no longer myths, but are now facts. What kind of "emerging culture" is breeding under the multicultural background? What changes have taken place in thinking coldly, exploring the source of "grassroots culture" and the value orientation of mass aesthetics?
The public, as a receiver, accepts the impact of information from all sides, and the information society is fast and efficient, which makes us overwhelmed and collects all the information that happens in our fields of interest every day. In the market economy, most of us act as a group of consumers, and culture and entertainment are indispensable for men and women living in cities. This is popular today, and that will be popular tomorrow. Your pace is always half a beat behind the fashion.
It's rare to see "super girls" in 25. After half a year, many super girls are still very popular and are sought after by young men and women. There are media reports in heaven: "Chris Lee's appearance price is 5,, and other super girls are also hundreds of thousands." Some people question that such a "civilian idol" will not last long. Some people think that it is recognized by the public and cannot be too demanding. "Degang Guo Phenomenon" and "Gaga Incident" are the products of this multi-culture. Some people think that "existence is reasonable". From the Marxist point of view, what kind does this belong to?
the confrontation between "grassroots culture" and "elegant culture". Some people criticize "grass-roots culture" and think that it will eventually be eliminated if it is not improved to "elegant culture"; Some people think that "elegant culture" also evolved from "grass-roots culture". Without "grass-roots culture", opinions vary.
As far as personal acceptability is concerned, the author is also an audience of "Super Girl". I didn't miss the competition of "Super Girl" in 24 and 25. Of course, it's only my personal preference, so I shouldn't make too many comments. Some people think that it is hype, and it can be hyped to such an extent that it is also a skill. If you refuse to accept it, you can't do it.
The more society develops, the new things that have never appeared will be staged one by one, and before you are ready, they will surge in and sweep the whole earth. Social development is progress. Of course, we human beings need progress more. Keeping up with the pace of social development is what we have to do, so as not to lose ourselves in such a multicultural impact wave and make ourselves walk more steadily.
Nostalgia. Fashion
Speaking of cutting edge and fashion, I, the 8s generation of the last century, also feel very backward, chasing fashion and feeling the cutting edge of culture. We always lag behind fashion by half a beat. One thing is popular today, and the other will be popular tomorrow. I understand that people will even call you "old-fashioned" when it comes to today, and you suddenly have to smile sadly.
Being at the forefront of popular culture seems a little scary; Standing at the forefront of popular culture, it seems a bit at a loss. Keep a clear head and always warn yourself, keep a good attitude and always examine yourself. The author, however, has a nostalgic complex, always turning over the yellowed pages, listening to intermittent cassettes, savoring the carefree version of classic movies and following last romance's immortal feelings. Those time rings that have slipped can no longer be rolled over, leaving only deep marks on the ground.
Listen to Tayu Lo and count the days; Listen to Zheng Zhihua, decadent and depressed; Listen Beyond, young and frivolous; Listening to Cai Qin, his eyes are still clear; Listen to Little Tiger, the love song of youth; Listening to the four heavenly kings, love songs are still beautiful. Listen too much, too much, but you can't do your inner feelings together.
The dark zone of sound and shadow keeps that bright color. Forrest Gump's meditation when sitting alone; Brother's clear eyes are like water; Recalling the fleeting youth ... how many classics, how many dreams, how many thoughts and how many sorrows. "Let everything go with the wind" and "You are like the north wind blowing away my dreams". Recalling the classics in Zhong Zhentao's songs is like feeling like a lifetime ago.
