-Appreciation of "From Baicao Garden to San Tan Yin Yue"
First, the "horizontal branch" is handy.
"Flowers bloom in the morning. "Introduction" said: "Guangzhou is really hot, and the sunset enters from the west window, forcing people to barely put on a thin coat. I've never seen a pot of' water branches' on my desk: it's just a section of tree. As long as it's immersed in water, its branches and leaves are lovely. Look at the green leaves, edit the old manuscript, and finally make a difference. ……"
"Confession on the desk" is as simple as that, but it's just a trunk. Moistened by water, green and fresh leaves were born. Facing it, the fiery mood is cold, and it seems that you can really find "a little leisure" in confusion. "Flowers bloom in the morning and pick up in the evening" is to remember the fruits and vegetables of childhood. When the old things happened in the early years, one article was "lush".
Even in this "introduction", "balance of water" is not something that must be written. Maybe it just happened that there was a paragraph on the desk, which was readily available and seemed meaningless. But careful readers will remember. "Horizontal branches of water" seems to be a metaphor for the content and style of "morning flowers pick up in the evening".
Idle. Lightness. Interesting. -The edge is hidden in some paragraphs of some articles, especially "A Hundred Herbs Garden to Three Ponds Reflecting the Moon", which is almost written with a smile, showing a simple and happy life of a young child and a primary school student, chasing the childhood scenery in his arms, pure and transparent.
"From Herb Garden to Sunpool Reflecting the Moon" is more like a lovely "water cross", and the beauty of water cross lies between branches and leaves.
Second, Lu Xun's own words.
Lu Xun said in the section "Suddenly enlightened":
Foreign books on academic literature and art are often mixed with gossip or jokes, which makes the articles lively and makes readers feel particularly interested and not tired. However, in some versions of China, all these were deleted, leaving only difficult lectures, which brought him closer to the textbook. This is like a man who folds flowers; Except all the branches and leaves, only flowers are left. Of course, folding flowers is folding flowers, but the vitality of flowers is gone. When people lose their ambitions, or unconsciously hold the heart of leaving no room, I am afraid that the future of this nation will be worrying. The above two things, of course, are smaller than cow hair, but they are one of the manifestations of the spirit of the times, so they can also be analogized to other things. For example, the current equipment is sloppy (the world mistakenly thinks that it is readily available), the construction is cut corners, and the work is perfunctory, so that it is not "beautiful" or "lasting". These are all a source. Even if I use this analogy to something bigger, I think it's ok.
Lu Xun's essay "This is Life" written during his serious illness also emphasized: "People who cut off branches and leaves decide not to get flowers and fruits."
Gossip in any prose has the nature of branches and leaves. Without these branches and leaves, the beauty of prose will be lost a lot.
Third, the charm of "free pen".
1, calm down and write.
When you speak, you are not in a hurry. The beauty of prose lies not in telling a detailed and complete story, but in its sincere and cordial tone, that is to say, it has a special charm and emotion, and a mysterious problem-solving thing flows out of the writer's soul. Repeated appearance, back and forth, let readers feel the same, follow the gossip, wander around, and see the scenery everywhere.
Writing casually is not a rambling address, nor is it that you have nothing to find, just cramming them into paragraphs. "Idleness" is a leisurely attitude in writing and a comfortable and relaxed posture. Those "unimportant words" are extremely rare until the writer writes to a certain extent. Beginners often attach too much importance to what they think is important, and each stroke is closely related to the main idea, and they dare not slack off. Therefore, their writing is rigid, and they have lost the exquisiteness and interest in details. In the eyes of readers, they also think that the author is anxious and leaves no room. They think that it is like "writing for the exam". Only a truly mature writer will gradually realize that being able to write a "free pen" is a rare realm and a kind of writing confidence. Similarly, it is also a sign of mature readers to be able to appreciate the interest and profound meaning of the author's leisurely pen and ink and to read the branches and leaves of the article calmly.
Generally speaking, some words can be said or not, but deleting them will appear cramped and thin, not rich and knowledgeable, too purposeful and narrow-minded.
2. Full of energy and broad vision.
Some people say: Lu Xun's words are like walnuts. As long as we break through its hard shell and overcome a layer of stylistic obstacles, we will find how delicate and rich its heart and texture are. This can be aimed at some of Lu Xun's essays and novels, especially the prose poem Weeds. As far as "morning flowers pick up in the evening" is concerned, its exquisiteness and richness are not particularly difficult to understand. Because this book or most of the pages in the book have no "hard shell", most of the articles in Morning Flowers are accurate, concise, lively and smart, and even retain the innocence of children. This language is the concrete expression of the author's spiritual world, full of words, full of the author's spirit and skillful writing, and can show the width of the author's vision. He doesn't just stare at a point or a small piece, but up and down. He can control it freely. I have read George Orwell's words: shallow thinking makes our language vulgar and inaccurate; The random disorder of language makes it easier for us to have shallow ideas. -"Morning Flowers and Evening Picks" has no pen and ink, but it is not messy. Along the road of Lu Xun's language, you can slowly walk into his rich spiritual vision.
3, calm and elegant, sensible and sincere.
Kafka's famous saying, "Emotional boredom is hidden behind the passionate style". Then Chen Ho's vivid feelings are combined with simple and sincere words. In dribs and drabs of random pen.
4. Example: From "Vanilla Garden" to "San Tan Yin Yue"
1, theme statement: The article shows children's psychology of loving nature and enjoying a free and happy life by recalling the life of Baicaoyuan and Santan Yinyue.
Flowers in the morning and flowers in the evening are memories written by Lu Xun after being oppressed by the government, excluded by "scholars" and devastated by war. It is not easy for the author to find some leisure in such confusion. At present, it is so bizarre, and his heart is so mixed. When a person only has memories, his life is likely to be boring in the end, but sometimes he has no memories.
Memories of the past are only a little comfort to real life. Every good memory has a tragic ending: the copies of the vanilla garden and Xiu Xiang were sold, and the old mother passed away in a hurry. Behind the Twenty-four Filial Piety, which should inspire people's love, there is an ugly and evil heart that seeks people's lives and teaches people to see through it. I went abroad to study and met a teacher I admired, but I left, because I thought it was more important to cure people's spirits than their physical diseases. Fan Ainong, an old friend who works and teaches at school, is really diligent, but he can't get rid of poverty and drowning.
In the narrative of this series of bittersweet events, the author also examines some of his ideological roots, such as hating cats, and the reverie brought to the author by the disappearance of a hidden mouse is just a symbolic idea: when I lose my love and my heart is empty, I will fill it with the evil thoughts of revenge! This is why the author hates cats: it is stealing people's love. Judging from Lu Xun's life experience, hating and hating is only a natural response to lack of love, loss of love and regret for love.
Under this detail, the author played a sad joke on himself: his hatred for cats was unreasonable. Although cats eat mice, the mice he hid were not eaten by cats, but trampled to death by his big mother. So you hate your big mom? In the next memory, the eldest mother was really bored, occupying the whole bed when she slept, and her mind was full of bad rules and stupid beliefs. It is such a long mother who turns the author's vision into a reality that others can't pay attention to. The eldest mother, who can't read, bought an unknown Classic of Mountains and Seas and gave it to me. It is precisely because of this love for the big mother that has not been extinguished by the old morality that the author remembers her and remembers her.
In Memory of Flowers Blooming, the author wrote many times about the failure and narrowness of feudal education.
Go back to childhood with the author sooner or later and relive those people and things. Experience the process of studying in Japan and cherish the memory of old friends who have passed away. Following this clue, I saw the life scenes and psychological processes of the characters centered on "I" in the early twentieth century. After reading every meaningful and memorable ending sentence, my heart ebbs and flows with the author.
