China's classical Four Great Classical Novels is a good book, but it is not a Bible.
Four Great Classical Novels called them Four Great Classical Novels because they have many incomparable and even insurmountable brilliance of other classical works of China.
The four classic novels are a fortune. There is endless wealth there. But it is by no means a "bitter medicine" that needs to be poured through the nose. This is not a mathematical formula, without which you can't go to college.
It is a ladder, which makes you poor in self-cultivation and ability accumulation, and goes up a stairs.
Teachers and parents force them to read Four Great Classical Novels, probably because there is really no more famous book. They sell their knowledge as a commodity exhibition. As we all know, most reading experiences can only be expressed in words. It inspires people and benefits them for life.
Besides, I will make a real deal with you. At your present level, learning from Four Great Classical Novels means watching the fun.
They call it a masterpiece because there are many things that are invisible on the surface. So there are so many researchers moving forward wave after wave. See what it wants to say. Therefore, we should not only read these books, but also read their research works. Take Romance of the Three Kingdoms as an example. I recommend the version with Mao Zonggang's comments.
China's culture is profound, just as we say to foreigners ... but what's the depth, do you know?
The answer lies in these excellent ancient documents. Their value is comparable to several cups of "chicken soup for the soul".
I didn't know these until I read them. If you haven't started reading yet, you don't have to study. However, it is beneficial to open books.
The utility of reading is the biggest failure of modern education. I hope you can break through.
Question 2: Why do middle school students learn from Four Great Classical Novels? What are the benefits of China's four classical novels to us? I think reading is to improve my level. Besides accumulating vocabulary, reading famous books can also be wise. The senior high school entrance examination is about some common sense of literature, and you can read famous books as after-school reading materials, especially those foreign famous books. You can have a look more if you are interested. If you are not interested, you can take them as common sense. For a junior high school student, it is difficult to understand the historical background of the stories written by those foreign famous books. I have also read many famous books in primary and junior high schools. Now I only know the general content of those famous books, as for the ideological connotation.
Ancient classics are different. In our daily life, we have come into contact with many descriptive things on TV or the Internet. If you look easier to understand, you can read more appropriately and lay a good foundation for middle school writing. Look at these things and you will certainly gain something.
In addition, China's four classical novels must be read, not only for many times. These four books are absolutely classic, and I won't say anything about promoting national culture. It is very helpful for you to write alone. It can be said that you have a thorough understanding of the four classic novels. Basically, you can draw many useful examples from middle school writing, whether it is argumentative or narrative, or a composition with narrative and discussion.
Reading these famous books is based on interest. If you are not interested, you will be very resistant to these things and can't see any tricks. You might as well spend more time on other subjects.
Question 3: Why did you choose to read Four Great Classical Novels and Journey to the West? Why is it included in "Four Classical Novels" or "Four Wonders"? This is a great work, which has created a brand-new category in the history of novels. Lu Xun called it ghost novel, just like historical romance novel, heroic legend novel, talented woman novel and so on. The Journey to the West is the pioneering work of the supernatural-evil novels, which is the historical position of The Journey to the West. The humor in the journey to the west I just talked about is also unique. Other contemporary novels, such as The Scholars, are also satirical, but unlike The Journey to the West, The Scholars is another kind, more like a foreign critical realism work in the19th century. It's not like this in The Journey to the West. Only by reading carefully can we realize this. Some characters portrayed in Journey to the West have great vitality. What I want to emphasize in particular is that they have created the image of Zhu Bajie. If it shapes the image of the Monkey King, we can generally recognize it, but we may not pay enough attention to it. Zhu Bajie is a man with both advantages and disadvantages. He works hard and is loyal to the cause of learning Buddhist scriptures, but he has shortcomings, small shortcomings-laziness and sometimes lewdness. But after watching or watching Journey to the West, are the audience or readers very disgusted with Pig Bajie? Do you hate him very much? I don't think most people will hate this role. People basically like this role. Despite its shortcomings, the pig on the stage is also liked by everyone. This is very important, that is to say, although Zhu Bajie is also a monster, he is the image of a civilian and an ordinary person. There are images and characters like Pig Bajie in our life and around us. This is different from the Monkey King, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Pig Bajie is not the kind of person who has great skills, not the kind of person who can't be seen in life. If you want to see it, you have to wait in line to keep a respectful distance from others. He is very ordinary and may meet in daily life. It is remarkable to create such an image. Lu Xun once said in the book Historical Changes of China's Novels that A Dream of Red Mansions broke all traditional writing methods. What traditional writing styles have been broken? It is absolutely good to write good people before, but absolutely bad to write bad people. This is the traditional way of writing. It is this traditional writing style that A Dream of Red Mansions breaks. Lu Xun's sentence is profound, but it is not comprehensive enough, because before A Dream of Red Mansions, this writing style was broken, and Cao Cao in The Romance of Three Kingdoms was different from the traditional writing style, that is to say, before A Dream of Red Mansions, people like Cao Cao and Zhu Bajie were not shaped according to the traditional writing style. But before A Dream of Red Mansions, it was only an individual phenomenon, not a universal phenomenon, that broke this traditional writing style. Metaphorically, there is only one tree and two trees. After the appearance of A Dream of Red Mansions, it became a vast forest. At this point, Lu Xun's words are more profound and more in line with the actual situation in the history of China's ancient novels. This is what makes The Journey to the West particularly great and extraordinary. Therefore, it is indeed well-deserved to include The Journey to the West's works in the four wonderful books and four classic novels. I think it's just a convention. It is difficult to find out who put it forward first, and there is no formal article to demonstrate and explain this problem. That's what they usually call it. But the "Four Wonder Books" are different. It has a history. I'll say "Four Classical Novels" first, and then "Four Wonders". According to the "Four Classical Novels", you may have seen the TV series. How to evaluate these four TV series, everyone may have their own views and different evaluations. I think, from the perspective of loyalty to the original, Romance of the Three Kingdoms is the most loyal to the original, and it is also quite successful in this respect. Journey to the West is the earliest. It has one of the biggest shortcomings, that is, it ignores a special style in the novel The Journey to the West, which is not reflected in TV dramas. This style is different from Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Water Margin and Dream of Red Mansions. It is humorous and satirical, unique to The Journey to the West, and later scholars inherited part of it. The TV series has not paid enough attention to this point. By the way, people have not paid enough attention to the relationship between The Journey to the West and our literary creation today. Let me introduce a situation, we can know that Journey to the West is still related to our current literary creation, and the relationship is still very close. Everyone has seen Mr. Qian Zhongshu's Fortress Besieged, and maybe there is a TV series. ......& gt& gt
Question 4: Why are the four classical novels called the four classical novels from the perspective of the "four fantastic books"?
As far as I know, Jin Shengtan was the first to rank popular novels. According to him, he intends to comment on Zhuangzi, Li Sao, Historical Records, Du Fu's Poems, The Water Margin and The West Chamber. During the reign of Kangxi in the late Qing Dynasty, Mao Zonggang and his son changed the name of Romance of the Three Kingdoms under the guise of Jin Shengtan. (Their name is Jin Shengtan, not earlier, which can also explain some problems. ). At that time, there was a saying of "Four Wonders of Ming Dynasty", and its proposal should also be regarded as a commercial means of booksellers (booksellers at least played a propaganda role); Later, the Red Chamber replaced Jin Ping Mei as the "Four Wonders of Ming and Qing Dynasties", and the four wonders were finalized. "Four Classical Novels", as the modern expression of "Four Wonders", is naturally not too early.
Therefore, the formulation of "Four Great Classical Novels" (the four fantastic books) must have appeared after the book A Dream of Red Mansions was written.
However, some people have verified that the statement of "Four Wonder Books" should have been established in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties.
Li Yu once said in the preface to The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the printed edition of Drunken Classics Hall: "Feng Menglong also has four fantastic books, namely The Three Kingdoms, Water Margin, Journey to the West and Jin Ping Mei. ..... "It can be seen that in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, Feng Menglong had formulated the four wonderful books mentioned by Li Yucheng and published them as the" first wonderful book "in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, so the reference to the" four wonderful books "has been quite fixed and popular.
But in any case, the expression of "Four Wonder Books" is the original expression of "Four Classical Novels", which should be confirmed.
