Some books are like a cup of strong tea. The bitter the taste, the better. Yu's "cultural journey" is such a cup of tea I tasted it for a long time and finally finished it, feeling endless aftertaste.
This book is a collection of essays, most of which are Yu's national travels, and a small part is his reminiscence prose. The travel notes in the book are very different from what we wrote. In addition to the description of scenery, Yu pays more attention to the detailed understanding and deep thinking of local culture. Every time I go to a scenic spot, I always write a lot of feelings about the culture contained in the scenic spot with my unique vision, either love or evil, or joy or sadness, which always makes people gain a lot and feel a lot. This is something we can't think of and do when writing travel notes. I really want to learn from Yu. In the future, I will try to add deeper cultural content and integrate more ideas into my travel notes. This kind of travel notes is wonderful.
There are 37 articles in this book, among which I like The Letter Guest best. This article vividly and profoundly describes the joys and sorrows of former believers. In fact, I admire people in this industry. They come in the wind, go in the rain, run around, give people all kinds of things all the way, and work hard just to make a living. I like the young man in the article very much. He has a kind heart and a sense of responsibility. He is a very nice person. There is also an article describing my hometown-White-haired Suzhou, which describes the 2500-year history of Suzhou and the unique charm of Suzhou culture, and describes the local customs here very delicately, which makes me more proud of my hometown.
After reading it, I am still thinking about a question: why is the book called "Cultural Journey" and where is the pain point? I think in Yu's eyes, China's long history and culture are full of bitterness, because these splendid civilizations are often destroyed, exiled and destroyed, just like the Mogao Grottoes in the Taoist Temple, the classics in the stormy pavilion, Liu Zongyuan in the temple, and the ruins, all of which make people deeply sigh and lament the difficulty of China's cultural growth.
I thought of another question. Ordinary people are always in high spirits when visiting a scenic spot. Why can he taste bitter? In the preface of this book, it says:
"I found that the places I particularly want to go to are always places where ancient cultures and literati have left deep footprints, which shows that the landscape in my heart is not entirely a natural landscape, but a' human landscape'. This is the long-standing charm of China's history and culture and its long-term influence on me, and I can't get rid of it. Everywhere I go, there is always a heavy historical pressure hanging over my whole body, which makes me inexplicably moved and sighed. I often stand like a fool, sometimes full of chapters and sentences, and sometimes blank. "
I can taste the bitterness because he is familiar with history and proficient in culture, so he can taste the bitterness behind the landscape. I think, isn't such "bitterness" a kind of happiness?
Write a cultural journey. After reading 1000 words, write about the cultural journey. Describe the ups and downs of history. -inscription
China's splendid civilization is being obliterated by time. I wonder if those people who reminisce about that sad history in the corner while lambasting historical sinners have really closed their eyes, calmed their hearts and returned to the indifference and rationality of history. I have always admired those scholars who know history and dare to criticize it. At the same time, I think Mr. Yu, a professor at Shanghai Theatre Academy, is a hero among countless scholars, and his Cultural Journey is the most outstanding top grade among thousands of literary and historical prose works.
This book is Mr. Yu's first collection of cultural essays. Some of these articles won the first prizes of various literary awards. The main purpose of this book is to seek the secrets of cultural soul and life with the help of scenery, and to explore the historical fate of China culture and the historical composition of China literati. These articles by Mr. Yu, with their profound knowledge of literature and history, rich cultural perception and artistic expression, not only reveal the great connotation of China culture, but also provide a brand-new example for contemporary prose circles.
Mr. Yu attracts readers with his unique writing charm, which is a bitter memory, an understanding after anxiety, a relaxation after meditation and a youth after old age. Like many educated youth scholars, he once sighed deeply in this book, but the same sigh appeared in different places, and the charm was far from the same. As he said, "I can be young", his life is flexible. He always upholds the passion of his youth and enjoys the leisure of his old age to spend his rich middle-aged time. Therefore, Yu Xiansheng is a half-breed at any time. So his articles are always mixed with different feelings. For example, his sadness about the loss of China culture is full of young people's insults to dissatisfaction, middle-aged people's helplessness to the world, and old people's regret for vicissitudes.
Maybe some ideas are completely unintentional, but the inspiration for writing this book is definitely intentional. Obviously, he discovered the dusty place of China's history and culture. In today's era of vigorously promoting China's splendid civilization, it is naturally more striking and thoughtful to put forward such a specious view. China's ancient civilization once created a prosperous time in ancient times. In order to preserve its prosperity, people handed down splendid culture from generation to generation, and successively built large buildings such as Mogao Grottoes and Dujiangyan. Even ordinary arched buildings and library buildings are printed with cultural traces. But people's ideals are always good, but time is against people and changes endlessly. What people want to preserve will still be washed away by time within a certain limit. Although some of them are artificial, in the final analysis, they still come from the blank of historical roulette. Some historical dust can't be left behind, and many scholars are sad and regret it. They always live in a past that doesn't belong to them, and they will never get out alive.
Therefore, "facing up to the past and the present" is an important topic I have learned from this book, and I also think it is the subject of Mr. Yu's research and warning. Because only those who truly understand the historical situation can print their own rut marks on the basis of conforming to the wheel of history.
Smoke a wicker and break a peach branch. Have a cup of tea and read a good book.
Writing about Cultural Journey: After reading the word 1000, I read Mr. Yu's cultural journey for the first time, and I don't know how to say it. At first, the Taoist Pagoda and the Mogao Grottoes were the places where I lived for 18 years, but I haven't been deeply understood by any tourists. I only remember that Monk Lejue dug the first hole, and Taoist Wang "opened" the door of the Mogao Grottoes to the world, and the rain on the Silk Road moistened this land. ...
"In the desert sunset, who is oral sex? Over time, I took off my red clothes, but I was scarred. In the desolate castle, who is playing the pipa, just wait for me to come and go in a hurry, and meet you in this life ... "A song" Flying "was played in my ear, only feeling inexplicable in my heart. Familiar and unfamiliar Dunhuang, where I was born and raised; World-famous grottoes and splendid culture.
Looking at the vast Gobi desert, it is barren everywhere. That piece of green has been scorched by the scorching sun, and once the blue was only white crystal salt, only the sky was still the same blue. The elevated iron tower has supported many people's modern dreams, and the vertical and horizontal cables have brought many people's well-off dreams. However, when all the Chinese dreams are realized. Who still remembers Dunhuang, the dream of this ancient city, a dream for thousands of years. Once, she was young and energetic, and let young people with aspirations in the motherland explore and dig on her; Once, she, Top Gun, let the mushroom cloud of the atomic bomb bloom at her feet; Once upon a time, she was full of pride and allowed a group of explorers to take away her books. Now, she is full of holes, who can see her, who is full of sadness, and who she confides in! Why is it so difficult to pursue dreams?
Whose heart is broken by the exhaustion of crescent spring, whose god is broken by the interruption of Danghe River, whose eyes are fascinated by the wind and sand all over the sky, and whose dreams are broken by the drought everywhere ... The wind and sand are raging without a drizzle. Who understands that Dunhuang's dream is drying up, and who understands that Tian Fei's hometown is about to become a legend? Once upon a time, Dunhuang people were obsessed with a name-Loulan, but who would have thought that Dunhuang would follow in his footsteps a thousand years later, how ridiculous, how ridiculous! Is Dunhuang's dream crushed like this?
Don't! No way! Beautiful flying can't be without hometown, roaring sand mountain can't lose Yue Quan, and splendid Mogao can't be covered by yellow sand!
"I hate!" Hate why Wang Daochang gave away such precious scriptures; I hate that I can't keep a small Dunhuang in China; I hate being a flying child, but I can't do anything for her when the wind and sand are raging. Mr Yu said: "China has a long history, with too many wars and too many sufferings. Except in the ground, in the grave, in a secret place that is not noticed by ordinary people, no pure relic can be preserved for a long time. " If I can choose, I would rather Dunhuang just silently gestates her Mogao until we are strong enough to protect her.
What the world can take away is not the road, but the prosperity of the world; It is not the house that can keep people, but the dream of guarding life. We are Dunhuang people, sons and daughters of Feitian, and it is my dream to protect the Dunhuang dream through the ages.
I was lucky enough to be recommended by an elegant book friend, and I was deeply attracted by Yu's work "Cultural Journey" for the first time. Yu is a famous writer and aesthetician. This China aesthetician, who is famous for "Cultural Journey" and "Notes on Mountain Residence", is praised by critics as writing prose with his left hand, which is not superficial, and it is not difficult to understand that writing artistic theory with his right hand. With rich knowledge of literature and history and beautiful words, he led readers to go boating in the long river of Millennium civilization.
The whole book is beautiful. In the process of reading, I always have the desire to continue reading, which has a depth that goes straight to the soul. Follow the circulation of words all the way with the pursuit mentality. At midnight, when I was about to fall asleep, I lit the bedside lamp and drew my fantasy in the quiet night with the author's words. Or in the idle afternoon, throw away your irritability, jump out in the faster and faster pace of life, and re-examine history through a gradually stable heart.
After reading the chapter of "memorial arch", I feel a dull pain in my heart and have a fearless admiration.
In fact, the memorial archway is something that people look up to. It is a recognition of meritorious service and a representative of loyalty, filial piety and righteousness. However, under the oppression of feudal ethics in China, chastity is the most beautiful among women in China, but beauty is so painful and scarred. A cold archway ruthlessly suppressed all their love and hate. In order to make a living, they left their homes, remained anonymous and compromised their lives.
However, they live so elegantly and exquisitely. They are like the light in the morning. When the earth was still asleep, they had thawed villages, mountains and ridges, boys and themselves.
In Cultural Journey, the delicate brushwork is enough to fill the images of most people in China, and the most ethereal and gentle voice gently sings touching moments.
The author extracts the essence from life, refines it, melts it into classics, and spreads it to our lives with people. We can learn about different lives in the simplest way. This is the quickest way to enrich yourself and improve yourself.
I like his truth, which truly describes the great disaster brought by the Cultural Revolution to the people of China and the strong generation facing the difficult future. The ancient city of Pompeii, quiet Rome and charming Venice were instantly solidified in the disaster. Living outside the camera, struggling to survive, but simple, kind and full of wisdom, the marginal person ... loves his delicate, sensitive, rich and far-reaching soul more, so that the ancients in silent history occupy the imagination space with a life-filled attitude.
This is an enviable life. A writer can record his life with his own pen, record his life with the truest attitude, express his deepest feelings, and the breeze blows the slightest tremor. I think this is unmatched by any other profession.
This author or this book gave me the impulse to pick up a pen and write down my life. However, when I put down the book, I came back to reality. In the face of mathematics, computer and other scientific things in my major, I can't help but think of a sentence said by a great man: it is science that drives away the elves behind flowers and makes the unknown world no longer full of fantasy.
It is possible that I will never be able to work as a writer in my life, but I can feel the vast and beautiful world through reading and learn to record my thoughts. One day in the future, open a slightly yellowed paper and relive a warm spring, quiet clouds and clear wind, and youth.
In the afternoon, the warm sunshine came in from the window. On the windowsill, a pot of green radish was lush, the plump leaves trembled gently in the breeze, and the lush murraya was budding.
My fingers swept the bookshelf and stayed on Mr. Yu's "Cultural Journey". The brown cover seems as kind as an old friend I haven't seen for a long time. In such a bright spring, it is a good time to make a cup of green tea.
Open the page, "The real footsteps of China culture have fallen on this vast and desolate land." Mr. Yu said this, thought this, and walked this way, dark and thin, so that the wind of the Tang and Song Dynasties washed away the last bit of youthful heroism, and finally fell wearily on the small table of the border hotel and assembled the book.
In my opinion, this Cultural Journey cannot be simply regarded as a travel book. It is more about understanding the culture of China, reflecting on the history of China, and exploring the cultural soul and life secrets. Zhang Xiaofeng said: "Mountains and rivers are the religion of China people." China people reflect their feelings about mountains, rivers and nature through words, and map the changes of life with the changes of nature. These articles, the author reveals the great cultural connotation of China culture with rich cultural feelings and details, and are worth reading.
Along the way, from Mogao Grottoes to Yangguan Snow, the author witnessed the rise and fall of the Yellow River civilization in the desert and the profound desolation of history. I have also been to the Mogao Grottoes. It was autumn and there were not many tourists. Many caves are not open. Tourists lined up and listened quietly to the tour guide telling Buddhist stories. It is said that the murals in Mogao Grottoes are connected for 60 miles. Craftsmen of all ages have dug caves and painted murals here. There are many real artists hidden in it. History is here, color is here, and life is here. No wonder the author wrote affectionately: "Look at the Mogao Grottoes, not at the specimens that have been dead for a thousand years, but at the life that has lived for a thousand years. What a magnificent life it is to live to a thousand years old with smooth blood flow and even breathing. " The Mogao Grottoes are a colorful dream, a sacred deposit and a permanent yearning in our hearts.
He wrote about Dujiangyan, arguing that the most exciting project in China's history was Dujiangyan, not the Great Wall. On the surface, its scale is far less magnificent than the Great Wall, but it is destined to benefit the Millennium steadily. If the Great Wall occupies a vast space, it actually occupies a long time. The social function of the Great Wall has long been abandoned, and it is still conveying gurgling water for countless people. Li Bing and his son are also commemorated by generations in the image of God. Hebo, the water god in Nuo Opera, was replaced by Li Bing in guanxian, and people prayed for countless Dujiangyan to bring good weather and water and soil to the whole country. People celebrate the achievements of Li Bing and his son from generation to generation in their unique commemorative way.
In a low, slightly hoarse voice, he slowly talked about the small town in the south of the Yangtze River, white-haired Suzhou, and the dream of the West Lake, expressing the beautiful, charming, fresh and graceful Jiangnan culture and social conditions. The writing of Rain Pavilion and Random Thoughts of Qingyunpu Scenic Resort directly touched on China's cultural personality and conscience, and showed the difficult course of China literati seeking truth and self for a hundred years. Mr. Yu's journey is dusty, with historical dust, ideals and struggles of China literati for thousands of years, stumbling, physically and mentally exhausted and full of hope. He asked us to look at the culture of China from a brand-new angle, to recall, to meditate, to inherit and to carry forward.
After writing the cultural journey, I feel 1000 words. When I came back from the garden of a literate man, my collar wet with dew still smelled of flowers, and my mind still had fresh memories like this morning. I don't take the liberty of saying this incoherently. I don't know if writing down inaccurate memories will be conducive to reading and nourishing qi.
I think everyone in China will feel this way. The places they especially want to go to are always places where ancient literati and culture left deep footprints. The author Mr. Yu Yuqiu thinks: "This is caused by the long-term charm of China's history and culture and its long-term influence on me, and I can't get rid of it." I think the same applies to everyone in China.
When we visit a place, we always unconsciously think about everything there, who owns it, the purpose of its construction, the historical events that have happened and who has been here. In this way, at this moment, people, history and nature are mixed together in a chaotic way, and the vicissitudes of history and life hang over every visitor's whole body, and the spirit and culture contained in the historic site can also rush out vigorously, making every visitor feel moved and sighed as if he had experienced some historical event himself.
For example, when we pass the Miluo River, there will always be a sigh with a long history in mixed feelings. Both envy the idleness of sleeping at the bottom of the river and hate the suicide of loyal ministers in Chu; I am not only impressed by the transience of things, but also glad that the spirit of Chen Chu did not die with the flowing water. I feel sorry for the ruthlessness of the surging river, and I am proud to be a descendant of the Chinese people ... All these feelings are because Chen Chu met Miluo. When we saw Miluo, we thought of its owner and felt his patriotic spirit and romantic poems.
Another example is our visit to the Great Wall. The Great Wall can become a symbol of our country because it has always shouldered the responsibility of defending the country. Walking on the Great Wall, it seems that you can clearly feel the bravery of countless heroes against the Huns, and turn your eyes to the familiar land and the eternal black eyes before you fall. The slogan "You are not a hero until you reach the Great Wall" probably comes from a simple wish: let the spirit of the Chinese nation be passed down from generation to generation. Don't understand all this, the Great Wall, the Great Wall of China, is just a long mound.
Probably, every natural landscape and human landscape needs some historical events to enrich it, to become a real monument, and to deeply infect China people from generation to generation with ancient stones and blocks. The role of literati is to realize the cultural connotation and humanistic spirit of historic sites. Therefore, literati is also an element to enrich the connotation of historic sites. Without historical events and figures, people will only have: "How powerful nature is!" Or "How high is the wisdom and technology of the ancients!" Such pure admiration, there will never be a higher level of emotion. The higher level of tourism is to understand the spirit of our ancestors and inherit and carry forward the traditional spirit of the Chinese nation for thousands of years.
The book A Cultural Journey is like a huge garden. As a bee, I can only collect a little pollen. This is for readers who like to enjoy flowers.
1000 words to write a cultural journey, read it, and you will find more possibilities. In a word, straight to the softest part of my heart. So this question has more different meanings.
When I was young, my parents would take us around during the holidays. At that time, I was still young, and I had no concept of traveling, and I had no desire. At that time, in my eyes, traveling was just posing and taking pictures in front of the scenic spots arranged by my parents, that's all.
When I was studying, I read Mr. Yu's "A Cultural Journey". After reading the whole article, I was deeply moved. Especially in the Rain Pavilion, when the author climbed the stairs in the torrential rain and asked about history again and again, I was completely moved, as if I were in it with the author, looking for the mark of history together in the rain. Later, I wrote in my comments that the author's perception of the destination far exceeds that of watching or enjoying itself, and the meaning of travel has become a combination of historical perception and feelings of home and country. At that time, I thought that tourism and scenic spots could only be inviolable. When traveling, we should go on the road with historical feelings and feelings of home and country, and look for the true meaning of travel in the aftertaste of tourist attractions and scenic spots.
Later, when I had the opportunity to travel by myself, I took the book "Cultural Journey" and went to Feng Yi Pavilion written by Mr. Yu to explore the traces of history. Unfortunately, I'm disappointed. No historical accumulation, no feelings of home and country. Tianyi Pavilion is Tianyi Pavilion. It stood quietly, but never touched a ripple in my heart. With a hint of helplessness and loss, I left Tianyi Pavilion, which I have been worried about for many years, and fell into infinite meditation on travel. For a long time after that, I was lost in the meaning of travel again and couldn't find the real motivation for travel.
Until one time, I followed the crowd to Gulangyu Island in Xiamen for a holiday. In the deserted alley of Gulangyu Island in the early morning, I strolled with the faint daylight and the crisp sound of birds, feeling the most real life on the island and feeling the heavy sense of the times in the alley. At that moment, I really met travel and understood the meaning of travel-that is, I put myself in nature and environment, feel everything, feel the changing situation, feel the world and feel the people around me. Later, looking at the photos taken at that time, I relived not the scenery, but the feeling of meeting with the trip. I think this is also the only meaning of the photos taken at that time.
According to the cloud, travel and photography are nothing more than three realms: a tour here, a shot of pure scenery, and the integration of people and scenery. However, travel will make you encounter all kinds of possibilities in a strange city every time you leave a familiar city. Jinjiling watches the sunrise, and the dazzling sunshine makes you forget to shoot; Guiling Island looked at the starry sky and suddenly felt small under the vast starry sky; Walk on the wheat trail and test your perseverance when you are tired; The poor travel in Tibet touched the deepest part of the soul in pious worship.
Without this step, no matter how high-end the equipment in your hand is, no matter how many beautiful photos you have seen, you can't appreciate the pleasure of traveling. The significance of traveling is to feel the beauty and customs of different regions and record the unique mood at that time. This is "feel the charming amorous feelings with your eyes, and keep the eternal moment with the shutter".
Thank you for bringing us such a sharing that we can watch movies and wake up our souls.
Writing a Cultural Journey: I read the word 1000, and finished the Cultural Journey intermittently. It's not easy to breathe a sigh of relief and say such a thing. If it weren't for my homework, I would definitely look at some of them and put them aside.
The cultural journey told me to look at the problem in many ways.
Professor Yu expressed his exclamation of China culture in the form of landscape. Many people on the Internet commented on this book: "The author magnified' suffering'". I didn't understand it at first, and left a reading note in the preface that "this kind of suffering can only be revealed after being shocked by nature and society." But this reading note is written in the preface, not the postscript.
I was deeply impressed by several articles, such as Lushan Mountain and Random Thoughts on Scenic Spots in Qingyunpu Scenic Resort. The author regards the changes of modern society as the tragic situation faced by China culture. This is beyond my understanding. Perhaps it is because Professor Yu is over 500 years old and has experienced many vicissitudes. I am not sophisticated enough to understand all kinds of desolation in the world.
"The temples scattered in the mountains are still burning incense, but the important levers to manipulate their rise and fall are the villas, commercial markets and streets in Guling. Generally speaking, this is no longer the world of China literati. "
Excessive pursuit of China people's understanding of ancient culture will only increase the suffering of culture. If everyone can see through the thoughts and feelings of literati and express them, it can only show that the author's thoughts are too shallow. If we look at the problem from many aspects, we will get different views. We are rich in talents in culture, and we are not inferior in other fields such as science and technology and sports. While feeling sad, the author should also be proud of other successes in our country. Because of the earthquake, we lost our motherland, the witness of China culture: Dujiangyan. Scholars are bound to cry for this loss, but after the disaster, we have gained a lot, which has made us more United, learned selfless dedication and awakened our China heart. Although all this is too expensive.
Looking at the problem from multiple angles can get a broader perspective. Everything in the world is a double-edged sword and is closely related to each other. Maybe looking at it from another angle will make us suddenly enlightened.
In the cultural journey, the author well interprets the cultural differences between the south and the north, such as white-haired Suzhou people and Shanghai people.
Although I don't like Yu as much as many young people in the new era, I have to say that the author's erudition impressed me. Whether writers, painters, historical figures or writers, they can show us everything neglected by young people with detailed language, views they read and famous quotations. As a liberal arts student, I really feel that I know too little about culture. The cultural journey really taught me a lot of knowledge.
Although I don't like it, I still have to read the Cultural Journey carefully and savor the rest of my works.
