A Book to Understand "strange People in the World
About This Novel
This book takes Feng Jicai's novel "Strange People in the World" as the research object, and reveals how this literary classic uses "strange people and strange things" as a prism to reflect the urban life and craftsman spirit of Tianjin Wei in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. Focusing on the core proposition of "seeing wonders in the world", the book deeply analyzes classic cases such as Brush Li's "Black clothes do not dye white", Clay Figurine Zhang's "The Universe in the Sleeve", Su Qikuan's "Seven Rules", etc., Showing the "skills are close to the Tao" state reached by craftsmen in the practice of skills. Paying special attention to the modern enlightenment of the text - from the survival rules of dock culture to the reputation mechanism of teahouses and rivers and lakes, the book transforms Feng's unique language humor and script narrative techniques into the key to interpreting market philosophy. Finally, it travels through a hundred years of time and space, providing contemporary readers with a spiritual reference against the impetuous society.
