Zhang Ming's writing is as humorous as ever. This book is the second book written by him that I have read after "Revisiting Modern Chinese History". Although the layout of this book is not very systematic, it does show that the author's writing style and skills are very strong. Factual commentary style. The author conducts a comparative analysis of interesting historical events in various periods, and also intersperses some popular news at the time, which is highly discussable. It can be both alarming and constructive. There are indeed a lot of truths written in it, not only about history, but also about things happening around us.
Professor Zhang Ming is a famous historian in my country. I have read several of his books. History and the present are two important dimensions for us to understand and understand the world. History is the recording and study of past events. It provides an in-depth understanding of past experiences and lessons and helps us understand the present context and phenomena. The present refers to the current moment and what is happening, which reflects the latest state of society, economy, politics and culture. Current conditions and trends are often influenced by historical events and decisions, and historical experience will also play a role in current decisions and actions.
Studying history makes people wise. This is the most profound sentence I remember when I studied in high school. This book begins with five chapters: History is not a reflection, History is not a lesson, History is not a criticism, Elegance of the world, and my reading. There are more than 60 short stories in it. There are stories from ancient times, modern times and what happened around him. The author's views are very unique, but many of the jokes that borrow from the past to satirize the present make people feel a bit radical and angry. But I can see that he is a very experienced person. Experience is a very valuable asset. You can read this if you want to kill time when you are bored.
Finished reading. Disadvantages: 1 The article is too short and often ends before a point is deeply explored. 2 Maybe because I read Wu Si's book, I don't feel that the way of writing based on my own experience is convincing enough. Of course, this is still a good book, and the author also said that it was written in prose form. So give it 4 stars. [Think]
The writing style of this book is really humorous and the writing style is very sharp! The author's comments on history and reality are truly unique, as if he were chatting with you face to face. I especially like the section about Yang Guang in the book. The extravagance of Emperor Yang is vividly described, which opened my eyes. Moreover, it is rare for the author to be able to tell history in such a relaxed way, and it does not feel boring at all. All in all, this is a very interesting book and worth reading!
I admire people who can both read and write books.
Surreal and wonderful
Sometimes the solution to a problem is more difficult to grasp than the problem itself. Maybe there is no solution to the problem. People can't be killed, and evil can't be eradicated.
