Dublin's Four Literary Heroes

Richard Ellman's Lectures on Irish Literature, winner of the National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize for Biography, is a literary lecture on four profoundly influential Irish writers (Wilde, Yeats, Joyce and Beckett), which is both academic and readable. It may be said that these four people formed a strange combination. And similarities that they themselves were unaware of began to emerge: they were both far from home, witty, obscure, and violent. These Dubliners are outstanding and self-satisfied, even when they think they are down and out, they still show off their wealth, just like Pythagoras in Yeats's poem, with golden stockings. They raise and challenge their own assumptions, they move between art and anti-art, pleasure and fear, acceptance and abandonment. The fact that they all came from the same city doesn't mean much, but like their motherland, they fought hard for independence, despised occupation by external powers, and had many internal differences. These qualities are not unique to Ireland, but they are epitomized in Ireland. With these four native Dubliners, a city once forced into empire regained its power to influence the world with another kind of dominion: the dominion of art. --Richard Elman

The Freedom That the Market Cannot Give (Translated Documentary)

Understand why young people are more inclined to socialism from historical nuances, and describe the future of democratic society through the confrontation between freedom and market. Health insurance, student loan debt, retirement security, child care, and access to homeownership are all issues driving the current political debate in the United States. They are linked by the same question: Should free markets determine people's lives? Mike Conchar, a well-known American economic commentator, answered this question with a resounding no. A 2019 poll showed that nearly half of young Americans preferred "living in a socialist country." In the age group of 18 to 24, 61% of young people expressed a positive evaluation of the word "socialism", while in the age group of 55, the proportion was less than 29%. By looking back in history, Conchar found that not just during the Progressive Movement or Roosevelt's New Deal era, but as early as the founding of the country, Americans' definition of freedom included freedom from the market. Konchar pointed out that among the many freedoms Americans cherish, there are many that the market cannot provide. In fact, some basic resources for human survival cannot be fully marketized, such as land, labor and time. Civil movements such as Occupy Wall Street also show that the public has sharply criticized and reflected on the overly market-oriented democratic society in the United States.

Writing poetry is a natural thing, an expression of emotion, and a record of a vivid moment. This book records the beautiful memories that a certain period of time brought into the author's mind, as well as the discoveries and touches of the moment. Sometimes it is very simple, sometimes it is very complicated. The author's various moods naturally merge into some sentences, which are like auspicious feathers, illuminating her still uneasy and fluctuating heart. When consciousness is transformed into language, complexity gradually becomes simpler, and uneasiness and fluctuation gradually go away.

No matter what environment they are in, they can discover all kinds of different beauties in life, even if they are small and ordinary, they can feel the joy of living, breathing and being together.
