This book takes Bai Juyi's long-form narrative poem "Pipa Xing" as the research object, and reveals how this eternal masterpiece of "the end of the world" uses the encounter on an autumn night at Huanpukou as an incision to complete the dual reflection of personal destiny and the tragedy of the times. Focusing on the core proposition of "empathy", the book provides an in-depth analysis of Pipa Girl's decline from "young people fighting over heads in Wuling" to "businessmen focusing on profit over separation", and how Bai Juyi's journey from being an outspoken admonisher to being demoted to Jiangzhou Sima achieves soul resonance through music. Special attention is paid to the charm of "synaesthesia" art in the poem - the auditory translation of "big strings are noisy like heavy rain", the emotional explosion of "the silver bottle is broken and water slurry bursts out", showing the unique talent of text reconstruction of music. Finally, traveling through thousands of years of time and space, under the theme of "We are all fallen people at the end of the world", we explore the inspiration of this work to modern society: when material abundance and spiritual loneliness have become the norm, the poem's transcending class understanding, resilience against adversity, and the power of artistic redemption still provide contemporary people with precious emotional resonance and life enlightenment.

Liang Mancang

130K0

Mr. Liang Mancang is an expert on the Three Kingdoms Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. He has been deeply involved in the field of Three Kingdoms history for many years and has extensive influence in academia and reading circles. This book selects fifteen articles written by Mr. Liang on the history of the Three Kingdoms. It focuses on character research, explains the profound things in simple terms, and discusses historical events by telling stories about historical figures. This book breaks through the stereotyped and stylized tendencies of the characters in the Three Kingdoms in the past, and presents the characters' multiple personalities and characteristics in different historical environments. The characters involved in this book include Cao Cao, Xun Yu, Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo, Guan Yu, Emperor Wei Ming, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Sun Quan, Zhu Ran, Sima Zhao, etc. Through the analysis of historical data: why Guan Yu, as a warrior, had an indissoluble bond with the Spring and Autumn Period, and what was his motivation for reading the Spring and Autumn Period; Lu Bu's killing of Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan was due to their capricious personalities, or there were complex social and political reasons; why Cao Cao can be called a "superhero" and Sima Zhao can only be called a careerist; through the microscopic analysis of the Zhu family, it reflects the relationship between Sun Wu's imperial power and the powerful families in the south of the Yangtze River. In short, the narrative perspective of this book is both academically cutting-edge and in line with the public's reading preferences.

The Twilight of Geopolitics: Generals and Geographers

(us) Hans Weigert

146K0

This book is an intellectual biography of the German geopolitical scientist Haushofer. The author Hans Weigert shows the origins of German geopolitical thought, and focuses on analyzing the ideological connection between Haushofer and Spengler, Ratzel, and Mackinder, clarifying the important value of Haushofer's thought in understanding Pacific geopolitics. Weigert criticized Haushofer for being responsible for the foreign expansion of the German nation, believing that his doctrine advocated German conquest based on natural laws and ignored human nature. However, Haushoferism is not the root cause of German geopolitics; it is just a symptom of modern Western diseases. This book was written in 1942, shortly after the outbreak of the Pacific War. Although it is eighty years ago, it still has reference value for the formation of our understanding of geopolitics.

This book takes Mo Yan's masterpiece "The Red Sorghum Family" as the research object to reveal how this "secret history of the nation" reconstructs historical memory with the wild narrative of Northeast Gaomi Township. Focusing on the core image of "red sorghum" - which is both a totem of primitive vitality and a container of love, struggle and national spirit, the book deeply analyzes the cultural significance of "bandit heroes" such as Yu Zhan'ao and Dai Fenglian in subverting traditional narratives, and shows how Mo Yan used carnival language to sublimate bloody violence into aesthetic expression. Special attention is paid to the novel's deconstruction of official history: through folk memory fragments, multiple perspectives and magical realism techniques, it presents the real and chaotic rural China during the Anti-Japanese War. Finally, through the bloody mist of the sorghum field, I question the dissolution of the blood of the nation by modern civilization in the melancholy of "the degradation of the species", and complete an affectionate review of the memory of the land and the force of life. This book is not only a literary criticism, but also a key to Mo Yan's literary universe.

Between Ecstasy and Truth: Greek Poetic Interpretation from Homer to Longinus

(uk) Halliwell

Chinese "poetry" in Chinese Characters

Zhao Yanxi

145K0

China is a country of poetry with a long tradition of poetry. The word "poetry" comes from what it refers to - the language art style with a certain rhythm and rhyme - poetry. The word "poetry" is used to refer to the style of "poetry", which is directly related to the understanding in the pre-Qin period that "poems" can "express aspirations". With the continuous development of poetry in my country, the objects and connotations referred to by the word "poetry" are constantly enriched. Initially, "poetry" was only used to refer to the Book of Songs, but later it gradually included Sao style poetry, Yuefu style, and non-musical five-character, seven-character, and miscellaneous styles. Ci poems from the Tang and Song dynasties and Sanqu from the Jin and Yuan dynasties were once excluded from "poetry", but later they were also included in "poetry" due to their refined style. The scope of the Chinese character "poetry" is getting larger and larger, just like a trickling stream. As the tributaries continue to merge, the river becomes wider and louder, and finally develops into a rolling giant stream. Poems use an open embrace to tell old stories and incorporate new ones. The style of poetry is always changing and always new, but poetic thoughts and sentiments have lasted for thousands of years, continuing to nourish the hearts of generations of Chinese people.

Read "tao Te Ching in Silk Script" with One Book

Compiled By Tao Zhi

16K0

This book is based on the Tao Te Ching, a silk scroll unearthed from the Mawangdui Han Tomb in Changsha in 1973, and reveals how this precious manuscript over 2,000 years ago subverted traditional understanding and showed the most primitive aspects of Laozi's thoughts. Different from the Wang Bi version and the He Shang Gong version that were passed down in later generations, the silk book has a unique structure with "De Jing" in front and "Dao Jing" in the back, which highlights the emphasis of Huang-Lao thought on realistic governance in the Han Dynasty. Its simple words such as "Feihengdaoye" are closer to the dynamic balance of the universe than the handed down version "Feihengdao". The book provides an in-depth analysis of the original philosophy of "Tao follows nature", the political wisdom of "governing by inaction", and the dialectical thinking of "the weak prevails over the strong". Through hundreds of textual differences between the silk script and the handed down version, it restores Laozi's profound criticism of power boundaries, desire restraint, and social alienation. From the ruler's self-cultivation principle of "little selfishness and few desires" to the ideal social picture of "a small country with few people", this ancient wisdom on silk spans time and space, providing modern people with the ideological resources to return to nature in response to ecological crisis, power expansion and spiritual anxiety, completing a double enlightenment from cultural relic archeology to life awakening.

The King and His Ministers in the Depths of History

Huang Pumin

196K0

This book contains a total of forty-six articles by Mr. Huang Pumin interpreting historical figures. Some of the articles have been published in major newspapers and magazines at different times, and some are new works by the author. Each historical figure in the collection is a separate article. When compiled, the articles are divided into six sections according to the theme: the wisdom of sages, the wisdom of national scholars, the many faces of kings and tyrants, the mirror of history, the separation of talents and the fate of heroes. It includes well-known historical figures, such as sages such as Laozi and Confucius, scholars such as Han Xin and Zhuge Liang, emperors such as the Spring and Autumn Overlords and Mingjuns, civil servants such as Deng Yu and Yang Hu, and generals such as Yue Fei and Ge Shuhan. In interpreting historical figures, the author not only starts from the aspects that are well-known to people, but also pays special attention to revealing other aspects of historical figures that are not noticed by people. For example, when discussing Dong Zhongshu, a great Confucian of the Han Dynasty, the author does not focus on Dong Zhongshu's contribution to establishing the orthodox status of Confucianism. Instead, he focuses on the "unity of man and nature" proposed by him, which was intended to limit the power of the monarch under the false theocratic power. In a feudal society, this was purely whimsical. When talking about Yue Fei's death, in addition to mentioning the reasons for the political struggle of "main war" and "maintaining peace", it also pointed out that Yue Fei's character of impartial deliberation and speaking out for justice; the fact that he had a large number of troops and was powerful in the world, and was suspected by Emperor Gaozong of being "disloyal"; the talent-stifling mechanism of the monarchy's centralized autocratic politics... These were all "accomplices" that led to Yue Fei's unjust death. The author uses popular and vivid language to give modern interpretations of various classic figures, summarizes their successes and failures, reveals their inspirations, and provides a reference material and approach for all today's readers who are interested in history and have a complex with heroes. By reading this book, more people can be inspired to pay attention to the evolution of history and the fate of those influential figures in history, and then understand and recognize historical figures from different angles and positions.

Compiled By Su Bai

This book takes Victor Hugo's epic masterpiece "Les Misérables" as the core, and shows the suffering and struggle of the people at the bottom of French society in the 19th century through the redemption of the convict Jean Valjean. From the tragic beginning when he was sentenced to nineteen years in prison for stealing a piece of bread, to the turning point when Bishop Miriam lit his soul with a silver candlestick, Jean Valjean assumed the alias of Mayor Madeleine and did good deeds to help the world, but was always pursued by the iron-faced police officer Javert. The intertwining of the two lines of fate reveals the eternal conflict between law and human nature. The book not only depicts the tragedies of women such as Fantine who is forced to fall, Cosette who suffers abuse, but also depicts the greed and sin of the Thenardiers and the ideal passion of Enjolras, a young man on the barricade, forming a social panorama in which good and evil are intertwined. Hugo used an encyclopedic style to integrate historical events and philosophical thinking into the narrative. Through shocking scenes such as sewer rescue and bloody battles on barricades, he explored the ultimate propositions of poverty, oppression and redemption. This humanitarian Bible ultimately tells us: Only forgiveness and love can illuminate the darkness of the "miserable world" and allow the humblest soul to shine with the brilliance of divinity.

A New Year's Eve dinner, a live broadcast, and a complete break. Lin Shiting's family used to be the most prosperous contractor household in the village, but now they are so poor that they can't survive for years. It's not that they didn't make any money, but her father "borrowed" all the money. He has a soft ear and a good face. He will not refuse money from relatives. If someone borrows one hundred, he will give one thousand without even asking for an IOU. Just two years ago, we spent all the money we earned in the year, and the family successfully "returned to before liberation." On New Year's Eve, her uncle made a phone call and invited them to a New Year's Eve dinner - it was said to be a reunion, but in reality it was to eat leftovers, and encouraged her father to pay for the meal. Lin Shiting put on the shabbiest clothes for the banquet, and watched her relatives take turns crying and selling out: her aunt wanted money for her son to "take the postgraduate entrance examination in World War II" (80 points in World War I), her uncle knelt down and cried that his daughter was "seriously ill" (actually using her money to travel to the island), and her aunt fanned the flames... And her father beat his chest again and again to pay for it. Unable to endure it, she made a bold decision-- Live broadcast of debt collection. Bank card transactions, WeChat chat records, online celebrity lawyer connections... The evidence was thrown out one by one, and the true colors of the relatives were revealed: the uncle tore up the IOU on the spot, the uncle was betrayed by his own daughter after his misfortune, and the cousin cursed and the live broadcast room was blocked. Just when they thought they were sure to win-- Outside the hotel door, dozens of strangers holding cellphones crowded in the darkness. "Sister Ting, we will support you!"
