Please! ! On the Opening Report of Qu Yuan's Spiritual Quality from Li Sao

On the classification of Qu Yuan's personality and artistic spirit from Li Sao: Paper assignment: (| Label: Try to see Qu Yuan's personality and artistic spirit from Li Sao.

Qu Yuan, a well-known name. There is also the immortal work Li Sao written by Qu Yuan. Miluo swallowed and buried Qu Yuan, which became Qu Yuan's final destination, but Miluo did not swallow Qu Yuan's Li Sao, Qu Yuan's personality and artistic spirit conveyed through Li Sao, and many other things, which are the different values of material wealth and spiritual wealth.

Li Sao is the most outstanding of all Qu Yuan's works, and it has always existed and spread as a representative work of Qu Yuan. But think about it carefully, why does Li Sao enjoy this status instead of nine articles or nine chapters? In fact, in the final analysis, it is because of the content of Li Sao, which explains all the personality and spirit of Qu Yuan in a richer and more comprehensive way, which is beyond the reach of other works.

When talking about Qu Yuan's personality and his artistic spirit, we must first understand: What is personality? What is artistic spirit?

Look at personality first. Psychological personality (also called personality) refers to the stable psychological characteristics that distinguish a person from others, including a person's moral character, ability, personality, values, needs, interests and so on. This is a psychological explanation. In social life, personality is the unity of a person's position and role in society, and the sum of his dignity, reputation and value. In socialist countries, every citizen has equal personality and his personal dignity is protected by law. At the same time, we often use personality to refer to moral quality, such as "low personality" and "noble personality". These are the definitions of personality in modern society, so in Qu Yuan's era, although psychology has not been promoted to the status of a discipline, people's understanding of it can also be described as "a little knowledge", but the words about psychological description have always existed, so we can refer to the understanding of personality in modern psychology when we talk about Qu Yuan's personality and its content here. Judging from the era of Qu Yuan's life, it is difficult to unify the position and role of an individual in society, so his personality in social life is unreasonable. However, psychology is only a reference after all, and the interpretation of moral quality has a long history. So we talk about Qu Yuan's personality here, mainly from the perspective of moral quality, of course, from an interdisciplinary perspective, and should also include the understanding of personality in the sense of modern psychology.

Look at the artistic spirit again. Art is a form, but it is not an empty shell, but a meaningful form, that is to say, form contains meaning, as Mr. Li Zehou said, it is a "meaningful form". Art is abstract, so the form of art must be full of images. It comes from people's minds and is the soul of everything. It is precisely because people have a mind, and it is precisely because people's minds can create forms, so creating forms is "people's minds legislate for nature." Then the artistic spirit comes from people's attitudes and views on art forms. People in China tend to be practical, so in the view of saints in China, "art" is a kind of therapy. However, the connotation of artistic spirit is the same, and they are all attitudes and views on artistic forms, but the content of this artistic form is different.

Knowing the basic connotation of personality and artistic spirit, we can further understand Qu Yuan's personality and artistic spirit.

According to the understanding of psychology and morality, we should start with the basic aspects of morality, ability, personality, values, needs and interests.

When we talk about Qu Yuan, the first thing we see is that he is rated as a "great patriotic poet". Indeed, Qu Yuan is patriotic. Between the lines of Li Sao, Qu Yuan's thought of "beautiful politics" is revealed, that is, "cultivating talents and empowering them, not following the ink", and dropping talents in an eclectic way. This is a beautiful politics, which is incompatible with the decadent concept of aristocratic rule, so it is inevitable to encounter many setbacks. Therefore, some people say that Li Sao is a medium for Qu Yuan to vent his dissatisfaction and grievances. In fact, these angry or complaining words are just words. The real meaning should be like Lu Xun's evaluation of the people of China in the old society, which is a regret of "hating iron and not producing steel". Regret and complaint are absolutely different attitudes and views. Qu Yuan's patriotic feelings determined that he could not hold a grudge against anything. "Although he died nine times, he didn't regret it." Although he was repeatedly vilified and even exiled, he always thought about the rise and fall of the motherland and the sufferings of the people. He hoped that the king of Chu would suddenly repent, work hard and be the master of ZTE. He knows that loyalty to honesty and frankness will bring disaster, but he always "endures". He knew that he faced many dangers, and he could go to other countries to find a way out in the era of "using Chu materials", but he refused to leave Chu and finally handed himself over to Miluo River. It shows his infinite loyalty to the motherland and his personality and will to win glory with the sun and the moon. All this, like faith, is not so easily shaken.

Our evaluation of Qu Yuan is not only a poet, but also a politician. Indeed, Qu Yuan is the most statesmanlike person, and we absolutely have every reason to show his political foresight: we realize that Chu has both the potential to compete for the world and the danger of being annexed by Qin. Such a sight was not foreseen by those treacherous little people. We are sure that those little people didn't foresee it, because if they did, they would definitely accept the suggestion directly. When Qu Yuan foresaw this historic ending, the situation was still bright, and those little people had no choice to betray the country under irreversible circumstances. The reason why we call him a villain does not mean that he must be a traitor. No one is born a traitor. The deeper reason is that they are petty, have no tolerance for others and are vegetarian. However, a visionary politician is not necessarily a person with political talent. Why can Ji Xiaolan live forever in a world of whores with corrupt officials like Xiao Shenyang and his network of contacts, and exert his political talents to protect the people and rule the world? A politician with real political talent should be a man with both foresight and means, and may lose his personality and principles, but there is no doubt that history has proved that a politician without means cannot last long, which means that his political ambition has not been fully realized and adulterers and prostitutes are rampant. What about politicians with means? When he opposed it, he suppressed the adulterer and showed foresight. Perhaps this vision is gradually realized, but it can be accumulated over time. This is the golden mean, but it is definitely the best way to weigh the pros and cons. It can be seen that Qu Yuan's life ended in Miluo, which shows his lack of political ability in a certain sense.

Qu Yuan is a man of character. He has a clear understanding of his goals and needs. Under the guidance of patriotic values, adhere to your own personality, persist in being a "vanilla", give up everything, and don't go along with traitors. As the saying goes, "bend one's heart and restrain one's ambition, endure especially and pollute", and "though he died nine times, he still won't change". This noble quality is hard to find, and this spirit of persistence is hard to find. However, when reading Qu Yuan's Li Sao, there is still a feeling that Qu Yuan's character is not particularly profound, but narcissism, which runs through countless herbs before and after and is the medium that Qu Yuan uses to compare himself. It's been many years since Qu Yuan's time, so we can't verify it ourselves. But the reputation of vanilla has been passed down to this day, and the vanilla-like character is a perfect character. Is Qu Yuan suspected of narcissism by repeatedly comparing himself to vanilla? But it doesn't matter, no one is perfect. Such a small defect can't erase Qu Zi's good impression in the eyes of Chinese children for thousands of years.

As for Qu Yuan's artistic spirit, let's take a look at Zhuangzi's artistic spirit first. Zhuangzi's ideal spiritual realm is true, in fact, it is a peaceful and quiet psychological environment. In Zhuangzi's thought, the limit of life and death, the encirclement of time and fate, and the feelings of sadness and joy, which constitute the dilemma of life, are all objective existence in human life. It should be said that it is a true reflection and rational attitude to get rid of the mental troubles and form a quiet psychological environment. We say that China people are pragmatic, and Zhuangzi is an ideal living environment, but we know that Zhuangzi lived in a time when peace and prosperity were out of reach. Then, why does Zhuangzi still live happily when the ideal living environment cannot be satisfied? At that time, because the living environment here has expanded, it not only refers to the environment around us that involves our survival, but also includes our psychological environment. Similar to the situation that reality can't satisfy us, we choose spiritual self-comfort and satisfaction, but this is not just self-comfort and satisfaction in a simple sense, but a kind of inner peace and a state of enlightenment. Qu Yuan didn't choose to live a happy life in troubled times like Zhuangzi, because he wanted peace in the country and people lived and worked in peace. Of course, this "desire" is not personal, but what we advocate and even what we expect. But it was this desire that killed Qu Yuan in Miluo, while Zhuangzi lived a long life. Every one of us yearns for the ideal life realm brought by Zhuangzi's desire for nothing, but it is said to be the ideal life realm because it is really too difficult to achieve. Unless everyone in society becomes "Zhuangzi", society will always be decorated with "ideals". Moreover, further, we are all social people, and our life, whether it is life or not, is related to society. Therefore, if I have to choose between Qu Yuan's artistic spirit and Zhuangzi's artistic spirit, I will not hesitate to choose Qu Yuan's artistic spirit: a desire to fight for the social cause of the masses, and I am willing to pay everything for it.

There are perfectionists, debaters and dissimilators in the evaluation of Qu Yuan. In short, they are all varied and indispensable. The correct one should be eclecticism, the doctrine of the mean is not extreme, but it is indeed the most perfect understanding and interpretation.
