Why does Yi Zhongtian, who has been talking about history, say that he hates Chinese studies? Isn't that contradictory?

There is no contradiction. He just hates the word "Chinese studies". He believes that traditional culture and Chinese studies are two completely different concepts, and Chinese studies are put forward relative to western learning. There are many traditional cultures in Chinese studies, so it's not that he doesn't like traditional culture, but that he hates the word Chinese studies.

Traditional culture has both essence and dross. The culture left by China for 5,000 years is profound and profound, so it is impossible to sort out the content. Moreover, some cultures can't be generalized, which may be both the essence and the dross. For example, the novel Water Margin is about brave people. Is loyalty necessarily desirable? In the novel, Liangshan heroes didn't kill people for loyalty. Later, after Song Jiang surrendered, he died without drinking poisoned wine with Song Jiang. So traditional culture can't be sorted out at once.

In addition, vernacular Chinese has replaced classical Chinese, and now Mandarin has gradually replaced local dialects, so this is the development of traditional culture and the part where we use the essence. Therefore, there are certain considerations for Yi Zhongtian not to go to Lecture Room. He thinks that what he said is not necessarily practical. Now the times are open, and all kinds of new media and self-media are booming. People's pursuit has also undergone tremendous changes.

Those people are still concerned about the lecture room, so whether there is a lecture room or not does not affect the inheritance of traditional culture. Lecture Room can't finish talking about traditional culture, because our culture has a long history and is profound. Therefore, the history that Yi Zhongtian has been talking about is the traditional culture of our country, which is not contradictory to his aversion to Chinese studies.
