800 words about reading historical records.

After reading the book Historical Records recently, China is a country with a long history and splendid ancient culture. In the long history, a large number of outstanding historians, thinkers and writers have emerged. Under different historical conditions, through his own pen and ink, he showed a dazzling picture for future generations. More than 2000 years ago, a scholar, after suffering great humiliation, endured humiliation and completed a great historical work with flesh and blood. In the next few thousand years, this masterpiece is like a bright pearl, a towering monument, standing in the long river of China literature and history, which is beyond the reach of future generations. This man is Sima Qian, and this historical work is Historical Records. Historical Records is the first of twenty-four histories, which records the history of more than two thousand years from Huangdi to Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty. In the excellent tradition of Chinese studies, only Historical Records is an unparalleled "encyclopedia". Mr. Lu Xun once commented on Historical Records as "a historian's swan song, leaving Sao without rhyme". Sima Qian's masterpiece is a profound summary of historical development. He published his unique views on life and society, and at the same time strongly criticized the contradictory reality. A very important reason for the success of such a book, which has both historical value and literary value in China, is that it has created a series of vivid and spiritual characters by literary means.

Historical Records initiated the history of China's biographical style and China's biographical literature. A series of historical figures written in biographies, biographies and biographies not only show the author's high generalization and superb knowledge of history, but also vividly show a broad picture of social life through the activities of many various figures. Therefore, for more than two thousand years, Historical Records is not only a model for historians to learn, but also a model for writers to learn. Lu Xun once commented on Historical Records as "a historian's swan song, leaving Sao without rhyme".

The greatest literary achievement of Historical Records is the vivid description of the characters with both form and spirit, which created a precedent for China's biographical literature. Its success lies in the use of literary means to create a series of flesh-and-blood and energetic characters. Among them, the characters recorded are varied and varied; The characters he portrayed are lifelike, lifelike. Sima Qian's artistic method of describing characters is mainly manifested in the following aspects: first, he puts characters on the historical stage and describes them in the environment of the times and life; The second is to write people in sharp and complicated conflict scenes; The third is to write people in typical details, aiming at revealing the spiritual world of the characters; Fourth, express the personality characteristics of the characters in personalized language; Fifth, use profile description to compare the character characteristics of the characters.

Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, once said: "With copper as a mirror, we can learn from history and know the rise and fall;" Take people as a mirror, you can know the gains and losses. "China has a long history of five thousand years. From the glory of Historical Records, we can see the rise and fall of dynasties and the development of the world.

Historical Records is a biographical history book written by Sima Qian, a historian of the Western Han Dynasty. It is the first biographical general history in the history of China, and is listed as the first of the "Twenty-four History", which records the history of more than 3,000 years from the legendary Huangdi era to the first year of founding ceremony, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Combining the History of the Later Han Dynasty, the History of the Later Han Dynasty and the History of the Three Kingdoms, the first four histories are integrated. It was praised by Lu Xun as "the historian's swan song, and Li Sao has no rhyme"; Liu Xiang and others think that this book is "good at narrative reasoning, arguing but not flashy, qualitative but not vulgar".

Its materials are quite extensive. At that time, hundreds of works such as Shiben, Guoyu, Ji Qin, Chu and Han Chunqiu, as well as national documents and archives, as well as materials obtained from field investigation, were all important sources for Sima Qian to write Historical Records. What is particularly commendable is that Sima Qian carefully analyzed and screened the collected materials, and eliminated some nonsense, such as not listing some Huang San who had no factual basis, taking the Five Emperors as the first discipline, or taking a skeptical attitude towards some unclear issues or recording various unnecessary statements. His vivid words also make people want to stop. For example, when Liu Bang heard about Han Xin's reaction after his death, he used the words "I am happy and pity" to show Liu Bang's complicated and contradictory feelings to the fullest. Due to its extensive materials and serious attitude in compiling history, Historical Records is informative and rich in content. There are heroes' desperate courage, emperors' lonely helplessness, avengers' desperate emptiness and saints' crying in the middle of the night. They were all engraved with noble names by Taishi Gong.

After understanding its content "heroic, profound, elegant and healthy", we can also pay attention to Tai Shigong's writing background. Tai Shigong completed Historical Records with superego. When he wrote historical records, he was suffering from unprecedented humiliation. "Don't insult your body first, then your body, then your color, then your words, then your body, then your clothes, then your wooden rope, then your hair, then your baby, then your gold, then your iron, then your skin, then your limbs, and finally your corruption!" Corruption is a great destruction to his body and mind. Under such double torture, he can vent his personal anger as much as possible, but he finally surpassed life and death, himself and the times. He only extracted the most dazzling rubble from the historical rubble to build the national monument.

The long river of history flows quietly, warm and solemn, among which thousands of sparkling quicksand are waiting for us to wipe it carefully and understand its light. Read the classics first, then read the history, so it is not absurd to discuss the sages; If you read history and repeat it, then reading is more than just chapters and sentences. Reading history, knowing history, learning wisdom from wonderful stories, knowing yourself and the world, at the same time, inheriting the original culture of China.

Chapter 3: Reading 800 words of Historical Records.

In China, an ancient civilization with a vast territory, rich natural resources and outstanding people, Chinese culture has a long history and is profound, and the sages left us a huge spiritual wealth-ancient books and records of China. Among them, among the stars in the sky, Historical Records is the brightest and brightest one. Reading the Historical Records carefully, people can feel that 3000 years ago, a group of heroes rose, competing with each other, and emperors dominated.

Historical Records was written by Sima Qian, a historian and writer in the Western Han Dynasty. It records the history of more than 3,000 years from the time of the Yellow Emperor in the ancient legend of China to the first year of founding ceremony, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The book includes 12 biographies, 30 families, 70 biographies, 10 tables, 8 books, 130 articles and more than 520,000 words. Sima Qian completed history with his knowledge of "studying the changes between heaven and man, connecting ancient and modern times and becoming a family"

Historical Records is profound in thought, magnificent in momentum and bold in brushwork, which has had a far-reaching impact on the development of historiography and literature in later generations, and its pioneering biographical general history method has pioneered the "official history" in previous dynasties. Its rich artistic value has been inherited and developed by ancient novels, plays, biographies, literature and essays. From Lu Xun's high evaluation of "the swan song of history, Li Sao has no rhyme", we can see its influence on later generations

Reading Historical Records let me know about Xiang Yu who committed suicide in Wujiang River. At the time of suffering, Chen Sheng and attacked Qin; At a critical juncture, Lin Xiangru is both wise and brave; Zhong Er, who was exiled, finally ascended the throne ... The historical situation and all kinds of situations in the world shocked my soul again and again, among which the story of Gou Jian's hard struggle was the most thought-provoking.

In 494 BC, the State of Wu attacked the State of Yue, and the army of the State of Yue was almost completely annihilated. Gou Jian had no choice but to make peace according to the request of the King of Wu. Gou Jian had to serve hard labor in the state of Wu. In three years, he endured humiliation and devoted himself to restoring the country. After returning home, he worked hard and made great efforts to share joys and sorrows with the people. Finally, "Who will help them? There are unexpected events in the sky, and 3,000 Yue families will swallow Wu!" "

The story of Gou Jian's death by revenge has been handed down from generation to generation, and it has also given us "teenagers who don't know the taste of sorrow" more thoughts: to live in today's competitive tide, we should be prepared for danger in times of peace, make every effort to govern, survive in survival, think in death and struggle hard; If he has no sense of hardship, no long-term vision, fears difficulties and covets ease, then he will be eliminated by this society, and the result will only be a dead end like the prince of Wu!

Although difficulties and challenges often give people setbacks, they can inspire people to forge ahead and give them strength. Although comfort and conservatism can temporarily protect themselves, they can make people degenerate and be eliminated. Therefore, when encountering setbacks, be a petrel fighting against the storm! Only in this way can we see the sunny day after the rain!

Chapter four: About reading 800 words of historical records.

This summer vacation, I read a book called Historical Records.

Historical Records is the work of Sima Qian, the "Shi Sheng" in the period of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty. It records the political, economic, cultural and military history of China for 3,000 years from the beginning of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and is the first of the "Twenty-four History".

I admire Sima Qian's innovative way of writing history books. "Twenty-four History" mostly adopts chronological style. History is written in chronological order, while Historical Records is mainly biographical, and absorbs the advantages of chronicles and other genres, creating a new genre of biographical history books. The history recorded in other historical books is very short, and even Zi Tongzhi Jian only records the history of more than 1000 years from the Warring States to the Five Dynasties and Ten Countries. Historical Records, which records the history of China for more than 3,000 years, is the oldest historical book in the "Twenty-four History".

I admire Sima Qian's indomitable spirit of not violating the truth. Although Sima Qian was a court historian, he did not reflect the will of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in Historical Records. Sima Qian's historical records are straightforward, fair and reliable, and he doesn't speak well or hide bad things. In some ways, dare to criticize the court, which is not allowed by feudal rulers. In Historical Records, he bluntly recorded the absurd behavior of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty who was superstitious about immortals and tried his best to pray for elixir, which annoyed Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty. At this time, Li Ling's defeat and surrender happened. Li Ling attacked the Huns and was captured. Sima Qian said a few words of explanation for Li Ling, which angered Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and put him in prison for castration. Castration not only cruelly destroys human body and spirit, but also greatly insults personality. Sima Qian certainly didn't want to endure such punishment. He even thought of suicide in grief. But then he thought that people always die, but "death is heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather", and the meaning of death is different. He thinks it's worthless to lose a hair on the cow if he commits suicide like this. He resolutely chose castration. He has only one belief, that is, he must live and finish Historical Records. It was because he didn't finish Historical Records that he endured humiliation and finally finished Historical Records.

Among the historical records, I am most interested in The Biography of Qin Shihuang. I think Qin Shihuang's contribution is to unify China, unified writing and currency, and laid the foundation for the prosperity of Chinese civilization. But he is also cruel. He burned books to bury Confucianism, deposed hundreds of people, built imperial tombs and buried tens of thousands of people alive. He was a tyrannical tyrant, so the Qin Dynasty died in only fifteen years.

Historical Records is a historical book written by Sima Qian under great shame. Let me understand a lot of principles of governing the country. Governing the country should not be too hard, but it should not be lazy or loose. I want to read more good books, learn more knowledge and create a prosperous and powerful new era.
