The main points of the classic truisms

Pick one for yourself! Recently, I finished reading Mr. Zhu Ziqing's book "Classic Talks", which mainly introduces and explains some basic knowledge of traditional Chinese culture. The book's preface also says that this book is a book to learn traditional culture, can also be called "national education primer". Since it can be called "an introduction to Chinese culture", its weight is self-evident. The book is also a good guide for people from all walks of life who want to read history.

Mr. Zhu's book covers the traditional "Four Books, Five Classics" and "Thirteen Classics". It includes some of the most widely circulated and classic works of the four sections of the classics, namely, the classics of history, history, the classics, and the collected works. In Mr. Zhu's book, the bibliography of the order is: Shuowen Jiezi, Zhou Yi, Shangshu, Poetry, three rituals, the Spring and Autumn three biographies, the four books, the warring states policy, the history of the Han book, the sons, rhetoric, poetry, the first, the first text. In the preface of the book, it is said that "the articles are arranged according to the traditional order of the classics, history, and the collection of books, and according to the tradition of the book has been placed in the forefront of the "elementary school"." Therefore, such a more gradual order allows the reader to better understand the purpose of the book. Mr. Zhu also said that in order to read and understand these books, especially the sutras, histories, sons, and collections, one must first start by understanding the meaning of the characters, so his choice to put the Shuowen Jiezi in the first place is really well-intentioned.

Throughout the text, Mr. Zhu not only explains each of the works in a concise manner, but also adds some of his own insights into the elaboration of certain works. For example, in the fifth of the Rites, Mr. Zhu said, "The belief that all things are born is a very ancient one, but the most common is still the belief of the ancestors, and up to our time, this belief is still very powerful, but most of them can be said to be customs, and some of these customs can also be said to be the art of living." In the Shangshu, Mr. Zhu also did his own examination on the authenticity of the Shangshu over the past thousands of years, and determined that Fusheng's Shangshu is the most original and authentic text, but even so, Mr. Zhu suggested that we should read these 29 articles separately, because there are some articles in the middle of them which were written by people who were entrusted with the antiquity during the Warring States period. Therefore, such a rigorous attitude can also provide a more objective and dialectical channel for those who have just come into contact with these writings, or are about to come into contact with them, to understand and recognize these writings.

While Mr. Zhu's book is called "Classics in General", in my opinion, it is not only "Classics in General", but also "Classics in Guided Reading". In my opinion, however, this book is not only a "classic talk" in the pure sense, but also contains the deeper meaning of "classic guide". As we all know, in the internationalization of the degree of penetration into the life of everyone, our life is also filled with many new cultures, so that the younger generation of our Chinese culture is less and less attention, in the face of the increasing number of "Po Lai" culture, there are very few families to give their children to accept the "traditional education "So we are able to provide our children with a traditional education in this way. So we can do an interpretation and endorsement for our ancient culture in this way, and to a certain extent, we can also make our Chinese culture to be better circulated. After all, our Chinese culture or need the next generation to pass

Recently read Mr. Zhu Ziqing's "classic often talk" book, since Mr. Zhu Ziqing died 62 years ago, read the book, the book between the lines are flashed out of his chewing rice feeding people tireless spirit, so that the people to catch up with the people, and for its short life and regret. It opens the way for young people to interpret the classics of Chinese culture. The language is concise and clear, and it grasps the essence of the book, making it a rare and fine introduction. Recently, I read the book "Classics" written by Mr. Zhu Ziqing. Mr. Zhu has left us for 62 years, and as a modern writer in China, he is forever in my heart as well as his excellent prose works such as "Backstory" and "Moonlight in the Lotus Pond". When I read this book, I feel that his tireless spirit of chewing rice and feeding people shines through every word in the book, which makes people miss him and regret his life of only 50 years old. In the preface of the book, the author explains what the classics are, which are the traditional cultural heritage of our country recorded in Chinese characters. He then explains what books are included in the classics, and that there are thirteen of these books***. The authors of these thirteen kinds of books, the reasons for their creation, the contents of the book, and the social benefits produced by the book are introduced one by one, and the process of this kind of narrative and discussion constitutes the content of the book. This book can be regarded as both a collection of essays and a textbook, because Mr. Zhu said in the preface of the book that classical training is one of the necessary items in post-secondary education. His claim was recognized by the Ministry of Education at the time and endorsed by many in the educational community. If one compares a person exposed to the classics to a tourist, then Mr. Zhu is very much like a guide. When tourists want to visit a cavern, he first gives a talk outside the cavern, so that the travelers will have a clear idea in their mind and will not feel confused when they enter the cavern. He can be a really good guide, they feel familiar with the inside, know the cause and evolution of the cavern, according to the real world, would never say that here is the two dragons playing with pearls; there are the eight immortals across the sea, is a high priest, a fairy molded, seeking the truth and not hunting for tourists naturally welcome such a guide. The thirteenth lesson Wen content slightly The following is an example of the first lesson of the Shuowen Jiezi briefly introduce the content of the text: According to legend, the Chinese writing is the Yellow Emperor's historian called Cangjie made. He was inspired by the traces of animal hooves and bird claws imprinted on the ground, and began to make characters. Cangjie leaked out the secrets of heaven, but taught people to be bad. So when he made the characters, "Heaven rained corn. Ghosts cry at night." When people had words, they would become resourceful and would fight to be those easy money merchants, and the number of people who worked hard to cultivate the land became fewer. The sky was afraid that people would not have enough to eat, so it rained down rice for them to save for emergencies. Ghosts were also afraid that these clever people would use words to control them, so they howled at night; words originally had the function of witchcraft. But this legend is in the end of the Warring States period, people at that time do not all believe; such as the "Yi" and the "Department of Rhetoric" only said that the text is "later sages" created. There were not just one "latter-day sage", but many. Words are constantly evolving, and it is impossible to say that they were created by a single person. Literacy is the first step in education. According to the Zhouli and the Baoshi, the children of the nobles entered elementary school at the age of eight, and the teacher taught them to read and write. Before the Qin Dynasty, the scripts were very complicated, and what the children of the nobles learned was only the official script. After Qin Shi Huang unified the script, the small seal script became the national script, and other scripts were gradually phased out, making it much easier to read and write. In order to unify the script, the First Emperor taught Li Si to write seven chapters of Cangjie, Zhao Gao to write six chapters of Ai Calendar, and Hu Mujing to write seven chapters of Bo Xue. However, the font was based on the common small seal script at that time, which was slightly different from the original seal script. At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the teacher combined these three chapters into one book, known as "Cangjie Chapters", the three character books of the Qin Dynasty were not transmitted. The Eastern Han Dynasty and the emperor, a Xu Shen, made a "Shuowen Jiezi". This was an epoch-making character book, which included all kinds of writing styles through the ages. He preserved the Small Seal Character and the Late Zhou Character, so that future generations could trace the origins of the characters. The study of the form, sound and meaning of characters used to be called elementary school, but now it is called philology. In the old days, learning was limited to the classics, so it is said that the study of learning must start from the elementary school, i.e., from philology. There are six regulations for the creation and use of characters, called the Six Books. The first is pictograms; the second refers to things; the third is huiyi; the fourth is morpho-sound; the fifth is transcription; and the sixth is pseudo-reference. Elaboration. The origin and development of the various styles of Chinese characters that have evolved since the Qin Dynasty, the Zhen (Zheng and Kai), Xing, Cursive, Clerical, and Seal scripts. From the content of this first lesson, it should be said that it is very rich. From the origin and development of writing. The composition of writing, the evolution of various fonts. The legends and stories are vividly told as if they were right in front of us. From this book of 77,000 words in the book to see the writer's knowledge of the profound, the writing of the rounded, really admirable. After reading this book, the idiom of "opening a book is beneficial" came true. I feel that I have benefited a lot: I have gained a deeper understanding of the cultural heritage left by our ancestors, and a clearer understanding of what the classics are, how they originated and developed, and their impact on society. Mr. Zhu may not have used the term "ancient for modern use" at that time, but his original intention of writing this book was to advocate the people to inherit the cultural heritage left by our ancestors and to improve the cultural quality of the people. Therefore, Mr. Zhu named this book "Classics in Frequent Discourse". Since it is in frequent discourse, it means that we should not forget these classics, that is to say, there is a use for studying these classics no matter when we learn them.

In the preface of the book, the author explains what the classics are, which are our traditional cultural heritage written down in Chinese characters. It then explains what books are included in the classics, and that there are thirteen of these books***. The authors of these thirteen kinds of books, the reasons for their creation, the contents of the book, and the social benefits produced by the book are introduced one by one, and the process of this kind of narrative and discussion constitutes the content of the book. This book can be regarded as both a collection of essays and a textbook, because Mr. Zhu said in the preface of the book that classical training is one of the necessary items in post-secondary education. His claim was recognized by the then Ministry of Education and endorsed by many in the educational community.

If one compares a person exposed to the classics to a tourist, then Mr. Zhu is much like a guide. When tourists want to visit a cavern, he first gives a talk outside the cavern, so that the travelers have a clear idea in their mind and don't feel confused when they enter the cavern. He can really be a good guide, they feel familiar with the inside, know the cause and evolution of the cavern, can speak according to the true intersection, would never say that here is the two dragons playing with pearls; there is the eight immortals across the sea, is a high priest, a fairy shaped, and not hunting for the truth of the tourists naturally welcome such a guide.
