Two detailed stories of Wen Yiduo

When Mr. Wen Yiduo was giving a class to a student, he went to the podium and first wrote an arithmetic problem on the blackboard: 2+5 =? The students are confused. However, Teacher Wen insisted on asking: 2+5 =? The students then replied, "It is equal to ..."

Mr. Wen said: "Yes, in the field of mathematics, 2+5 = 7, which is natural and indisputable. However, in the field of art, 2+5 = 10000 is also possible. "

Having said that, he took out a Chinese painting "Wan Li Pentium" for the students to enjoy. I saw two running horses conspicuously drawn on the screen, and five horses of different sizes were drawn behind the two running horses. There are many fuzzy black spots behind these five horses.

Mr. Wang pointed to the painting and said, "judging from the image of the whole painting, there are only seven horses before and after." However, anyone who has seen this painting will feel that there are thousands of Ma Benteng here. Isn't this 2+5 = 10000? "

The students suddenly realized. It turns out that Mr. Wen vividly explained with this simple formula that the capacity of literary and artistic works cannot be calculated like a mathematical formula. The preservation of literary and artistic works is expensive, which should give people a broad imagination space.

Although there are only seven horses in the above picture, people feel the warm scene of Ma Benteng through artistic techniques, which is the role of imagination.

Second, the second story:

Mr. Wen Yiduo's teaching method is also unique, which is a must.

According to Mr. Ma Xueliang, who went with Mr. Wen Yiduo to collect folk songs in minority areas, he recalled: "At that time, after recording every day, he went back to the campsite and spread straw on the ground. Mr. Wen Yiduo always asks me to organize documents with him.

Before going to bed, we light candles and clean up. He always puts up a foot and picks the blisters on it. After picking it, he put the picked soles in a small bag. "?

The skin off the blisters can be described as unsightly, and most people avoid it, but why does Mr. Wen regard it as a treasure?

Later, Mr. Ma Xueliang didn't know what was the use of Mr. Wen Yiduo's foot skin: he collected a certain amount and gave it to his children in order to remind them of Mr. Wen Yiduo's suffering.

As a father, Mr. Wen Yiduo did not leave a rich family fortune to his children. However, a bag full of feet and father's love is an inexhaustible spiritual wealth for future generations.

Third, take part in the revolution

1July, 937, when the Anti-Japanese War broke out, Wen Yiduo moved to Kunming with his school and became a professor of The National SouthWest Associated University after the merger of Peking University, Tsinghua and Nankai. Facing the harsh reality, he resolutely abandoned the illusion of cultural salvation and actively participated in the anti-Japanese struggle and the struggle of democratic dictatorship.

1943 began to get help from Kunming underground party and NLD. The Party sent him Mao Zedong's "On New Democracy" and other works through different channels. He began to realize that to save China, we must fundamentally overthrow the rule of imperialism and feudal warlords.

After the publication of The Destiny of China, Chiang Kai-shek said that the May 4th Movement impressed him so deeply that it was unacceptable for The Destiny of China to declare war on the May 4th Movement in public.

1944 He joined the China Democratic League, and later became the executive committee member of NLD Central Committee, the propaganda committee member of NLD Yunnan Branch and the president of Democracy Weekly, and became an active democracy fighter.

1945 12 1 day, the Kuomintang authorities suppressed the patriotic movement of Kunming students. Wen Yiduo personally wrote a eulogy for the martyrs who died: "People are not afraid of death, why not?"

At the funeral, he walked at the front of the parade on crutches, and wrote down the story of the "December 21 Movement", exposing the truth of the tragedy and calling on "the soldiers who did not die, stepped on the blood of four martyrs" to continue fighting.

On June 29th, 1946, NLD Yunnan Branch held a reception for people from all walks of life. At the meeting, he announced that NLD was determined to respond to China's call and adhere to the position of "democratic reunification and peaceful nation-building", and called on "friends from all walks of life to join hands closely, and * * * will stick to the end to oppose civil war and strive for democracy!"

Fourth, shooting to death.

1946, 1 1, Li Gongpu, a famous social educator and head of NLD, one of the seven gentlemen of the National Salvation Association, was assassinated by Kuomintang agents in Kunming. Wen Yiduo immediately electrified the whole country and accused the reactionaries of their crimes.

He wrote an inscription for the "Special Issue on the Death of Mr. Li Gongpu" in the Student Newspaper: "Reactionaries! You can see one fall, and you can see thousands! " ?

1946 On July 5th, at Li Gongpu's memorial service held in Yunnan University, for safety reasons, the host did not arrange for Wen Yiduo to speak.

But fearless, angry and impassioned, he delivered a "final speech", denouncing the Kuomintang spies and swearing with fists: "We have this confidence: the power of the people will surely win and the truth will always exist."

"We are not afraid of death, we have the spirit of sacrifice, and we are always ready to step out of the door like Mr. Li, and the back foot is not ready to step into the door!"

In the afternoon, he presided over the press conference of Democracy Weekly to further expose the truth of the assassination. After the meeting, Wen Yiduo was ambushed by Kuomintang agents on his way home and killed by more than a dozen bullets.

Major achievements:

When creating metrical style, Wen Yiduo put forward a specific proposition, namely, three beauties: the power of poetry includes not only the beauty of music and painting, but also the beauty of architecture.

The beauty of music refers to the beauty of hearing in poetry, including the beauty of rhythm, flatness, stress, rhyme and pause. It requires harmony, in line with the poet's mood, fluency without awkwardness-this does not include the use of sound for special effects.

The beauty of painting means that the vocabulary of poetry should try its best to express colors and colorful pictures.

Architectural beauty is put forward by the pointer to the free body, which means that every verse should be symmetrical and every line should be of equal length-this equal length does not mean that the number of words is exactly equal, but that the number of scales should be the same, so that metrical poems can have a symmetrical appearance.
