Female images in ancient literature
The "Nuwa family" has the merits of "mending the sky" and "creating human beings" and is the great mother of the Chinese nation. According to historical records, Shangshu, Lielie and Huai
Historical records such as "Nanzi" record that Nu Wa is not only an artistic image in myths and legends, but also
He is also a real historical figure. She is the only great female ancestor in the history of the Chinese nation, and a China native who accounts for14 of the world population.
The great mother of the clan. The era of the formation and appearance of the Nuwa family is not only far before the two male ancestors of the Chinese nation-Yan Di and Huangdi, but also
Her achievements also far exceeded those of Emperor Yan and the Yellow Emperor: she suffered huge natural disasters and social disasters under very bad natural conditions in ancient times.
In the face of danger, we stepped forward, persevered and struggled tenaciously, creating human society and human civilization. Her behavior and career,
It is a great source of strength that inspires generations of Chinese sons and daughters to strive for self-improvement and progress forever. A, nuwa is the great mother of the Chinese nation, according to the huai
"Nanzi Ming Lan" records: the ancient four poles were abolished, and Kyushu was cracked; The sky is different and the land is incomplete; Fire does not go out, water is inexhaustible;
Wild animals eat people, while birds prey on the old and the weak. So nuwa refined five-color stones to make up the sky, and the broken claws were enough to set up four poles, killing the black dragon and helping Jizhou, and accumulating reed ash to stop the lewd water.
Natural supplement, four poles are positive, dirty water is dry, Jizhou is flat, ground worms are dead, and people's livelihood is improved. This passage records an important event that happened on the ancient earth.
Terrible conditions of geological changes. At that time, there were serious earthquakes, floods and great changes in the world. In this earth disaster,
In the unprecedented catastrophe caused, Nu Wa holds the great heart of saving the world and everything, and' refining five-color stones to make up the sky, breaking Ao Bai is enough to set up four poles and kill the black dragon.
Jizhou, accumulate reed ash to stop lewd water. "After her tenacious struggle and unremitting efforts, everything in the East has been reborn. Remember from above?
According to the situation reflected in the book, Nu Wa, the creator of ancient myths and legends in China, was a great woman who bravely fought against natural disasters in ancient times. At the same time, Nu Wa is also a fertility.
The great mother of the Chinese nation. According to the Records of Independence, at the beginning of the universe, there was no one in the world, only two brothers and sisters, Nvwa 、 Fuxi. They adopted the method of "getting people out of the earth", with the aim of making the earth humans who perished through robbery multiply as soon as possible, and then
Build human beings. According to "Seeing the Worldliness", heaven and earth opened, and there was no one left. Nu Wa's loess is a human being, and the sitting audience is at a loss, so she holds the rope in the mud and lifts it as a human being. Gufugui
Who, loess people also; Poor people and ordinary people are also human beings. Because Nu Wa was doing this work on the Loess Plateau in China, she was killed.
But loess is human, which is why the Chinese nation is a "yellow race". According to legend, Fuxi and Nuwa were on Kunlun Mountain at that time. In order to breed human beings on earth.
Yan, the two had the idea of getting married, but they were ashamed to say it. So each of them made a bunch of fireworks and read a spell: if God wants them to be husband and wife,
Then two fireworks are combined into one. If not, let the smoke dissipate. As soon as the words were finished, the two cigarettes merged into one. So, Nu Wa and Fuxi.
Xi and his wife got married according to God's will. Soon, Nu Wa became pregnant and gave birth, but she was born because of "consanguineous marriage".
It turned out to be a giant meat cell. Fuxi smashed the meat cells with stones in a rage. But strangely, these pieces of meat change one by one.
Only in this case can human beings be reborn. Therefore, Nu Wa is not only the god of creation, but also the ancient marriage system in China.
The founder of. Therefore, Nu Wa's family is revered as Nu Wa's Empress, and is enshrined in Niangniang temples all over the country, specializing in the great event of human bearing children.
In addition, the Nuwa family was also the initiator, which laid the foundation for the establishment of the ancient ritual and music system in China.
(2) The worship of women's sacred ability in ancient society influenced the belief psychology of later generations, which existed in China six or seven thousand years ago.
Ancient residents are experiencing a society in which women are supreme. In the struggle to adapt to and transform nature, primitive people created a number of creations with strange imagination.
Goddess, the belief in them contains the affirmation and worship of primitive people for the important role of women. Nu Wa is one of many creation goddesses.
In the eyes of ancestors, Nu Wa is omnipotent, and her achievements are greatly respected by future generations, and she is regarded as the highest goddess and the greatest achievement of Nu Wa.
It is the loess that gets ahead, and the five-color stone makes up the sky. The most direct manifestation of the folk influence of Nuwa myth is the formation and spread of Tianchuan Festival. (early) morning
There are records about Tianchuan Festival in Jin Dynasty. Wang Jia of the Eastern Jin Dynasty "Notes": "Jiangdong is commonly known as Tianchuan Day on the 20th day of the first month, with a red line.
Putting pancakes on the roof is called mending the sky. According to legend, The goddess patching the sky. (Note: They are quoted from Zhou: Lectures on Chinese Etiquette.
Code "on page 593, Renmin University of China Press, 1992. )
People commemorate the legendary goddess of creation in the form of festivals and simple simulated actions to mend the sky. This kind of commemoration and worship is not only for Nu Wa.
The direct worship of this particular goddess is to abstract the divine power of all women into a divinity on the level of consciousness, and to believe and worship it. exist
In the legends of ethnic minorities in China, there are also creation goddesses like Nu Wa, such as Luo Jia of Zhuang nationality, Satyaba of Dong nationality and Mi of Yao nationality.
Lotto "and so on. Although in the feudal society of more than two thousand years, women were regarded as incompetent groups, but regarding the sacred ability of women,
Ancient myths have always influenced people's belief psychology. On the one hand, people strongly deny women's ability, on the other hand, they are criticized by women.
Such as fertility, so in the mainstream of male chauvinism, the belief in women's ability has always been weak but stubborn.
The powerful undercurrent has been surging silently for thousands of years. This has also cultivated the soil of belief concept for the endless festivals centered on commemorating women. (3 for women in China.
People's heavy thinking
( 1)
One hundred and forty years ago, when the soul symbolizing a title floated up, when the attractive chengde mountain resort Meridian Gate at the Great Wall slowly closed, one
The plot began to brew. Spread, but also brewing the vicissitudes of China in the past hundred years. After all, history will not repeat itself, and time will not go back.
So we don't know what the end of the feudal era would be like in China without the rule of Cixi. We can only imagine and think for a long time.
Just like a question mark, an ellipsis, perhaps China will not be so full of humiliation, and we would rather have more salt.
Smoke, maybe we can live with more dignity. However, the smoke is no longer pervasive, and, no matter how noble and impossible it was a century ago,
Me, too arrogant. How arrogant your body is, it just turned into a pile of bones today. But it left us more than that.
There is still endless thinking.

Yu said that a dynasty that has gone through hundreds of years of turmoil always begins with the heroic spirit of the strong. Yes, it is, but every dynasty should
When drawing a full stop, it is always full of war, always on the run, and always ends in a sad and regrettable way. here,
We don't talk about the glorious or sad history of each dynasty, but turn to the yellow and dusty history and push open the heavy palace gate of Miyagi.
Pay attention to the traditional vulnerable groups and women in China.
(3)
No matter how brilliant and filthy each dynasty is, if we read it slowly and don't miss a certain paragraph, we will find those paragraphs.
Almost every dynasty is inseparable from the embellishment of women. These words hundreds of years ago and thousands of years ago are always recorded on wooden slips, with plain ink and no tone.
Silk, rice paper and books are just casual dust. However, how many people have thought about it carefully, what is included in it?
How many bitterness and tears, how many unspeakable words, how many died in a foreign country, and how many were not satisfied. Whether it is happy or sad at first, it is always
It is inevitable that the outcome will be tragic.

Twenty-seven centuries ago, Shang Tang was isolated in the south by a vassal. However, he may never have imagined that 600 years later, he created it himself.
The empire will also be gently pushed down by a vassal, blowing up dust and thick blood all over the sky, just a fragile woman.
Later, Xu wrote "Biography of Immortals". In this novel, Zhou Ben is a good king, the world is at peace, and war is coming.
Calm down, the Prime Minister Yaxiang tried his best to help, which seemed to be prosperous. However, it is quite comic. Later, the decline of a dynasty actually originated from the love of Nu Wa Niang.
Niang evaluates her beauty as king, revealing a man's most primitive desire.
The reliability of this novel is difficult to distinguish. In fact, many lost histories are difficult to verify, and they don't go through the calendars of hundreds or thousands of years ago.
The dust of history, who can tell the ups and downs of so many things? Da ji should be a beautiful woman, as beautiful and talented as Nu Wa.
I hope those of us who used to be famous forget the platform, forget the country and forget that we are the pillars of a country. Then build a wine pool and repair meat.
Lin, a firecracker, will play with da ji in Jiuchi Meat Forest, which will support the whole Shang Dynasty. The red-hot brand went up in smoke.
A dynasty is at stake.
In every dynasty from prosperity to decline or perish, there will always be these tragic women, to themselves.
Sadness has pushed the whole history forward. But do we think of looking at a woman's tender shoulders to bear the rise and fall of a dynasty?
Yes, isn't it? It's too heavy and cruel. I think the result they caused may be the complete decline of a dynasty, and then the war.
The fire continued, and then another dynasty rose, and their own ending was even more tragic. On the way of Xuanzong's entry into Shu, Yang Guifei's fragrance disappeared in Ma Wei.
Three feet above the white silk on the slope. I think, in fact, they are not only for simple prosperity, but also not very free. material
In fact, under the great pressure of imperial power, they have no strength to fight back and no room for manoeuvre; Or it can be said that during the feudal period,
Women's social status has caused great psychological pressure on them, and people's most basic consciousness, oppression, must be resisted, but they are too
Weak, they only have to roll with the punches, so once they are not controlled by anyone, they can give orders to everyone, and they will be unscrupulous, so
I vaguely feel that they are still out of the most primitive desire for equality and freedom.
(5) The Tang Dynasty was really a great dynasty. Not only has remarkable political, economic, cultural and diplomatic glory, but also has
Emperor Taizong's Zhenguan rule and Xuanzong's Kaiyuan prosperity also gave birth to the only queen in China-although Cixi was like the queen a thousand years later,
But compared with Wu Zetian, she is inferior to Wu Zetian in all aspects. Cixi ruled China only to satisfy her expansion.
Selfishness is just a constant loss of power and humiliation of the country, and a constant cession of land to save her rights, no matter how dark China is; Although Wu Zetian also has rights,
But at least she didn't let Tang, who had just prospered steadily, decline. On the contrary, during her reign, she developed in all aspects. She used Yao.
Song Jing and other wise ministers run the country, and their politics and economy are not very turbulent. A large number of talented literati have emerged-although most of them are
Against her, they opposed her from the traditional Confucianism, moral ethics and the idea that women can't stand the rule of the world, such as Wang Luobin.
Therefore, perhaps Wu Zetian is the most successful woman in China's history and even now. Judging from her success, she is not only for herself.
Their rights, or for the sake of the whole Wu, rather than to realize Li Zhi's long-cherished wish, or don't want to look at Tang, who has just made a fortune.
The dynasty fell into the hands of a mediocre son. Moreover, she also fully demonstrated her role in the historical stage, without her, Tang and even the whole of China.
History will be much darker. Let's think further. Is this a kind of gender discrimination that has been passed down in China for thousands of years, and men are superior to women?
What about the challenge of inferiority? When should we take action to seek the desired equality for millions of women in China? So she succeeded. Once again from
Judging from all kinds of complicated historical time, Wu Zetian undoubtedly failed again. First of all, she felt Wu Shi's pulse, which was almost a few years after Li Longji ascended the throne.
Killing and disappearing, even without the strength to struggle and breathe. The power accumulated by the Queen, the young and clever SHEN WOO Emperor Xuanzong, was not taken seriously. And from the military.
Personally, it wasn't her grandmother that Li Longji died later. It seems that Li still can't stand her, and she is still being
Exclusion. In ancient times, it was sad not to enter the ancestral temple.
And these are nothing, but even after the queen's rule, women's equality and status remain the same.
Not recognized by feudalism. After the queen's death, society returned to its previous order. For a long time, the status of women has been determined by the mainstream Confucianism and Mencius.
Deep-rooted, women have long been husbands, and literati's thoughts are even more stubborn and tortuous, such as the flow of thousands of years.
It is almost impossible for a river to change its direction at once. Confucianism or other theories they accepted did not really raise the status of women to a higher level.
Degree. Moreover, when the literati step into the quagmire-like politics, the social environment silently engraves what women should look like in their hearts.
What position? In other words, it was society or thought that decided the status of women a long time ago, and their lives were doomed to be miserable. scholar
Therefore, students can't stand the inconsistency with traditional ideas, and can't stand a woman openly challenging the ideas passed down and then surpassing them. because
So they spared no effort to attack and curse Wu Zetian, so Luo wrote: "A cup of wet soil is six feet lonely?" What's even more tragic, however.
What's more, after the death of Wu Zetian, which woman climbed to her height, and which woman dared to violate the traditional concept of silent recognition by society?
And pool, which woman will be so vigorous for equality, and which woman will leave so many sighs. Isn't she just a failure and a tragedy?
What about yours? However, history is just, and what should be affirmed will be affirmed. Wu Zetian's position in the history of China is not only unique in history.
Being a queen is so simple, therefore, we can feel gratified. In the face of historical selfless proof, Wu Zetian can also be in print.

There is also a kind of woman who is not noble in birth and has no strength to bind chickens, but the place is free and beautiful. If it weren't for them
It's so beautiful, and then as an exchange of peace or a pawn in a conspiracy, then they may have love and live like other women.
A dull and happy life will not bear the unbearable heaviness in life. This kind of woman is just a victim of politics. hear nothing of
When they die, who will shed a few tears in which direction of the world? Really, let women's tender shoulders bear the burden of men.
Is it too heavy and cruel to choose to escape? The servants in the Wu Palace will not return until the King of Yue has defeated Wu. Who knows,
She returned to the place where she accepted reincarnation. Maybe Wang Zhaojun is happier. Uhaanyehe loves her very much. She is dead.
Sadness. However, judging from the broken scenes before we entered San Francisco, there were countless sleepless nights and miserable music outside the tent. How many/much?
People understand the helplessness of not finding their hometown? The Story Of Diu Sim in the Three Kingdoms is really a victim of politics. General Guan couldn't understand her in the jade moonlight.
The tenderness between elegant sleeves and dancing, in the arms of Dong Zhuo or Lu Bu, is she really happy? It used to be infighting and undercurrent.
In feudal society, they were powerless, they could not decide their own destiny, all they had was their own soul. For them,
How to evaluate it? Do we pity or admire? Is it plain, or praise? However, thousands of years ago, the ancients
And things, I don't know how many earthly cycles I have experienced, and I don't know where I am now. What we can do now is to save my soul.
Scatter petals all over the sky, then sprinkle a cup of turbid wine in the mourning incense, and then leave without looking back.

After reading these classics, dust also fell on my brow. Everything in the past seems to have happened again. My face is coming, damn it.
Shoulder, the woman who passed by, my heart seems to have only the sadness between heaven and earth. A group like a woman has always been weak, but it is not her.
The weakness of children is that the social environment mercilessly deprives women of their rights, and then arbitrarily determines their fate. This may not only be a patent for women.
Sorrow, or the sorrow that China feudal society can't be perfect and can't be concealed. And until now, such a strong atmosphere still happens from time to time.
Appear in some unknown place. Is it true that sorrow is always sorrow? So, this is really sad.
