Cai Yuanpei (186865438+1October1March 5, 940), also known as Heqing,,, whose real name is Apei, also known as, Zhou, Han nationality. Born in Zhuji, Zhejiang Province, Li, a representative of modern cultural and educational circles in China, is called "the top ten educationists who have influenced the history of China".
Cai Yuanpei has made an indelible contribution to China's education, mainly in the following aspects:
First, since Cai Yuanpei, China has formed a relatively complete bourgeois education thought and system.
Second, his idea of "freedom of thought and inclusiveness" made Peking University the birthplace of the new cultural movement and created conditions for the new democratic revolution.
Third, it has protected a group of scholars with advanced ideas and outstanding talents for the Chinese nation.
He not only laid a solid foundation for the formation of China's modern bourgeois university education theory, but also had many profound insights, such as attaching importance to the scientific research of universities, advocating "freedom of thought and inclusiveness", paying attention to developing students' personality, advocating "communication of arts and sciences" and "relying on experts who know both education and learning to run schools democratically", which also had a great influence on later generations.
Some experts believe that his calligraphy swept away the rules and regulations of the calligraphy circle under the imperial examination system in the Qing Dynasty, and reflected the rhythm of calligraphy with the natural changes of line thickness and the ups and downs of strokes. He is good at regular script and running script. Most of the books seen in the market are running scripts, and the words on the books tend to be low left and high right, showing an oblique trend.
With the improvement of understanding of Cai Yuanpei's historical position and calligraphy value over time, Cai Yuanpei's books still have great room for improvement in domestic and foreign markets, because Cai Yuanpei was a mentor of the New Culture Movement in the early 20th century and a banner of China cultural celebrities. Besides artistic value, his books have high historical, documentary and cultural value.
