Whose work is Moonlight on the Lotus Pond?
Moonlight on the Lotus Pond was written by Zhu Ziqing on 1927. Zhu Ziqing changed his name when he applied for Peking University. The name comes from "The Songs of Chu": "It is better to be clean than to be self-clean", which means that being clean is only to keep one's innocence. Formerly known as Zhu Zihua, 1898, a native of Shaoxing, Zhejiang.
Zhu Ziqing's family is relatively rich, and his father is the director of Xuzhou Tobacco and Alcohol Marketing Bureau. Zhu Ziqing received a good education since childhood, but he lived up to expectations and was admitted to Peking University Preparatory College. 19 17 was officially promoted to undergraduate philosophy department. This year, Zhu Ziqing's family suffered a great blow. Grandma died, and my father's directing job also left office. When the family's economic conditions plummeted, my father sold all the valuable things in the family and borrowed a sum of money. Zhu Ziqing wants to continue studying again, and the situation at home is very bleak. After the funeral, he wanted to find something to do in Nanjing, and Zhu Ziqing also wanted to go back to Peking University. They entered the station together.
After seeing him get on the bus, his father took out his purple coat and made the seat. After entrusting him, his father said, I'll buy some oranges. Stay here and don't walk around. Zhu Ziqing looked at his back, tears unconsciously fell down, he wrote in 1925, named "back". In two years, he wrote Moonlight on the Lotus Pond. Zhu Ziqing's delicate description, implicit and euphemistic calligraphy, dissatisfaction with reality, desire for freedom and detachment from reality are all difficult to achieve. In the article, there is such a sentence: like a pearl, like a star in the blue sky, like a beauty who has just taken a bath.
Because of eight words, where did the pot come from?
In a free and equal modern society, parents have come up with many novel ideas. If the "shadow" violates the traffic rules and causes certain traffic misleading to students, how can "moonlight on the lotus pond" annoy parents? First of all, let's look at the background and content of moonlight writing in the lotus pond. This article was written by Zhu Ziqing when he was teaching in Tsinghua University, because he longed for freedom and transcended reality but could not be divorced from society.
At that time, many rational and upright intellectuals in China were depressed and it was difficult to find the right path. These intellectuals are worried about the country and the people, and lost themselves in the current situation of internal and external troubles. Moonlight on the Lotus Pond, which bears the long-cherished wish of intellectuals, came into being. The more beautiful the scenery, the more it shows Zhu Ziqing's yearning for paradise beyond reality.
Children who have attended junior high school are no strangers to this article, which is a must-read article for middle school students in the new curriculum standard textbook. After reading the whole article, it is thought-provoking and memorable, giving people a kind of spiritual washing. Parents asked to delete this article only because it contains eight words. Surprisingly, these eight words can cause a storm.
Views on this matter
Mr. Zhu Ziqing is really ingenious. These metaphors are not only few, but also very vivid. For example, the lotus leaf is compared to a dancer's skirt. Is this metaphor imaginable by ordinary people? These vivid metaphors, coupled with Mr. Zhu Ziqing's simple language style and his descriptions of vision, hearing and smell, simply bring people to the lotus pond under the moon!
In fact, when this passage was first compiled into the textbook, it was deleted in consideration of this situation. However, after many discussions by some writers and educators, it is considered that these words are essential for Moonlight on the Lotus Pond. Without them, the charm of this article will be less, which will not highlight Mr. Zhu Ziqing's magnificent imagination. So I finally added them back.
