Reflections on The Scholars for Senior High School Students (1) The Scholars is a famous satirical novel in China. Wu, the author, recreates an interesting officialdom story in the examination room at the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty with humorous and sharp brushwork. The main characters of the story are mostly folk literati. The author's dissatisfaction with real life and expectation of changing such a gloomy world are expressed by praising many upright Confucian scholars and lashing corrupt politicians. The novel begins with a description of a young man named Wang Mian in Zhuji County, Zhejiang Province. Because of his poor family, he has been herding cattle for others since he was a child. He is smart and studious. His lotus paintings are vivid, well-read and brilliant. He doesn't want to make friends, let alone pursue fame and fortune. The county magistrate came to inspect and couldn't hide; Zhu Yuanzhang gave him the position of "counselor joining the army", but he didn't accept it. He willingly fled to Kuaiji Mountain and lived an anonymous life.
This book also reveals that the imperial examination system has trained a group of mediocre people and corrupt officials. For example, Xiu Caihui, after he was appointed as the magistrate of Nanchang, the first thing he did when he took office was not to ask about local law and order, nor about people's lives, nor about the grievances of the case, but to inquire about local people's feelings, understand what local specialties are, and what places can be accommodated in various cases; Then customized a No.1 library, handed over all six rooms in the yamen, asked about the profits of various errands, and asked everyone to transfer the money back to the government. From then on, the sound of castanets, abacus and boards was heard all day in the yamen. Chiefs and people were beaten out of their wits one by one, shivering in their sleep. And his own creed is "three years to clear the magistrate, 100 thousand snowflakes and silver." When the imperial court inspected his achievements, it was agreed that he was "the first able man in Jiangxi".
This book not only exposes that the imperial examination system deprives people of their rights, but also criticizes that the imperial examination system is an accomplice of feudal ethics. For example, Wang Yuhui, a poor scholar in Huizhou Prefecture, was over 60 years old and failed in the imperial examination every year, but stuck to the ethical code. His third son-in-law died, and his daughter wanted to be martyred, but his in-laws refused. Instead, he advised his in-laws to let his daughter die. He said to his daughter, "Son, since you are like this, this is a matter of going down in history. Should I stop you? " Do it. "Eight days later, his daughter, dressed in white mourning, died of hunger strike. He smiled and said, "Good death! Good death! "But after the incident, when his daughter's spirit tablet was sent to the martyr's shrine for public sacrifice, he suddenly felt sad. When he came home to see his wife's grief, he really couldn't bear to go out for fun. Along the way, he observed a moment of silence for his daughter. When he arrived in Huqiu, Suzhou, he saw a young woman in white on board, but suddenly he remembered his daughter who was martyred in mourning. His heart choked and tears rolled down.
The book also lists an example of "Jin Fan's move": Jin Fan of old boys in the Ming Dynasty failed in the imperial examination repeatedly, and was admitted to the scholar only at the age of 54, and then admitted to the Jinshi. Fan Jinzhong received a lot of cold eyes at home before he got together. His wife called him around and his father-in-law scolded him in every way. When Jin Fan's family was worried about selling chickens for rice, there was a happy news that Jin Fan had been recovered from the collection. After learning the good news, he was ecstatic. Fortunately, his father-in-law slapped him in the face before waking him up and curing his madness. In the blink of an eye, Jin Fan's luck changed. He not only has money, rice and a house, but also slaves and maids. Jin Fan's mother was breathless with joy and died in the West. Hutu butchers are also uncharacteristic,
"The Scholars", a volume, tells the story of rain and snow in the scholars for a hundred years, which is both bitter and bitter.
Senior high school students' views on The Scholars (2) I read The Scholars written by Wu, a writer in Qing Dynasty, which is an outstanding realistic satire. In the book, he showed us all kinds of characters with different identities and social status, such as Yan who ate ancestral rice, who was driven crazy by the imperial examination, and did not follow the "four wonders" of feudal society, such as the talented Wang Mian and the tailor who could write poems.
I admire Shen Qiongzhi most in the book. She is a teacher's daughter, a knowledgeable and bold person. When she was tricked into being a concubine of a salt merchant, she was humble and calm, wrapped in his gold and silver utensils, jewelry and so on. Turned into a package, bribed the maid, and sneaked away. She fled to Nanjing and made a living by selling literature. In fact, in feudal times, it was difficult for women to stand on their own feet in society, but Shen Qiongzhi firmly believed that self-reliance was the most important thing in life. She did not expect the luxurious life of salt merchants, fled boldly, lived by her own hands and embarked on the road of self-reliance.
In life, only self-reliance can lead to self-respect and self-love. If you live by others, it seems cheap and worry-free, but the prospects are worrying. There are many "rich second generation" and "giant babies" in today's society. They are enjoying the superior life of their family calmly. Once the building collapses, where will they go? For example, Liu Siqi, the girl's behavior is really speechless. In 20xx, as the city protagonist of The Pain Point of Youth, he participated in the recording of Mango TV's life-style role exchange program Deformation Meter. Her story caused a hot discussion among netizens, calling it "the screenwriter shot too fake", but her story is true. She looks like an ordinary girl 16 years old. She is cheerful, loves to laugh and likes to dress up, but in the eyes of her family, she is a "little devil". How can I put it? She can be summed up as "unable to take care of herself", asking her family to feed, wear pants, roll up pants and so on. Spend money at will.
How can people who live on ancestral meals stand on their own feet in society in the future? As the saying goes, the children of poor families have been in charge for a long time, and most of our families are in good condition now, but this spirit of self-reliance must be passed on to guide you to gain a foothold in society and follow the pace of social development. At present, society rejects "giant babies" and "rich second generation" and advocates that "the country is strong when young people are strong". What is needed is self-reliant young people, so we should take action, start from ourselves and strive to become independent social people in the future.
Senior high school students' views on The Scholars (3) This novel has a puzzling feeling from the beginning. In the past, novels, especially novels like this one, must have at least one protagonist and one center, but Wu's center seems to be a little scattered, and the protagonist is constantly changing. It is impossible to see a person's whole life. The author only focuses on the most obvious characteristics of this person, and renders them with strong colors, which makes the personality characteristics and
Undoubtedly, The Scholars is a satirical novel worthy of in-depth study, and many celebrities have highly praised it. For example, Mr. Lu Xun used "greatness" to describe two books, one is Historical Records and the other is Scholars. The reason why Wu can write such a great work is inseparable from his life experience. His biological father gave him to his uncle Wu. As an adult, he followed his father everywhere as an official, so he had the opportunity to know the unknown inside story of officialdom, which played a very important role in revealing the decay of officialdom in his works. At the age of 23, my father died. As the heir of an official's children's family, he basically has no right to fight for the family property, and he can only watch a group of hypocritical relatives fight for the family property. He thoroughly saw the ugly nature of morality, and those well-dressed gentry exposed their hypocrisy in front of money. This kind of life experience is another accumulation of his later creation.
At the age of 29, it took him nearly 20 years to complete The Scholars. Nine times out of ten, the characters written in his book are true, and more than 200 characters have been completely portrayed. He did not directly say that he was a figure in his own dynasty, but wrote about the ups and downs of intellectuals' lives and circumstances during the prosperous period of Kanggan in the Ming Dynasty, especially whether they were proud of officialdom. In the book, the author makes a clear distinction between positive characters and negative characters, and the author judges their merits by their attitude towards fame and wealth. For example, Wang Mian, the first person at the beginning, is the representative of a first-class positive figure. His occupation is cowherd, but he can draw a good lotus, and his lotus is as muddy as his people. Faced with the threat of "killing a county", he would rather run around than ignore authority, and he is worthy of being a celebrity in the eyes of the author. The equally prominent positive figure is Feng Si, arranged in the middle of the book. He is a very free and easy hero and my favorite character.
According to the stone test, there is a real person. His prototype is Wu's friend, Gan Fengchi. He is brave and resourceful. He spoke out bravely, lost money to help the poor, and also scared off the county officials with his strength. But he never does it for money, only for temporary happiness. Other positive figures, such as Du, Shang, Chi Hengshan, Yu Yude, Zhuang Shaoguang, etc., are all gathered by celebrities. Du Shao Qing may feel a little weak and know that he has been cheated, but he lived like this until he ran out of all his money. Since then, he has lived a poor life, but he has also lived comfortably with celebrities, which shows that he doesn't care about fame and fortune. On the other hand, Ma Chun is a complicated figure. He has both Confucianism and integrity. And his final outcome should be right. Good people are rewarded.
At the end of the book, it ends with the story of four strangers in the market. September 17th is the season when calligraphy matures. His handwriting is particularly good, but he refuses to imitate the ancients. His temperament is particularly eccentric, honest and frank. Shi asked him to write, but he scolded him, while the monk refused to let him write, but he grinded ink and capitalized with a broken pen. Erqi is Yuan Jing, a tailor. He can play the piano, write and write poems, which seems out of step with his family as a tailor, but he doesn't think so. Does he think he can't love some literary things because he is a tailor? Sanqi is Mrs. Wang who sells toilet paper tubes. He likes playing Go since he was a child. One day, he saw several senior officials playing chess around two people, so he went over and asked for the next game. At first, everyone looked down on him, but only halfway down, the master lost. People only looked at him with new eyes and offered him a drink, but he refused. He thinks playing chess is the best thing. What's the point of drinking! The author has his own reasons for arranging the appearance order of different positive characters in this way. Celebrities in Nanjing have gradually disappeared. If you want to find strange people again, you can only start from the streets.
As a satirical novel, this book focuses and attracts people's attention. Their decadent life deepened the theme that the author wanted to express: the decay of the imperial examination system! The villain in the book is Jin Fan, whom we are familiar with. He was hand-picked by Zhou Jin. Zhou Jin, in his sixties, tried again and again. One day, he followed his brother-in-law to Gong Sheng compound and was very sad to see what he saw. He even touched the sign. Everyone is very sympathetic to him. He left him two hundred and twenty pieces of silver and donated a Guo Jian diploma. In the future, he was admitted as a scholar and studied Taoism in Guangdong. Here, he met Jin Fan who was in the same boat with him. Jin Fan, 54, has also tried many times. Zhou Jin read his article three times.
Jin Fan's fame depends entirely on stereotyped writing, and he knows nothing else, which shows that the rigid imperial examination system is deeply toxic to people. In addition to official corruption, there are also some local strongmen who collude with the government to oppress civilians. For example, Yan Zhizhong, Yan's younger brother, ran to his house and detained other people's pigs. Wang Er's brother broke his leg when he wanted it. After the death of my brother, it is reasonable to ask my sister-in-law to adopt her son as a son in the name of my brother. There are also villains like Zhang Jingzhai who let seven or eight hooligans frame monks for having an affair with women in order to seize the land of the temple. Let the monk take the lawsuit in a shady way.
Nothing can best reflect the harm of the imperial examination than Kuang Superman. At first, I thought he was a very filial person and had a good impression on him. He runs a small business in Hangzhou to support his parents. Later, I met Mr. Ma Er who chose to print eight-part essay. Mr. Ma Er gave him twelve taels of silver to encourage him to study hard. After returning home, he studied hard while doing small business, and soon gained the appreciation of Li Zhifu and became a scholar. However, something happened to Li Zhifu soon. In order to avoid getting involved, Kuang Chaoren immediately went to Hangzhou, where he began to completely change himself.
First, he met with Jing, the owner of a headscarf shop posing as a celebrity, and Pan, an official of the chief. These two are his benefactors now and will be stepping stones for him to climb up in the future. From them, he learned to take exams, to praise others, and even to make his own brother a scapegoat in the future. He also got to know Mr. Ma Er and began to choose articles for others, which was highly praised by everyone. Most shamelessly, he abandoned his wife and took the teacher's niece. Li Zhifu was rehabilitated and promoted, and he shamelessly followed him to Beijing to be an official.
Later, something happened to Mr. Pan, and he didn't even bother to look at it. He even belittled and slandered Mr. Ma Er in order to improve himself. The former Kuang Superman disappeared completely, and we have to say that this is not the credit of the imperial examination. However, Wang Yuhui, a poor scholar who was deeply poisoned by the imperial examination, was full of confidence in the imperial examination, but he failed every year, but the imperial examination still deeply poisoned his thoughts. His third son-in-law died, and his daughter wanted to be buried, but her in-laws did not allow it. Instead, he advised his in-laws to make her a martyr. As a result, my daughter fasted for eight days and died in mourning. But he laughed and shouted "good death, good death", until her daughter died and saw her sadness, he began to regret it.
This is the author's view that imperial examinations do harm to people. He showed the world the meanness of these scholars, but these are the people who really need help. ...
Senior High School Students' Reflection on The Scholars (4) I read The Scholars recently and liked it very much. Why do you like this book? There are still many reasons!
The Scholars is one of China's four satirical novels. I like this book because it gives people a real feeling. Most of the characters in The Scholars have the shadow of real people. But the author skillfully pushed the story to the previous dynasty, avoiding the cruel literary inquisition of the controller, and was very courageous. Moreover, it is very clear that the theme of this book is "Preface to the Scholars" by the idle old man in Zhai: "His book is rich with fame." Those who have a heart, fame and fortune, charm others; There are people who are proud of fame and fortune; Those who have no intention of fame and wealth, no intention of self-esteem, and are laughed at by others; Eventually resigned but gained fame and fortune, and the top of the product was the main one. "The book is centered on opposing the imperial examination and fame and fortune, attacking the bureaucracy, personnel relations and the whole social fashion at that time, which is its unique highlight.
There is also the author's creative intention in this book, and the characters are distinct. The author praises and opposes everything in the language of the characters in his works, and he is not artificial at all. Because the author doesn't like being an official, in the first "wedge", he wrote the words that Wang Mian's mother advised her son before she died: "I'm afraid the official is not Rongzong Yaozu! I see that none of these officials can have a good end; What's more, if you are arrogant and ugly as a result, my son can listen to my last words and will definitely marry and have children and guard my grave in the future. Don't go out to be an official. My mouth and eyes will be closed when I die. " When Kuang Renchao's father died, he also had similar last words: "It is important to be named as something outside the body." All these reflect the author's magnanimity.
The main idea of this book is told through short stories: for example, Wang Mian abandoned his official position to live in seclusion, and Kuang Chaoren abandoned his son to mix with officialdom, which is a good example. I admire Wang Mian's firmness when he is tempted. Spit on the shamelessness of Superman, Superman and others.
Wang Mian is a cowherd from a peasant background. With his cleverness and eagerness to learn, he not only mastered a subset of classics and history, but also taught himself the unique skill of painting lotus flowers. But he never entered the track of the imperial examination, and he was never dragged down by fame and fortune. He relies on his knowledge and skills to honor his mother and earn his own living. Knowing that the court wanted him to be an official, he fled to Huiji Mountain overnight to live in seclusion. Because he knows that anyone, no matter what his background, can't control himself once he steps into the official position. You can't have your own thoughts and activities, you can only be a slave without a soul. He finally became an open and handsome man.
Kuang Chao was born a simple and honest poor boy. Because of his pursuit of official career, he abandoned his father's legacy and became a thug of a vicious snob in cool thin, regardless of virtue, suffering all his life. In his sixties, because he had never been to school, he had to grovel, endure the ridicule of the new scholar Mei San, and clean the garbage for the former king of New China all morning. Later, I lost the position of the church, so I had to keep accounts for the businessmen and cried my eyes out. Finally, the businessman donated a imperial academy diploma to him, but he lost his dignity and climbed to the ground to kowtow to them, saying that they were born parents. You know how low the status of businessmen was at that time, and how ridiculous it was for Zhou Jin to be desperate to compliment them. And Jin Fan, an old boy who didn't even get into the exam for more than 20 times. Later, he finally made the list. On the day the list was published, he sold the hens that were laying eggs in his arms to the collection. When he knew this, he clapped his hands and laughed happily, and he didn't wake up until his father-in-law slapped him in the face. Later, many people came to flatter him, and in a blink of an eye, he had everything from real estate to maids.
Many stories here tell about the corruption of the imperial examination system in the Qing Dynasty and the disadvantages of the eight-part essay examination. You can find someone to take the exam, bribe, and impersonate. It is also described in the book. When Anton was promoted to the magistrate of Anqing, he went to chayuan to inspect the boy students, and saw that the boy students were ghostwriting, handing paper, throwing paper bricks, making faces and doing everything. There was even a boy who took the opportunity to go out and walked to the root of the earth wall, but dug a hole in the earth wall and reached out to pick up the things outside. What kind of talented officials can such an environment produce, and how can the Qing government continue from generation to generation? This reflects the substantive loopholes in the demise of the Qing Dynasty.
In this book, the characters described by the author, whether they are dutiful sons or rebellious sons, whether they are promoted or dismissed from office, whether they are Hanlin bachelors or waiters, are vividly written, and the beauty and ugliness can be seen. The language of this book is also very artistic, and the characters are often "unattractive" in a few words. Language without art is not literature, literature should be a pagoda of language art, and any part of it should shine with the brilliance of language art. The Scholars fully meets this standard. The artistic structure of this book is very novel. There are no events and people throughout, but what runs through is thought. Using fame and fortune to attract different kinds of characters, in order to deny the social system of imperial examination at that time and criticize the government.
The Scholars is not only rich and profound in thought, but also unique in artistic style. The whole story runs through the technique of "satire", and its satirical art has almost reached the point of surpassing the ancients and never returning. So I like this book better. Its language art and literature art are first-class. I believe this literary classic will be passed down forever!
Reflections on The Scholars for Senior High School Students (5) The Scholars is a work with satire as the main emotion of Wu, a scholar in Qing Dynasty, which reflects the fame and fortune life of Confucian scholars in Ming and Qing Dynasties, and also deeply exposes the decay of people's psychological concepts and the state of affairs of imperial examinations, ethics and corruption in feudal social system. It is still very warning.
Since you have written your thoughts after reading, you need the author to experience them. Only by combining them can you write something with feelings. Wu, the author, is a scholar in Qing Dynasty who hates the secular world and is full of resentment. In the officialdom, he saw through many ups and downs and many entanglements, thus writing The Scholars. This book creates vivid characters in the form of stories, and the descriptions of the characters in the stories represent the author's views on the state of affairs in feudal countries. Mr. Lu Xun once commented that this book is euphemistic, sharp and straightforward, and it is a classic of realistic literature, which shows the success of this book.
Reading "The Scholars" made me see the stubbornness of the ancient feudal dynasty, eating people and harming people. But it reminds me of China now. China today is not China in the past; Now China is a socialist country, a people-oriented country that holds high Lenin and Marxism. Now China is struggling for the rise of the Chinese nation and the realization of the "Chinese Dream", which makes our Chinese sons and daughters feel extremely proud. However, there are still some stumbling blocks on our way forward, such as persistent corruption, imperfect legal system, lack of supervision by many government agencies and deteriorating environment. These are all problems that need our patience, care and seriousness to solve.
Let's take action and do our best to build a strong, democratic and beautiful China.
