Su Shi, as a rare "all-round" genius in the cultural history of China, combined with his extraordinary personality charm, has had an extraordinary influence on later generations. Therefore, there are many works about him, among which there are more than a dozen biographies according to the most rough statistics in modern times. Perhaps the most popular and striking works are Mr. Lin Yutang's Biography of Su Dongpo (with two versions of Zhang Zhenyu and Song Biyun) and Mr. Zeng Zaozhuang's Su Shi Review. Lin's works are subjective, without losing historical facts, pretending to use novel brushwork; Zeng's works are more objective and reflect more rigorous academic character. June 5438 +2000 10, Tianjin People's Publishing House published Su Shichuan, which was co-authored by Wang Shuizhao, a famous literary expert in the Song Dynasty, and his disciple Dr. Cui Ming. It can be said that the book is a collection of Lin and Zeng's strengths, and it is unique and has made new contributions to the study of the Soviet Union.
First of all, this is an unprecedented biography of Su Shi. In the past, the length of such works ranged from several thousand words to tens of thousands of words, as much as about 260 thousand words in Lin's biography of Su Dongpo. He once wrote a comment about Su Shi, which was about 230,000 words, but this book actually reached 450,000 words and was a great success. The front is the "introduction", which introduces the humanistic environment, family cultural atmosphere and cultural background of Su Shi's growth in the Northern Song Dynasty, aiming at describing Su Shi's childhood life. After that, it is the "conclusion", which gives Su Shi a general comment combined with the whole book. The text is divided into 12 chapters. The chapter titles are divided into 12 paragraphs according to the natural course of Su Shi's life, thought, creation, personality and artistic achievements. There is no usual way to mark the time process by the emperor or the emperor's year number, and there are no words to divide the life stages such as youth and prime of life. The main idea of each life paragraph is expressed in words with artistic generalization. From the first chapter "Fighting for the Eagle to Come Out Today" to the last chapter "After the Death of Heaven", Su Shi returned from Hainan and said goodbye to the world. There are no sections under each chapter, but several subheadings indicate the main events that Su Shi experienced or his tracks and friends. For example, the first subtitle in the first chapter is "Unfortunately, Su Shi failed to become the top scholar in this scientific research", and the ninth subtitle in the fifth chapter is "The cold wind blows in Baitai" and "Su Shi was relegated to Huangzhou under the escort of an imperial envoy" and so on. There are 140 subheadings in the book. Only by reading these subtitles, readers can have a general understanding of Su Shi's life. If the two appendices at the back of the book list the chronology of life and so on, it is not much different from similar works, but the "postscript" of this book is a bit unexpected. It is not a trivial anecdote that the author gilds the lily after the completion of a book, but a textual research on Su Shi's appearance and figure. The author and readers are equally interested but not very clear, which is really the finishing touch of this magnificent book. Therefore, after careful design by the author, this book is not only concise and clear, with clear chapters and titles, but also vertical and horizontal, well-organized, just like a big symphony, with a prelude in front and an ending, with five tones in the middle but no disorder, and an elegant and lingering ending melody. The construction of its framework system shows the biographer's superb artistic skills.
Secondly, this is a beautiful and vivid "belief history" about Su Shi's biography, which means that all the events described in the book are based on historical data and will never be fabricated out of thin air. In particular, the book quoted Su Shi's own literary works as evidence, and the use of this first-hand material laid the foundation for the authenticity of the book. Even if some stories come from the notes of Song people, they may not be very reliable, but such anecdotes produced at the same time still retain the true atmosphere and customs of the times, and imply relative authenticity and credibility in the incomplete materials. To say that it is "beautiful and vivid" means that the biographer writes elegantly and smoothly. Everything Su Shi experienced was described as "vivid" in artistic language, and his image was enriched by describing and analyzing the relationship between his master and the surrounding environment (including natural environment and interpersonal environment), the dialogue between characters, the details of his master's life and psychological activities. The above two aspects, in the author's own words, are "insisting on making something out of nothing" and "not advocating making something out of nothing", that is to say, while pursuing the authenticity of an event and plot, some reasonable imagination and deduction are allowed (see postscript). This may also be said to be the unity of history and logic, and it should be the correct choice of biographical works. Only in this way can biographies not lose their "truthfulness", give readers a sense of history and become history ... >>
Question 2: Which version of Su Shi's complete works is the best? Kong Fanli's ~ ~ ~
Question 3: Which publishing house is better for the complete works of Su Dongpo? There are many versions of the Complete Works of Su Dongpo, but there are some mistakes in the big version, and the collating skills are lacking. Personally, I think Shanghai ancient books, Chinese publishing houses and commercial press are not bad.
Question 4: Which version of Su Dongpo's biography is good? Zhang Zhenyu is a professor at Taiwan Province Provincial University. He is the translator of Lin Yutang's Biography of Su Dongpo (originally in English). To be fair, Lin Yutang's biography is dominated by Su Dongpo's gods, with hundreds of thousands of words. Because it introduces China's traditional culture to foreign readers, it is inevitably too artistic. However, Li's biography of Dongpo mostly narrates his life with Su Dongpo's articles and poems, with little personal subjective opinions and opinions, which is more real, has a stronger sense of history and academics, and also fully restores Su Dongpo's life.
Professor Li, a famous researcher of Su Dongpo in Taiwan Province Province, completed an epic masterpiece-Biography of Su Dongpo in eight years, with 600,000 words, elegant dictionary, novel and sharp views, detailed textual research and quotations, and hundreds of references. Different from Lin Yutang's biography of Su Dongpo, which introduces Dongpo's temperament and art, this book shows Su Dongpo's life in a more three-dimensional and comprehensive way, which can be described as a unique history of the Northern Song Dynasty.
Nine times out of ten, this book is based on Dongpo's poems and other documents, and outlines his extraordinary life experience. With the poet's rare life experience and his hard work, a living Su Dongpo stands out.

Su Shi is a man of great literati temperament, but bureaucrats and literati are two fundamentally different figures. Bureaucrats attach importance to interests, while literati indulge in imagination; Politics cannot be separated from politics, and it needs to be objective and calm, while the enthusiasm of literati needs to be vented. Bureaucrats are bound to look down on literati, so Herry Liu, the leader of the Master School, once warned his children that a scholar should put his knowledge of apparatus first, and the champion is not satisfied.
One must do one thing before one can do another, which is a necessary character of a free man. Being with someone who is too worldly
Different, Su Dongpo does not pursue wealth, does not care about worldly honor and disgrace, and only insists on his own values and spiritual freedom. Be true to yourself
People who have their own ideas refuse to agree with others, so that they can "pick up all the cold branches and refuse to live." In Nuo Nuo's voice, they have the courage to "go on, even though there are thousands of people".
Yu commented on Li's Biography of Su Dongpo: "It is an elegant academic work with a dictionary, which generally makes Su Shi come from pottery life with poetry, and the author's summary is very insightful."
Personal opinion: academic masterpiece
Reading opinion: First look at Li's Biography of Su Dongpo, which is a positive solution to Su Dongpo, and then look at Lin Yutang's Biography of Su Dongpo, which is Lin Yutang's personal view and understanding of Su Dongpo, thus distinguishing the real Su Dongpo from Su Dongpo in the eyes of famous artists, intellectuals and the world.
Poems attached to Su Dongpo (Su Dongpo's poems are full of philosophy)
Su Shi's Qin Poems
If the piano is hair, why don't you put it in the box? If the piano sounds from your hands, why can't you hear the sound?
If the sound comes from the piano, why can't the piano in the box make a sound?
If the sound of the piano comes from the fingers that play it, why not listen to it on the fingers?
System philosophy: Therefore, it is subjective idealism to say piano on fingers; The piano makes sound on the piano, which is mechanical materialism. The sound of the piano comes from the piano, which is the objective condition for the piano to make sound; It also comes from the fingers playing the piano (the fingers obey the meaningful and musical mind), and the transfer of the mind by the fingers is the subjective condition for the piano to make a sound. Piano and fingers are both indispensable for piano sound. This is not to say that the piano and fingers play an equal role in the sound of the piano. Under different conditions, their functions are different. Faced with the same objective things, people with high aesthetic cultivation are more likely to find their beautiful attributes and feel and communicate with them, thus producing beauty. Of course ... >>
