Hu Shi's father was an official in the Qing Dynasty. Hu Shi was born in 189 1. When I was two months old, my father was transferred to Taiwan Province Province by the governor of Taiwan Province Province. Later, his family moved from Shanghai to Taiwan Province, and his father was appointed as Tongming in Zhili, Taitung, and was in charge of the battalions in Zhenhai and Hou Jun.
After the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, Hu Shi was transferred from Taiwan Province Province to Jixi, Anhui Province, but his old father failed to move with his children as he wished, even though he had athlete's foot at that time and had difficulty walking because he had to stay in Taiwan Province Province to help with various affairs.
Later, Hu Shi's father was killed when his feet could not walk? Release? Cross the ocean and return to Xiamen. A few days later, he died there tragically. At that time, young Hu Shi was only three and a half years old.
For his father's death, many years later, he said with deep feeling:
His father's death made him? Become the first victim of the first democracy in East Asia? .
This part about him? Feeling? Evaluation, many people laughed silently.
Because, what is Taiwan Province? The first democracy in East Asia? What does his father do? The first victim? . To be precise, his father died of beriberi, which has nothing to do with others.
Therefore, Hu Shi's evaluation of his father is completely a catharsis of personal feelings, which is completely inconsistent with historical facts.
However, regardless of his father, Hu Shi is indeed a talented person.
Influenced by the family environment, Hu Shi entered the school when he was less than 4 years old, showing amazing learning ability. He reads classics of Chinese studies and loves reading novels, such as The Scholars, Romance of the Three Kingdoms and A Dream of Red Mansions.
/kloc-When he was 0/5 years old, he was admitted because he read Yan Fu's translation of The Theory of Evolution. Inspired by natural selection and survival of the fittest, will your original strokes be weird and difficult to write and read? Heir? The name has been changed? Hu Shi? .
It can be seen from here that Hu Shi is a person with distinct personality and pursuing freedom.
Of course, he is not only distinctive in personality, but also self-disciplined in thinking. After his father died, Hu Shi's childhood environment was not friendly to him. Because there are too many negative things around him.
For example, my brother, brother-in-law and uncles like it? Taking drugs? (opium), and easy to gamble.
Without his mother's discipline and self-discipline, he would have been abolished long ago, and he would never be later? Great career? .
In terms of ideological expression and literary creation, Hu Shi is more elegant and romantic than Lu Xun's realistic criticism.
For example, he once wrote in a poem published in New Youth:
Dreaming needs experience as the foundation, let alone writing poetry. ,? Drunk wine is strong, loved knowledge is heavy. You can't be my poem any more than I can be your dream. ?
Besides being romantic, he is quite? Rigorous? Yes, about what? Is life like a dream or a play? Hu Shi hit the nail on the head and gave a unique opinion on this problem that troubled countless people:
Life is not a dream, nor a play, but the most serious fact! ?
Indeed, who says not?
