/kloc-In the 9th century, the French poet Rambo wrote Living Elsewhere.
1968 In May, students in Paris wrote this sentence on the wall of Paris University.
In 1970s, Milan Kundera took it as the title of the novel.
Then it is the common name of bars all over the world.
"Living elsewhere" is a famous saying of the French symbolist poet Rambo, and the real life is always somewhere else. This is the characteristic of youth. In youth, who has no desire for honor? Who hasn't resisted the family? Who has no yearning for the unknown world? Looking around, the life around us is mediocre, narrow, boring and unchanging. Every day is full of food, clothing, housing and transportation, without color and light. It is in order to escape this annoying reality of life that people give themselves passion and imagination.
Rambo (1854-1891)15 was good at writing Latin poetry and mastered the traditional rhythm of French classical poetry. From the age of 16 (1870), he often went out to wander, and had a close relationship with Wei Erlan, a poet 10 years older than him, but then there was a conflict, and Wei Erlan even shot and wounded Rambo. Rambo has about 65,438+040 existing poems, mainly composed between 65,438+06 and 65,438+09. The influence of panas School can be seen in Rambo's early poems, and symbolism has been strengthened in his later poems. The main poetry collections are Season of Hell and Epiphany Collection.

Life Is Elsewhere
Author: Antarctic Cloud Date: April-1614: 36: 31
In this collection of poems and songs I have read, besides Dickinson, two other poets left a deep impression on me. I don't like their poems, but I have some feelings about their stories.
These two poets are Wei Erlun and Rambo, two of the French symbolist poets, the Three Musketeers.
Wei Erlun published his poems very early, especially when he met Mathilde, who later became his wife. He wrote a lot of passionate love poems, full of longing for a warm and happy life, which has a certain influence in the literary world. After meeting Rambo, his fate began to change.
Rambo is a teenager with an unhappy childhood. His mother was abandoned and lived alone with her children. At the same time, she passed on her misfortune to her children and often severely punished them. However, he is also a gifted boy. At the age of 65,438+05, he wrote Vowels and Drunk Boat, which shocked the world. When he was fifteen or sixteen, he came to Paris alone to ask Wei Erlun for advice. Wei Erlun, who is 10 years older than him, also appreciates his talent very much, carefully guides him in life, enthusiastically helps him, and gradually develops a strong affection for Rambo.
After that, their behavior became even more shocking. They often get together. When they are emotional, they just hug each other in the street, which causes passers-by to look askance. Finally, Wei Erlun abandoned his family, eloped with Rambo and lived in England and Belgium for two years.
I think the feelings between homosexuals should be the same as those of heterosexuals, but the objects they love are different from ordinary people. But the relationship between Wei Erlun and Rambo is obviously unequal. In Britain, in order to make a living, Wei Erlun looked for jobs everywhere, and life was very difficult. He really likes Rambo and is willing to give everything for him. Like all people who fall in love, Rambo, a teenager, obviously accepted it passively. Two years later, he got tired of this life, broke up with Wei Erlun and wanted to go back to Paris. Wei Erlun lost his temper, wounded Rambo with a gun and was imprisoned for two years.
This year, 19-year-old Rambo put down his pen and bid farewell to poetry. I think talent and poetry bring him more pain than fame.
They broke up and their life paths were completely different.
Two years in prison changed Wei Erlun's thoughts and feelings. He accepted Catholicism in prison and gained a new understanding of life and feelings. He lingers between decadence and pious repentance, and his poems are erratic. After he was released from prison, he lived a poor life, but he never stopped writing poems and made remarkable achievements. For more than half a century, he was elected as the king of French poets, but his fame obviously didn't help his life and spirit.
Rambo is a person who is easily tired of his present state, which can be seen from his career and places he has been since he was 20 years old. He left France and went to southern Europe, northern Europe, Asia and Africa. He was a soldier, a supervisor and an interpreter, and finally went into business in Africa. He was very rich and died at the age of 37.
After seeing their ending, maybe I should sympathize with Wei Erlun. There is nothing wrong with loving someone. I have to pay for my lover to go to jail and be poor. Wei Erlun reminds me of those dissatisfied women who have paid a lot, but lost everything and their reason. But I can't sympathize. Rambo was only a teenager at first, and his enthusiasm for an underage teenager is beyond my understanding and tolerance. In addition, Rambo is such a person who pursues a broad life and wants to be an amorphous Rambo that cannot be defined by people. "I would like to be anyone", which is the goal pursued by his life art boat, and this goal floats on the sea, drifting with the rapids and can never be reached. He may not care about being with Wei Erlun, but after being together, he will soon get tired of his inherent life. Wei Erlun fell in love with such a person, just as Jasper fell in love with the prodigal son, and the result was predictable.
"Living elsewhere", Rambo said in a poem, which was later used as the title of Milan Kundera's novel and widely circulated.
