Recently, two famous people died in France at once: first Roland Barcet, and then Saudi Arabia; one was sixty-four years old and the other was seventy-four years old.Newsweek reported on the news of Basser's death, saying that in France, Saudi Arabia's knowledge throne, "the person with a definite right of succession" should be Basser.The news also said that the semiotics studied by Baser may have had as profound influence on Western culture in the past two decades as Saudi existentialism had on Western culture in the early years. There are certainly similarities between Saudi Arabia and Basel's ideology, but there are also too many differences.To say that they are similar means that they are not exactly the same; to say they are different, that is actually how they should be.It is impossible to create original ideas and theories out of thin air. Most of them are based on the fusion of various theories and then have a different understanding, and then form a separate system.It is good to have style; it is not good to stop at comprehension but not to have style.Some Western commentators believe that what Baser said and discussed can only be said to be "comprehended", not decent.This is a bit "roundabout".

When it comes to literature, Saudi Arabia and Barcelona are not only not pedantic, but "open" to make some people frown.Saudi Arabia's What Is Literature? "It said that the reason why people can read is because of their freedom of thought.Freedom refers to transcending words to comprehend the meaning evoked by words.He said that when he was reading, it was "overheading" the black characters on the white paper that brought the protagonist to life.He doesn't have to spell out the words in the book word by word, so he can come and go freely without being involved in the words, and run through the whole meaning of the book; he is not involved in the words in the book, so he can transfer the expectations, fears and despairs in his heart to the protagonist, Let yourself and the protagonist hope together, fear together, and despair together.In other words, if you can't stay outside the "words" and can't touch the "words" to make you feel, you can't talk about that kind of reading experience.

According to this argument, Basser has a good understanding and points out that the words in literary works do not have fixed and unchangeable meanings so that readers can understand them at a glance and stick to them from beginning to end.If every word is interpreted according to the meaning in the calligraphy book, if a word cannot break free from the shackles of "the exact meaning of the language", then there will be no literature at all in the world.Literature, he said, aims to confuse the reader.In other words, literary works are meant to tease readers' minds, allowing readers to constantly find out the ideas brought by words from different angles; readers should not be limited by every word and its meaning.In this way, writing and reading must be supplemented by imagination.It may be more mysterious to talk about imagination, but it is better to say: the feeling of reading literary works has a lot to do with the mood and mind.Comparing reading to listening to the rain, Jiang Jie's "Yu Meiren" is very relevant: "A young man listens to the rain song upstairs, and the red candles are dimmed. The middle-aged man listens to the rain in the boat, the river is wide and the clouds are low, and the broken wild goose is called the west wind. Now listen to the rain Under the monk's hut, there are already stars on the temples; joys and sorrows are always merciless, dripping until dawn before the first step."

They also have their own understanding.What is literature?When you meet someone with a heart, literature is literature; otherwise, isn't it "a little before dawn"?Saudi Arabia and Barcelona can't even hear the rain now.
