Chapter 29 Tao Yuanming Fourteen

Yuanming's influence on national character is greater than that of other literati. Official and secluded, advancing and retreating constitute the common psychological characteristics of the Chinese ruling class and intellectuals.Confucius is the pioneer of theory, and Tao Yuanming is the practitioner. A large number of intellectuals with brilliant talents and noble morals were unwilling to work with villains and mediocrities, so they left or even died.It's a pity.In modern politics, there is finally a famous saying: politics is a process of constant compromise.Learn to tolerate, including tolerance for heresy.Sartre, a French writer, is known for his involvement in politics and social life. He wrote the famous play "Dirty Hands", revealing the truth that it is inevitable to get involved in politics.Habermas, a German philosopher, intervened in the drafting of the EU constitution... Ancient Chinese scholars symbolized Tao Yuanming, and the state fled without justice, resulting in a huge deficiency: failing to reveal the essence of power.

Of course, we also stand and talk without back pain.The feudal society is too long, and the power is too scary. How many heads have been cut off in the literary inquisition of the past dynasties? Yuanming advances by retreating.Where are we going?Enter the realm of aesthetics. This is extremely important today. Yuan Ming is our number one rural poet, and today's countryside is facing great changes.Urbanization is advancing rapidly, pushing towards the land, rivers, mountains, sky, and villages.Here, the speed itself becomes a big problem. If all the things that happen in a hundred years happen in ten years, the consequences will be difficult for any supercomputer to simulate.While approaching nature, it also destroys the world of life, destroys the connotation layer of life, and threatens the diversity of culture.So scholars exclaimed: protect nature, protect all diversity!

The phenomenology pioneered by Husserl is a single model for technology.There is a strong trend of reflection on science and technology in the West.Heidegger very precisely called it "anti-kinematics", similar to matter and antimatter in the sense of quantum mechanics. The season is approaching the winter solstice. I read the news yesterday. The temperature in Moscow is actually about the same as the warm spring temperature in Bazi, western Sichuan.I was taken aback: Is it really going to be a bad thing?If human beings really want to be smart, they will be misunderstood by cleverness. As Hawking predicted, they will not survive the new millennium?

Uncontrolled urbanization and artificialization will turn nature into inventory, and disaster will approach us in an imperceptible way.The faster you go, the faster the natural rebound. Shakespeare said: God let you perish, first let you mad! And once urban life loses the reference of rural life, it will fall into a vicious cycle of noise and impetuosity, with weird things emerging one after another.Let’s just talk about natural phenomena: rain is not like rain, wind is not like wind, the sun is not like the sun, and the moon is not like the moon—is this the direction the villagers of the global village are heading?

Against all these, Yuan Ming's poems are good medicine, clearing heat, detoxifying and refreshing the mind. From the perspective of communication, Yuan Ming is not as lucky as Holderlin.Through Heidegger's insight, Hertz's reputation has greatly increased, even surpassing Homer, Goethe, and Schiller.At present, in German universities, Holderlin's poems are compulsory courses.In the past few years, we were busy driving away poets.Can Yuanming's kind Tianjiayu make today's students recite a few? At present, the significance of Tao Yuanming may not be overstated.He should become another symbol, and it became clear quickly.

Let's end with his sentence: Aware of the past and not remonstrance, know that the coming ones can be chased; the real lost is not far away, and the present is true and yesterday is not! 2007.1.5.Meishan's Forgetting Words
