Volume 1 Sleepy Shallows 045 [Ancient Prose Viewing]

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Zhao Han roughly knew the development of literature in the Ming Dynasty, because the teacher of the professional course had roughly talked about it.

    During the nearly three hundred years, Ming Dynasty has experienced three literary revival movements.

    At this moment, the second retro movement has long since ended, and the third retro movement is still in its infancy.

    Between the two restorations is the rise and fall of Romantic literature.

    During the Wanli period, the government was corrupt and there were many social contradictions.  The publication of "Burning Books" (Li Zhi), which contained a large number of heretical thoughts, laid the cornerstone of the Romantic literary trend of thought.

    Immediately afterwards, Yuan Hengkong, the third public security officer, was born, and popular literature blossomed, opening the most exciting chapter of Ming Dynasty literature.

    There were three kinds of popular literature at that time: Public Security literature, erotic novels, and satirical literature.

    Most of the large number of small Huangwen in the Ming Dynasty were produced during this period.

    Two of the police officers and Yuan died, and the only remaining Yuan Zhongdao suddenly denied and corrected himself.  He abandoned retroism and returned to the road (true feelings and authenticity), and seriously fell into retroism (magnificent hypocrisy), and the romantic literary trend of thought came to an abrupt end.

    Thus, the Jingling School was born.

    The Jingling School absorbed the spiritualism of the Gong'an School while emphasizing the style and law of classical poetry.

    Between the two, it is difficult to reconcile, resulting in poems in the late Ming Dynasty full of ghosts and ghosts, striving for obscurity and treachery, strange characters and dangerous rhymes, which have completely entered the evil way.

    The same is true for articles. Scholars like to study ancient Qin and Han prose, but do not absorb the essence of ancient Qin and Han prose.  Instead, he is keen on obscure and treacherous, and especially likes to use uncommon words.

    In the early years of Chongzhen, there was a lack of success, and it belonged to the era when the cultural atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty was the most withered!

    ?The boat docked at Shitang Town, and Fei Yinghuan was holding "The Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties" in his hand. He had lost interest in visiting friends and just wanted to stay on the boat and continue reading the article.

    "Master, we're here." Wei Jianxiong reminded.

    Fei Yinghuan had no choice but to walk away with the book in his hand, wandering about the true interest of the ancient prose, his mind full of "hearing the Tao in the morning, and dying in the evening is enough".

    Zhao Han followed behind, looking at the busy wharf, dumbfounded at the moment, thinking: How many super towns are there in Qianshan County?

    Shitang Town, the largest papermaking center in the country in the Ming Dynasty!

    In this town alone, more than 10 million pieces of paper are produced every year, of which more than 300,000 pieces of memorial paper are tributes, which are specially used as memorial paper for imperial officials.

    There are tens of thousands of paper workers in the town, and at this time the entire Qianshan County has a registered population of just over 10,000.

    Arriving at the luxurious mansion outside the town, after handing over the name cards, Menzi immediately took them to the living room.

    "Brother Dazhao, which gust of wind brought you here?" Fei Zhaojia walked out of the courtyard to greet him.

    Fei Yinghuan said: "Gunzi Tongshi, let me come to your place for a walk."

    Fei Zhaojia is Fei Yinghuan's clan brother, not from the main clan of Henglin, and the characters of the two clans are not compatible.

    Shitang Fei's is also very powerful, mainly engaged in papermaking business. Fei Zhaojia's family has raised thousands of paper workers.

    After exchanging pleasantries, Fei Yinghuan couldn't wait to say: "My dear brother, let's read this book."

    Fei Zhaojia is also quite talented, but unfortunately he is only a scholar.  He glanced at the cover, then shook his head and said, "I've read this book, and it's not very helpful for imperial examination articles."

    Fei Yinghuan thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's true."

    The imperial examination developed to the end of the Ming Dynasty, and every sentence in the Four Books and Five Classics had been tested many times, and it was impossible to write new tricks.

    Then you can only ask for strange things blindly, the more strange you are, the more you will attract the examiners.

    If you can use uncommon characters, resolutely do not write commonly used characters.

    There are many ways to write a character, so choose the complicated one to write.

    However, the eight great masters in Tang and Song Dynasties are all sincere and honest, and their words and sentences are relatively straightforward.  This style of writing is difficult to imitate. Without a solid foundation and rich experience, it is easy to write mediocre and superficial.

    Imperial examination articles are most afraid of mediocrity. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, scholars simply did not read the Eight Great Masters.

    ? To be precise, the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties were eliminated by the imperial examination

    Suddenly, Fei Yinghuan shook his head again and said, "This is the case in the rural examination, but not in the general examination."

    "Maybe," Fei Zhaojia smiled wryly, "I haven't even passed the provincial examination, so I dare not imitate the Eight Great Masters."

    ?The whole set of imperial examination process, the rural examination can be said to be the most difficult, especially in Zhejiang and Jiangxi!

    If the scholars of Zhejiang and Jiangxi do not have outstanding talents and studies, and take the provincial examination with the writing style of the Eight Great Masters, they will undoubtedly seek their own death.

    The National Examination is different. You don't need to deliberately seek strangeness and innovation. It is a good article if you can explain the truth clearly.

    Fei Yinghuan stood with his hands behind his back: "I will cultivate the Eight Great Masters for two years

    As he was writing, Fei Yinghuan suddenly said: "I don't even need ancient prose in the Qin and Han Dynasties. I have studied them carefully. Let's start writing from the Wei, Jin and Six Dynasties."

    Zhao Han immediately changed the line, and Fei Yinghuan was looking forward to it.

    "Chen Qing Biao", I have read it.

    "Preface to Lanting Collection", I have read it.

    "Return to the Home", I have read it.

    ?Writing all the way to "Beishan Yiwen", after more than ten articles, Fei Yinghuan found that he only knew one or two articles.

    Du Mu's "A Fang Gong Fu", such a famous article, Fei Yinghuan has never heard of it!

    Du Mu is not from the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

    Most retro-stylers despise the late Tang Dynasty (except for the late Tang Dynasty school), not to mention the ancient prose of the late Tang Dynasty, and even the poetry of the late Tang Dynasty seldom read.

    Zhao Han just wrote with a dull head, and he wrote hundreds of articles in a blink of an eye.  He forgot most of the content, but he remembered a lot of the title of the article, so he threw it to Fei Yinghuan to read slowly.

    Fei Yinghuan's expression became more and more horrified, and he turned his gaze from the paper to Zhao Han, as if observing a monster.

    How can it be possible for a child who has read so many articles to be just an ordinary Confucian family?

    There was no "Guwen Guanzhi" in the Ming Dynasty.

    Fei Ruhe, Fei Chun, Qin Xin, Jian Dan, and Jiu Po ??are all dumbfounded standing by at the moment, they have hardly read any of them.
