From Baicaoyuan to Santan Printing the Moon is an essay by Lu Xun, which describes the author's different experiences in Baicaoyuan and Santan Printing the Moon in his childhood. In the Herb Garden, the author plays carefree and gets close to nature, which shows the nature of children. However, after entering San Tan Yin Yue, strict feudal education restricted the free development of children and stifled their nature.
The Fifth Class Meeting is another essay by Lu Xun, which describes the author's longing and excitement for the fifth class meeting in a folk festival in his childhood. However, his father asked him to finish an article before he could attend the festival. This compulsion brought him great pressure and made him feel helpless and desperate.
This article reveals the suppression of children's interest and nature by feudal paternalism. From the perspective of children, these two articles truly describe the living conditions of children under the feudal education system and show the suppression of children's nature by feudal education.
The consequences of feudal education suppressing children's nature;
1. Restrain creativity: Feudal education often pays attention to instilling knowledge and maintaining tradition, which may limit children's creativity. In the standardized education system, students are often required to adapt to the established framework of knowledge and skills, rather than encouraging them to exert their imagination and innovative ability. This may lead to a society lacking creativity and innovative spirit.
2. Restrict personal development: feudal education emphasizes obedience and consistency, which may make children lack the ability of independent thinking and self-expression in the process of growing up. When students are required to study in the same way and abide by the established rules, their personal development and potential may be limited. This may create a society that lacks diversity and innovation.
3. Increase psychological pressure: Feudal education may bring great psychological pressure to children. When students are forced to follow a strict educational model, which may conflict with their interests, abilities and values, they may feel depressed, helpless and anxious. This may have a negative impact on their mental health.
4. Social inequality: feudal education may lead to the aggravation of social inequality. In feudal society, education was often the privilege of nobles and elites, while others could not receive a good education. This may lead to the further widening of social class gap and aggravate social inequality.
