Etiquette music and dance "Cloud Gate". Yao has a "fairy pool". Shun dynasty has "less". Confucius claimed to have heard of Shao Yue, and praised him, saying that his music and dance were perfect. I have Summer. There was a big cloud in Shang Dynasty. There is a "great martial art" in the middle of the week. These are all famous ancient sacrificial music and dances. These six sets of music and dance have been preserved in Zhou Zhou and become six kinds of music, which are used in major sacrificial activities: "Yunmen Dajuan" is used to worship the gods; "Xianchi" worships the land god; Look at the sacrifice of "less"; "Heroes" sacrifice mountains and rivers; "Dayun" is dedicated to Jiang Yuan, the ancestor of Zhou Dynasty; Dawu is dedicated to the ancestors of the Zhou Dynasty.

"

3 modern interpretation

Six Ancient Arts: Ritual, Music, Shooting, Imperial, Calligraphy and Mathematics. What is "Imperial"? Six Ancient Arts: Ritual, Music, Shooting, Imperial, Calligraphy and Mathematics. What is "Imperial"? The skill of driving a carriage

"What is the meaning of' Yu' in the six arts' Li, Yue, Shooting, Yu, Shu and Shu'?" "Keeping" means driving, which was the basic skill of scholars at that time, because the number of chariots and horses at that time was closely related to the strength of national strength, and Confucius also regarded "keeping" as a very important content in his lectures.

Six Arts is an ancient Confucian term in China. There are two meanings:

First of all, students are required to master six basic talents: courtesy, music, shooting, command, calligraphy and mathematics. From "Bao's Family in Zhou Li": "Cultivating the country by Tao is to teach six arts: one is five rituals, the other is six music, the third is five shots, the fourth is five emperors' rituals, the fifth is six books, and the sixth is nine numbers."

Rite: Etiquette (that is, moral education today)

Le: Music.

Shooting: archery technique

Royal: the skill of driving a carriage

Book: Calligraphy

Number: algorithm (basic knowledge of arithmetic and number theory)

The second is the theory of Six Classics, namely, Yi, Shu, Shi, Li, Yue, Chun Qiu.

What do the six ancient arts "Rite, Music, Shooting, Imperial, Calligraphy and Numbering" mean? Six education and teaching courses in ancient schools in China, namely etiquette, music, archery, imperial examination, calligraphy and mathematics. The content includes five rites, six music, five shots, five royal, six books and nine numbers. The five rites are: auspicious ceremony, sacrificial ceremony, fierce ceremony, funeral ceremony, hunting and military ceremony, guests' ceremony, meeting with the imperial court or princes, banquets and celebrations. Six kinds of music are ancient music names, cloud gate, big salt, big Shao, big summer, Universiade and big martial arts, and five shots are white arrows, ginseng, notes, rulers and vessels. The white arrow is an arrow that passes through the mandarin fish, so you should hit the target with proper force, just to expose the white arrow. When connecting, send an arrow first, and then three arrows go away one after another. The one in the arrow looks like an arrow. Note that the arrow is shot, the arrow tail is high and the arrow is low, and it moves slowly. When Xiang Jun was studying, I shot with you and didn't stand side by side with you. I had to let the well instrument fire four arrows with one foot, and the shooting position on the mandarin fish should be arranged like a well. The five emperors were: "singing love", "chasing water songs", "crossing your desk", "dancing across the road" and "chasing birds to the left". Luan and Ming are the bells in the car. When the car is moving, the bells hanging on the car should ring in harmony. Water driving refers to driving in a tortuous waterway without falling into the water. When you drive past the watch, you should be able to pass through the gaps between the upright poles without knocking them down. Jumping at an intersection means driving at an intersection. You have to be out of tune, just like dancing. When hunting wild animals, drive the prey to the left so that the owner sitting on the left side of the car can shoot. Six books, that is, six books, are the materials for children to practice writing in ancient schools. Because the Ten-Day Stem and the Twelve Earthly Branches are collocated in turn, including Jiazi, JOE, Shen Jia, Wu Jia, Chen Jia and Jiayin, it is called Liu Jia. Nine numbers is the multiplication table, the mathematics textbook of ancient schools.

What do the six ancient arts refer to: ceremony, music, shooting, imperial, writing and counting? Rites: etiquette (that is, today's moral education) five rites: auspicious ceremony, fierce ceremony, military ceremony, guest ceremony and Jia ceremony.

Music: Cloud Gate, Daxian, Dashao, Daxia, Daxie and Dawu.

If the beads are in the same position, the vectors belong to each other; Note that it is the disease of vector line; A ruler, I shoot with you, I stand side by side with you, and let you back a foot; Good instrument, four vectors are consistent, all hit the target.

Yu: The five skills of driving a carriage are: singing Luan, chasing water songs, crossing the monarch's table, dancing across the road and chasing birds on the left.

Number: nine subjects of arithmetic (counting) mathematical art: square field, chestnut cloth, difference, width less, quotient work, even loss, remainder, equation and pythagorean; Nine numbers is the multiplication table, which is the mathematics textbook of ancient schools.

Among the six ancient arts, what is the meaning of "Yu" in "Li, Yue, Shooting, Yu, Shu and Shu"? Schools in the Western Zhou Dynasty implemented the "six arts" education, which means etiquette (morality conforms to etiquette norms), music (music and dance in various ceremonies), shooting (archery), driving (driving), writing (writing) and divination (divination).

Among them, the ceremony and music that promote the concept of hierarchy are the core, books and numbers are the foundation, and skills such as shooting and bending are also highly valued, and their achievements can be used as the basis for awards. Teachers are often served by officials. For example, court musicians teach music and dance, and teachers (officers) teach shooting and defense, hence the name "division".
