Essays on Ningbo's history and culture
On June 20, 2008, 65438+February 20, 2008, the unprecedented "Spring and East Zhejiang Academic Culture International Symposium" came to a successful conclusion. The 10 day event attracted more than 50 top experts and scholars from home and abroad to gather in Haishu, bringing new research results and pushing the cultural research in eastern Zhejiang to a new climax. This is just a microcosm of Haishu District making full use of historical and cultural resources to enhance regional "soft power".

Haishu District is named after a Drum Tower built in the Qing Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty. 1 180 years of long history has left many precious historical sites for Haishu. There are as many as 17 national, provincial and municipal cultural protection units within the jurisdiction, and there are nearly 130 municipal and district cultural protection points. Yuehu Lake, the mother lake of Ningbo, was built in the Song Dynasty and located in the hinterland of Haishu. The world-famous private library holy place "Tianyi Pavilion" is quiet in the hustle and bustle, hiding in the bustling Haishu Center; The "Baiyun Village" taught by Huang Zongxi, the founder of the East Zhejiang School, exudes a long history and cultural heritage. ...

How to transform these profound historical and cultural connotations in Haishu District into a powerful driving force for comprehensive strength? Haishu's experience is to be a "watcher" of history and culture, developing in protection and improving in excavation.

Guarding means inheriting, consolidating and caring.

In recent years, Haishu District has continuously strengthened the protection of historical heritage, and found out the folk "lost" cultural relics through three general surveys. A new round of population census was launched in 2007, and 80% of it has been completed.

In terms of investment in cultural protection funds, Haishu District is by no means "stingy", and cultural relics protection has a material guarantee. In the past two years, Haishu District Government has directly invested more than 5 million yuan in the protection of cultural relics, and a number of cultural relics renovation projects have started: in 2006, the district government invested 2 million yuan to start the renovation of forest houses of provincial cultural protection units; In 2007, the district government invested 650,000 yuan to repair the second exhibition project of Zhang Cang Water Former Residence; In 2008, the government designed and invested 6.5438+800,000 yuan to carry out environmental renovation of the national key cultural relics protection unit QuanWang Zu Tomb. ...

Haishu District has also built a huge and professional heritage protection network. In 2003, Haishu Historical and Cultural Heritage Protector Association was established, and now its membership has grown to more than 150. The association organizes various cultural tours from time to time, and amateur librarians scattered in various fields play an active role. In 2006, two amateur librarians in Haishu District were rated as provincial excellent librarians.

Thanks to full publicity, the protection of cultural heritage has set off the wind of "general mobilization of the whole people" in Haishu District. Special days such as "5. 18" International Museum Day, "China Heritage Day" in June and "12.8" Ningbo Maritime Silk Road Publicity Week are the highlights of cultural heritage publicity in Haishu District. For two consecutive years, the cultural protection department of Haishu District held a "Memory of the City" square story meeting with the community, where the masses told their own history and vivid things around them, so that the awareness of protection could be integrated into people's lives. In Haishu, the cultural heritage is no longer "high". The cultural protection department, in conjunction with the Tianyi Pavilion Museum and other municipal cultural relics units, has repeatedly "opened" the "cultural relics caravan" to send cultural relics to community exhibitions. The unique collection of Tianyi Pavilion was also printed into a book for the first time last year and entered the homes of ordinary people.

Hope is hope, integration and creation.

Enclosure is not the best way to protect cultural heritage. Haishu District pays attention to development and utilization, transformation and upgrading in protection.

Seven of the eight historic districts in Ningbo are located in Haishu. Through the integrated development of these key areas and regions, blocks with various cultural characteristics will be presented to the public. With the start of the Yu Jiaxiang plot, it is planned to preserve the original 20 cultural relics and historical buildings and completely reproduce the traditional features of the ancient city. The large-scale residential buildings of the Yuan family, a famous scholar in the Song Dynasty, and Yuan's former residence, one of the pioneers of the new China film industry, around the Nantanghe historical block, are all included in the unified planning of the block.

Grasping the key development of regional culture, Haishu District has created one boutique culture after another. Among the rich historical and cultural treasures, the most dazzling is the academic culture of eastern Zhejiang. As the "first person after class history", they are all masters of eastern Zhejiang culture. Haishu District pays attention to investment, in-depth research and excavation, and seriously inherits and develops the ideological achievements of scholars from all over Zhejiang and their representatives. With the care of Ningbo Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government and the guidance and help of national, provincial and municipal cultural relics authorities, the district government attached great importance to the protection of the spring tomb, and repaired it three times in succession: 1993, 1994 and 1999. This year, Haishu invested1800,000 yuan to restore its cemetery to a clean, solemn, simple and elegant state.

Explore the connotation with activities and make the historical and cultural heritage of Haishu District "live". In September last year, Haishu District held a seminar in Baokui Lane, Yuehu Lake to commemorate the 900th anniversary of the birth of Shi Hao, a famous historical and cultural figure. More than 70 people from Ningbo cultural circles and descendants of Shi's family attended the seminar to explore many relics left by Shi's family in Ningbo, and the people who were lost in the long river of history became clearer and fuller in the discussion. Haishu also actively carried out international historical and cultural exchange activities. Sesshū Tōyō, a Japanese painter known as "the first gifted scholar", has always regarded Ningbo as his second hometown. His first paintings after returning to Japan were all set in the mountains and rivers of eastern Zhejiang. Recently, Merton, a disciple of Japanese17th century painter Sesshū Tōyō, visited Ningbo twice, and Haishu was one of the important stops. Korean TV documentary production company also came to Ningbo to shoot the feature film Sesshū Tōyō.

Haishu district digs deep into practical significance from cultural heritage. All advocate seeking truth from facts, being determined to innovate, not being strong, advocating loyalty and being unyielding. These spirits not only absorb the essence of traditional culture, but also are closely related to the social core values advocated today, such as the spirit of the times with reform and innovation as the core, the national spirit with patriotism as the core, and the socialist concept of honor and disgrace. In recent years, Haishu District has absorbed nutrients from these traditional spirits and summed up the "Haishu Spirit" of "Bona compatibility, honesty and virtue, pioneering and pragmatic, and pursuing Excellence".

Haishu, which is committed to the protection and development of traditional cultural heritage, has blossomed into a wonderful cultural flower. From June 5438 to February 65438 to1October 20, 2008, Haishu District cooperated with the Institute of History of China Academy of Social Sciences, the highest academic authority in domestic history research, and successfully held the "International Symposium on Spring and the Academic Culture of Eastern Zhejiang", which is the highest-level and most representative international academic symposium on the study of Eastern Zhejiang School in Ming and Qing Dynasties in recent years. More than 50 authoritative experts and scholars from the United States, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, China, Taiwan Province Province and China submitted academic papers at the meeting, which further clarified the position and role of Quan and Zhedong academic culture in the ideological and cultural history of China and the world, and expanded the influence of Zhedong academics overseas. "Such high-quality cultural activities will be more and more in Haishu." The relevant person in charge of the cultural department of Haishu District is full of confidence.
