More than 2000 years ago, a scholar, after suffering great humiliation, endured humiliation and completed a great historical work with flesh and blood. Thousands of years later, this masterpiece, like a bright star and a towering monument, stands in the long river of China literature and history. This scholar is Sima Qian, and this unparalleled historical work is Historical Records.
Sima Qian is an ordinary historian. Like others, he studied thousands of books and crossed Wan Li Road. However, the trick of fate made him suffer physical and mental torture and humiliation. But what is commendable is that in such a harsh environment, Sima Qian made several times more efforts than ordinary people in order to complete the Historical Records, and finally successfully completed the top masterpiece as a historian. Based on this, I sincerely admire Mr. Sima Qian. His persistence, persistence and tenacity are as admired as his works.
Reading historical records is like traveling through time and space and watching the storms in ancient China. This immersive feeling is mainly due to Sima Qian's rich emotions, praise of heroes and criticism of feudal emperors in Historical Records, which makes him full of strong feelings of love and hate. Originally, a historian only asked for an objective and fair narrative of history, not for expressing emotions. But after reading Historical Records, you will easily follow Sima Qian's thinking and feel moved and sorry for those tragic heroes with tears. I feel indignant and ashamed of those treacherous little people.
What makes me feel most is that there is something in Historical Records that other historians dare not think or write-the exposure and criticism of the founding emperor Liu Bang and the current emperor Han Wudi. Recording the history of the emperor of the dynasty is something that some historians dare not compliment, let alone exposing some negative deeds of him, which can easily lead to death. However, Historical Records completely included them in the book, incisively and profoundly analyzed their inner secrets, and showed me the most authentic dynasty without any flattery. This is unprecedented. This may be the reason why Historical Records is so precious.
Therefore, to read such classic historical works as Historical Records, we must first learn to understand life and society. The deeper you know, the more you can understand Sima Qian's psychological feelings and views on life and society through Historical Records. This is exactly what I got from reading Historical Records.
Rest in peace until eternal life is left by time. Those people and things seem to have fallen asleep thousands of years ago. On the edge of the long river of history, no matter how turbulent and gorgeous it was, I can't set foot on the wheel of changing my destiny, but their souls will last forever in time, and they will become eternal legends in the hearts of China people. Everything has passed, and the hero also takes the river as his home, leaving his own shadow in the long river of history. Maybe it's also an honor. Is it also the testimony of many people? Just because of the eternal glory in troubled times.
