Ancient prose refers to the characters in the Spring and Autumn Period, Warring States Period and previous ancient books. Xu Shen said in "Shuo Wen Jie Zi Xu": "Mrs. Zhou wrote fifteen pieces of Da Zhuan, which is different from ancient Chinese.
"Compare the ancient prose with the seal script, saying that the ancient prose is the general name of the characters before the history books. Because the ancients had no pen and ink, they used bamboo sticks to draw and write on bamboo tubes. This is called book deed, also called bamboo slips.
Because bamboo is hard and greasy, writing is not smooth, and the words written are thick and thin, like tadpoles, so it is called tadpole book or tadpole essay. The lacquer books on bamboo slips can all be called tadpoles, not necessarily books written by him or tadpoles.
Ancient prose mainly refers to the characters in ancient books, such as the Book of Changes, The Analects of Confucius, Chunqiu, Shangshu, Zhou Li, Shilu Chunqiu and Xiaojing. This is an early writing style. Compared with parallel prose, it is a kind of prose with strange sentences, single lines and no dual temperament.
Parallel prose prevailed after Wei and Jin Dynasties, paying attention to duality, neat syntax and gorgeous words. Su Chuo opposed the flashy style of parallel prose in the late Northern Dynasties, and imitated the style of Shangshu to write Dayu, thinking that the article was a standardized genre, called "ancient prose", that is, writing articles in the prose language of the pre-Qin Dynasty.
Later, in the Tang Dynasty, Han Yu, Liu Zongyuan and so on. It is advocated to restore the tradition of rich content, free length, plain and smooth prose in the pre-Qin and Han dynasties, that is, to call such prose ancient prose. After writing Ouyang Sheng's Mourning, Han Yu said, "The more ancient it is, the worse it is to read its sentences. You can't see the ancients, but learn the ancient road. "
Teacher Shuo said: "Li, ... is good at ancient Chinese prose and six arts. He studies in his spare time regardless of time." They all formally put forward the names of ancient Chinese prose, which were used by later generations.
The outstanding ancient prose writers in the Tang Dynasty, although calling for retro, are full of innovative spirit. They not only emphasize the importance of "Tao", but also attach great importance to the role of "Wen", advocating creation, advocating that "only the ancient words must be their own" and "Wen follows the words to know his duties" (Han Yu's Epitaph of Nanyang Fan Shaoshu).
The ancient prose they wrote is actually a new type of prose, which was extracted from the spoken language at that time and became a new written language. It has its own personality and the reality of the times, some of which are more difficult but not mainstream. He Jingming, who advocated that "literature should be in Qin and Han Dynasties" in Ming Dynasty, said: "The prose in Sui Dynasty was invincible, Li Han revived, and the ancient prose method died in North Korea" (On Poetry with Kong Li). It can be seen from this sentence that Han Yu's so-called ancient prose is different from the pre-Qin and Han dynasties, which has both inheritance and innovation.
Learning to read ancient Chinese requires a deep knowledge of writing. From the early 1920s to 1980s, "root-seeking culture" became hot again, and "Chinese studies" became hot again in the 1990s, which is the reflection and face-up of modern people on traditional culture. Today is the repositioning of traditional culture in today's multicultural China and even the world.
Today, the world has reached a historical period of western learning spreading to the east and cultural transformation. Carrying forward Chinese culture is the unshirkable responsibility of every Chinese descendant. A country's learning is also.
Life with land is on it, because there is a country, and people with a country have their own knowledge. People who study, learn the knowledge of a country, think it is useful for the country and govern it.
"(Lecture on Chinese Studies, Journal of Chinese CuisineNo. 19) Mr. Deng's view on Chinese studies is very extensive, but he mainly emphasizes the practicality of Chinese studies. : "All the past cultural history of China is our' national heritage'; Studying all these past history and culture knowledge is a "national heritage", and the province is called Sinology. "
Hu Shi's viewpoint has the most extensive influence because of its lofty position in academic circles. Modern people's understanding of "Chinese studies" mostly evolved from Hu Shi.
Now, Sinology can also be called Sinology, which is based on the pre-Qin Confucian Classics and philosophers' studies, and covers a unique and complete set of cultural and academic systems such as Confucian Classics in Han Dynasty, Metaphysics in Wei and Jin Dynasties, Buddhism in Sui and Tang Dynasties, Neo-Confucianism in Song and Ming Dynasties, Parallel Prose in Tang and Song Dynasties, novels in Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and historiography in past dynasties, and constitutes four magnificent classics, history, philosophy and collections. At present, Professor Wang Furen of Shantou University has put forward the concept of "New Sinology", which he thinks is the need to adapt to the academic development of contemporary China. "New sinology advocates the overall concept of China culture, saying that Hu Shihao is good, but it does not deny the greatness of Lu Xun. Don't take the opposition of various cultures so seriously, every part is indispensable. " It regards China culture as a whole structure, which is the general name of China's academics, including China's ancient academics and China's modern and contemporary academics.
"The new Chinese studies emphasize that politics, economy and culture are a whole, and no one can lack anyone. Thousands of years of history and experience tell us that the prosperity of Chinese culture leads to the prosperity of the country, and the historical and traditional culture is full of cohesion, appeal and creativity.
The vast majority of China ancient prose has been circulated for a long time, during which there are many wonderful works like clouds. Once you get into it, you will be fascinated! It is true that it is as difficult for beginners to read ancient Chinese as it is to read gobbledygook. We can go from shallow to deep, step by step. The ancients could also read "hang your head over your head". Today, TV, Internet and other modern information dissemination tools have created very good conditions for us to learn ancient prose, and ancient prose education is becoming more and more intuitive. With a little effort, it is not difficult to learn real prose.
2. Why do you want to recite classical Chinese? The Chinese nation has a civilization history of 5,000 years, and its development course and essence are concentrated in the vast ancient China.

3. Why do you want to recite ancient Chinese? I used to have such doubts, such anger, such incomprehension. Haha's laughter ...
Classical Chinese is a national culture. We should take the essence and discard the dross. By reciting classical Chinese, we can be familiar with the way of speaking of our predecessors.
Going back, I think, is just a means. In the future, for example, if you go to college, or have a job, do some research that interests you and get in touch with the culture of your predecessors, you can understand the situation by reading the original works of the ancients. I haven't seen the vernacular translated by modern people. As you know, sometimes there are many subjective factors in translation, and different people have different understandings of the same sentence.
With such a character, you don't want others to limit your thoughts, do you?
4. Why do you want to recite ancient poems? Ancient poetry is a treasure of China culture, which has both historical significance and appreciation value. It is necessary for us to recite ancient poems from childhood, which is not only an emphasis on our ancient literature, but also a heritage of China culture.
Since childhood, we have been forced by the school to recite ancient poems. What we are most afraid of is the words "please read and recite the full text" written at the back of the text. Faced with a large number of ancient poems, we sometimes feel very distressed. Obviously, I won't use it in the future, but I forgot it when I recited it. Why do I often take these exams? But it turns out that the ancient poems we recite are also helpful to our later life.
What we usually learn is the interpretation of ancient poetry and the expression of various artistic conceptions. After graduation, even if you meet an ancient poem, you will probably understand what it wants to express. We usually hear basic ancient poetry, which will reflect its meaning and understand what the speaker wants to express, instead of looking awkward and embarrassed. When we speak on special occasions, we can express ourselves with one or two ancient poems. Proper export will make people feel that a person is very cultured and meaningful.
Ancient poetry is still very common in our daily life. Many ancient poems will be quoted, whether it is speaking at ordinary times, making a general report, leading a meeting, or making a report. If we can't understand the meaning at these times, wouldn't it be embarrassing, extremely embarrassing to ask others and unable to understand the meaning of the speaker?
China's ancient poems are very particular about words and artistic conception. Reciting ancient poems is also a way of understanding and enjoying old age. The artistic conception beauty of many ancient poems can be tasted in life. If you are good at observing life, you may occasionally feel the same way as a poet, and you may feel the same way through the Millennium.
