Quick comment | look forward to "Tsinghua Jane" to bring more surprises

Can you imagine that more than 2,000 years ago, our ancestors constructed a complete set of "three-dimensional space" cosmology; Xuan You may be the son of the Yellow Emperor... A few days ago, more than 2,500 bamboo janes "Tsinghua Jane" collected by Tsinghua University released the latest research results, once again stunning the world.

"Qinghua Jian" refers to a batch of bamboo Janes around 300 BC, involving the core content of traditional culture, and many of the contents have not been discovered before. Because of this, every appearance of "Tsinghua Jane" can attract many eyes. Since 2010, "Tsinghua Jane" has also lived up to expectations, and has released many major discoveries, which not only greatly affected academic development, but also provided a high-quality traditional cultural "science lesson" for the public.

For example, in a long Warring States Bamboo Book called "Five Ages", "digging" out the grand and complex system of heavenly beings constructed in the pre-Qin period is of great significance to the study of ancient astronomical calendars and national governance; and then the discovery of the earliest domestic calculator "Arithmetic Table" provides evidence for the first climax of the development of traditional Chinese mathematics in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, so that the nihilistic attitude of denying the achievements of ancient Chinese mathematics at home and abroad is self-defeating.

It is necessary to pay attention to making history and culture "alive" and "close" to the public in more diverse forms.

This "popular science class" makes traditional culture constantly meet modern people, arouses people's stronger interest in history and culture, enhances people's cultural self-confidence and pride, and further deepens people's identification and respect for Chinese civilization. Therefore, a big cultural IP like "Tsinghua Jane" can come more and more violently. It is necessary to present more traditional cultural academic research results to the public in an appropriate way, and pay attention to making history and culture "alive" and "close" to the public in more diverse forms. In this way, it is also of great benefit to solve the talent problem in the relevant field. Some reports pointed out that in recent years, with the advancement of archaeological work, the number of excavated documents and materials has increased, but the lack of successors has become a lingering embarrassment. Just as Hunan girl Zhong Fangrong was influenced by Fan Jinshi to choose to apply for the archaeology major of Peking University, I believe that with the success of big IP such as "Tsinghua Jane" "out of the circle", there will be more teenagers entering the professional hall of excavated literature research, so that more "dust" of history shakes off time to reveal its true face, so that more excellent traditional culture blooms out of the era.

I hope that "Tsinghua Jane" can bring us more surprises, and also look forward to the young people who are interested in history and culture and aspire to work in this way to bring more surprises to the future research of excavated documents.
