Liang Sicheng is liang Qichao's son, with temperament and cultivation. Liang Qichao fought all his life for the cause of China's revolution, and his son Liang Sicheng fought all his life for China's construction cause. After the Xinhai Revolution, Liang Sicheng followed his parents back to China and was later admitted to peking Tsinghua School.
In 1923, he successfully graduated from the higher education department of Tsinghua University, and then went to the United States with Lin Huiyin to study. In the United States, Liang Sicheng learned the most cutting-edge architectural knowledge and architectural concepts, which paved the way for Liang Sicheng to devote himself to The cause of Chinese architecture.
How high is Liang Sicheng's achievement in architecture? After returning to China in August 1928, Liang Sicheng taught at Northeastern University, where he established the first department of architecture in the history of modern Chinese architecture. In 1930, Liang Sicheng participated in the planning of Tianjin and won the award. In 1932, he participated in the restoration project of wenyuan Pavilion in the Forbidden City and wrote the "Rules of Qing-style Construction" in the same year, which was quite influential at that time.
During the Anti-Japanese War, Liang Sicheng and Lin Huiyin surveyed and surveyed more than 2,000 ancient buildings in China, making great contributions to the restoration of these ancient buildings. In the era of peace, Liang Sicheng taught his knowledge to his students, and was deeply loved and respected by the students.
We can glimpse the master's thoughts and patterns in "Liang Sicheng and His Time", and also let us understand that "the times make masters, and the times influence masters". Liang Sicheng is impeccablely successful in his career, but there are indeed some problems with emotional problems.
Liang Sicheng has two marriage experiences, the first is a marriage with Lin Huiyin, and the second is a marriage with Lin Shu, who is 27 years younger than Liang Sicheng. These two marriages bring Liang Sicheng completely different things, and the world's evaluation of these two marriages is also completely different.
Liang Sicheng's marriage to Lin Huiyin was a good story at the time. The matching of two people's families, the equality of talents, and the convergence of ideals can be described as soul mates. Liang Sicheng and Lin Huiyin met when they were young, and then they went to the United States to study architecture together. After returning to China, the two traveled together to more than 200 counties in 15 provinces of China, surveying and surveying more than 2,000 ancient buildings from the Tang and Yuan dynasties, and the two made great contributions to the cause of ancient architecture in China. In life, the two are also winners in life.
Liang Sicheng and Lin Hui had a son and a daughter, the boy named Liang Congjie, and the girl named Liang Zaibing. After the birth of his son Liang Congjie, Lin Huiyin wrote "You Are the April Day of the World" and gave it to Liang Congjie, who was still in his infancy. The couple raised their children into gentlemen and ladies, did not limit their interests and hobbies, and let the children develop freely. This kind of education paved the way for Liang Congjie and Liang Zaibing's achievements in their respective fields.
Liang was admitted to the History Department of Peking University and taught at Yunnan University before holding several positions. Liang Congjie attaches great importance to non-governmental environmental protection activities and leads the formation of China's first private mitigation organization, "Friends of Nature", which has contributed to China's environmental protection activities and made outstanding achievements in the environmental protection industry.
Liang Zaibing studied Spanish at Peking University. After graduating, Liang Zaibing became a foreign correspondent and her husband worked in the UK, Australia and Hong Kong for a long time, making outstanding contributions to news reporting.
The second marriage between Liang Sicheng and Lin Su is a little problematic. First, Liang Sicheng and Lin Su do not have much affection. In his later years, Liang Sicheng suffered from illness and had limited mobility. I think it's not so much about marrying Lin Su to find a caregiver to take care of. Second, Lin Su has many problems in his character.
The malicious evaluation and description of Liang Sicheng and Lin Huiyin in the book "Liang Sicheng, Lin Huiyin and Me" written by Lin Su can be said to expose the dark side of his character. Interestingly, Lin Su also had a son and a daughter before marrying Liang Sicheng.
However, Lin Su's discipline of the two children is somewhat arbitrary and follows the tide, and Liang Sicheng is not very attentive to these two children. Therefore, the two children did not even go to college, and finally found the corresponding job with the help of Liang Sicheng.
Seeing this, we can't help but think a little about family education. Children who grow up from four children, two different families will vary depending on their homeschooling. Lin Huiyin's family education is more scientific than Lin Su's family education, and it is more able to let children find their own direction. Therefore, the importance of family education is an important part of us that we cannot ignore.
