The Tang Dynasty had the prosperity of all nations coming to the dynasty, the rule of Zhenguan and the praise of the kaiyuan dynasty, the secret history of a generation of empress Wu Zetian, the most prosperous development of politics and economy, and the unprecedented vastness of the territory.
Of course, culture has not fallen a little
And culture, although broad and profound compared to political economy, is more easily imitated than the complex model of political economy.
While culture was being studied and imitated by various countries, Tang Taizong Li Shimin was also constantly developing and extending various professions, such as
Li Shimin invented the profession of geisha out of his own preferences, but in the later period, geisha became a profession that ancient women avoided
In recent years, geisha have made a lot of money by taking on the stage of history with new roles.
First, Li Shimin invented a new profession
The history books record that Li Shimin's world was a mutiny from xuanwumen who killed his brother Li Jiancheng and his younger brother Li Yuanji, and without this mutiny, there might not have been a follow-up brilliant Tang Dynasty, let alone the rule of Zhenguan that has been praised so far, which has been studied so far.
Of course, li Shimin, a generation of British lords, although he tried hard to govern, he did not hear anything out of the window at all
。
On the contrary, he also had some personal preferences, that is, his personal preferences, which pushed the literary and artistic road at that time in a new direction. Li Shimin will enjoy the greatest pleasure of song and dance homework in his spare time,
There was even a special teaching workshop to hear professional and different styles of dance music
, specially used to train women's dance songs and musical instruments.
Because the establishment of the Teaching Division has provided employment opportunities for many women, many qualified women have competed to sign up for the Teaching Division to be trained.
The geisha of the Teaching Division offered them not only a profession but also a skill
Even if you reach the age of leaving the palace in the future, you still have a skill, which is also a good choice.
In the early days of the establishment of the Teaching Department, the court art technician was quite a popular profession, but it is not difficult to see from history.
In the later stages of history, the Sect Of Education not only entertained the emperor but also included some dignitaries and nobles
Later, some powerful officials and nobles did not use the teaching workshop to train geisha, but they themselves also joined the investment and began to cultivate.
Its purpose is not only to enjoy oneself, but also to please the superiors and to develop networks
They trained geisha to be as proficient as famous boudoirs, and they were proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. So the geisha, who sold herself but did not sell herself, appeared from the court for the emperor's amusement at the dinner table of the prince and the minister.
One
Some petty officials who wanted to be promoted not only used the piano in their hands but also used their posture and the unique charm of women to impress the princes and ministers
In order to achieve their goal of promotion, they decided to force them to sell themselves if necessary, and if they did not kill them immediately, the geisha had to do so in order to save their lives.
Second, the evolution of new occupations
Since then, the nature of the profession of geisha has begun to change,
It is no longer a noble profession that serves the emperor and does not sell oneself, but gradually becomes a low-level profession that cannot even keep its own innocence
Under the influence of ancient feudal etiquette, innocence was so important to girls, and geisha began to change their taste, but the mothers of Fireworks Willow Lane felt that the profession of geisha was more novel.
Geisha may be able to serve as a new business opportunity, so they also began to train geisha, they are raising girls who grow up with children and multiple parents to sell, or fatherless and motherless girls who are begging outside for good growth.
But in this way, at least help the homeless children to solve the problem of food and clothing
They are strictly required from childhood, because the owners of Fireworks Willow Lane will not provide them with only idle meals.
When the cultivation of twelve or thirteen years old first bears fruit, they will be carefully dressed up and sent to the wine field where the children of the family drink and chat
。 At first, because of their young age, they really just played the piano.
At most, I can talk about poetry with the children of the cultured family and talk about my views on the song just now,
But then after a long conversation, the guests gradually drank more and their hands began to get restless
At first, my mother felt that they were too young to do disdainful work, and she only needed the geisha to sell their art and not sell themselves to help them earn a little money to listen to small songs and drink.
But then simply do not do two endlessly, since both
It is the money-making mother who thinks that the profession of geisha can earn more than the simple prostitute who sleeps with her
The prostitutes only have a simple income from sleeping with them, but the geisha is listening to music and chatting, and if you add sleeping with you, the income is enough for three parts. So when the guests began to move their hands and feet later, the mothers no longer blocked but let everything seem logical.
Later, the price was simply marked, which led to the later hearing that selling art and not selling oneself felt that it was a joke that did not exist at all, they were no different from those prostitutes, and the geisha from the real selling status of the emperor at the beginning was reduced to an improper and low-level occupation that could be seen everywhere in fireworks and willow alleys, and from a new profession that was initially scrambled to sign up became an industry that everyone spurned and avoided.
Third, the current geisha
Li Shimin invented the geisha for a thousand years, and now it has reappeared on the stage, transformed into a fragrant feast, from thousands of years ago, everyone spits on,
Today's tens of millions of fans, a little appearance for a few minutes can earn a full pot, can be described as fame and fortune
As a result, in the eyes of today's young people, fame and fortune seem to come easily
So they asked them what their dreams were in the future, five years and ten years earlier they would still say scientists and doctors, if asked now most of them said they wanted to be stars. So for the sake of this seemingly glamorous profession,
There were a lot of people with broken heads and bleeding who wanted to squeeze in
Some of them do not go to school at a young age, and they participate in various drafts under the leadership of their parents, just to get a chance to debut and become famous.
Some people give up their studies at the age of eleven or twelve and sit in the shooting bases of major film and television dramas, waiting to be seen by big directors for the dream of overnight fame
In the final analysis, the essence of the geisha that entertained people in ancient times and the star artists who are now singing and dancing in various film and television dramas are the same, but why did artists move from when to today's national idols, quan
The people are willing to spend money on it to win more than academicians and more than scientists, firefighters and so on, and some real national idols that have really made great contributions to society
summary
In ancient times, women's low status had no opportunity to realize their own value, even if a generation of British lords Li Shimin invented new professions for women.
They thought that they could solve the problem of women's employment, and they thought that they could slightly improve the status of women
, so that they are no longer so humble,
But he did not resist the exploitation of those who had a heart, and turned this opportunity into a means of gaining fame and fortune
Women are still beaten back to their original form or even worse, and now that the times are developing, the spiritual world is liberated, and people can not only decide their own future, but even discover new careers on their own.
You can pay for your own likes, you can spend for your own hobbies, but it is not advisable to pour into the entertainment circle and offer artists to the altar
