In the perspective of the world, this is formed in the past hundred years. Looking at Chinese history from a historical perspective such as the Song Dynasty is different from looking at China as a traditional Chinese history. First, if a person's thinking is still stuck in the same as the Qing Dynasty more than a hundred years ago, and his vision and cognition are stuck in the history of China's dynastic change, then he will definitely draw the conclusion that the Song Dynasty is cowardly and incompetent, and the conclusion is that whoever has the biggest fist is strong, and it is his father who destroys the Song Dynasty and destroys the Ming.
Therefore, the limitations of this view of history are there, and it is not surprising that people who are limited by this view of history are still the minds of the family, and it is not surprising that they have come to such a conclusion, just as the frog at the bottom of the well came to the sky as big as the mouth of the bowl.
Second, the real view of history is the view of the world, putting Chinese history in the global and human perspective, if you can do this, that is the real cognition, will conclude that the Song Dynasty is a Chinese Renaissance stage, the Song Dynasty left mankind with endless spiritual heritage and scientific and technological creation,
So look at history, not only look at how he died, but also look at what he brought to the world. The honey-bellied swordsman often pointed the spearhead at the Song Dynasty, but did not dare to accuse the robbers, in fact, they were real cowards.
Of course, this is actually two sides of the same thing, that is, the Song Dynasty's science and technology and economic Bofa people are rich, but at the same time, the Song Dynasty was also defeated by no culture, so what the Song Dynasty has to do is to achieve a perspective to take into account.
But critics of the Song Dynasty often do not mention the Song Dynasty's contribution to humanity at all, but only humiliate and attack. This is unfair and unhelpful. For example, the following one
This person is the typical pre-modern worldview. Reflected in the fact that the Chinese people do not know that there are many other countries on the earth during the conservative dynasty change thinking, do not look at him can type and use mobile phones, but unfortunately the thinking is still a stale and ignorant ancient, emitting a putrid smell.
This kind of person is willing to lock his consciousness in the era of China's feudal emperors, and does not dare to really explore the truth of the world, and human civilization is actually really pitiful! Poor creatures
Then from the perspective of the development of the world and human civilization, first, the Song Dynasty really brought many progress to human civilization, such as the perfection of the three major inventions. Second, the Song Dynasty was indeed wiped out by steppe marauders, as was most of Eurasia during the same period.
Then we can conclude that the departure of the Song Dynasty is a historical loss, because the Yuan Dynasty has contributed to mankind, not. The Song Dynasty was indeed a weak person in the face of pure force of robbers, but it was this weak person who brought a lot of progress and hope to human civilization, so did it really surface to sympathize with the weak or sympathize with the robbers? No.
The real core question is whether or to what extent the world should be able to tolerate the weak but endless creativity of martial arts, that is, whether human infighting should be the brainless warriors defeating the creators of civilization, or should coexist, or should civilization defeat the advanced.
This is the fundamental question of whether civilization will triumph over force or whether force will triumph over civilization. It is still the third way, the coexistence of force and civilization. Powerful and cultured mutual tolerance – maybe that's the real answer.
