【Stroll through the Forest of Books】The Aesthetic Candlelight of Zhou Bo Literary and Art Review - "Feiquan Collection" After Reading| Essay Wang Weiye

I am glad that "Feiquan Collection" is about to be delivered, and I am quite impulsive and want to talk about some experience. Gein author Mr. Zhou Bo is an old friend I admire very much, over the years we have exchanged a lot of ink and ink, plus most of the works to be received are read by myself, so I do not take the risk of taking the initiative.

This book is one of the few rare literary criticism albums. Generally speaking, excellent works are already valuable, and it is even more valuable to be able to write book reviews that lead fashion and enhance aesthetics, not to mention that this is a collection of more than twenty book reviews, which is particularly valuable.

One of the valuable ones is that the author's solid and profound literary and artistic theoretical foundation has supported us with a brilliant one. Mr. Zhou Bo joined the army in the early 1970s, successively served as a platoon leader, a company instructor, a propaganda officer of the political department of the division and the army, and after changing careers in the mid-1980s, he successively served as the secretary of the organ, the radio editor, the mayor of the township and the secretary of the party committee, and the head of the county-level organ department. For example, all the works collected in this book, carefully tasting, can be said to be to the point, do not excavate. For example, the article "Recitation of clouds and flowing water, listening to the golden sound and jade vibration - Yang Hua's poetry "good sentence" Gongfu Discussion" talks about poetry creation:

The author believes that writing new poems (modern poems) under the premise of expressing the theme, tempering good sentences and crafting them carefully, is very critical to improving the level of inclusion of poetry. Like the modern famous old poets He Jingzhi and Li Ying, they are quite concerned about this, like 'the blood-stained straw shoes on the Long March Road have been transformed into the annual rings of Cangsong', 'A car, through a magnificent century', etc., are all alert and novel, and the flavor is deep. Although the new poetry is different from the ancient poem, because the new poem uses the vernacular, it will be beneficial to read more ancient poems and study the skills and work of the ancient people to refine sentences. ”

It can be seen that the author is familiar with many genres, and often expounds the unique creations and insights of the exquisite police. Reading Mr. Zhou Bo's comments carefully, it is not difficult to find that his theory and education involve the integration of the horizons of many disciplines such as literature and poetry, literature and art, aesthetics and even philosophy. Coupled with standardized and informative citations, all of them show the author's solid theoretical foundation and profound literary literacy.

Another example is the fragment of the article "Poetic Heart Magic Pen Enlightenment: Capturing the Spiritual Landscape of the Soul - A Brief Discussion on the Spiritual Beauty of Prose":

"All scenery is love language, and love is the lifeblood of flesh and blood." Only when the natural scenery and objects are infiltrated with emotional splendor will they be full of vitality and transform into an unforgettable artistic reality. When commenting on the works of calligraphers and painters, Mr. Nan Yuanjing firmly grasps this point and tries his best to express the spirituality of prose in the commentary text, so that readers can taste the charm of the calligraphers' works and realize the profundity of the works through reading. ”

This shows that the author's literary and artistic theories not only have depth, but also breadth, and can point out and stimulate words in literary and artistic fields such as poetry, calligraphy and painting. His commentaries not only look at literary and artistic works, but also look at real life, and have both calm and objective academic judgments and flexible lyrical artistic essays, so they often present poetic interpretations of reasonable blends.

The second valuable thing is that the author's strong sense of mission to drum and shout for the times is admirable. From the source, literature and art are created by the masses of the people and should belong to the people, and serving the masses is the primary task of writers. But for a long time, especially in the present, our writers have shown a wandering tendency towards the fiery life and the magnificent great practice of the present. Mr. Zhou Bo's masterpieces, whether it is prose, poetry or literary and art criticism, are closely related to the times and close to life, and multi-perspective and all-round observation of what the people do and feel and expect. As he felt in "A Heroic and Tragic Song of the War of Resistance - After Gao Fugang Reads it":

"Comrades who have been soldiers know that the soul gives dignity, blood wins glory, and soul and blood are always the backbone of soldiers and the blade of victory. Whether it is in peacetime or in times of war; no matter what profession you are engaged in, or whether you are doing a specific job, it is extremely important to maintain the soul and bloodiness of soldiers and grasp the basic principles of human behavior. With it, even in the face of the hustle and bustle of the hustle and bustle, you can maintain the direction of the heart, stick to it when the desire is flowing, and on the journey of climbing the commanding heights of life, the heart is far away and ambitious. ”

Such pointing and judging gives us the interpretation and enlightenment of the clouds. Literary and art criticism is rational and academic, and requires calm interpretation and rigorous exposition; literary and art criticism is also emotional and artistic, and requires a keen sense and free creation. Mr. Zhou Bo can consciously integrate his emotions, thoughts, rationality, will, that is, the entire life experience, into literary and art criticism, and I feel that his comments have vitality and strength.

The third is that the author's fiery feelings present to us are a round of warm spring sun. Mr. Zhou Bo works hard almost every day, and every dawn, I often receive hot and fast works that he has just written, which makes me sigh while I am happy, what a kind of feeling must be so persistent! Looking at his works, or paying attention to the people's livelihood, or praising the countryside, or feeling sad things, or talking about the past and the present, the words between the lines are full of love and full of love. Manifested in the commentary chapter, it is a keen grasp and a warm tracking. As the article "Sending Love to the Landscape and Water to Express the Righteousness of Heaven and Earth - After Mr. Song Zhi Reads it" said:

"There are six series of "Floating Life Essays", of which the 'Appreciation of Mountains and Rivers' part is the most intoxicating to me. The author's different yearning for the beauty of the motherland's landscape highlights the unique aesthetic personality artistic pursuit, which runs through the words and lines of the entire anthology. For example, the article "Reading the West Lake" is written in a chic and grandiose and intriguing way. There are thousands of tourists in Hangzhou's West Lake, and there are countless works written about the West Lake. In this regard, the author must seek a new perspective and another way to discover the spiritual essence of the West Lake from the natural scenery, that is, the hard bones and majestic righteousness of the West Lake. ”

Undoubtedly, the significance of taking root in the people and going deep into life lies not only in the natural connection and flesh-and-blood relationship between literature and life, but also in the fact that it still has a strong practical pertinence and important guiding significance for today's literary creation. Mr. Zhou Bo's works draw on the original ecological milk of life, so his works have personality, temperature, affection, righteousness, flesh and blood, and the value guidance made under his unique perspective is just like a breeze and warm sun, blowing warm our body and mind.

Fourth, the author presents us with a bouquet of beautiful aesthetic candles. Years of writing practice have given me a firm belief that a good article must be three words - "faith, da, ya". "Letter" is the truth, the foundation, and the greatest common divisor that can be communicated between reading and writing; "da" is smooth, unimpeded, and the best channel for information transmission between reading and writing; "ya" is pleasing to the heart, pleasing to the eye, and the secret magic weapon for the author to gain the reader's like and appreciation. Mr. Zhou Bo has a philosopher's temperament and poetic feelings, and his words and passages are elegant and unconventional, fresh and timeless. Still take the "Prose Spiritual Beauty of the Collection of Calligraphy and Paintings of the South Vista" as an example:

"In addition to its professional terminology, the key to the evaluation of calligraphy and painting criticism is to enter the wood three points, such as entering its state, the key is to care about the feelings, care about the spirituality of the critic's enlightenment, the ancients called 'single lyrical spirit, informal'. In all ancient and modern American texts, there is true feelings, true nature, and true understanding flowing between the lines. The same goes for calligraphy and painting reviews. If there is no Grand Mind of Su Dongpo, where there will be the charming breeze and bright moon of gu chibi; without Zhu Ziqing's bitter groaning, there will be no beautiful moonlight in lotus ponds; tao Yuanming's unique feelings are melted into the peach blossom garden, and the small stone pond is soaked with Liu Zongyuan's cold bones and miserable gods. ”

These words make us feel the wisps of fragrance flowing from the author's heart to the reader's heart.

Mr. Zhou Bo's poems and comments are undoubtedly full of clarity and heroism, but more full of vigor and vitality. Because he loves this era, he loves to sing praises; because he loves this land, he dares to speak out. What he gave us was a hot child's heart!

The task of criticism, Says Belinsky, is "to translate from the language of art into the language of philosophy; from the language of images into the language of theory." Through such a process of rational ascension, the specific and individual artistic depictions of literary works have universal significance and value. It is precisely because of the guidance of commentary that red classic works such as "Song of Youth" and "Lin Hai Snow Field" have enabled readers to more deeply understand and understand the difficulties and twists of the Chinese revolution, and let us still draw nourishment and forge ahead today. Literary criticism gives us what is difficult for ordinary readers to understand rational promotion and value judgment.

Therefore, Wilde also said: "Without the power of criticism, there is no creation of art." "Excellent literary and art criticism will not only support, encourage and guide the works of individual writers of the same era, but also have an impact on the creative ideas and artistic tendencies of the contemporary writers.

Mr. Zhou Bo's literary and art criticism can not only help us improve our appreciation and artistic interest, but also inspire a large number of authors to work with us to reclaim, to create, to build a beautiful world.

I look forward to the author's dedication of more excellent works, the prosperity of local literature and art, and the empowerment of a new era.
