Text: Leisurely reading
Russian literature, the first thing that comes to my mind is Gorky.
"On the vast sea, the fierce wind gathered dark clouds..." To this day, the sound of the students reading in unison in the classroom still echoes in the ears. Once upon a time, "Let the storm be more intense!" "It became a classic quotation that students rushed to recite."
Gorky
Russian literature nourished the lovers of literature of its predecessors for a long time.
Mo Yan recalled in his essay "Childhood Reading": "I borrowed a copy of "How Steel is Made" from a teacher who admired me very much... I was short, and I could only stand on the threshold and read a book in a bean-like light. I was immersed in the memory, and I didn't know that my hair was burned by the lights. ”
Many years ago, when I read the literary work "How Steel is Made", I was also deeply attracted by the story of Paul and Tonya by Nikolai Ostrovsky, just like Mo Yan. However, Teacher Mo Yan deeply realized that "a noble person does not realize that his own nobility is the real nobility, and how valuable it is for a noble person to apologize to someone who is inferior to himself for his own faults." "And I didn't.
Ostrovsky
Most of the time, different people feel differently when reading a literary work, and if we can communicate with people who have also read the work after reading it, or refer to the comments of famous artists on the work, it will be very helpful for us to deepen our understanding of the work.
Just as I felt when I read Mr. Mo Yan's feelings of reading "How Steel is Made", I experienced my superficial reading of this classic literary work and the undisturbed mood swings between Mr. Mo Yan's words, compared to Mr. Mo Yan's "I read this book more than 30 years ago, and I haven't turned it over since, but everything is in front of me, and I haven't forgotten even a detail", I seem to have never read this classic work.
Pushkin
There are many classic Works of Russian Literature, and the names of these literary masters such as Pushkin, Gogol, Tolstoy, and Dostoevsky are even more thunderous. However, each of us has the limitation of reading, sometimes we want to read a book but do not have time to read, sometimes after reading a book is only limited to the plot of the work, unable to understand the author's creative intentions...
These questions have been fully supplemented and satisfied when opening the "World Masterpiece Master Class • Russian Volume". Russian literature occupies a pivotal position in the history of world literature, and Pushkin's "If Life Deceives You" is widely circulated.
If life deceives you
If life deceives you,
Don't be sad, don't be anxious!
Calm down on a melancholy day:
Believe it, happy days will come!
The heart is always yearning for the future;
Now it's often melancholy.
Everything is instantaneous, everything will pass;
And what has passed will become a kind nostalgia.
Dostoevsky
In this "World Masterpiece Master Class Russian Volume", two works by Pushkin, "Yevgeny Onegin" and "Captain's Daughter", are interpreted by Mr. Wang Zhiliang, a well-known foreign language expert and translator, and Mr. Liu Wenfei, currently president of the Chinese Russian Literature Research Association.
It is well known that Pushkin's position in Russia is equivalent to Shakespeare's position in England and Tagore's position in India. Pushkin is known as the "father of Russian literature" and is a symbol of Russian culture. In 1814, at the age of 15, Pushkin created The Memories of the Imperial Village, which became the beginning of his life's poetry.
Pushkin's prose writing was slightly later than poetry writing, while his novel writing was slightly later than prose writing. One of Pushkin's earliest popular novels, Najnka, was written in 1819.
Tolstoy
"The Captain's Daughter" is based on the real historical event "Pugachev Uprising" in Russia. The Pugachev Uprising was an uprising of the Russian peasant masses against feudal oppression between 1773 and 1775. In 1833, Pushkin decided to write a historical novel and set his sights on the Pugachev Uprising.
It is worth mentioning that in the process of collecting information on the Pugachev uprising, Pushkin personally visited the place where the uprising took place, collected relevant historical materials extensively, and finally, in the process of completing the novel "The Captain's Daughter", he also completed a real historical work "Pugachev History", which later became an important reference material for Russian historical research.
"World Masterpiece Master Class: Russian Volume"
"World Masterpieces Class : Russian Volumes" is a very wonderful masterpiece of interpretation, including a total of 11 masterpieces of classical literature, in addition to the two works of Pushkin mentioned above, there are Gogol's "Chincha Chancellor", "Dead Souls", Dostoevsky's "Crime and Punishment", "The Brothers Karamazov", Leo Tolstoy's "War and Peace", "Anna Karenina", "Resurrection", and so on. With its help, we can more deeply understand the background of the creation of Russian classic literature, more clearly understand the spiritual world that the masters wanted to express when creating their works, and the stories left to us by each classic work.
