"Philosopher of the People" Aischi: You must understand the Marxism he talks about

He used "finding the peach tree in the fruit tree" to explain the philosophical laws that are universal to general;

He used "toads want to eat swan meat" to explain that "everything has its own laws of development";

He used the most plain and simple language to unveil the "high feeling" and "mysteriousness" of philosophy, and let the party's innovative theory "fly" into the homes of ordinary people.

He is the party's "loyal fighter" Aischi.

On April 25, the Spring City Evening News-Kaiping News reporter followed the interview group of "Striving for a Hundred Years road, setting sail on a new journey, learning party history, enlightening thoughts, doing practical things, opening up a new bureau, and walking the road when walking through" into the Tengchong and Shun ancient town Aischi Memorial Hall. Aischi is a model of promoting the sinicization and modernization of Marxism all his life, and he uses the penetrating power of thought to widely and deeply disseminate Marxist thought, illuminating the way forward and enlightening future generations.

Speak Marxism into Chinese

Aischi's former residence is a courtyard house of Chinese and Western styles, and today, it still retains its former appearance. Aischi lived here before he was 2 years old.

Ai Siqi, formerly known as Li Shengxuan, was born in 1910 in Tengchong and Shunshui Village, Yunnan. His father, Li Yueyuan, was a democratic revolutionary who had successively participated in the Yunnan Democratic Revolution led by Sun Yat-sen and the "War of Defending the Country" led by Cai Yi.

At the age of 14, Aischi went to Hong Kong to study, and then went to Japan twice to study. During this time, Aischi realized that it was more important to awaken the people ideologically. He read the original and translated versions of Marxism in English, German, and Japanese, thus laying the foundation for becoming a Marxist philosopher.

After returning to China, he taught in Shanghai, and in class, he used the most popular language, the simplest and most vivid examples, to introduce the new philosophy to the toiling masses and the vast number of students at that time. In 1934, at the age of 27, Aischi serialized a series of articles on the popular interpretation of Marxism in the magazine "Reading Life". In order to be as close as possible to the youth and the masses, Aischi combined Marxist positions, viewpoints, and methods with familiar examples, and used popular colloquial language to explain various practical problems in society, in order to achieve the propaganda and enlightenment role of revolutionary theory. He used the phrase "toads want to eat swan meat" to explain that "everything has its own laws of development." "A toad can catch bugs in the water, but it can't catch swans in the air, and if what you want is contrary to the laws of matter, you will have to fall into a laughing stock." The Japanese warlord wants to conquer the earth, which is a good example of the 'toad wants to eat swan meat' that everyone in the world understands. ”

Subsequently, these articles were published as Popular Philosophy, which caused a sensation as soon as it was published. He tore off the veil of philosophical profundity and mystery, and also made "Popular Philosophy" like the name, making philosophy a philosophy that everyone can understand, and was also evaluated as "speaking Marxism into Chinese."

A "Popular Philosophy" broke down the ideological defense line of the Three People's Principles

"At that time, many progressive students, because they read "Popular Philosophy", rushed to Yan'an without hesitation." Bo Yanting, a docent at Aischi's former residence, introduced that this book is like the torch of revolution, illuminating the way forward for the wider and in-depth dissemination of Marxism, so that Chiang Kai-shek also helplessly admitted: "A book of "Mass Philosophy" has broken the ideological defense line of the Three People's Principles. ”

On March 22, 1966, Aischi died of a severe heart attack at the age of 56. Chairman Mao was very distressed when he heard this, and added to his eulogy "loyal soldier of the Party on the theoretical front."

Let the party's innovative theory "fly" into the homes of ordinary people

In 1980, Aischi's wife Wang Danyi and her brother Li Shengmian donated the former residence of Aischi to the Tengchong County People's Government, and after repairs, the "Aischi Memorial Hall" was established and opened to the public in 1984. Aischi Memorial Hall is a key cultural relics protection unit and patriotic education base in Yunnan Province. Today, it still preserves stationery such as the Russian dictionary used by Eschi, daily necessities such as blankets and his favorite theatrical collections.
