The distance between the dormitory and the classroom is not far, so when Chen Chong, Zhang Wufeng and four others came to the classroom, although the classroom was already full of people, there was no official class yet.
However, this time, in addition to students, there were also many professor-level dignitaries.
"It's Professor Jiang and the others who are here to attend the lecture. It seems that tomorrow's excavation and inspection are very important." Chen Xingbin only glanced at it, and his face suddenly became solemn. With this, Zhang Wufeng couldn't help but pay more attention to it.
Having read so much relevant knowledge before, Zhang Wufeng still knew a lot about the field of archeology, so it seemed that Professor Ye's class was very important to be able to serve as these professors.
When Zhang Wufeng walked along, many eyes fell on him, but most of these eyes were a bit contemptuous.
After all, most of the people who can study here are the top figures in each province and city. If they transfer here halfway, it goes without saying that they must have come in through the back door. It is normal to be despised like this.
"Huh, he's another backdoor person. He has no ability or knowledge. Even if he gets countless confirmations, he won't become a talent."
A boy wearing glasses muttered disdainfully.
"The appearance is just average, the temperament is good, but the quality is too low, I am not the type that I like." A heavyweight girl with glasses murmured in her heart.
"A bunch of idiots are so boring." A woman with a bright appearance and quick thinking thought disdainfully.
…
These people didn't know that their words and deeds were like a mirror in Zhang Wufeng's heart.
Quietly, he found an empty seat and sat down. Zhang Wufeng leaned back silently, closed his eyes and rested.
Next to him was Chen Xingbin, but now Chen Xingbin did not dare to talk wantonly, but kept quiet.
As several gray-haired old men walked in and sat down, a vigorous old man walked in with a black folder containing some printed materials.
"Hello, teachers and classmates.
What I want to tell you this time is the multi-faceted, multi-dimensional research on Confucianism, as well as the root reconstruction issues. At this moment, I am still a little scared and a little excited, because my predecessors, Zhong Zhaopeng and Fang Litian,
Lou Yulie and Mr. Qian Xun were all sitting in the audience.
…
I remember that when I was an undergraduate and master's student, my teacher, the late Mr. Xiao Fu, invited Mr. Tang to give lectures at Peking University. Mr. Tang told us about Guo Xiang and Wei and Jin metaphysics, as well as his famous article
Thesis, on "Unity of Nature and Man", "Unity of Knowledge and Action" and "Unity of Situation".
The most unforgettable thing is the first "Chinese Culture Workshop" of the Chinese Culture Academy organized by Mr. Tang and several gentlemen present at the venue today. Feng Tianyu, myself, and Brother Chen Weiping who are sitting here are all members of this workshop. We
It was part of the "Huangpu Phase I". The workshop was held five times in succession and had a great impact. I remember that the first master to appear in the first phase was Mr. Liang Shuming. At the end of his speech, he said: "I said 60 years ago that in the future
"The world culture must be the revival of Confucius and Confucian culture, and I still insist on this view." I don't necessarily agree with Mr. Liang's conclusion, but I admire his personality and spirit. We listened to Mr. Liang, Feng Youlan, and Zhang Dainian with our own ears.
, Zhou Yiliang, Hou Renzhi, Jin Kemu, Ji Xianlin, Ren Jiyu, Tang Yijie, Li Zehou, Pang Pu, Wu Xiaoling, Sun Changjiang, Mr. Ding Shouhe, and Mr. Du Weiming from overseas, who are on the stage today, as well as Wei Feide and Cheng Zhong
Through the speeches of Ying Ying, Chen Guying, Zou Chen and other teachers, I had a glimpse of the elegance of famous artists, and received a lot of new information and new interpretations, which was very enlightening. The workshop helped us later change our views on the absolute opposition between traditional culture and modernization.
It played a huge role and sowed seeds in our hearts. It was the first wave of "cultural craze" after the reform and opening up. At the end of 1985, Mr. Tang and Mr. Xiao presided over the "Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the Birth of Mr. Xiong Shili" held in Huanggang, Hubei
"International Academic Symposium", Huangzhou was not an open city at that time, and for the first time many foreign guests (Ran Yunhua, Du Weiming, Cheng Zhongying, Bulov from the former Soviet Union, Hiroko Sakamoto from Japan, etc.) and well-known domestic scholars Shi
Mr. Jun and others attracted much attention. That conference marked the beginning of the study of modern and contemporary New Confucianism in mainland China. We also had time to hold a "Chinese Culture Workshop" in Huangzhou.
…
These are actually foreign words. I believe everyone knows that tomorrow, the ruins under the Temple of Heaven will be reorganized, and perhaps new discoveries will be made.
Regarding this matter, I made a certain explanation and decision today, that is, I will take the students with me. In fact...
Regarding the study of Confucianism, I think there are at least six dimensions. I have talked about these six dimensions in detail and sorted them out. Now, I will find a student to talk about them."
Professor Ye said and looked around. Suddenly, the students who were originally silent became a little embarrassed.
Indeed, Professor Ye once talked about this issue, but the key point is that he only talked about it orally. Even if he took notes and recorded it, even if the students here are geniuses, they may not be able to completely explain it orally.
Therefore, as soon as Professor Ye spoke, the classroom suddenly became quiet.
When Professor Ye saw this situation, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy. Is this what academics do? These students are really disappointing. They lowered their heads one by one. This is not a sign of their responsibilities.
He took a glance and found that all the students basically lowered their heads. Even those students who did not lower their heads would dodge when they met his gaze, except for one young man.
"You, yes, you are new here. Do you understand?" Professor Ye saw Zhang Wufeng, and he was a little angry. He was somewhat disdainful of such people who came through the back door. There were many professors here at the moment, and he also wanted to give in.
This man has left behind his ugliness so that he can be self-aware and stop pretending to understand.
"Okay Professor Ye."
Zhang Wufeng stood up without being humble or arrogant, then he pondered slightly and said in a bright voice: "As for the six dimensions of Confucian research, I can only think of the following aspects."
Zhang Wufeng's eloquent talk attracted a group of disdainful eyes. However, when his attitude remained calm and his words were still sonorous and powerful, those disdainful eyes changed.
"The first is the study of Confucian classics. The Five Classics and the Thirteen Classics are the foundation of politics and education in Chinese history. They contain many valuable summaries of experiences and lessons in governing society, as well as records of social customs and social lifestyles. Confucian classics
Of course, not only in the Jingbu, but also in the Zibu, Shibu, and Jibu, efforts must be made to organize and study it. The second is the study of Confucian figures, including figures in the Confucian biographies, Taoist biographies, and local chronicles. Nowadays, Chinese philosophy
Ph.D. theses and academic research in this area are mostly focused on Confucius, Mencius, Lao Zhuang, Cheng, Zhu, and Lu. However, many influential figures in various regions in history have not been studied, such as Chen Shiyuan and Hao Jing in the history of Confucian classics in the Ming Dynasty, and in the history of Ming and Qing philosophy.
Hu Chengcheng, etc. There are many figures whose information needs to be collected and sorted out. Confucianism is not exclusive to China, but also Confucianism and its classics and figures in Korea, Japan and Vietnam. The third is the study of the history of Confucianism. I am not just talking about
It is the intellectual history of Confucian elites, as well as social history and institutional history. Since our traditional society is a Confucian society, there is a large space for civil society and many autonomous autonomous organizations. Confucianism is closely related to the beneficial elements of traditional institutional civilization.
For example, the civil service system, the education system, the famine relief system, the supervision system, etc. can be summarized and creatively transformed. In the etiquette, there are norms and rules about food, clothing, housing, transportation, sight, hearing, words and actions, life and death sacrifices, family rituals, and family mottos. Many of them have been transformed into
The content of the norms and rules of modern civil society. In addition to the functions of systems and norms and Confucian beauty, politics and customs, there is also a value system centered on 'benevolence' as the core, which needs to be transformed.
The fourth is the study of Confucian theory, including reflections on modernity and enlightenment rationality, dialogue with liberalism, scientism, feminism, Marxism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and even dialogue with the entire civilization.
There are also new constructions of global ethics, environmental ethics, etc. At present, it is especially necessary to correct the many prejudices against Chinese culture in domestic and foreign academic circles since the May 4th Movement. There are many views that have been inherited and become difficult to reverse. The chaos needs to be corrected anyway. The fifth is Confucianism
Participating in the construction of modern Chinese social culture, the re-unification of Chinese cultural spirit, the self-identity of the Chinese nation, the reconstruction of political consensus and a truly intrinsically binding belief system have become positive and positive factors in promoting the healthy development of China's modernization.
factors. I pay special attention to the reconstruction of grassroots civil society, such as the reinterpretation of the deeds of the "Xinyi Brothers" in Huangpi, Hubei. The sixth is the education and inheritance of Confucianism and the cultivation of future generations. Confucianism has always been closely related to education.
Today, there is a lot of room for Confucianism from elementary school and early childhood education to the education and training of Confucian businessmen and cadres, the education and training of civil servants, from families and schools to social education. We must pay attention to the strengthening of managers, officials and civil servants.
The cultivation of a gentleman's personality and the cultivation of his character..."
Zhang Wufeng's calm answer and his meticulous look really gave him the aura of learning.
"Okay, very good, you are very good. Zhang Wufeng, you will stay with me as an assistant tomorrow. Now, please sit down." Professor Ye said with a happy face.
The leaders and professors of other schools also looked at Zhang Wufeng with great admiration.
This is not just a question, but an expression of ability, strength, and character.
"Thank you, Professor." Zhang Wufeng smiled slightly and bowed to show his respect for the professor.
This professor, from his initial contempt for those who used the back door to his sincere apology in his subsequent words, behaved openly and generously without any pretense. His attitude and character were very good.
