About the author

Yu Qiuyu 余秋雨

147 books22 followers
Yu Qiuyu (余秋雨), born in 1946 in Yuyao, Zhejiang, is one of the well-known contemporary Chinese cultural and literary figures. With an enormous readership in China and overseas, his cultural explorations link China with the rest of the world and his bold and direct criticisms of certain cultural phenomena make him loved and detested in equal measure. In 1985, Yu became the youngest full professor in China at the age of 39, and later became the president of the Shanghai Theater Academy.

一趟飞机读完整本书,关于文革、下乡、改革、中国人性,学到太多。余秋雨的文笔从优美感人(乡间童年、家人情怀)到震撼人心(文革境遇)再到深刻缜密(学术思考、游记),甚至时而幽默,从始至终引人入胜、令人发思,不愧是大师。很期待以后读书中提到的他的其他作品,并强烈推荐不熟悉这段历史的年轻人一读本书。

部分摘抄:

“我又想到了家乡的吴石岭。那么多古书都藏到山肚子里去了秘不示人,外面看去还是莽莽苍苍一派强蛮,这才是乱世存身之道,山河授人之诀。”

“在失去别的任何价值系统的环境里,把生命搁置在最艰苦的档坎上,才能最明晰地感知它的存在。”

“我只希望,下一代的灾难,不要像我们这一代遇到的那样带有如此宏大的群体性:群体性承受,群体性制造。”

“社会封闭已久,缺少思维资源,处处积习难改,事事坐井观天,能产生多少有价值的意见?[...] 我的经验是:苦难产生蔑视,蔑视产生强硬,强硬产生高效,高效产生轻松。”

“由此可见,担当有些职务需要预付极大的社会勇气。别看这些职务当时被一个行政架构支撑着,但当报复终于到来的时候,承受者只有你一个人,架构已与你无关。”

“二十多年前,中国人只在迫不得已的情况下破除了一个虚假的经济谎言,社会就有了起色。这个经济谎言是:形势一片大好,而外国,到处水深火热。但是,破除这个谎言的动力,在经济,在政治,而不是文化。”

“为什么在中国境内,他们不管何时何地,只要向别人发起进攻就取得了批判的资格?[...] 最终的原因只有一个:大家找不到全社会文化精神层面上的真正的‘公堂’”。

“我在国内时,总是越考察越感到步履沉重,因为历史留给我们的垃圾实在太多了。尤其是看到许多历史不长的民族和地区反而能大刀阔斧地构建现代文明,快速走向民主和强大,内心更偏向于对历史重担的摆脱,觉得太古老的文明理应死亡。”
