A short story during the New Culture Movement, an interesting story of the New Culture Movement

Chen Duxiu's announcement of the new youth is more popular than ***.

Among the members of the "May Fourth" New Culture Movement, Lu Xun's reputation was more prominent later. It just so happened that because some people in the literary shop recently criticized Lu Xun for being suspicious, mean, and making many enemies, I found out Lu Xun's reminiscences and comments on others' articles again. There is an article written about Li Dazhao in it.

One of the things that impressed me deeply about Lu Xun's writing was his comparison of Chen Duxiu and Hu Shi, the two coaches of the New Culture Movement. He said that if Taoluo is compared to a warehouse, Chen is to put up a big flag outside, and the big book says: "The inside is **, be careful when you come!"

But the door was open, and it was clear how many knives and guns were inside; And Hu Ze's door was closed, and a small note was glued to the door, which read: "There is no ** inside, please do not doubt." "One is straightforward, the other has a city, and his personality is on paper.

For another example, Liu Bannong admits that he is relatively shallow, but like a clear stream, it is clear to the bottom. If a stream is filled with mud, of course, you can't see the depth for a while, but if it's an abyss of mud, it's better to be shallow. Lu Xun praised Liu Bannong in his early days, but was dissatisfied with his state in his later years.

Seeking truth from facts, some good say good, some bad say bad, is a model of reminiscence writing for commenting on personnel. Lu Xun's evaluation of the colleagues of "New Youth" is naturally not necessarily accurate, but it is worth our reference.

Hu Shi advocated vernacular writing, and the most important reason for the fierce opposition was that vernacular Chinese was not as concise as classical Chinese. When Huang Kan, a master of Chinese studies, gave a lecture at Peking University, he had to spend more than half of his time scolding Hu Shi every time, and the other half of the time was spent lecturing, and he did not forget to take Hu Shi as an example when he lectured. Once, he praised the conciseness of classical Chinese in class, saying that if Hu Shi lost his wife, the family would send a telegram to say:

Your wife is dead, hurry home! "11 words long; If you use classical Chinese, you only need four words: "The wife will return quickly after mourning", so that the telegraph fee can be saved by two-thirds.

Huang Kanzhi is mean, and he has a reason, and it doesn't seem to be true. Hu Shi is not as knowledgeable as him. However, he also used the telegraph to describe the simplicity of the vernacular.

Zhang Zhongxing recorded in the article "Dr. Hu" that in 1946, on the anniversary of Tsinghua University, Hu Shi was invited to give a report. Hu Shi talked about his relationship with Tsinghua University, and said that one year, someone asked him to be the president, and he sent a telegram back: "I can't do it, thank you."

Hu Shi said, "I advocate vernacular writing, and some people oppose it, one of the reasons is that it costs money to send telegrams. ”

"New Youth" is in.

In the twenties of the 20th century, China played an important role in the May Fourth Movement. Should.

The magazine launched the New Culture Movement and promoted science ("Mr. Sai", democracy) and new literature. In addition, the Japanese detective magazine "New Youth", New Youth** and New Youth Forum are also included in the same name.
