When Western countries were engaged in the Renaissance, what was China doing?

When Western countries engaged in the Renaissance, China was in the Ming Dynasty, and China did not develop science and technology at that time, and people generally still focused on agriculture.

At the beginning of the Renaissance, Zhu Yuanzhang was fighting with Chen Youliang, and when the Renaissance was in full swing, Li Zicheng went from being beaten by the official army to fighting all the way to Beijing, and then ushered in the Qing army to enter the customs. The Chinese dynasties tasted the sweetness of the imperial examination with the Confucian classics as the main body, and established the main body of the imperial examination in the Ming and Qing dynasties, which was dominated by the Bagu literature.

Renaissance. It is a literary and artistic trend in the West.

The so-called revival refers to the inheritance and promotion of the glorious achievements and excellent traditions of the past.

In the 5,000-year history of Chinese civilization, similar literary and artistic inheritance and promotion exist, but our researchers have not applied Western proper terms.

Let's take an example, Han Yu in the Tang Dynasty.

and so on.

It is a kind of inheritance and promotion of the prosperous culture of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and has achieved remarkable results.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the germination of capitalism did occur, but in order to attract attention, China has always believed that "agriculture is the foundation of the country", and scholars also despised "mercenary" businessmen, believing that indulging in invention was "plaything and losing morale", so the Renaissance did not happen in China.

The Renaissance was based on the development of science and technology and the development of the petty bourgeoisie, so it needed economic development to come into being, but there was no such economic foundation at that time.

For various reasons, the Renaissance from the 14th century to the 16th century made Europe a leading region in science and technology. At this time, China gradually fell behind due to political corruption and restrictions on policies such as the ban on the sea. Until the Qing Dynasty, it was completely forced to open the country by European powers, and then created a hundred years of humiliation.

When the Renaissance was going on in Europe, China was at war in the same era, and Zhu Yuanzhang led thousands of troops and horses on the Northern Expedition to destroy the rule of the Yuan Dynasty.

When the Renaissance was carried out in Europe, China was in the Song Dynasty, when China was heavy on agriculture and suppressed commerce, commerce was also very developed, and people were under the influence of Zhu Xi's science and culture.

At that time, China was under the rule of science during the reign of Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty, and then began to implement a sea ban, which gradually derailed from the trend of the world.

Definition: The Renaissance is an intellectual and cultural movement that arose in Italian cities in the 14th century and flourished in Europe in the 15th century.

Significance: It ushered in a period of scientific and artistic revolution and opened the prelude to the history of modern Europe.

Status: Considered the boundary between the Middle Ages and the modern era. Marxist historians consider it to be the dividing line between the feudal era and the capitalist era.

Substance: the revival of classical Greek and Roman culture.

Core idea: humanism.

Significance: First of all, it is the discovery of man.

Second, the Renaissance broke the dominance of religious mysticism, strongly promoted and influenced the Reformation movement, and provided an important boost to this movement.

Third, the Renaissance broke the unity of scholasticism with theology as the core, cleared the way for the emancipation and progress of the mind in the future, and led to the rise of various secular philosophies.

Fourth, feudal privileges were denied.

Fifth, we should dispel superstition and emancipate our minds.

Sixth, the Renaissance created a large number of fascinating and exquisite works of art and literature, which became priceless treasures in the treasury of human art.

Political reasons: The power of the monarchy and the bureaucracy are already very large, and it is difficult to shake the monarchy in a short period of time.

Class reasons: the domestic and foreign circumstances in which the ancient social structure did not produce the "Renaissance" bourgeoisie.

Economic reasons: a stable and self-sufficient agricultural economy, unable to implement the yearning for the spiritual world, and the national policy of "valuing agriculture and suppressing business".

Objective reasons: The indoctrination knowledge system of the Four Books and Five Classics is difficult to produce a diversified talent structure, which was for politics in ancient times.

Subjective reasons: traditional ideology and culture are deep-rooted, the collective has no ideology from top to bottom, the authority of the ancient rulers cannot be questioned or challenged, and it is difficult for the people under the dual confinement of material power and spiritual power to produce the emotional resonance of "humanism".

What is the background of the Renaissance? What are the conditions? The religion of the European Middle Ages actually controlled the political, economic, military, cultural and other aspects, when the Europeans were still in a period of ignorance, the emergence and development of the germination of capitalism, so that people gradually understood science, and then Italy first set off the prelude to the Renaissance, and became more and more intense, and finally made the Europeans get rid of the foolishness of the church!

However, China's feudal system at that time was still solid, and although capitalism was born, it developed extremely slowly under the oppression of the small peasant economy.

In fact, the Renaissance was just a façade to promote the development of capitalist ideas and to oppose the Church and the feudal rulers! The ideology of the Spring and Autumn Period in China and the Warring States Period was mainly aimed at seeking the pacification of the war as soon as possible, and the object of their service was the princes and monarchs, therefore, their moral concepts were good, but they did not represent advanced ideas (here I would like to add that the banner of the Renaissance was the democratic ideas of ancient Greece, which had a certain degree of advanced nature and conformed to the mainstream ideas of capitalism)!

As for Zhu Xi's thoughts and Baguwen, there is no more serious theory of restraint, because they are all products of feudal rulers in order to consolidate their dominance, it can only be said that Zhu Xi started and then strengthened Baguwen in the Ming Dynasty!

The spread and long-term dominance of Confucianism actually led to the impossibility of the Renaissance in China.

This is the poison of feudal thinking.

Ancient Chinese.

If the mind is backward, how can it be revived? Isn't it a step backwards to return to the original feudal mentality? The Western Renaissance was because their ancient culture was progressive.

In fact, there are, such as the New Culture Movement, which is just learning Western culture, not anti-old and re-Confucius.

Because Chinese literature and art were extinct.

At that time, China was still a feudal society.

The Empress Dowager Cixi, who was in power, did not approve of the Hexing Reform.

China will not have a renaissance, China will go to the path of India, the future will really be miserable to see this nation, there will be no national elite, the national culture will die, and the nature of the people will sink permanently.

This is the answer I came up with after watching the recent movie, including that I am not a god X, the mask has been worn for a long time, and the mask has been forgotten for a long time, and the real emotions have been forgotten for a long time, and there will be no more laughter The real immature and stubborn life is the only truth worthy of praise in this country, but because of historical events, they hate optimists.

Despite this, countless optimists will still grow stubbornly.

Because, that's life.

Until the day I was able to escape.

Look at recent movies, look at foreign Chinese-style movies, and you will know whether the country hopes or not, please judge for yourself.

The subject is precious.

In the eighties there were a few signs of the Renaissance.
