The citizens who participated this time are amazing 😍

The three citizens advance in time .

• @edwardeedee From day to night, write about the changes and tolerance of the Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, the text is very charming.
• @xianlaiyiju Starting from the opportunity of climbing Qianling Mountain, we climbed the scenic spot step by step and descended the mountain step by step with the pictures and texts. The writing is sometimes humorous, sometimes historical, like following a funny and knowledgeable tour guide.
• @玉晨晨 also started the journey of Lumbini in the past . When it comes to the history of Korean temples, the impression of Lumbini and the birth of Buddha, I feel that the world is unpredictable.

A citizen advances with space.

• @尤蜜荟Starting from the periphery of Nongchan Temple, we walked to the core of the temple. Nongchan Temple is so beautiful!

Finally, it is my selfish favorite prose, @The person who cooks snowZhuxueDeren.ethA visit to Arashiyama , when we feel that things are wrong, should we accept the present or cherish the past.

📒 Feelings of reading

When Benjamin commented on Proust, he used a beautiful analogy: Proust is weaving his own memories of the past. The ancient Romans called the fabric text, which also means text. Benjamin went on to contrast Proust's writing with Penelope's fabric. Husband Odyssey was tricked by a beautiful woman to fight in Troy. Penelope stayed alone for 20 years. In the face of many suitors, she came up with a delay strategy, saying that she would knit a shroud for her husband. , wait for the husband to come back. (This chastity story is so absurd that Margaret Atwood couldn't help rewriting it) Proust is different, he writes (fabric) at night when no one is there, trying to capture the forgotten fragments that emerge in dreams, busy with world affairs during the day, and constantly forgetting (remove the stitches).

Last Sunday, I finished reading "The Seeker" in one sitting at a coffee shop near Guting. After reading the last quarter, I really wanted to know the ending. I was afraid that my boyfriend would urge him to catch up. The last time I read in such a hurry was Woolf's "Lighthouse Row". It happened that Guo Qiangsheng's postscript also mentioned Wu Erfu. The protagonist in the book, the tuner, was originally at peace, until he met Lin Sang, got acquainted, and became a business partner (or partner), and he began to recall the process. Can't let go of the piano enlightenment - the emotion of a pianist, ah, it turns out that forgetting is not letting go. People may not really forget, but do not want to remember. The road to reconciliation is so long, it takes a tuner to fly from Taiwan to New York, from Taiwan to New York. From the center of New York to the piano factory on the border, we only learned his name from Lin Sang's mouth when he lost control and smashed the abandoned piano with a hammer.

Woolf was 45 when Lighthouse Row was published, and her mother died when she was 13. I forgot where I read that when Woolf was young, the core story of the novel was in her head, and I wondered if she had been wanting to write it all these years, but couldn't do it? It was not until the double years had passed and the first ten years of life had been completely forgotten before I started writing. Guo Qiangsheng was 56 years old when he published "The Seeker", and he was shining in the literary world at the age of 21. Is it possible that after nearly twice the age, he can finally forget the expectations he shoulders, interweave dreams, life and memories, and write novels The pinnacle of beauty?

Difficulty in personal memory, difficult in group memory. Finally finished reading Huang Chongkai's "The Spring and Autumn of Literature". It is a skill textbook. It is impeccable in the selection of narrative, tone, collage and historical materials. Beneath these skills is the imagination of Taiwanese groups' memories, from the love affairs officer who monitored Nie Hualing to Zhong Li. And relatives in China, to Keqihua, which is outlined in Dixon's phrases, this way of writing, even if I am not familiar with the history of Taiwanese literature, I can read it with pleasure. However, what can you do if you know Taiwan's art history? What is the meaning of collective memory? I have no clue since I read it during the Japanese occupation period. Perhaps, just like the project went wrong, everyone would go to the minutes of the meeting, our identity was forced to be ambiguous, so we turned to history, like the fecal realism debate during the Japanese occupation (1940s), to the local literature debate (1970s) , behind the accumulated emotions and confusion of the times.

"The Spring and Autumn of Literature" paints the most beautiful painting in every era, while Lai Xiangyin paints the living beings behind the protagonist. She wrote in the postscript to "White Portrait": "If the person being painted has no obvious color, and has not suffered great suffering, but only has limited perception and limited action in the vast white background, and lives a mediocre life... Such he/she has Is it necessary to paint?” After digesting history, she lived in all living beings, underestimating the importance of life, and it became difficult for her personal and collective memories to come together. Due to the lack of relevant knowledge of white terror, I listened to Zhu Youxun online about how accurate Lai Xiangyin's writing was for the times (a lecture organized by the New Taiwan Peace Foundation). He said the characters in the books were real and made him suspect that they were real.

In the first short story "Mr. Qingzhi", Lai Xiangyin wrote about the taste. First, the dish is red in the snow. Mr. Qingzhi and his wife couldn't guess where the dish came from. After asking Lao Luo, a native of the school from other provinces, they learned that when it snowed in northern China, the bitter greens looked purple-red and purple-red. It is red in the snow. After this dish came to Taiwan, it was changed to mustard greens, and there is almost no snow in Taiwan. Of course, I don’t know where the red came from. Second, during the family gathering of Mrs. Qingzhi, Uncle Jiancheng and Mr. Qingzhi were chatting in the yard. Uncle said that he was about to cry when he ate the fried rice noodles from his sister (that is, his wife): "Aunt Ruan's cooking is exactly the same, alas, I am here. A naive girl..." The novel doesn't focus much on my mother, we can only deduce from subtle clues, Mr. Qingzhi was a teacher during the martial law period, and there was a teacher in the school like a secret police, and Uncle Jiancheng probably didn't trust the government , and then privately asked Mr. Qingzhi if the government had voted. The most interesting thing is that "Han", and Mr. Qingzhi's reaction after listening to it, he was stunned for a while before he came to his senses: Did my mother die because of political persecution like February 28? Zhu Youxun said that the novel did not give clues.

I am reminded of an essay "Carrot Cake" by Lin Wenyue. She recalled that when she was a child, her family moved indefinitely. She didn’t eat Ningbo rice cakes during Chinese New Year in Shanghai, and she didn’t eat mirror cakes during Chinese New Year in Tokyo. They all ate Taiwanese carrot cake, her mother’s hometown dish. Until she got married, she learned the flavor of her husband's hometown, Teochew-style carrot cake, through her husband's dictation, and was even more loved by her children, so she mixed the practices of her mother's family and her husband's family. Memories of something warm and unforgettable.”
