In the literary reform movement in the late Qing Dynasty, in which article did Liang Qichao emphasize the social role of novels?

On the Relationship between Novels and Group Governance

People who want a new country must first introduce a novel of a new country. Therefore, if you want new morality, you must have new novels; If you want a new religion, you must have a new novel; If you want new politics, you must have new novels; If you want new customs, you must have new novels; If you want to learn new skills, you must learn new novels; Even if you want a new heart and a new personality, you must create a new novel. Why? Novels have incredible power to dominate human nature.

Today I want to ask: Why do people love other books less than novels? The answer must be: it is easy to solve problems with its shallowness, and it is fun and interesting. Yes, of course.

Although, just doing the best is not enough. Easy to understand, no need for novels; Letters from ordinary women and children, red tape, it is not difficult for readers to save. Who cares about them? Anxiety is the only thing. A talented and knowledgeable person can read tombs and study insects, fish and plants. He should have no choice but to read ancient and simple words. Why does he indulge in novels? The first thing to say is. There are many people who enjoy pleasure in the novel, but these people are not very important to the world. The most popular ones are those that can be shocked and sad, and those that will have endless nightmares and tears when reading. Husband loves this because he wants to have fun, but what is it to suffer from this inverse ratio? This is the second thing to say. There are two reasons why I meditate in poverty: human nature is often self-satisfied with the status quo; And this stupid body, the realm it can touch and accept, is stubborn and limited; Therefore, I often want to be directly moved by it, but I am indirectly moved by it. The so-called body outside the body is also outside the world. This kind of knowledge is not only beneficial to all beings, but also beneficial to all beings. And those who guide it and make it plain and profitable are no worse than novels. Novels often guide people to swim in other realms and change the air they often contact and accept. This is a ... People's constant feelings, in the imagination they embrace, in the realm they read, often have people who don't know what they are doing, but just don't pay attention. Whether it is for mourning, happiness, resentment, anger, love, fear, worry and shame, if you know what it is, you don't know why; I want to describe its situation, but my heart can't tell me, my mouth can't tell me, and my pen can't tell me. Someone how to tell the whole story, completely exposed, then amaze yue:

Very good, very good! If so! The so-called "master's words, I care very much."

Very touching, that's all. The second is. These two are the essence of the article, as well as the power of the pen and tongue. If you can recognize this article and guide it, whatever it is, it will be enough to move people's hearts. Among all the articles, the novel is the one that can be extremely wonderful and skillful. Therefore, novels are the best in literature! From the former, idealistic novels are still lacking; Judging from the latter, realistic novels are still lacking. Although there are many kinds of novels, none of them are beyond the scope of these two schools.

There are four kinds of forces that restrict the humanity of novels: one is smoking, and people who smoke are roasted by them, such as those who are close to ink, and those who are so-called "lost in knowledge and turned into wisdom" in Leng Ga Jing rely on this kind of power. People unconsciously read a novel, but their eyes are fascinated by it, their brains are shaken by it, and their nerves are paying attention to it. Today becomes one or two things, tomorrow becomes one or two things, in a twinkling, intermittently. With the passage of time, the field of this novel entered its platform and became the seed of a special essence. Because of this seed, it will touch the recipients even more in the future. If it is smoked, the seeds will flourish and smoke to others. Therefore, seeds can spread all over the world. Everything in the world is created by all living beings, so life is all karma. And the novel is so majestic that it can manipulate all beings. Second, immersion, smoking and space, so the size of its power, the width of its border; Immersed in time, so its strength depends on the length of its boundary. People who are immersed in it are also immersed in it. When people read a novel, they often cannot forget it for days or decades.

People who read The Red Chamber will have more love and sadness. People who watch the outlaws of the marsh will be more impatient. What is this? The power of immersion also made it. This is a masterpiece, the more volumes and facts, the more people are immersed in it! Such as wine: drink for ten days and get drunk for a hundred days. My Buddha started under the bodhi tree, and he said that there is such a big "Hua Yan", which is also the reason. Three words: stab, stab, and stimulate. The power of fumigation and soaking, gradual use; The power of thorns, take advantage of this meal. The power of fumigation and soaking is making the recipient feel unconscious; The power of the thorn makes the receiver suddenly feel it. People who stab will suddenly feel strange and can't control themselves in an instant.

And ... I am kind and gentle, but I have read Snowy Days by Lin Chong and Pue by Song Wu Feiyun. Why am I suddenly angry? Originally, I was happy, but after seeing Qingwen leave the Grand View Garden, Daiyu died in Xiaoxiang Pavilion. Why did I suddenly cry? I am in awe of this, but I am reading the piano, appreciating treasures, sleeping in Dongtang and visiting Cui. Why do I suddenly feel very moved? If it is, it's called excitement. Generally speaking, the more sensitive the brain is, the faster and more intense the stimulation will be.

And it must be proportional to the scale of the stimulus contained in the book. When Zen is drunk, everyone uses this stimulating power to measure others. This power is also useful, and words are not as good as words.

However, the power of language cannot be extensive and long, so we have to beg for the spirit of words. In writing, classical Chinese is not as good as its proverb, and Zhuang theory is not as good as its fable, so the most powerful one is not the ending of the novel!

Fourth, it is worth mentioning that the power of the first three is from the outside; The power of lifting, from the inside out, is the best of Buddhism. Anyone who reads a novel will always be the owner of his book.

People who read "Wild Sou Exposes Words" will write Chen Su by themselves; People who read "The Story of the Stone" will draw up their own Jia Baoyu; Those who watch "Flower and Moon Scar" must draw a self-portrait of Han's infatuation with beads; Those who read the water margin will draw their own black whirlwind as monks; Although the reader argues that there is nothing in it, I don't believe it. Since my husband turned his body into a book, when he read this book, he was no longer mine. He was completely in this world and entered another world. The so-called Huayan Pavilion, the emperor network, a hole of a trillion lotus, a thousand disasters at a glance, moving words. So far! However, if the owner of my book is Washington, the reader will become Washington; Take the master.

If it is broken, the reader will become Napoleon; If the master is Sakyamuni and Confucius, then the reader will be transformed into Sakyamuni and Confucius, which is beyond doubt. The only way to live in the world, has this ever happened? These four forces can be Lu Mou I, full of poison, ethics and morality, the leader can establish a religion, and the politician can organize a political party, which is not bad. If a writer can get one, he is a writer; There can be a fourth one, Wen Sheng. If you make good use of these four forces, you can benefit hundreds of millions of people; If these four forces are used in evil, they can be poisoned for thousands of years. However, the novels are the easiest to be published by the four major forces. Lovely novel! Awesome novel!

Novels are as easy for everyone as others, and so are those who are sensitive to their use. Therefore, the universality of human beings is not as good as novels, which is a natural function of psychology, and it is easy without human resources. This is a true portrayal of all the people in the world, not the people in Chixian County, China. My husband is addicted, and the whole world is addicted. Then the novels are in a group, as air as millet. You can't avoid it if you want to. If you want to screen, you can't chew it. Here, if the air contains filth and the millet contains toxicity, then people who eat and rest here will be haggard, wilted, miserable and degenerate, which is not up to the tortoise. If we don't purify the air here and choose millet, we will be tempted by ginseng and fesr every day, but people in this group will never be redeemed because of old age, illness, death and suffering. Knowing this meaning,

Then we can know the root cause of China's collective corruption control. Where did my China people's idea of becoming the top scholar come from? Novel also, my China beauty wit's thoughts? Novel also; Where did the idea of China Jianghu thieves come from? Novel also; Why do I China shemale's ideas of witchcraft, fox and ghost come from? So is the novel. If so, how do you taste a person, lift his ear and teach him, and pass it on to teach him? All these ideas must be in one place, from the childishness of children to the knowledge of masters. Don't do it, if you still do it. The power of hundreds of novels directly or indirectly poisons people, so it is even worse. that is

There are people who can't read novels, and these novels have gradually collapsed into society and become a trend; It has inherited this legacy before it was born; Not only did I join the WTO, but I also suffered from this infection again. Although there are wise men, they cannot extricate themselves, so they are called contacts. Today, my people are confused about the future, their fate, their divination and their blessing. Because of geomantic omen, they stop railways, stop mining, compete for graves, kill people like grass, spend millions of dollars every year to meet the gods, waste time and trouble and consume national strength, saying that it is only because of novels. Today, my national Mukherjee is in a state of despair, prostration and shameless, but I think it will be easy to spend ten years in fireflies and snow.

It's almost to the point of arrogance and extravagance, and it's just a novel to prevent sweeping the floor in honor.

Today, our people despise faith, which is deceptive in strategy and cruel in calm thinking. They are trained to do anything, and the whole country is full of thorns, saying that novels are the only reason. Today, our people are frivolous, indulging in debauchery, loving in bed, crying in spring flowers and autumn moon, grinding their youthful and lively spirit; Children, from 15 to 30 years old, take affection, sentimentality, troubles and diseases as their main occupations. They are affectionate and righteous, and they are rare. They even say that they are immoral and toxic to society, and that they are just novels. Today, heroes of our country's greenwood can be seen everywhere. Every day there is the worship of Taoyuan, and there is the alliance of Liangshan everywhere. The so-called "big bowl of wine, big pieces of meat, weighing gold and silver, wearing clothes" and other concepts flooded the minds of the lower classes, becoming brothers, becoming broadswords, dying like the boxer, falling into Beijing, calling in foreign troops and saying it was just a novel. Oh! The trap of the novel drowned people, even so! Even so! The tens of thousands of words of Great Sage Hongzhe are not enough, and Jia Yishu of Huashifang is corrupt.

There is a spare! The more things despised by refined gentlemen, the more they have to be exclusively owned by Hua Shifang Jia. And its nature, its status, like air, like grass, is something that can't be avoided and screened in a society, so Fang Jia petrified, and then grasped the sovereignty of a country and manipulated it.

Oh! If we die here for a long time, can we ask about the future of our country? May I ask?

Therefore, if we want to improve group governance today, we must start with the revolution in the novel world! If you want a new person, you must start with a new novel!
