When Sima Qian wrote about the struggle between Chu and Han in the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it was already 70 years after the incident, which was forbidden in the knowledge sharing, so that the knowledge sharing people were alert to know that their conduct would be recorded here. I believe this is the role of writing.
Volume 4 Violence and Loneliness 1
From the secular point of view, especially in Chinese culture, the word violence has never been a good word. If you notice that modern or modern western beauty will find a familiar term, it is the beauty of violence. What does the beauty of violence mean in painting and drama? I think this is the starting point of violence and loneliness.
After the Second World War, Francis Bacon FranisBan, a British painter, painted some pictures in his paintings, but he felt that the human bodies were squeezing each other as if trying to recruit the other side to oppress or abuse each other. The tension of pulling Bacon’s human bodies was endless, and figurative things were expressed. Watching Francis Bacon’s paintings was an aggressive or cruel force. This force was very impressive, but it was not clear that it was necessary to achieve the true meaning, but it was a kind of relief and release from the pictures. It was a combination of violence and beauty.
The word Aesheis beauty of violence does not express the appearance of beauty, and the foreskin contains different dimensions of human nature. It is a part of human nature to test violence, so it has become an important issue to be considered, observed and expressed in Miri, Malaysia.
Before Bacon, around the 1920s, many German expressionist painters tended to be violent and beautiful, and the pictures were often explosive, with very strong visual anxiety and anxiety, which were all included in the category of violent beauty.
Latent violence
We have always thought that art is good for love and nurture. I remember when I was a child, I participated in a painting competition. The winner told me that it is very kind of you to draw. After listening to it, I felt ambivalent. I found that I was not always good for love and nurture when I was painting. I seemed to be looking for myself to expose myself in conflict. It seems that it is a unified conceptual view of beauty.
The meaning of modern beauty is expanding more and more. It is not a dream, gentle and beautiful expression, but the greatest impact of human nature. At the same time, it is German expressionism. At the same time, it is the French Fauvism who once exhibited in Taiwan Province. Matisse is this school of painters. He painted many strokes with great impact and color, as if to scream for a bottom-level happy yearning. All these are related to us to talk about violent beauty.
After the Second World War, the beauty of violence played a very important role in the field of western beauty. In the sixties, Adolph AnninAraud, the founder of the French cruel theater hearedelaCruaue, collided with many human elements in the small theater stage, causing horror and shock in the theater. The concept of drama expression is very different. Up to now, the expression of cruel theater still has great influence in western theaters. For example, Bi Na Bausch, a German modern dancer, has been to Taiwan Province.
Bi Na Bausch partly continued the brutal theater in the 1970s. She danced from a very high place to a performance and then from a higher place. She has been challenging the audience to be shocked by the physical difficulty of dancing on the stage.
When I was a child, I loved to watch the circus. I remember that an animal trainer of Shen Changfu Circus put his head in the lion’s mouth in order to let the audience know that the lion had been tamed. At that moment, I actually had a terrible idea that I wanted the lion to bite it. At that time, I was still very young, and I dreamed that the lion really bit it that night. I dare not say that it was a subconscious fear of sexual violence, which would make people in a state of excitement. I think there should be a strange and violent beauty hidden in our bodies, which we dare not expose and make it disappear as we grow up.
If you watch circus performers, you will know that the flying man is the most difficult if he doesn’t put on a performance, and the performance will often make the performance tickets sell very well that day. What those people intend to see is to see themselves in a safe state and let others represent you in the greatest danger of your life. We watch the extreme performance of high-bounce racing by watching him take risks and vent his subconscious violent tendencies.
The topic of beauty of violence is definitely not simple. In 1999, Freud published a dream analysis. He thought that sex is the greatest repression of human beings. Many erotic activities in the subconscious will become themes and dream themes, but he forgot one thing. Violence is also repression of human beings. When people live like animals in the wilderness, the most violent people will become leaders. When we see the national body wearing fierce animal fangs, it means that he has recruited this animal. He is a tribal hero. These fangs are just showing his violence.
I went to the Zou people in Alishan to watch the Harvest Festival. During the ceremony, they would carry a tied pig and let each warrior stab a knife to show that the ceremony was completed. People on the side felt sad because the pig was not able to resist, but this ceremony was the earliest.
It’s not a domesticated pig, but a Spanish bullfighter who collides with a wild boar. Isn’t this violence?
We call it violence now, but in the tribal times it implies the noble sentiment of the earliest value of human life. Tribal leaders all become leaders because of violence. He can tear a boar’s limbs with both hands and defeat a lion or tiger with his bare hands. The process is absolutely bloody. In the bloody picture, the tribe worships the successful leader.
So when leaders enter the era of gentle upbringing, where is this hidden violence?
Humans are in the dark.
In fact, the beauty of violence hides an interesting role change problem. A few years ago, a terrorist incident occurred in Washington, USA. People shot at the street and everyone dared not go to the door. This was a violent incident. The media condemned the violence, but when we noticed that the background of the murder was actually a hero of the Persian Gulf War, that is to say, when he killed people in Iraq, he was encouraged to kill legally. The more he killed, the more medals he won. When he returned to his own country, he became an illegal murderer. Should violence be encouraged or feared?
I think we can divide violence into two types, one is legal violence and the other is illegal violence. We are all encouraging legal violence, but we encourage soldiers to kill the enemy in the battlefield.
After the war, he returned to the ordinary life and deserved to continue his life. This issue was discussed during the Vietnam War. In the 1970s, film director Francis Ford Coppola FranisFrdCppla and Apocalypse Now ApalypseNw were also discussing the role transformation of violent beauty. According to Conrad JsephCnrad’s novel Dark Heart Heart, the novel was actually a virtual battlefield to explore human beings. Coppola changed to Vietnam in the dark and violent part to achieve a great epic film in modern times.
One of the amazing scenes is that Wagner’s opera was accompanied by a helicopter to carry out the massacre, which is a classic and impressive. It is a very amazing beauty of violence, and you will not know whether it is violence or not in an instant. The American bomber became emperor at that moment. Do you tell him about violence at this time? He won’t think it is violence, but it is a great drama.
The entanglement of violent beauty originated very early in human history. We heard the story of the tyrant Nero Claudius Caesar Nero Claudius Scesar, who was the last emperor of Rome. I think he was an artist, an emperor with personality, and he was keen on entertainment and acting. His last thing was to set fire to the city of Rome. In history, he was regarded as a tyrant and a crazy emperor, but he cast a very ambiguous opinion on violent beauty. The question whether you would burn a city is a human nature. Challenge I believe that in our culture, especially in the end of knowledge, we dare not talk about the nature of violence naked. In the process of our growth, this part has become the biggest taboo, but this does not mean that we have never yearned for the beauty of violence.
Violence is transformed into beauty
I don’t know if you haven’t been exposed to the underworld, the gang world
I’ve never been in a gang, but I’ve always been like this since I was a child. Some friends will ask me that no one bullies you. When I meet people covered in tattoos in the fifth grade, I will think that they are great and loyal, and they will always protect me. I feel that they are better in junior high school. When they meet in the market, they will give me a big piece of meat or a large handful of vegetables. Every time my mother asks me who will give it to me, she is afraid to tell the truth.
Gangs are outside my upbringing, and I vaguely feel that there is an amazing ceremony in them. Occasionally, they reveal their loyalty to their brothers, and I find it very touching. This sentiment is that you can’t find such violence in political intrigue. What do you think?
We all know who is in the gang in the middle school class, whether it is the Zhulian gang or the Four Seas gang. From the whisper, we will know who has been stabbed in the ass. This kind of thing is especially easy for teenagers. I believe it is connected with something in the subconscious. Teenagers’ bodies have just developed, and their desire for violence will erupt. That is, human beings can protect their physical fitness in the wilderness, and the genetic legacy of ethnic groups will never disappear in modern people. Today, our morality divides violence into bad and wrong, so a great sentiment becomes a prohibited behavior in the society.
Jia Pingwa, a Shaanxi family, misses wolves. It is an interesting novel. He said that many wolves in Shaanxi will come to eat wolves at any time. All kinds of schemes will eat the baby’s insides when the mother is not looking. He will pretend to be an adult hind leg and set up a night watchman’s shoulder. When he turns around, he bites the wolf. Many people say that they agree that the hero is a wolf hunter. Later, there are fewer and fewer wolves. The central government sent several environmental experts to code the wolf number 15, leaving 15 wolves to advocate the protection of wolves, and the wolf slaying hero will become murder.
This is a great novel, in which we know what brutality is. Our contradiction lies in that once a person loses brutality, it will be perfect human nature. On the contrary, people lose their vitality, and the progress of barbarism may not protect violence at the same time, but turn violence into beauty. I believe it is an important process of violent loneliness.
Satisfy the desire for violence
In the world of teenagers, all behaviors can be violent, because his physical development is very vigorous, but his mental maturity can’t control this force. He feels as if his body is going to do something, and he has to let his hands and feet do those things to feel his heart. In Paris, I saw many special plans for teenagers, who are playing and doing all kinds of high-risk activities there, and when they see people, they will not hesitate to give their hands. If they don’t do this, they may fight and make trouble. This is actually helping them turn violence into beauty.
Have you ever seen a racing car? It’s really violent. Why don’t people ban this activity? It’s probably because they understand that the development of human culture is two poles for violence. You hope it doesn’t exist and you don’t want it to really disappear. Try it. Your child doesn’t vent his violent impulses at all and doesn’t want to challenge difficult and dangerous things at all. Will you be worried? I mean, the dilemma of violence lies in how we let a life know that violence is not absolutely good or bad. He must develop his own cognitive process of violence so that he can control the potential violence in his heart.
At present, there are two grading standards for film, one is sexual pornography and the other is violence. These two are definitely two taboos for human beings, that is, what human beings want and dare not want is not sexual. Do you think it is good? Do you think that sex is not good? This will always lead to sexual harassment by perverts, but your husband or your son have no sexual desire. You will probably find it troublesome, too. We rarely think about such a bipolar problem, which is likely to cause controversy, but the bipolar problem will be difficult, and this problem should be discussed more.
There are more and more opportunities for sex to be discussed, but violence has not been tried to cover it up because it is easy to be immoral and barbaric. I believe that violence is closely related to life, which is a very complicated problem. Earlier, when I was a child, I saw the circus experience, and many performances in the circus were violent. What did violence satisfy?
Many people have seen the shadow of violence, right? What do you mean, the shadow of violence is not included in the restricted shadow, but it is violence. In fact, it is not in the Titanic’s stirring up the boat, and it is also a kind of violence for people to cry disaster in extremely tragic situations. Why am I?
We have to spend money on tickets to watch the disaster, and we also demand that the more real it is, the better it will satisfy our subconscious desire for violence. Although the human culture has gone to anti-violence and violent films have never disappeared, the disaster films have always been there. We still watch the San Francisco earthquake and shoot it again and again to see what the huge King Kong has crushed the new york building.
One question mark after another, you can ask yourself that self-nature will turn into voyeurism, and violence will also turn into voyeurism, which is the channel for us to peek at violence. But voyeurism will let us touch a little bit. After the twentieth century, people can calmly face the issue of the beauty of violence and gradually touch the core. When violence is raised to the level of beauty, it is the least dangerous state. Whether it is sex or violence, it is the most dangerous state when it is suppressed. Public discussion can be transformed. It may be that violence has become racing wrestling or the streets of Paris have legalized violence for teenagers.
Legal and illegal violence
In the previous example, when the hero fought bravely in the Persian Gulf battlefield and returned to the United States to continue killing, he became a thug. Whether it is illegal to kill or illegal to kill Americans involves violence.
If the battlefield sharpshooter is still alive, people living in Washington will feel uneasy because they don’t know where he is or who a victim is. He murdered people who he didn’t know. This is violence.
It’s easier to discuss the motivation when trying to force a specific object. Anti-violence is violence for the sake of violence.
Just as Sima Qian talked about the theme of chivalry, he said that chivalry was forbidden to hold weapons or use force to commit taboos. People called the chivalrous government afraid of chivalry. The central government vigorously eliminated chivalry in Qin and Han Dynasties. Chivalrous people thought that the cleanest school that was eliminated among the 90 schools in China was Mohism, which was the predecessor of chivalry, because Mohism was a combative person. He founded a school for heaven, a school that robbed the rich and helped the poor, and became the most important source of chivalry.
The central government trains troops to protect legal violence by law. I train people to fight at the end of my order. I think I can beat people and slaughter people. I think it is legal for me to slaughter people. However, Xia does not abide by the laws of the central government. He can even act in violation of the central order. Qin Huang or Han Wudi once killed Xia.
Today, we are very fond of the word chivalry. In fact, from another angle, chivalry is that at that time, the registration of Class A self-protection was moved to the capital by Emperor Hanwu of the Qin Dynasty. They know that it is very dangerous for this kind of people to be placed in the people, and it is very dangerous to move the chivalrous capital to successfully eliminate the chivalrous power. It is the most dangerous thing for chivalrous people to be placed in the rivers and lakes, but it is not dangerous after editing. This is the practice of Central Cong. Today, it is to get help from the underworld. It is no exception at all times and at home and abroad.
Volume 4 Violence and loneliness
Subversion of human nature
Watching the American godfather’s film, you will know that violence is far more complicated than we thought. It is definitely not just a few hooligans fighting. The godfather is wandering in the legal and illegal foreskin, including members of Congress. Can you imagine that he can do what Kennedy’s shooting has failed to solve? We can’t imagine how powerful the underworld is behind it.
