Great minds are like a mountain, shaken by wind and rain and surrounded by clouds, but when people breathe there, they are more free and powerful than anywhere else. Pure atmosphere can wash away the filth of the soul; When the dark clouds cleared, he threatened mankind.
I'm not saying that ordinary humans can survive at the peak. But once a year, one of them will bow. There, he can change the breathing in the lungs and the blood flow in the blood vessels, where they will feel closer to eternity. After that, they returned to the vast plain of life, and their hearts were full of courage in their daily battles. -romain rolland
"The rich have the privilege of transcending artistic patents .. They set artistic standards according to their own happiness. Without the poor, art becomes poor and weak. " People who don't work feel much narrower emotions than those who work. There are three kinds of emotions in modern society: pride, lewdness and drowsiness. These three emotions and their branches have caused almost all artistic themes of the rich class. It corrupts the world, makes people decadent and encourages lust. It has become the biggest obstacle to the realization of human welfare. It has no real beauty, is unnatural and insincere, and is an artificial art of meat.
Who's Who is often called "the three turns of the giant", which includes three biographies of Beethoven, Michelangelo and Tolstoy. One is a musician, the other is a sculptor and the other is a writer.
Although they live in different fields, they seek truth and justice in the arduous journey of life and spend their whole lives creating immortal masterpieces expressing truth, goodness and beauty.
Beethoven's music against life written with pain left inexhaustible spiritual food for future generations; Ichiro Milokai created an immortal masterpiece with his life's hard work; Tolstoy described the smallness and greatness of thousands of lives in his novels.
They spread the seeds of love to the world with their works, but they never felt a little fear and trembling about the disasters of life and the suffering of the world. Their heroic attitude is so unruly, like forgiving the waves, like a hurricane, constantly blowing cheerful horns.
They never talk about pain, but in fact, their pain is unimaginable. They firmly believe that as long as their souls can be patient and brave, they will be able to break through the shackles of the body and rush to the lofty realm of life. As Beethoven, the strong man who grabbed the throat of life, told us: "Oh, human, you should strive for self-improvement!" " "
Roman? Roland once said: "I never thought this book (Who's Who) would spread so fast. At that time, millions of French creatures and oppressed idealists were anxiously waiting for the signal of liberation. They heard this signal from Beethoven's music. This book was written by Beethoven, but it retains many images of people who pursue freedom and struggle. He has found his own shadow in it. This booklet, written by an unknown me, came out of an unknown shop and spread among the public within a few days. It no longer belongs to me. " Indeed, this book is not written for learning books, it is just a song that the wounded and suffocated soul thanks to the Lord after being reborn.
Life is hard. For those who are not too mediocre, their life is doomed to be miserable, without glory, without happiness, and they will struggle alone all their lives. Poverty, anxiety and heavy and boring work are oppressing their spirit. They are victims and protesters. From them, they saw the two most colorful flowers in the human spirit-justice and freedom.
These people have experienced long-term suffering: or tragic fate tortured their souls physically and mentally, and tempered their will on the iron plate of poverty and disease; Or the compatriots who suffered nameless humiliation and disaster broke their hearts. They are great because of their perseverance, but it is these sufferings that make them great. So those unfortunate people should not be willing to lament because of the hardships of life. You see the best of mankind walking with you.
Who's Who tells the story of celebrities, but who can guarantee that people around you will not become celebrities admired by everyone, so every celebrity is an ordinary person, but what makes people proud may be their brains, behaviors and so on!
As long as you know how to believe, be strong, be open-minded and trust, you will become a celebrity who cries when you are unconscious.
Reflections on Two Wan Li under the Sea
Jules verne, the author of Two Wan Li under the Sea, is a French science fiction writer in the19th century with amazing imagination. His surprise lies not only in his exaggerated, touching and scientific novels, but also in the stories he wrote in the book. Although this is not surprising today in the 2 1 century, in Verne's era, people have not invented submarines that can swim underwater, and even electric lights have not appeared. In this context, Verne successfully created the submarine Nautilus in two Wan Li under the sea. Twenty-five years after the novel was published, people built a real submarine, similar to that described in the novel. How far-sighted and knowledgeable this is!
In this way, with reverence, I began to take the Nautilus submarine with Junasz, the protagonist of the book, and began his legendary underwater journey. Captain Nemo, the owner of the Nautilus, was a gloomy and learned man. They traveled together in the Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean, Red Sea, Mediterranean Sea, Atlantic Ocean, Antarctic and Arctic Ocean, and saw many rare underwater animals and plants, as well as underwater caves, secret passages and sites, including the famous sunken city Atlantis, an ancient civilization with a history and culture comparable to that of Greece. These books contain a great deal of knowledge about science, culture, geography and geology. O Junasz expressed admiration for Captain Nemo's outstanding talent and knowledge in the voyage. However, in the fascinating story, people are also warned that while seeing that science and technology benefit mankind, they should pay attention to preventing acts that are used by bad people and endanger the human crisis; Put forward the concept of caring for marine life such as seals and whales and condemning indiscriminate killing and fishing. These environmental protection topics, which are still popular today, have been called for by prophets 200 years ago. It can be seen that what leaves a deeper reflection on human justice is to let readers feel colorful adventures and vivid knowledge, and to inspire us to get more books from our hearts.
The subtlety of this book lies in the complete enlightenment of knowledge of nature, although it tells a lot about the ocean. For example, the mucus secreted by a tiny creature called fenugreek in the Red Sea makes the sea water as red as blood. But none of them are deliberate, and none of them are hard for readers to accept. It's just what they saw and heard during a trip, which makes people firmly retain all kinds of ideas and gains born of scenery.
Not every science fiction novel is as readable as Two Wan Li under the Sea. As a novel that is not fabricated out of thin air, but accumulated by foresight and erudition, it not only explains their journey for readers who don't know underwater knowledge in detail, but also shows the wisdom and civilization of the ancients to later generations.
Jules verne (1828.2.8- 1905) was born in Nantes, a western French port city. He lived and studied on Fayed Island by the Lauard River, which was a part of the city until he graduated from middle school. My father is a successful lawyer, and he is bent on his son's inheritance. But Verne loved the ocean since he was a child and longed for sailing and adventure. 1 1 years old, he volunteered to go aboard as an apprentice and sailed to India, only to be found by his family and taken home. For this reason, Verne was severely beaten. He lay in bed with tears and vowed, "I will only lie in bed and fantasize about traveling in the future." Perhaps it was this childhood experience that objectively prompted Verne to gallop in fantasy all his life and create so many famous sci-fi works. Jules verne, the author of Two Wan Li under the Sea, was not only surprised by his exaggerated, touching and scientific novels, but also by the stories he wrote in the book. Although this is not surprising today in the 2 1 century, in Verne's era, people have not invented submarines that can swim underwater, and even electric lights have not appeared. In this context, Verne successfully created the submarine Nautilus in two Wan Li under the sea. Twenty-five years after the novel was published, people built a real submarine, similar to that described in the novel. What kind of foresight is this? Therefore, the fantasies in Verne's works have scientific basis. The scientific fantasy depicted in many of his works has come true today. More importantly, the fantasy in his works is bold and novel, and it is interesting to read with its vivid, vivid and picturesque beauty. His works have thrilling plots, vivid characters and unexpected endings. All these make his works have eternal charm.
Written in 1870, Two Wan Li under the Sea is the second part of Verne's famous trilogy. The first part is Captain Grant's children, and the third part is Mystery Island. This work tells the story of Pierre Aronnax, a French biologist, traveling in the depths of the ocean. This happened in 1866, and a monster thought to be a narwhal was found at sea. He accepted the invitation to join the chase, unfortunately fell into the water during the chase and swam on the monster's back. In fact, this monster is not a narwhal, but a diving boat with wonderful structure. This diving boat was secretly built by Captain Nemo on a desert island in the middle of the ocean. It has a solid hull and uses the ocean to generate electricity. Captain Nemo invited Pierre Aronnax to travel to the bottom of the sea. They set out from the Pacific Ocean, passed through coral islands, the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea, and entered the Atlantic Ocean. They saw many rare marine animals and plants and strange scenes in the water, and experienced many dangers such as stranding, being besieged by indigenous people, fighting with sharks, icebergs blocking roads, octopus attacks and so on. Finally, when the diving boat arrived at the Norwegian coast, Pierre Aronnax left without saying goodbye and announced to the world what he knew about the seabed. Captain Nemo, the hero of the book, is a romantic, mysterious and charming figure. Nemo built a diving boat according to his own design, snorkeling on the seabed for large-scale scientific research, but it seems that this is not the only purpose of his lonely life. He avoided enemies and persecutors, sought freedom at the bottom of the sea, and felt deep sorrow for his lonely life. It was not until the third part of the trilogy that the mystery of this mysterious figure was unveiled. This collection contains all the features of Verne's science fiction. The twists and turns, the tense and confusing storyline, the ever-changing fate of the characters, the rich and detailed scientific knowledge, and the wonderful fantasy with vivid details are all a furnace. The author's originality and ingenious layout sometimes push readers into a dangerous environment, and sometimes bring them into a beautiful realm full of poetry and painting. Magnificent scene description and detailed detail description appear alternately. It's fascinating to read, and you can't stop.
In this way, with reverence, I began to take the Nautilus submarine with Junasz, the protagonist of the book, and began his legendary underwater journey. Captain Nemo, the owner of the Nautilus, was a gloomy and learned man. They traveled together in the Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean, Red Sea, Mediterranean Sea, Atlantic Ocean, Antarctic and Arctic Ocean, and saw many rare underwater animals and plants, as well as underwater caves, secret passages and sites, including the famous sunken city Atlantis, an ancient civilization with a history and culture comparable to that of Greece. Nautilus set out from the Sea of Japan, entered the Pacific Ocean, Oceania, and then reached the Indian Ocean, passing through the Red Sea and Arabian Tunnel, and reached the Mediterranean Sea. The submarine crossed the Strait of Gibraltar, along the coast of Africa, and headed for the South Pole. Then go north along the coast of Latin America, follow the warm current to the North Sea, and finally disappear into the whirlpool on the west coast of Norway. During the submarine journey of nearly ten months, Nautilus sailed slowly at an average speed of 12 km per hour. I feel that I enjoyed the ever-changing wonders of the seabed with Captain Nemo and his "guests". The climax of the whole voyage is repeated: underwater hunting, underwater forest visit, underwater Atlantis ruins visit, Spanish shipwreck treasure salvage, coral kingdom funeral witness, fighting with Okumo, sharks and octopus, fighting back against the siege of indigenous people and so on. These books contain a great deal of knowledge about science, culture, geography and geology. O Junasz expressed admiration for Captain Nemo's outstanding talent and knowledge in the voyage. However, in the fascinating story, people are also warned that while seeing that science and technology benefit mankind, they should pay attention to preventing acts that are used by bad people and endanger the human crisis; Put forward the concept of caring for marine life such as seals and whales and condemning indiscriminate killing and fishing. These environmental protection topics, which are still popular today, have been called for by prophets 200 years ago. It can be seen that what leaves a deeper reflection on human justice is to let readers feel colorful adventures and vivid knowledge, and to inspire us to get more books from our hearts.
The novel appeared "monsters" from the sea, frequently attacking ships of various countries, stirring people's panic until the Nautilus was swallowed up by the Atlantic vortex, and the whole novel was full of suspense and interlocking. I was deeply attracted by this book. During the trip, Captain Nemo and I, as well as tourists, can be said to change with the development of things, sometimes fearful, sometimes relaxed and happy. The subtlety of this book lies in the complete enlightenment of knowledge of nature, although it tells a lot about the ocean. For example, the mucus secreted by a tiny creature called fenugreek in the Red Sea makes the sea water as red as blood. But none of them are deliberate, and none of them are hard for readers to accept. It's just what they saw and heard during a trip, which makes people firmly retain all kinds of ideas and gains born of scenery. Not every science fiction novel is as readable as Two Wan Li under the Sea. As a novel that is not fabricated out of thin air, but accumulated by foresight and erudition, it not only explains their journey for readers who don't know underwater knowledge in detail, but also shows the wisdom and civilization of the ancients to later generations. The whole novel introduces scientific knowledge such as ocean current, fish, shellfish, coral, marine benthos, seaweed, marine biological circulation system, pearl production, etc., and becomes a veritable scientific enlightenment novel.
Remarks: The length unit "Li" in the novel is from French history, and the length varies from province to province, and there are ancient Houli, ancient land-Li and ancient sea. Professor Arona Cox used ancient land in his book, which is about four kilometers. So two Wan Li under the sea is 80,000 kilometers that can circle the earth twice.
& lt& lt Two Wan Li Down to the Sea >> Reaction to a book or an article.
After reading this book again, I still have this wish in my heart, that is, I hope to explore all the secrets of the seabed with Captain Nemo. I hate Professor Pierre Aronnax's good luck.
The story begins with 1866, and a strange thing has caused a lot of trouble in the city. Many ships found sea monsters at sea. Professor Pierre Aronnax, a French biologist, was invited to chase the monster Hu Aizhi, fall into the water, travel around the world with his companions, and finally try his best to return to land.
Writing here, I can't help thinking; & gt and the value of this book is far superior to the former (as far as I am concerned). After all, it is extremely precious to write such a fantasy novel in 1870 and spread it to this day. 135 years, the test of millions of readers in Qian Qian, the passage of time, did not weaken its spirit, but affirmed its value, and I think it stands in the history of literature because of the word "fantasy" that runs through it from beginning to end. Fantasy has been the source of power to promote social development since ancient times. Today, by Jules. All jules verne's fantasies or inferences are based on reality, such as: undersea forests, crossing undersea tunnels (Arabian undersea tunnels, tunnels leading to the Mediterranean under Suez) and sunken land (Atlantic continent). In the future world, all fantasies will come true. Nemo said a long sentence in the middle of < < Sea > > >: "The progress of mankind is really too slow." Fantasy is actually the wings of progress. 100 years ago, people's fantasy became a reality after 100 years, and the exploration is endless!
& lt& lt Sea >> Praise the deep blue country, an epic and magnificent ocean, a carefree and uncontested place with countless corals, algae, fish and minerals. It is a magnificent brocade, which I can't praise or describe in words. Nautilus is an immortal myth in any era. It is it that reveals all the infinite mysteries in the ocean and is the spiritual home of Captain Nemo.
Finally, speaking of Captain Nemo, this mysterious figure adds a lot of color to this book. He can repay tens of billions of national debts for France, see his friends die and cry silently, give millions of gold to the poor, take in all those who hate the land, fill a bag of pearls for the poor pearl pickers, escape from mankind and carry out terrible revenge. He has a deep-rooted distrust of mankind. I have always really liked this kind of genius who died in the world. But I believe he is a kind person.
& lt& lt Two Wan Li Going to the Sea >> It's really a classic, but in modern times, it's rare to see such a classic, and there are many flashy things. What a pity!
Reflections on Who's Who
After reading romain rolland's Who's Who, I was deeply touched. Romain rolland is a famous French writer in the 20th century, and his works are a powerful spiritual pillar for people. Biographies of Beethoven, Michelangelo and Tolstoy. They went through all kinds of hardships, but they didn't give in to fate. They fought tirelessly at the last second of their lives and eventually became great men. This also tells us a truth: difficulties and setbacks are the best tempering of fate and life!
Among the three great men, Beethoven impressed me the most. He loves music and has created many excellent works. His works are profound, magnificent and full of fantasy. But disaster struck him mercilessly. 1802, he realized that his hearing impairment was incurable and would deteriorate quickly. This means that he may never create again! What a blow! But he can stubbornly fight against fate, which may be the reason why he can write so many immortal works in his later period. Irene Brockovich's spirit of life and destiny is exactly what we should learn. This great and unyielding soul makes the dark world shine and gives life hope.
Reading Beethoven's story reminds me of Helen Keller, a person with strong perseverance. Her life is also unfortunate. A serious illness in childhood turned her into a blind, deaf and dumb little girl. In her world, without color and sound, she can't express her thoughts. But the injustice of fate did not make her lose hope. Eager to know everything, she redoubled her efforts and eventually became one of the most influential figures in the19th century.
Beethoven and Helen Keller suffered different hardships in their lives, but they have the same spirit-never give in to fate! This not only made me admire, but also caused me to think deeply. As middle school students in 2 1 century, social competition is more intense. We have more and more homework and more difficulties in learning. In the face of many difficulties and pressures, do we also need this spirit? Yes! When we encounter difficulties and our academic performance drops, let's "re-polish our eyes with Beethoven's light." Face setbacks with firm faith and realize ideals with tenacious perseverance.

Who's Who was written by French writer romain rolland. Three famous people in the world are written in this book. The first is a German composer: Beethoven; The other is a talented Italian sculptor: Michelangelo; The last one is a famous Russian writer: Tolstoy.
In this biography of Who is Beethoven, what moved me most was his story. Beethoven is a musical genius, and his talent was discovered by his father very early. It's a pity that Beethoven's father is not a good father. He asked Beethoven to practice the piano every day, no matter what his mood was, and he worked hard. Sometimes he even put Beethoven and a violin in a room for a whole day and forced him to learn music by violence. Beethoven's childhood was very miserable. His mother died when he was 16 years old, and his father became a profligate alcoholic. These misfortunes weighed on Beethoven's head together, leaving deep scars in his heart, which led to his grumpy and eccentric temper. But Beethoven did not sink because of this. He devoted all his energy to the music career he loved. Thanks to his talent and diligence, he soon became famous. When he was intoxicated with the happiness brought by music, the unfortunate thing happened again: he was deaf. For a musician, the most important thing is his ears, but a great musician who lives on music like Beethoven is deaf, which is unacceptable to ordinary people.
Beethoven's life is tragic and full of disasters, but why did he succeed? Why can he do what normal people can't? This caused me to think deeply. In my opinion, Beethoven's success is due to his perseverance and spirit of struggle. He is fearless in the face of difficulties. This is the secret of his success.
In our daily life, when we encounter difficulties, we often think of asking others for help, instead of directly facing the difficulties and making up our minds to solve them. Beethoven, on the other hand, was eccentric and no one wanted to be friends with him. So in the face of difficulties, he can only fight alone. Although lonely, I have learned something that others can't: as long as I give myself unlimited courage, even the most terrible enemy can be defeated.
Finally, I hope people all over the world can remember Beethoven and live like Beethoven.

The Biography of Who Is Who was written by the famous French writer romain rolland. The works of Beethoven, Michelangelo and Tolstoy were all written in the early 20th century, which had a wide influence at that time and later. In these three biographies, romain rolland didn't stick to the trivial textual research of the master's life, nor did he trace back their creative process in general. Instead, we firmly grasp the similarities between these three artists and their respective fields, and strive to describe their long-term suffering and pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty. Romain rolland called them "heroes" and wrote with touching pen and ink their lofty courage to fight against fate and great feelings to bear the suffering of all mankind, which can be said to be another "heroic symphony" of ours.
As early as 1930s and 1940s, the famous translator Mr. Fu Lei translated Whose Biography into Chinese. First-class propagandist, first-class author and first-class translator made this work quickly become a classic, and it is still deeply loved by readers. The first half of the 20th century was a turbulent and painful period in human history. Romain rolland wrote "Whose Biography" and Mr. Fu Lei translated "Whose Biography", all by feeling, in order to learn the strength of survival and the courage to fight from the lives of these great men. Mr. Fu Lei said, "When the whole sky is shrouded in gloom", the inspiration he got from Who's Who is: "Only real suffering can drive away the suffering of romantic Dick's fantasy; Only by overcoming the heroic tragedy of suffering can we help us bear the cruel fate; Only by holding the spirit of' who will go to hell if I don't go to hell' can we save a depressed and selfish nation ... "
So, for today's readers, what can the biography of Who give us? In an era when material life is extremely rich and spiritual life is relatively poor, and in a society where people avoid the sublime and bid farewell to the sublime, Whose Biography may give us more embarrassment, because the lives of these giants are like a mirror, which shows our meanness and smallness. We would rather praise their works than feel the greatness of their personality. Romain rolland said at the end of the biography of Michelangelo that a great soul is like a mountain. "I'm not saying that ordinary human beings can survive at the peak. But once a year, they should go up and bow. There, they can change the breathing in the lungs and the blood flow in blood vessels. There, they will feel closer to eternity. In the future, they will return to the vast plains of life, and their hearts are full of courage in daily fighting. " For our time, this is really a stone.
"Who's Who" is a good proof of an old saying in China: People who have achieved great things in ancient and modern times are not only talented, but also determined to persevere. Beethoven's "Seeking refuge in sadness and forbearance", Michelangelo's "The more I suffer, the more I like it" and Tolstoy's "I cry, I suffer, I just want the truth" all show that a great life is an endless battle. Our times are ever-changing and full of opportunities. We are eager for success, but we don't want to struggle. What we want is to become famous overnight. Impetuousness and quick success may make us achieve short-term achievements, but we must never be among the immortals of mankind. Therefore, reading Who's Who may sober us up.
four
Good heart, love and freedom are above everything else. Even for the throne, I will never betray the truth. "-Beethoven
"The more painful, the more I like it." Michelangelo
"I cry, I suffer, I just want to know the truth"-Tolstoy
Who's Who describes the spiritual strength and beauty of three great artists of different times and nationalities. They are Beethoven, a great German musician in the19th century, Michelangelo, a famous Italian sculptor in the Renaissance, and Tolstoy, a great Russian literary master. They wrote their lofty courage to fight against fate and their great feelings to bear the suffering of all mankind, so that we can get close to the great personalities of heroes with our hearts and feel their long-term suffering in pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty.
Who's Who well proves an old saying of China people: Those who have achieved great things in ancient and modern times must have perseverance and extraordinary talents. Romain rolland firmly grasped the similarities between these three artists and their respective fields, and began to restore the lofty humanitarian tradition of 20th century literature and their colorful characters. Beethoven's tortuous life, from the glory he enjoyed for an instant to the poverty at the bottom of his life, from the suffering of his childhood to the pursuit of happiness in his later years, is just like what Roman Roland described as "a life like a thunderstorm". From this, I realized that Beethoven had been struggling with fate and thoughts. Although he gives people a sense of arrogance, his inner weakness and strength can't be tapped by people who don't know him. His passion for writing perfect songs, his persistence in seeking happiness, and his persistence in perfect meeting make his life a natural force; The battle between a primitive force and the rest of nature produced Homer's epic spectacle. He created happiness with his own suffering, and "taking pleasure in suffering" was enough to condense his life. Michelangelo, isn't he? "He has the strength, he was born to fight, to conquer, and he also conquered-he doesn't want to win. This is not what he expected. " He is a spiritual aristocrat and a genius, but he is troubled by genius, and even his spirit and mind are powerless. This crazy excitement exists in a terrible life that is too weak physically and mentally to control. It can be seen that his life is sacred and painful, but he believes that as long as his soul can endure and resolutely, and does not blindly sink into suffering, it will certainly break through the spiritual bondage. In the struggle and abandonment, he spent his whole life creating immortal masterpieces expressing truth, goodness and beauty. Tolstoy, the great Russian soul shining with flames on the earth, soothed people's stars in the dusk at the end of 19. With his powerful pen, he wrote works that let us follow Tolstoy's contradictory experience step by step. In addition to the darkness of the society at that time, these works describe the belief in God, who persistently spread the seeds of love to the world with the pen tip. I deeply realized that he insisted on faith and wrote life for truth and justice.
Yes, Beethoven, Michelangelo and Tolstoy are all conquerors of the world. We appreciate the works created by their genius, just as we appreciate the great achievements of our ancestors, and we no longer want to hear their blood. This is undoubtedly an embarrassing thing for us, because the lives of these giants are like a mirror, reflecting our meanness and smallness. We would rather praise their works than feel the greatness of their personality. No, great souls are like mountains, where we will get more enlightenment. Who's Who is like writing us a symphony of heroes. The enlightenment we get from this is that everyone will suffer and suffer disasters. It is better to work hard than to complain about others. We should not worship great men, but learn from the greatness of great men's personality and make our life full of meaning. We should not rely on impetuousness and quick success, but should stick to our faith, truth and justice and make ourselves immortal.
As long as we realize that "Whose Biography" has sublimated our hearts, let the hero's blood appear in front of us and let the hero's red flag fly above our heads, we will gradually feel that in this society where people avoid the sublime, bid farewell to the sublime and settle for mediocrity, our soul has also sublimated into a kind of sublime.
