一篇ISSUE "the best way to understand the character of a society is to examine the character of the men and women that society chooses as its heroes or its heroines." Thestatement leads us to a unique way of looking into a society, which I believethat it is partly true. Heroes or Heroines chosen by the society must possess certain characteristics which correspondently fulfill theexpectation of the society at the time and, represent some sort of ability thatmost people lack of, and therefore overcome the negative traits of it race existedsince long time ago. Only in this way, can a single character survive fromoblivion and last permanently in people’s memory. Therefore, by looking at thehero or heroines chosen by the society at its time, we can understand what thesociety lacks of and what they expect from themselves. Confusionswas a great figure in China’s history, and his impact in the world becomegreater as well. He is famous for his pedagogy and political philosophy. However,his pedagogy was not accepted well at his own time therefore he was not knownat his own time. Since the end of last century, Chinese became to pick up thislong-existed-but-forgotten cultural legacy and its bliss is spreading over theworld ever after. Then how does it happen? This is because what he believed inhis politics philosophy is beyond its empirical possibility at his time. For example,he encourages teachers using different teaching method to guide differentstudents according to their different characteristics. But his kingdom did notneed its citizen to be wise and well-developed. They needed simple mind laborwho can be easily controlled and submissive. However,after the building of new China and after the open-door policy, Chinese aredesperate for creative thinking and knowledge, and people are looking for amore comprehensive and integral life. What Confusions encouraged fulfills ourexpectation. Therefore, he became known in the recent years. By looking atwhat confusions are promoting, we understand what Chinese people are needing indesperate now. In conclusion, thestanding out of a hero or heroine in a society must timely represent what itspeople want. Some of the heroes might not be famous timely though, his back to thestage must again to speak for people’s needs |
