Hand-Grenade Practice in Peking pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
`In 1975 I went to Peking for a year, together with nine other British students who had been exchanged by the British Council for ten Chinese students. The latter knew exactly what they were doing: learning English in order to further the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution. We were less sure. `From 1966, China had been turned upside down by young Red Guards who were encouraged to `Bombard the Headquarters'. Professors, surgeons, artists, pianists, novelists and film directors were attacked for their bourgeois pursuit of excellence or their attachment to decadent Western ideas. `Though by 1975 there were no longer violent street battles or badly beaten bodies floating down the Pearl River, we found Peking University governed by a Revolutionary Committee of workers, peasants and Party members determined that we should not learn too much and become experts divorced from the masses. `With our Chinese classmates, we spent half our time in factories, getting in the way of workers making railway engines, or in the fields, learning from peasants how to bundle cabbage or plant rice seedlings in muddy water. Heroically, we stayed up half the night to dig rather shallow underground shelters in case of nuclear attack. Much of the rest of the time was spent in class, with two compulsory hours of Marxism-Leninism-Mao Zedong Thought every Saturday morning and compulsory sport, which included hand-grenade throwing. I studied Chinese history which had to be revised overnight when Deng Xiaoping was criticized for the second time and erased from the record. The constant hammering of political rhetoric, broadcast from tannoys hidden in every tree, and the endless expositions of Marxist-Leninist dialectic were only interrupted by funeral announcements as yet another ancient revolutionary went to join karl Marx. `Just after I returned home, the Great Helmsman himself, Chairman Mao, died. Within weeks, the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution was not only over but renamed `The Ten Disastrous Years'. The reinstated Deng Xiaoping bounced back and declared that it was glorious to be rich: all my helpful digging and enginemaking had been a mistake.'

有点意思,很个人的视角,一窥1975-1976年外国留学生在北京的生活。 中文的题目翻译很有趣,书封上还写明张丽“润文”,应该是宣传部的人,可见题材之敏感。不过我对读了英文原文,实际上没什么大改动,还是不错的。 一些散乱的感想记录下: 和作者同去的英国留学生,好像不少...
評分作者从一个外国留学生的经历来仔细的简述那个年代北京的学习和生活,别开生面,因为这个视角特别的独特。还有谁有过这样的经历,并且用心描述呢?看完这本书,我惊讶于作者的细节描写。如果作者不是当时有记日记的习惯,那么就是作者有着惊人的记忆力。其次,作者的需要幽默生...
