Shi Shi Yi, we glad to see the continuous efforts and self -restraint through the writers, editors and media. Singapore's relatively loose and free creative environment is gradually shaping and building.
October and October of this year, the Swedish college announced that Korean female writer Han Jiang won the Nobel Prize in Literature this year.Two days later, Lianhe Zaobao and speech published Wang Qingmin's comment article Han Jiang won the Nobel Prize and the brilliant reasons for Korean culture.This article deeply analyzes the reason why South Korea's cultural achievements can be "far exceeding the area of land and population in the world, and even better than its highly prosperous economy."The creative environment, intellectuals' sense of responsibility and care for society, as well as the strong national emotions, crisis consciousness and self -introspection spirit of Koreans; 2. Korean literature and film and television works not only do not avoid taboos, but also have great books.This spirit of "dare to speak" is the key to the splendid and glorious Korean culture.Truth can move people's hearts, and free creation can fully tap the truth and express emotions.
Wang Wen gave me a lot of touches. Many pictures were turned in my mind during reading, and it thought of an ultimate problem: What enlightenment can Xinhua Literary Altar get the Nobel Prize from Han Jiang?
Zhang Bang's novel involves the meaning of Chinese education
On August 27 this year, Zhang Biao, a Chinese writer of 82 -year -old Singaporean.Zhang Bang is the representative figure of Xinhua scar literature. Wang Qingmin's "intellectuals' sense of responsibility and care for society" is the best portrayal of Zhang Ling before his lifetime.
In January 1968, Zhang Bang was sent to the Chinese Ministry of Middle School to teach art in the Middle School.Beginning in 1970, he helped teach the Chinese in one or two in one or two.Since then, Zhang Bang teaches art and Chinese with his mother tongue and Chinese, and has frequently interacted with students.
Zhang Ling recalled that in the early 1970s, Wuzhong was well -known in Wuji Zhima, Caiyu Port, and Linyu Port area.At that time, Wuzhong also took a group of Chinese high school courses, and the test results were equally tip.There are many Chinese elites in graduates. Later, some became writers, singers, painters, lyricists, party candidates, and even students walked into the Malaya Forest for "ideal".
However, in 1980, Wuzhong did not open the Chinese class. This is the prelude to the Ministry of Education to unify the teaching media language.All Chinese teachers can no longer use subjects such as Chinese education history, geography, science, mathematics and other subjects.Teacher Chinese teachers face a great impact, and those students who have been promoted from Chinese primary schools to middle school all have to change English to learn in English.The English teacher conflicts.
The grievances and pains encountered by these Chinese school teachers and students are the driving force of Zhang Bangchuang.During this period, he created a lot of miniature novels, which were included in the confidential and ten dream records of the novel collection 45.45.
In 1991, Zhang Bang said in an exclusive interview with Hity: "As a writer, he must be dissatisfied with the" social reality "and dissatisfaction.The 1980s was an important age. It is very meaningful if it can reflect the historical worry of Singapore Chinese education intellectuals at this historical stage. ", Make Zhang Bang can write a touching novel after another.
In 1992, Zhang Bang won the National Book Award of the National Book Award with a secret book of 45.45 conferences. It also caused attention due to the issue of educational issues involved in the book.On September 11 of the same year, Joint Morning News published the news that Zhang Bang won the Southeast Asian Literature Award. Zhang Ling said in an interview with reporters: "Most of my works are scar literature.It means that the National Arts Council has begun to pay attention to the voice of the writer.
This recommended award -winning news is not long, but it has two special significance: the official literary creation of sensitive Chinese education issues involved in content, holding an open and inclusive attitude; this is also a "scars related to Xinhua literature.Literature "keywords first appeared in Singapore media.
Zhang Xina and Hai Fan break through the taboos
In 2017, Zhang Biao's second minister's novel smoke was cigarette: a memory war game of a smoker was launched.If the educational problem novels such as the people in the network began to write in the late 1980s, Zhang Bang tried to break through the taboos for the first time, then the smoke was the second time he tried to break through the taboos.
Before the book was published, Zhang Bang told me that due to critical content, he was worried that the writing allowance he received would be officially recovered.I told him to put a hundred hearts -since the story outline of the novel has been paid and approved, and his novel plot is written according to the established story outline, the official has no reason to recover the writing allowance that has been sent to him.It proves that he was thinking about it at the time.
Officials are willing to provide writing allowances for smoke, and further confirm that it is tolerant of literary creation that reflects and criticize social reality.This long -term novel with a strong critical criticism also conveys an important message in 2018: our society is at a mature stage of gradually accepting critical literary creation.
In 1980, Nanyang University and the University of Singapore merged into the National University of Singapore. In the mid -1980s, Singapore Chinese School entered history.We do not need to continue to immerse in the sorrow brought about by the transformation of Chinese education, but we must record and sort out the history of this relationship with many people.
Zhang Xina is another Xinhua writer who has touched "changing teachers".In late September this year, the Morning Post Lenician City published its short stories Quinn Street, and there was a painting and situation depiction of the figures of changing teachers in that year.
In fact, as early as August and November last year, the Renaissance City published Zhang Xina's short stories in North Point and Biancheng 2009, which shows that in the case where the external environmental conditions are relatively loose, the editor of the newspaper sub -publication is in the scale of literary creation.Many invisible taboos and restricted areas have been broke through.Zhang Xina once told me that when she participated in the literary creation competition in the 1980s, she was more sensitive to the creative content, such as highlighting the topic of Chinese education and the experience of left -wing people.The novel of the subject matter is more difficult to accept the editor of the newspapers.
Time moved to the world, we happily saw that through the continuous efforts and self -restraint of writers, editors, and media, Singapore's relatively loose and free creative environment is gradually shaping and creation.
tolerance, freedom and diversity
On September 10 this year, at the Singapore Literature Awards ceremony, the back of Hai Fan's rainforests stood out and was awarded the Chinese Novel Award.The comment commented: "Among the new horse writers, although the theme of the rainforest guerrillas is not uncommon, the background of Haifan's rainforest is unique. Haifan based on personal experience, the hardships and complex emotions in the rain forestsVividly presented him. He not only paid attention to the "rain forest" and 'struggle ", but also deeply discussed the inner world and emotional entanglement of members of the Communist Party of China.Daddy Hai Fan through his own experience, let readers feel the complex emotions of the members of the Communist Party in the face of struggle and ideal.
Hai Fan said in an interview with Sun Jingfei, an associate reporter of the Morning Post: "The back of the rainforest is a strange life experience for modern Singapore.Those who nourish literature and artThe prosperous soil of the exhibition."
I hope to dare to speak spirit and not avoid sensitive issues, coupled with tolerance, freedom, and diversified soil and environment, it can bred a splendid culture belonging to Singapore.If so, it is the most important revelation of Han Jiang's Nobel Prize to Xinhua Literature.
