Former name: Hongxi
Epitaph: Yi Ping
Birth and death: 1902— 1947
Main works: Collection of Ancient Temple, A Bundle of Love Letters, Collection of Cherry Blossoms, etc. Zhang Yiping was born in 1902. 17 years old, from Nanjing to Beijing for classes. This is because of Hu Shi's background, when Hu Shi was teaching at Peking University.
At this time, Zhang Yiping has no capital, but she is very arrogant. She often hangs out with some poor buddies, drinks and scolds the world, which is a bit like the legendary swordsman. Hu Shi couldn't see the past, so he asked Zhang Yiping to work for himself. Therefore, he claimed to be Hu Shi's "secretary" and was proud of "my friend Hu Shizhi" in his speech.
What makes Zhang Yiping stand out is her courage and loyalty. At that time, fellow countryman Wang Jingzhi caused a storm in the literary world. He came out to fight Hu and was discovered by Lu Xun. Later, he scolded Zhang Yaoxiang and won the Lu Xun Award. This is the opportunity to associate with Lu Xun, so he became a celebrity. At this time, he and his girlfriend, Wu Shutian, are both screenwriters of Threads.
1925, Zhang Yiping's masterpiece Peach Dress came out. It is said that it was inspired by Wu Shutian's pink dress, which is very charming. Zhang Yiping is also very proud, claiming that the article is first-rate.
During his stay in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Zhang Yiping came to Chengdu and defected to local military personnel. 1937 Published the old-style poetry collection "Sharpened Collection". He himself explained that this was because "after coming to Chengdu, most of my friends were soldiers, and literati with knives took pens." And it's not easy to sharpen your knife in Japan. "It seems that he is not very proud in the army.
After that, his name was rarely mentioned in the literary world. 1March, 946, died of cerebral hemorrhage in Chengdu. A generation of talented scholars has since disappeared. After compiling A Tale of Two Places, Lu Xun said to Li and other northern friends, "Look, if I compile a bundle of love letters, will there be readers?" Mr. Lu Xun's words are intended to satirize Zhang Yiping. This man named Zhang Yiping published a book called A Bundle of Love Letters on 1927. A bundle of love letters is said to be "a boring book". "This kind of novel-style and non-fiction writing is not a literary creation except that it advocates that married people and married people can fall in love, or write about prostitution and pornography."
Zhang Yiping is the author of such a book, and it makes sense for Mr. Lu Xun to find him boring.
Soon after, this Zhang Yiping published another book, two bundles of love letters. No wonder Mr. Lu Xun said that he would make up a bundle of love letters, one after another. This kind of boring love letter can really be tied into a bundle. Zhang Yiping is famous for her collection of novels, A Bunch of Love Letters and My Friend Hu Shizhi. A Pile of Love Letters is a famous work by Zhang Yiping. This collection of short stories can be said to be the product of Zhang Yiping's love triangle with painter Ye Tiandi and female writer Wu Shutian. Zhang Yiping wrote two packages of love letters because of Ye Tiandi's love letter to Wu Shutian, which was related to his own inaugural issue. As a result, Zhang Yiping and Wu Shutian got married. A bundle of love letters became one of the best-selling books at that time. Beixin Bookstore printed the first edition on June 1925 and printed ten editions on March 1930, and distributed nearly 20,000 copies, which were translated into Russian. The edition of China Modern Literature-China New Literature Series 1936 lists 124 national writers, including Hu Shi, Wang Jingzhi, Hu Siyong and Zhang Yiping from Jixi.
Zhang Yiping is a famous "my friend Hu Shizhi". This should be a funeral. In fact, it should be said that without Hu Shi's support and help, he might not have become a writer. When studying in Anhui No.2 Normal University, Zhang Yiping loved reading New Youth magazine and advocated vernacular poetry. She was expelled from school because of her active thinking, so she moved to Shanghai to find Wang Mengzou, the owner of Yadong Library. Wang Mengzou introduced him to Hu Shi because of his hometown. He studied in Peking University Preparatory School, worked as Hu Shi's assistant, helped to copy the manuscript, and paid him handsomely. Not only has his life been taken care of, but he has more access to famous professors and gained a lot of knowledge.
192 1 year, Hu Siyong, nephew of Zhang Yiping, Zhang Tiemin and Hu Shi, organized a book club, and Hu Shi took time to give them a speech. The author saw this record twice in April and June, and expressed his opinions on the study of The Book of Songs and Songs of the South, showing great concern for Zhang Yiping and other Jixi students, which played a very important role in their growth and fame.
1922 On July 23rd, Zhang Yiping and Hu Siyong jointly wrote a letter to Hu Shi, suggesting that "Efforts" be changed to "Weekly Review" to talk about politics, literature and art and demand political progress. During the period of 1926, patriotic students of Beijing Normal University were suppressed by Duan and six students were killed. Zhang Yiping wrote elegiac mourning bitterly;
Traitor, patriotic damn;
It's no use scolding thieves, it's better to kill them.
Zhang Yiping once wrote a letter to Hu Shi: "Please accept the attached text. Colleagues wanted Mr. Wang to write a pair, and Mr. Wang agreed that night. Now hand in the ink and rice paper together. " On April 9th (the year to be tested, the letterhead is China Education Reform Society), so Zhang Yiping got the couplet "As you sow, you reap, you can learn well and learn slowly". Zhang Yiping dares to express his true views and academic opinions on Hu Shi, a great benefactor and famous professor. Zhang Yiping signed a serial article "The Bad History of China Literature" in the Morning Post Supplement 1924, and criticized and opposed Hu Shi's great article.
1930165438+1October 13 Ri Zhang Yi Ping wrote to Hu Shi, saying that after a long illness, he was very weak and slept every day. If you write a short essay yourself, it will become a small volume next month. When it is published, it will be sent to you for reading. In the collation of "The Continuation of Nishang", it is planned that Mr. Please will be issued as one of the prefaces and postscripts after the prefaces and postscripts of Zhou Zuoren and Liu Bannong are issued. 1931June 16 Ri Zhang sent another letter to Hu Shi, "My book" Diary on the Pillow "is now sent to you for your consideration. WHOTIB (My Faith) made by Mr. ELIEVE has been translated into Chinese by friends, and the draft has been bought by Dadong (Bookstore) as one of the English-Chinese translation series. The translation was read easily and several changes were made. However, if in doubt, Mr. Wang must correct himself. This magazine is specially designed for students above middle school to learn English. Most of the papers in Mr. Wang's "Hu Cun" have become common reading materials for middle school students all over the country, so who mentioned it? The publication of ELIEVE in the future will undoubtedly be warmly welcomed by middle school students. Moreover, this article is a meticulous work, which must have a great influence on young people's thinking. "
With his own talent and the support of Hu Shi and Lu Xun, Zhang Yiping became famous in China literary world. Hu Shi is a famous messenger who loves talents, friends and helps others. Zhang Yiping wrote to Hu Shi, asking him to preface the book and introduce it to the Commercial Press for publication. Later, Zhang Yiping, then editor-in-chief of Dadong Bookstore, also took the initiative to translate Hu Shi's English book My Faith into Chung ying Cheng, and prepared to print it into a series, which was recommended to students above technical secondary school, with a deeper influence. The publication of "Hu Cun" relies on colleagues in Yadong Library, who usually pay attention to collecting articles published by Hu Shi, making a catalogue, and Hu Shi's review, and it will soon be published in a book. Hu Shi's celebrity effect is attributed to many heroes in Jixi. No wonder Zhang Taiyan, a master of Chinese studies, marveled at "Jixi's coming to Beijing". 1, Shen Shi (poetry anthology) 1925, Beixin

The first chapter of the handout begins: "Literature is literature; The history of literature, neo-Confucianism. "
Lipper
Mr. Gu stood in the lecture hall of your Excellency Arctic and proudly praised his masterpiece: "These articles get to the point!" "
2. "Poets and philosophers"
In ancient China, there were "poetic immortals" and "poetic saints", but there were no "poetic philosophers". Since Zhu Zhendan came to the East, China has become a poet and philosopher.
Who are poets and philosophers?
I said, "Poets and part-time philosophers are also poets."
Hu Shizhi said, "I hope the poets in the countryside can be satisfied with their own lives. Being a good poet is enough to enjoy.
Blessed; Don't dream of becoming a philosopher. "(see reading a magazine)" No! ! near
For China, there is a "long-term success". Five hundred years later, Yang Honglie wrote The Outline of China's Poetry History, which became a masterpiece.
The book says, "Li Bai has been a poet for more than a thousand years, so some people call him a poet and philosopher."
3. The authority of genius
Genius said: don't shout loudly, you should keep your mouth shut.
God said: you were born with a mouth, of course you have the freedom to shout.
I started to open my mouth-God suddenly disappeared, and the genius came up to me and said, "No! ……"
The 4th issue of Yu Si, 1924, 65438+February, 15 (signed by Yi Ping) (respecting copyright, the following paragraphs are from Mr. Jiangnan, author of Nantong Literature Network, editor's note).
Reading modern prose, I am most impressed by two people, one is Liang Yuchun and the other is Zhang Yiping. Liang Yuchun was brilliant and made his mark in the literary world when he was in college. His works are also the trend of British and American literature. In casual description, he saw a young man's blood always boiling and burning. In Fireman, he praised the bravery, kindness and fearlessness of ordinary firefighters, and lashed his inner cowardice. In "Give it back to me" and other books, he wrote a young man's contempt for authority and the spirit of independent thinking and not blind worship. In "Another Year of Spring Grass Green", he wrote his sadness and nostalgia for the beautiful life of the earth. Although his articles are few, they are witty and full of literary interest. Zhang Yiping was also a warm-blooded young man when he wrote The Collection of Ancient Temples. Although he can't stab the enemy in the chest with a dagger like Lu Xun, his spear is enough to stab those old and hypocritical fake faces and bring a sense of freshness and comfort to the people around him. He laughed at modern poets who only wrote poems without thinking, and only wrote confused poems without writing clear and fluent poems. In the article Romance and Reality, Xu Zhimo and Liang Shiqiu received a cold shoulder. He criticized and laughed at the disorderly hair of these famous professors, which showed his courage and frankness. In his essays, he expressed his inner worries, which were all due to the suffering of China and the struggle of the people.
They gave me the same impression of youth, enthusiasm, courage, independent thinking, frankness and desire for light. They are like two rafts in a torrent.
I have also read the works of this famous person. Wu Zuoren wrote his prose in Kuyu Zhai without anger and self-contempt. Liang Shiqiu ate white rice in the elegant house and wrote his Essays on Elegant House to the fullest. Xu Zhimo is extremely romantic. When he was in love, he wrote poems, but he also spent a lot of time. Lin Yutang is famous for writing humorous articles with a pipe in his mouth. As for Hu Shizhi's pragmatism, it's just "speculating" Dewey's American pragmatism philosophy. However, to tell the truth, their articles are all refined and refined, but they lack the blood of youth and the spirit of saving the world. I prefer Lu Xun's realistic novels and dagger-like essays to them. From his sad and unbearable words, I saw the conscience that a writer should have.
I am the kind of person who despises authority and dares to tell the truth, so I oppose the hypocrisy of words and those who don't think with their own heads or speak with their own throats. A writer should have a kind of compassion for the world, a kind of courage to hate evil, and a spirit of sacrifice to go his own way. If literary creation becomes a game and a deduction of ideas, it is not only the sorrow of literature, but also the sorrow of this nation. I always pay attention to the inner meaning of words and oppose playing with words. Even when I am absent-minded, I don't profane literature. I like the works of Liang Yuchun and Zhang Yiping, because I see a young, brave and frank heart in their words of "children's words are boundless". Although I am no longer young, I can't love and praise life with words like blood, but I still refuse to give up the beating heart full of youthful blood behind plain words. The first time I met Zhang Yiping, it was in Lu Xun's notes of a group of old poems, a rather feminine name. The poem is titled "Four Professors", and its three clouds say: "There is literature in the world, and girls have many hips. Chicken soup replaces pork and Beixin covers the door. " Bet: "This poem alludes to Zhang Yiping. Zhang Yiping once said in "Essays on the Pillow" (1published by Beixin Bookstore in June, 929):' Lazy Spring! I don't even bother to touch a woman's ass! He also said that he paid a large amount of royalties in advance to Beixin Bookstore, and once said that' if you have more money, you can drink chicken soup without eating pork'. Zhang is also called "the poet who touches the bottom" because of this famous saying. According to Zhang's Malaysian disciple Wen Zichuan, the original authors of these two poems are actually Huxiang poet Wang Jingzhi. Zhang's words are quoted in the article, and outsiders don't know the details, so it is really inappropriate to write them by mistake.
Zhang is a native of Jixi, Anhui Province, and a fellow countryman. His grandfather was a tribute student of the former Qing Dynasty, who knew ancient Chinese and often forced him to learn it 400 times a day. His father, a small businessman, believed in the language of "opening books is beneficial" of Emperor Taizong, which made Hu change from Ning to Ping at the age of 18, and hence the famous saying "My friend". I often attend classes in Peking University in my spare time. Gradually, he became as familiar as Zhou brothers and Yi, and became one of the main authors of Yu Si.
There is a pamphlet called "Collected Works of Zhang Yiping: Three Essays and Others", which is one of the series of Shanghai-style essays selected by Xu and Feng Jinniu and published by Chinese Dictionary Publishing House in June 1993+065438+ 10. It feels quite interesting, a little better than I expected, especially some of the three kinds of essays. There are three kinds of essays, namely, essays on the pillow, essays under the window and essays in the wind. This is also the author's complacent work. Taking Shi Shuo Xin Yu as an example, this paper outlines the voice and smile of an old friend in a few words, which is full of fun and beautiful language. As he said, Lu Xun Weng said:
Everyone knows that Mr. Lu Xun beat dogs, but he also beat pigs. On one occasion, Mr. Lu Xun said: "In Xiamen, there is a tree called Acacia, which is everywhere. One day, I saw a pig spitting acacia leaves. I thought that acacia leaves should not spit on pigs, so I got into a fight with pigs. Just then, a colleague came. He smiled and asked,' Haha, why did you duel with the pig?' I replied,' Dude, I can't tell you this. ' ……"
It's really interesting to write. At that time, Lu Xun was secretly in love with a female student. How could he tell anyone casually? Another example is to remember the suspicion of ancient Xuantong:
Read the Hindu art of love, in which there are many kinds of kisses. I don't know how to kiss my life, because I remember Mr. Gu. One day, chatting in Kuyuzhai, the suspicious old man asked, "Should I kiss Iraq first?" What about Iraq's suppression of him? What is the happiness and significance of two blind dates? "A guest at the dinner table readily replied," Kissing means that a woman puts her tongue in a man's mouth, including long kiss, short kiss, hot kiss and cold kiss. "Suspected that the old man heard about it and sighed:" Kissing is terrible. "
There is not much pen and ink, but in the bitter rain, at the wedding, drinking tea and talking about things is just like before. There are many such words in three kinds of compositions, so I won't give many examples. In addition, his essays "Children in Huai Bakery", "About Impermanence", "Hanging Green" and "My Scar" are also very charming.
Zhang Yiping's masterpiece is Peach Clothes. It is said that her writing was inspired by a pink dress of her lover Wu Shutian, which was later renamed "A Bundle of Love Letters", a collection of novels. I heard it was very bold. I haven't seen it, but I have read a few articles in his wife's diary. Writing is also frank, bold and naturally interesting. Record part of it:
March 3rd
My clothes are a little disgusting again, and I feel bloated myself.
I'm afraid of getting sick, so I've been worried and won't let him play. He is like a child, sometimes he has to play. I have no choice.
I think I have a strong sexual desire. If it weren't for my stomach, I would have a child. Today, the clothes rolled on me again and said, I would like to hold it like this forever.
I smiled and said, "Don't be too playful. I want you to be a writer, not a slut. "
One or two bundles of love letters were ridiculed as "lighting up autumn fragrance"
He was annoyed. He said, "There is no writer who is not a slut."
As a person, Zhang Yiping is very romantic in her private life. According to the Wen Zi Chuan mentioned above, "On one occasion, because of the wine reward, I couldn't get back to Zhenru, so I checked in at the Dadong Hotel of Nanjing Road Yongan Company and arrived with Peng; He wanted to call the station, but he called' Bai Mudan'. He said it was Zhao, which meant nothing. Then, like Tong Pak-hu lighting Chou-heung, he opened one ticket after another and called several "love affairs" one after another, all of which were inappropriate and a bit frustrating. But he talked about it on impulse. " Even Lao Zhao was exposed. It's really romantic
From 65438 to 0927, Zhang Yiping went to Shanghai, where she worked as a secretary for Zheng Hongnian, president of Jinan University. At the same time, she also teaches courses such as introduction to Chinese studies and rhetoric. /kloc-entered Sichuan in 0/936, first as a consultant to the provincial government, and then transferred to a military school as an instructor. Although I have a lover around me, my nature remains the same, and I often have a tryst with the little lady who has the reputation of "the flower of Chengdu". After his death, Zhang tied the knot with Ms. Wu Yuxian, a famous family in Nanhai. 1947, the second wife returned to her hometown. On the evening of February 22nd of the same year, 65438+ Zhang wanted to leave in a few days, followed her, and asked her old servant to accompany her. The old servant didn't want to argue with them, which led to the naturalization of cerebral hemorrhage that night. She is only 47 years old.
