Lin: 1904- 1955, formerly known as Lin, from Minhou, Fujian. China, a famous architect, crescent poetess and the first female architect in China, was also praised by Hu Shi as a talented woman of China generation. In literature, she has written many works in her life, including essays, poems, novels, plays, translations and letters, all of which are excellent works, including You are an April Day on Earth and Ninety-nine Degrees of Fiction. In the early 1930s, Lin and her husband Liang Sicheng used modern scientific methods to study the ancient architecture in China, becoming pioneers in this academic field. Later, they made great academic achievements in this field, and her work laid a solid scientific foundation for the study of ancient architecture in China. In addition, after 1949, Lin did three great things in art: the first was to participate in the design of the national emblem; The second is to transform the traditional cloisonne; The third is to participate in the design of the Monument to the People's Heroes in Tiananmen Square and make great contributions to the nation and the country. Unfortunately, her ambition didn't come true. 1, 1,1On the morning of April 5, she passed away at the age of 5 1. There are different views about Lin-why should I embarrass a woman Lin? -Book critic (from France) "April Day on Earth" appeared on the screen, and Lin's name resounded through the eardrum. The collocation of three women did not highlight the influence of talented women like Thehours, but let our eyes wander from the three women. The brilliance of Lin, a beautiful poet and architect, is not as brilliant as imagined. Not because of Zhou Xun's acting skills of crying and laughing with her eyes open, but because she stood in the bright light with Zhang Youyi and Lu Xiaoman. Behind the powder is a real knife and a real gun. It is natural for the audience to be distracted. Lin has always been the center of a gang. Whether it's a person who yearns for it from afar or a guest who joins her salon, the portrait we get is always a group of men looking up at her like footlights, setting her off with soft light, making her more and more eye-catching and eager for life. This center is both charming and heartbreaking. Liang Sicheng said that when Lin and Jin were in love, they asked him painfully. He said, "We all cried." I cried and hurt, and the scar should still be there, but out of reserve and self-esteem, I don't want to mention it. In Lin's life, there are many reserved silences. Xu Zhimo was the loudest and most reckless, but he was also very tactful when he met Lin. He died in a plane crash at a critical moment and remained silent forever. Lu Xiaoman then became silent and remained in plain clothes all his life. Liang Sicheng was silent. We only know what his second wife, Zhu Lin, said. Zhu Lin also silent. When Lin is mentioned, she always thinks of visiting her girlhood. Kim was even more explicit to the interviewer: "I have to tell her everything." I can't tell (others) what I didn't have a chance to say to her. I don't want to say or have such words. " But in today's era, there may be no silence. The mystery in the love affair is more like "Jiuyang Zhen Jing" in the belly of a white ape. Everyone can't wait to take it out and copy it. 1994, Fei's book The Soul of China Architecture was published. 1996, Zhang Youyi's granddaughter Zhang Bangmei published her oral autobiography, which also revealed a secret. Li Jianwu once said: "Lin's cleverness and arrogance cut her off from ordinary people ... she is extremely clever, and she has a fiery heart." She speaks fast, straightforward and strong, and almost all women regard her as an enemy. " Perhaps because she is surrounded by male friends, her life has not been overwhelmed by a pile of memoirs. Bing Xin wrote "Our Wife's Living Room" to satirize her. When the name Lin became more and more popular, the worship of her and the deconstruction of her greatness went on at the same time. Perhaps female audience/readers pay more attention to Lin than men, and are more likely to worship or despise her, just as they pay attention to manners. Kelly, the former is a celebrity with love, marriage and career, and the latter is a star with career and marriage. In the final analysis, Lin is even better. He combines Yi Shu's female ideal with the poetry in the novel. However, how many men have participated in this cultural concern? This is a question that makes me curious. Wilma's husband Fei Zhengqing would never write a biography for an old friend. If Zhang Bangmei were a man, he would never take his aunt's story as his graduation thesis. After all, it is always women who pay so much attention to other people's stories. Since caring for others is a common fault of women, is Lin an exception? According to Zhang Youyi's autobiography, Lin met her at 1947: "A friend came to tell me that Lin just had a major operation on tuberculosis in the hospital and probably won't live long. Even her husband Liang Sicheng was recalled from Yale University where he taught. Why did Lin want to see me? I want to take Huan and my grandchildren. She is too weak to speak. She just looked at us and tossed her head as if she were looking at me. I don't know what she wants to see Maybe I'm ugly and unhappy ... I think she wants to see me now because she loves Xu Zhimo and wants to see his children. Even after marrying Liang Sicheng, she has always loved Xu Zhimo. " Lin's behavior is really puzzling, which makes people think deeply. What does she want to see? What is there to see in Zhang Youyi? The arrogant goddess did something quite close to common sense again. After Xu Zhimo's death, Ling Shuhua kept his diaries and manuscripts. Lin didn't hide her curiosity and desire for. "I just want to read a diary, which gives me satisfaction and curiosity. I will remember this strange world and commemorate my old friend." (1932 letter to Hu Shi on the first day of the first month) As she wished, she got Xu Zhimo's Cambridge Diary, but a few pages were missing, so she was angry with Ling Shuhua for quite a while. I don't want to give this article a high-profile ending with the theme of "Look, this is the real Lin, and she is just a gossipy little woman", and also give myself a few ounces of confidence. Logical readers should have guessed that while I pay so much attention to Lin, I also reveal my gender identity as a woman. Everyone has a side that can't be on the table. Why do women embarrass women? I hope that the deceased will rest in peace with my acquired male conscience, and I also hope to see more interesting memoirs about this woman out of the tenderness of women. This is the limit I can do, and I want to encourage all female readers here. As an architect, Lin's architecture is a poem of her heart. Book critic Liu Bing Xiao Gan wrote in his masterpiece "Talented Woman Forest": "I heard that Hui has a serious lung disease and often has to stay in bed. But she doesn't look like a patient, wearing a riding suit ... when she is talking, it is difficult for others to interrupt. Yin Hui's talkativeness is by no means the gossip of married women, but often a knowledgeable, insightful, sharp and agile criticism ... She never beats around the bush and is ambiguous. No one has ever held a grudge against such pure academic criticism. I am often impressed by Yin Hui's extraordinary artistic understanding. " It was a Saturday afternoon on 1933, 1 1, when Xiao Gan was at home having tea. At the same time, this is also a true portrayal of Lin Yisheng. In the mid-1990s, Lin's works were once popular in China and boarded the last bus of the century. Of course, we can't measure the works of Lin, an architect and art designer, with the literary appeal of the writer Zhang Ailing. This comparison itself is stupid. But sadly, at present, most readers regard Ms. Lin as a beautiful goldfish beside the bedside table because of the fabrication and hype of boring literati. For real writers, this absurd hype is close to shame. At the end of the 1920s, Lin, an associate professor in the Department of Architecture of Northeastern University, participated in the Northeast University School Emblem Collection Grand Prix initiated by Zhang Xueliang. Lin's design of Baishan Blackwater won the first prize in one fell swoop and won the highest prize in this competition. But now people know very little about it, and this era is boring. The world likes to spy on another thing that happened in that era in another way: they choose to sit in front of the TV and watch the soap opera "April Day on Earth" while commenting on which of the three women written by Xu Zhimo is the most beautiful. They forget that Xu Zhimo is just a passer-by in Lin 5 1 life. Xu Lin's love is like a farce, and Xu Zhimo plays the role of a clown. 1945 At the end of World War II, Lin, then a professor of architecture in Tsinghua University, was invited by the US military to mark the location of famous cultural sites on the upcoming Nara bombing map to avoid being bombed. Comparing the atrocities committed by the Japanese army in China for eight years, we can see the progress of mankind. But many people may not know that the Lin family almost died in Japanese bombing in June 5438+0937, June 5438+0 1 year and June 5438+0939, and his third brother was killed in the war against Japan in June 5438+094 1 year. Even the gods and bodhisattvas in the nine heavens and ten places in Buddhist scriptures are just so. 1953 In May, Beijing began to brew the demolition of archways, and large-scale demolition of ancient buildings began to spread in this city. Wu Han, then vice mayor of Beijing, undertook the task of explaining the demolition work. In order to save the only well-preserved arched street in the four dynasties from being destroyed by political factors, Lin's husband, Liang Sicheng, a famous architect in China, had a heated argument with Wu Han. Because of Wu Han's remarks, Liang Sicheng burst into tears on the spot. Shortly thereafter, Lin and Wu Han also had a face-to-face conflict at a dinner hosted by Zheng Zhenduo, director of the Social and Cultural Affairs Bureau of the Ministry of Culture, inviting celebrities from the cultural relics field of the European and American Alumni Association. Chen Congzhou, a professor at Tongji University, recalled: "She pointed at Wu Han's nose and denounced him loudly. Although she had a serious lung disease and her throat was gone, she was really affectionate in expression and atmosphere. " Today, the archway has disappeared with the cultural catastrophe, but Lin's King Kong roar that day will always surround every China scholar with bloody conscience. Things change, things change. Nowadays, regardless of life or death, Xu Zhimo and Jin Du are masters in their respective fields. China has a "fine tradition" that scholars despise each other since ancient times. I am not interested in attacking Xu and Jin's privacy. But I still want to say: Compared with Xu Zhimo's writing style, Jin's thought is decadent, and Zhang Ailing and Qian Zhongshu's whitewash is peaceful. Contemporary Ms. Lin is much more noble in personality. Lin in other people's eyes is more elegant than expected □ Book reviewer Qiu In the 1930s, Jin wrote a couplet for Liang Sicheng and Lin, "A gentleman on the beam, a beauty under the forest". Bing Xin mentioned Lin Yinhui and said, "She is very beautiful and talented." When I compare Lin with Lu Xiaoman, I think Lin is "beautiful", but Lu Xiaoman is not. Cousins who grew up with Lin can almost describe in detail how her clothes, manners and words fascinated them. (Chen Zhongying: Forest in People's Memory-Interview Notes) Among many praises, it is worth reviewing Zhang Youyi's evaluation of forest. When she knew who Xu Zhimo loved, she once said, "Xu Zhimo's girlfriend is another lady with more complicated thoughts, more beautiful appearance and completely free feet." (Zhang Bangmei: feet and suits) The beauty that complements each other is naturally her extraordinary talent. If Wen Jie marveled at Lin's beauty, she made no secret of her admiration for her talent. "During the European Renaissance, there was an elephant. A generalist like finch. He is a great painter, mathematician, mechanic and engineer. Lin was an outstanding and versatile figure in China during the Renaissance. Her achievements in architecture are undoubtedly major, but she has also made achievements in poetry, novels, essays and plays. (Wen Jieruo: "A Brief Introduction to Lin") Bian said: "She is a born poet, loves drama and is good at stage design, but she is a colleague of her husband Liang Sicheng, a famous architectural historian in China. On the surface, she is mainly an effective collaborator of the latter, but in fact she is the source of his inspiration. " In Shen Congwen's eyes, Lin is "Miss Yan", while Xiao Li, a later person, called Lin "Yan artist". Wilma thinks that Lin Yin Hui "can leave his mark on any art with his keen insight". Lin "likes excitement and admiration", which can also be confirmed by Lin's words at the literary salon. Fei Zhengqing recalled that Lin said in her later years, "She is a writer and poet with creative talent, a woman with rich aesthetic ability and extensive interest in knowledge activities, and her communication is full of charming charm. In this family, or any occasion where she is present, all the people present always revolve around her. " (Fei Zhengqing's Memoirs of Fei Zhengqing to China) However, it is precisely this kind of forest that can endure academic loneliness and loneliness as well as hardships and poverty in life. As the central figure of the salon, she was surrounded by admirers like holding the stars of the moon, and she visited ancient buildings with Liang Sicheng in the backcountry and empty temples regardless of serious illness and hardship. In her early years, she experienced the splendor of a famous family, and everyone admired her. During the war, she was trapped in Lizhuang, and she personally took the bottle to the streets to buy oil and vinegar. When I was young, I traveled to Britain and studied in the United States, and gained the true meaning of eastern and western art. It is she who is so good at English that Fei Meiwei admires her. It was she who insisted on staying in the motherland when she was poor and ill in middle age. This discussion about Lin caused by friends is another kind of discussion. When Li Jianwu heard that Lin was seriously ill and did not leave the motherland during the Anti-Japanese War, he said excitedly, "She is a microscope and the daughter-in-law of Liang Qichao. Later, the United States hired the couple to give lectures, but they refused on the grounds that they would stay in the motherland and suffer. " (Li Jianwu: Lin) Perhaps this kind of forest is the most memorable and should be remembered by future generations.
