Understanding the general secretary's "view of literature and art" from three key words
2021-12-17
*** Literature and art is an important cause of the party and the people, and the literature and art front is an important front of the party and the people. On the centennial of the founding of the party, the significance of this grand meeting in the literary and artistic circles held after the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th CPC Central Committee is self-evident. *** *** There are three key words, which always run through the general secretary's "view of literature and art". (1) Grand View of the times Culture is the spiritual lifeline of a nation, and literature and art is the horn of the times. *** In 2014, when presiding over the Symposium on literary and artistic work, it was pointed out that writers and artists should become pioneers, pioneers and advocates of the trend of the times. In 2016, in the speech at the opening ceremony of the 10th National Congress of the China Federation of literary and art circles and the 9th National Congress of the China Writers Association, it was emphasized that the literature and art of any era can make an enlightening voice only if they closely maintain and share weal and woe with the country and nation. In 2019, when visiting members of the literary and social sciences circles of the CPPCC, he proposed to deeply reflect the great changes in the history of our times, depict the spiritual map of our times, draw a portrait of the times, make a biography of the times and clarify the morality of the times. …… Contemporary China has magnificent rivers and mountains, heroic people and great prospects. The stage for the prosperity and development of China's literature and art is incomparably broad. At the historical intersection of the two centenary goals, the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has entered an irreversible historical process. How can literature and art lead the trend of the times and inspire the national spirit? *** "Keep up with the pace of the times and feel the pulse of art from the pulse of the times"; "We should establish a great view of history and the times, look at thousands of rivers and millions of soldiers, grasp the historical process and the general trend of the times, reflect the Millennium changes of the Chinese nation, and reveal the right path in the world in China for a century" In the new historical position of contemporary Chinese literature and art, the formulation of "great historical view and great era view" has rich connotation and profound thought. To forge ahead into the new era and embark on a new journey, literary and artistic workers should "deeply grasp the theme of the times of national rejuvenation, and closely combine the pursuit of life and artistic life with the future of the country, the destiny of the nation and the aspirations of the people", so as to condense the soul and gas for the nation and the times. (2) People's position The people are the creators of history and the times. In the magnificent struggle of the people, there are hot chapters of creating history everywhere. Together, it is an epic of the people. "The people are the mother of literature and art"; "Life is the people, and the people are life"; "The growth of literature and art is inseparable from the nourishment of the people, who have an inexhaustible and abundant source of all literature and art"; …… *** On methods, he presided over a symposium on literary and artistic work seven years ago and pointed out that "there are 100 or 1000 literary and artistic creation methods, but the most fundamental, key and reliable way is to take root in the people and life". On the theme, it is emphasized that "singing the motherland and praising heroes has always been the eternal theme of literary and artistic creation" and "literary and artistic creation should give the warmest praise to the great process of the people in creating history, and the most affectionate praise to all those who struggle for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and all heroes who sacrifice and sacrifice for the people". Speaking of position, he proposed at this meeting that "originating from, for and belonging to the people is the fundamental position of socialist literature and art and the driving force for the prosperity and development of socialist literature and art", and reiterated the "two for" direction of literature and art "serving the people and socialism". Socialist literature and art, in essence, is the literature and art of the people. Only by putting the people in the highest position in their hearts and taking the people's satisfaction as the highest standard for testing art can we create more excellent works that meet the people's cultural needs and enhance the people's spiritual strength, so that the hundred flower garden of literature and art will bloom for the people forever. (3) Virtue and art Literature and art is the project of casting the soul. *** Five years ago, at the opening ceremony of the 10th National Congress of the China Federation of literary and art circles and the 9th National Congress of the China Writers Association, the general secretary proposed that literature and art should shape people's hearts, and creators should first shape themselves. The majority of literary and artistic workers should regard upholding morality and art as a lifelong lesson. *** "Literature and art should be popular, but it must not be vulgar, vulgar and kitsch. Literature and art should live, but it must not become the maker, follower and advocate of bad habits. Literature and art should innovate, but it must not engage in strange and unorthodox things. Literature and art should be effective, but it must not be contaminated with the smell of copper and become a slave to the market." *** "The self-cultivation of literary and artistic workers is not just personal affairs. The quality of literary and artistic style will affect the whole cultural field and even the ecology of social life." "those who establish morality and cultivate people must first establish themselves; those who cast soul bacon must first create themselves". *** "The majority of literary and artistic workers should unify their personal moral cultivation and social image with the social effects of their works, adhere to their artistic ideals, pursue both morality and art, and strive to preserve righteousness for history, promote virtue for the world and leave a clear name for themselves with noble ethics and works of both literary quality and beauty." "The ROC rises with the wind and soars up to 90000 miles." This is a poem written by the great poet Li Bai during his youth when he traveled far with his sword. At that time, he felt the vigorous atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty and his ambition of Lingyun was beating in his chest. Today, the future of China, the Chinese people and the Chinese nation is boundless. On the road of irreversible rejuvenation, Chinese literature and art in the new era hold high the torch of national spirit, sound the horn of progress of the times, cast new brilliance of Chinese culture with a new atmosphere, and provide strong value guidance, cultural cohesion and spiritual driving force for realizing the second Centennial goal and the Chinese dream of great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
