Chapter 216 Talking about Literature

The news of Zhang's re-opening of the class quickly spread in Jiangyang University. Wang Xi didn't plan to make a big fuss, so he only made a news about the elective course on the official website.

Originally, seeing that no one signed up at the beginning, Wang Xi was still a little worried, thinking that if no one signed up later, he would announce it on the official Weibo, at least to make the classroom full of people.

Considering that Zhang Zhong was teaching for the first time, a small classroom was arranged, which could only accommodate 80 people at most, and the number of people was also limited to 44.

But Wang Xi knows that elective courses are different from speeches. The classrooms are inside the teaching building, and no tickets are required to enter. The students have long legs, and no one can stop them if they want to see them.

In fact, Wang Xi was not wrong. The next afternoon, before the class started, the classroom was already full of people, except for the seats.

Wang Xi arrived in advance, in order to prevent any accidents. He took a roster and called the names one by one. .

When Zhang Zhong arrived, there was a burst of cheers in the classroom, but the order was maintained fairly well.

Taking the roster from Wang Xi, Zhang Zhong raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm afraid there are more than 44 people."

"The students are very enthusiastic, and it is impossible for us to drive them away." Wang Xi said with a smile.

Zhang nodded heavily: "Well, pay attention to safety."

He looked at the bottom, thinking that there were more curious people in the first class, so they all came to watch, and there should not be so many people next time.

Zhang Zhong raised his hand to signal, and the noisy classroom became quiet.

"Although it is an elective course, everyone should have noticed that this course does not have a name, so the content of the lecture will be more casual. Basically, I will talk about whatever comes to mind. Therefore, please don't expect too much. Think Let’s see what can be learned from me. Well, let’s talk about literature in the first class. Before the lecture, I would like to ask everyone here who is a student of the Faculty of Arts.”

Two students raised their hands, Zhang Chong said with a smile, "Okay, you two can go out now, those who know how to do things are not easy to deceive."

The two students who raised their hands suddenly froze, not knowing what to do.The other students were a little dazed, did this drive the students out?
Zhang Zhong laughed again, "Of course it was a joke."

Hearing Zhang Zhong's words, the audience roared with laughter. Although they had seen Zhang Zhong's humor in the last speech, they did not expect that Zhang Zhong was also familiar with such things as witty wit.

After joking and enlivening the classroom atmosphere a little, Zhang Zhong said, "I want to talk to you about literature and life first, so what is literature? In my understanding, literature is an art with language as the medium. As far as it is art, it has something in common with music, painting, sculpture and everything called art: the author must have a unique perception of life and the world, and this perception must have a unique expression. This perception is consistent with Expression means content and form, which must be integrated and seamlessly integrated into a living and harmonious whole, which can make..."

Zhang Zhong talked eloquently on the podium, and the two students from the Faculty of Literature scratched their heads, thinking that the class that the teacher said seemed to be deeper than that of their literature teacher. What is the situation?

After talking for a while, Zhang Zhong stopped his lecture, and asked the students below, "I'm lecturing, is it a little tight?"

Most of the passage he said came from Zhu Guangqian's talk about literature. The wording is very compact and the language is very concise, which is not comparable to ordinary teaching plans.

That's why he was worried that these non-literature students couldn't chew it.

Looking at their bewildered expressions, Zhang Zhong knew the answer, and then said, "Okay, then I'll sort out the previous content for everyone again."

The so-called combing is to add some nonsense to the words just said to make it easier for students to understand.

In fact, when Wang Xi asked him to give lectures at the beginning, he refused, but after consideration, he still agreed. The reason made him feel that in addition to works such as novels and poems, he could also teach some academic things on the earth to others. Students listen.

He has read a lot and has a good memory. Although he can't repeat it verbatim, he can still talk about it.

Even if you don’t talk about other things, Zhu Guangqian’s talk about literature alone is enough for Zhang Zhong to talk for a long time. If the course schedule is more sparse, I’m afraid it’s not enough to finish talking in a few semesters.

For example, the "literature and life" he mentioned just now may take several class hours to finish, and there will be "elaborate words" after that. Double it.

……

After the whole class was over, Zhang Zhong talked about "Literature and Life" for a short time. He didn't talk about the main text for a long time, and the rest of the time was explained, such as expression and form. He spent a lot of time talking about these two words.

Because it is a public elective course, none of the students here are literature majors.Zhang Zhong should be able to relax a bit if the people sitting underneath were all literature majors.

"Okay, get out of class is over."

After Zhang Zhong finished class, the students remained motionless. He nodded to Wang Xi who had been sitting in front, and walked out of the classroom.

Wang Xi followed immediately.

"Mr. Zhang, you were so humble before. This literature course is not easy." Wang Xi walked beside Zhang Zhong and couldn't help but admire.

He was both excited and surprised, because he never thought that Zhang Zhong would have such profound attainments in academic research.

Zhang Chong laughed, "It's just a good memory, it's nothing."

What he meant was that he had only borrowed from Master Zhu Guangqian's achievements, which were really nothing, but Wang Xi got it wrong and sighed, "Mr. Zhang is very knowledgeable and admirable. I didn’t bring any lesson plans, which is not something ordinary people can do.”

"Teacher Wang is overrated."

Zhang Zhong chatted with Wang Xi, looked at the time, and said, "Mr. Wang, I still have some things to do, so I'll go back first."

"Oh, okay, you go back to that teacher first." Wang Xi nodded repeatedly, then remembered something, and said, "Then how should we arrange the next class?"

"Let's take a look first. If I have time, I can still have a class this week."

Zhang Zhong now feels that it is good to come to class when he has nothing to do. He often spends time with young people, and his own mentality can become younger.But he can't just follow the class, after all, he still has a lot of things to do.
