Review

《Chinese Cultural Reader》is like a magnificent portal that ushers readers into the splendid world of Chinese culture. This book serves as an stunning guide, leading me to admire the magnificent masterpiece of Chinese culture.And the characters in it are like brilliant stars shining in the firmament of thought, guiding me life directions. With vivid and engaging descriptions, these philosophical ideas become as accessible and warm as stories told by an old neighbor. The section on art in the book is even more intoxicating. Every stroke contains power and charm. The colorful paintings, whether it's the artistic conception of free - hand landscape painting or the delicate of meticulous flower - and - bird paintings, unfold before my eyes like a treasure that I can step into. The introduction of traditional operas is like a lively and magnificent festival. Sheng, Dan, Jing, and Chou make their appearances with splendid costumes, outstanding singing, and unique performing styles, which are vividly presented in my minds through the words. The lively reunion during the Spring Festival, the brightly lit lanterns during the Lantern Festival, the dragon boat races during the Dragon Boat Festival, and the moon - gazing sentiment during the Mid - Autumn Festival. Each festival is like a cheerful song, a warm embrace that tightly binds the Chinese people together. These descriptions of folk customs make it seem as if I can smell the fragrance of zongzi, hear the crackling of firecrackers, and feel the happiness of family reunions. 《Chinese Cultural Reader》is also a solid fortress of cultural inheritance. Whether you are a scholar or an ordinary reader, you can draw the nourishing cultural nutrients from it, just like a downpour of rain moistening the arid land of the soul and blooming into colorful cultural flowers.
