Mr. Gu hongming's Chinese spirit really makes people feel different.With his own pen to maintain the dignity of Chinese Changed some westerners' prejudice against. However, with the development of The Times, some of Mr. Gu hongming's views were improper. His views on the absolute obedience of women to their husbands and the absolute obedience of their subjects to the monarch were definitely questionable.In that turbulent era, when foreigners generally looked down upon the Chinese, gu hongming wrote this book, and his spirit is praiseworthy.

In his book the Chinese spirit, gu draws comparisons between Chinese and americans, British, germans and French, but only the Chinese possess the four outstanding spiritual qualities of broadness, simplicity, depth and sensitivity.It is well known that Chinese is one of the most difficult languages in the world to learn. Although Chinese characters are full of charming charm, quite a few people still refuse to learn them.The authors think that Chinese is a language of the soul, why foreigners think Chinese hard to learn a language, while Chinese children and ordinary people feel very easy, this is because received a good education of foreigners are learning Chinese, use is already full of wisdom of the mind, not in spirit, in the western languages are mostly belongs to this type, and China's Chinese is the language of the heart.

But in China the women in this chapter I got was "excited", turned out to have his wife get married CongFu, husband for days, wifely submission and virtue, for the husband concubinage such bad habits, such as after the overthrow of the qing dynasty, and scholars trumpeting such bad habits, this let foreigners first impression of Chinese women is very bad.Chinese women were bound by the so-called three concord and four virtues for thousands of years, women's nature was suppressed, and women's rights were ignored. Therefore, the women's liberation movement was so enthusiastic and radical in the republic of China period, because Chinese women waited for this day for too long. Western countries emphasize that everyone is equal, and naturally men and women are also equal. And we yearn for such equality, the feminist movement is just so in full swing in our country.In today's society, women can participate in politics and business, and in the annual college entrance examination, there are many female top scorers. Chairman MAO zedong once said: "women hold up half the sky". In today's society, it is impossible to live without women. From this point of view, the current situation is quite different from the women described in Mr. Gu hongming's book.

I spent a whole month time to read this book, through this book, I understand the situation at that time, I know in China in the world to understand basic are colored glasses, in between the lines I felt Mr Ku hung-ming thick patriotic feelings, in my opinion, Mr Ku hung-ming is a pure nationalist, he told his motherland - China has a deep affection. I deeply admire him, he is a writer, a great patriotic man!
