After listening to Han Xianru's explanation, Jiang Shuiyuan was a little dejected: If academic research is only to verify a certain research method, not to obtain a universal truth, then what is the point of reading and doing research?
Han Xianru seemed to see the confusion and confusion of Jiang Shuiyuan, and asked with a smile: "Why, think the conclusion is more important than the method?"
"Yeah! I think-"
"I think the methods are false, but the conclusion is real and practical things? I know what you want to say, because I thought so at first.??????Quge w w?w?. " Han Xianru interrupted Jiang Shuiyuan's words, "Have you heard this sentence? 'It is better to teach people how to fish than to teach people how to fish. Teaching people how to fish can only save the urgent situation for a while. Teaching people how to fish can solve the needs of a lifetime'. In fact, the conclusion drawn by the research is that a lively fresh fish can often be barely convinced; while the research method is like a fishing net that can catch countless fresh fish. It can not only be used everywhere, but also replicated without restrictions, but also benefit the world and spread for a long time.
"Take Yan Ruoyu, a native of Huai'an Prefecture we mentioned just now, he established his outstanding position in the academic history of the Qing Dynasty with a book "Shangshu Ancient Literature Review". Looking back today, there are actually many questions worth discussing in this book "Shangshu Ancient Literature Review", and "Shangshu Ancient Literature Review" has been criticized by many people since the Tang and Song Dynasties. Yan Ruoyu is not the first scholar to prove or identify falsehood. Why is he still so famous that he ranks first among many outstanding scholars of Jiang Fan's "Records of the Masters of the Chinese Studies of the Kingdom" and becomes an inescapable monument in academic history? The reason is his research methods and the great spirit reflected in the research methods.
"The Book of Ancient Literature is one of the Confucian classics, and it is sacred and inviolable. For thousands of years, from emperors to ordinary scholars have regarded it as a criterion and studied it carefully. However, Yan Ruoyu ignored its sacred cloak and regarded it as the object of questioning and verification. He conducted research based on the principle of "believe and have signs, but no signs and no signs", opened the style of doubting the scriptures, and quoted the classics based on the ancients by empirically distinguishing falsehoods. He listed 128 pieces of evidence from the catalogs of books, rules and regulations, astronomical calculations, article formats, and texts of the metal and stone to prove that the "Book of Ancient Literature" circulating in the world is fake.
"This kind of research method that ignores the conclusions of the predecessors and only speaks based on evidence has a profound influence and even became the core concept of Puxue in the Qing Dynasty. After him, Liu Fenglu suspected the "Zuo Zhuan of the Spring and Autumn Period", Wei Yuan suspected the "Book of Songs Mao Zhuan". When he arrived at Kang Youwei, he even believed that "Zhou Li", "Yi Li", "Ancient Li", "Zuo Zhuan", "Mao Shi" were all forged by Liu Xin in the late Western Han Dynasty. As far as the aftermath was concerned, the "Ancient History Breaking School" represented by Gu Yinggang, a famous professor at Jingshi University in the early years of the Republic of China, also conducted a comprehensive review of the ancient history recorded in the classics of the pre-Qin and Han dynasties. Isn't this a living example of how methods are more important than conclusions?"
Jiang Shuiyuan felt something: "No wonder the "Sutra of the General Catalogue of Siku" praised "Shangshu Ancient Literature and Certification" as "repeatedly scrutinized to eliminate the great doubts of the ages, and the study of verification has not been before." So that's it! I roughly read "Shangshu Ancient Literature and Certification" in the library before, and I always felt that the Hongbo Jing in the review was actually not as good as Gu Yanwu's "Rizhilu" and Qian Daxin's "Ten Jiazhai Yang Xinlu". Why do the Sikuguan ministers praise this book so much? It turns out that the root is here!"
Han Xianru was aroused by the river water source, and took a sip of tea and continued: "For example, another hometown sage in Huai'an Prefecture, Mr. Sun Baixi, has been the only one in the past three or four hundred years, regardless of depth or breadth. His knowledge has been the best in the past three or four hundred years. In terms of traditional physics, chemistry, astronomy, and today's fashionable genetics, electronics, and computer science, it has left his mark. Why can he have such a profound influence on the science and even social development in the past century? I think in addition to his great achievements in scientific research and the founding of the Republic of China, a very important factor is the method he embodied in scientific research, which still provides a new perspective for many scholars in various fields in the world.
"For example, his theory of relativity has profoundly influenced the development of world philosophy in the past century, promoted the transformation of philosophy in the 20th century, and gradually penetrated into various cultural and ideological fields. Using his quantum theory thinking and methods to study biology, cryptography, computer science and even economics, has formed new interdisciplinary disciplines such as quantum biology, quantum cryptography, quantum information processing, quantum economics, etc. The concept of interdisciplinary division and disciplines was really founded by Mr. Sun Baixi at Jingshi University!"
Han Xianru immediately changed the subject: "Of course, it is not easy to create a new academic research method that leads the trend of the times! Those who can do this are basically the founders of various schools. Ordinary people like the old man and me can only follow the footsteps, pick up others' teeth, and do some tricks of repairing. However, Xiaoyou Jiang, you are outstanding in qualifications and extremely intelligent. As long as you are willing to work hard, you may not be able to compete with Yan Ruoyu and Sun Yuanqi in the future, so you must work hard and strive for strength!"
Jiang Shuiyuan could only smile bitterly and said to himself: Even if I have the ability to go against the will of heaven, I have to be destined to live to that age!
Han Xianru naturally didn't know what Jiang Shuiyuan was thinking, and said to himself: "It's difficult to do academic research, and it's easy to say it. In the final analysis, it's just one sentence: smart people put in a hard job. First, they have to be smart people. Stupid people can only do things that follow the rules, and smart people can have strange ideas in their heads. Secondly, they have to put in a hard job, not a hard job to figure out the situation in their field, make fiction every day, and build cars behind closed doors. No matter how smart they are, it's useless. In a car accident, fall off a cliff, you can gain the ability to achieve perfection and thoroughness. That's a novel, not a reality."
This is the benefit of asking famous teachers and scholars for advice. They can give you a few random comments on their academic methods and academic paths, and they can make you suddenly understand. Sometimes you don’t have to talk when you meet. Just sit there quietly and feel their academic style, which can also benefit you a lot. However, Jiang Shuiyuan is not in the mood to feel Han Xianru’s bright and clear moon, and said in a bad mood: “But I think I am quite stupid and don’t know anything!”
"It's right to think that I don't understand anything! Don't talk about you, even I, a teacher who has taught for decades, feels that I don't understand anything." Han Xianru looked around the books on the walls and shook his head with emotion, "That's right, I know that I don't know, and I bravely admit it, it's already considered that I have reached the threshold for academic research."
Han Xianru's sensual appearance seemed like a strange uncle holding a lollipop to take the little girl to see goldfish, but Jiang Shuiyuan was determined and never forgot the purpose of visiting: "Now all kinds of theories are fighting in my head, and I am confused like a slush, and there are questions everywhere. However, the Chinese studies and selection competition for middle school students in the whole mansion is about to begin, what should I do?"
This is the root of Jiang Shuiyuan's distress: If you can't even convince yourself, how can you persuade the judges and the opponent's debaters?
Han Xianru stroked his beard and said, "Learning, knowledge, there will naturally be doubts after learning. So Zhu Wengong (Zhu Xi) described the process of studying and studying in this way: 'There is no doubt at the beginning of reading, and then gradually becomes doubtful, and then it is doubtful. After this, the doubts gradually resolved and have been integrated and integrated, without any doubts. Only then do you learn.' You are in a stage of gradually becoming doubtful and doubtful. When you read more books and think hard, you will be able to understand the theory of each school in the future, and the questions will melt with the ice and snow. This is the time to grind water, you cannot be anxious or annoyed!"
Jiang Shuiyuan was a little depressed: "According to what Mr. Han said, there is nothing to do except to study and study hard?"
"Of course, there are shortcuts in Zhongnan too!"
"Oh?" Jiang Shuiyuan immediately became interested.
Han Xianru didn't take Qiao: "In habit, everyone says 'doing knowledge', why is it 'doing' knowledge? Because knowledge is down-to-earth, word by word, not words. 'You are willing to sit on the bench for ten years, and the article is not written in half.' If you can't write a word on the paper, it is all catchphrase and empty! Only when you fall on the paper to form words is real. So someone once said this, if you want to understand a science, the fastest way is to write a book about this science by yourself. Because during the writing process, you will take the initiative to find information, clarify the context, and master the key points. If you want to eliminate confusion in the shortest time, you might as well write a book by yourself."
"Ah? Writing a book?" Jiang Shuiyuan was shocked.
"What's wrong with writing books? I think writing books is very sacred and elegant? Let me tell you, these days, cats, dogs, monsters, monsters and gods can write books, and publish them openly. Why can't you, a high school student with both good character and academic performance, write books?" Han Xianru said angrily, thinking that he was moved, "Besides, you just write books to hone your own knowledge, not to publish. What's the point of not writing?"
Jiang Shuiyuan's heart moved: Yes, what's wrong with writing a book? I can't touch it if the monk touches it?
