10 classic couplets, read the history of Yuelu Academy 1040.

This year is the founding of Yuelu Academy 1040. Located on the picturesque west bank of Xiangjiang River, this college is one of the "Four Great Academies" in ancient China. It has been 1000 years since Kaibao was established in the Northern Song Dynasty for nine years.

Today, let's read the plaque couplets of Yuelu Academy together and feel the classic and unique charm of Yuelu Academy.

gate

Only Chu is expected;

Prosperity is in the future.

The gate of the Academy was built in the Song Dynasty. The existing city gate was built in the fourth year of Zhengde in Ming Dynasty. Just above the gate, the plaque of Yuelu Academy in Song Zhenzong hangs.

According to legend, during Jiaqing period of Qing Dynasty, the academy was overhauled. After the completion, the master asked Shan Chang (Dean) Yuan to write couplets. Yuan told the students to respond with "only Chu has talents", but it is difficult for everyone to get the result. Gong Sheng Zhang Zhongjie arrived and blurted out: "In Sri Lanka, it is prosperous." The first part is from Zuo Zhuan Xiang Gong Twenty-six Years: "Only Chu has material, Jin is practical"; The second part is from the Analects of Confucius Taibo: "When Tang Yu was in trouble, he was prosperous in Sri Lanka".

Many people misunderstand this couplet and think that Hunan people have a strong atmosphere. But "Wei" is meaningless as a word here. It means that Chu (especially Hunan) is full of talents, and the academies are particularly prosperous.

Toumen

Thousands of years of Chu materials are derived from this;

Modern Auspicious Studies and Japan's Glory.

Toumen is the first entrance to the Academy, located at the eastern end of the central axis, and was completed in 1986. There is a plaque of "Millennium University" presented by Changsha Alumni Association of Hunan University at the celebration of 10 10, which was written by Ou Yangxun, a famous Hunan calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty.

The couplet was written by Yu Yu. Yu Yu, former researcher of Institute of Philosophy of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, vice chairman of China Calligraphy Association.

Over the thousands of years since Yuelu Academy came out, the position and role of the United Road in talent training and academic research, and the great influence of Huxiang Studies on modern China's academics.

opening of the ear

Accept Bigfoot;

Famous mountains in Tibet.

Behind the gate, it turned out to be a ceremony hall. When the Confucian Temple was expanded in the first year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty, the second gate was built. There is a plaque of "Famous Mountain Altar Seats" hanging in front of the door, and the author has no way to verify it. The existing plaque was copied by 1984 and inscribed by He, a famous calligrapher in Qing Dynasty. The "famous mountain" here refers to Yuelu Mountain, the tail peak of the seventy-two peaks of Hengshan Mountain in Nanyue.

Couplets were written by the inspector of Hunan University in the late Qing Dynasty. The first part of the book, Shangshu Shundian, said: "Being at the foot of the mountain is fascinating." "Preface to Taishigong's Historical Records" Volume II says: "Tibet's famous mountains are attached to the capital, and they must be saints and gentlemen." It means that Yuelu Academy is hidden in the vast forest and the vast Yuelu Mountain.

classroom

If you do well, you must sharpen your knife;

Diligence is good at diligence, but not good at leisure.

The couplets and "seeking truth from facts" plaque hanging in front of the eaves of the lecture hall were written by Bin Bucheng, president of Hunan Institute of Technology in modern times. Bin Bucheng was the president of Hunan Institute of Technology in the early Republic of China. 19 17 Hunan institute of technology moved to yuelu college.

The first part is from The Analects of Confucius Wei Linggong, and the second part is from Han Yu's Jin Xuejie. It means that to get twice the result with half the effort, you must be good at using tools; If a person wants to master his research, he must work hard and avoid laziness.

Right and wrong are judged by yourself, reputation is heard by others, and gains and losses are settled by numbers. The top of Yuelu Mountain, the breeze of Lang Yue, Tai Chi can be leisurely;

How to repay the kindness of relatives, how to build people's lives, how to spread the sage's way, how to get on the stage of He Xi, how to balance the clouds and how to return to Sven.

This is the longest couplet in the lecture hall. Written by Kuang Min, Dean of Yuelu Academy in Qing Dynasty. Kuang Minben (1699- 1782) was employed as the head of Yuelu Academy in the 19th year of Qianlong (1754). The original couplet was destroyed during the Anti-Japanese War, and now it is supplemented by Yan Jialong.

The first part: self-examination of right and wrong, reputation is judged by others, and gains and losses are determined by fate and cannot be forced. When we climb to the top of the mountain and feel the breeze of the moon, we can know the truth of everything in the world, and the gains and losses of honor and disgrace can be put aside. The second part: how to repay the cultivation of the country and the kindness of parents, how to make ordinary people live a better life, and how to spread the excellent Chinese culture. Climb the Hexi platform at the top of the mountain and overlook Hengyun Xiangshui, and you will find the answer. In fact, this attitude towards life is also the embodiment of Confucianism, that is, "if you are rich, you will help the world, and if you are poor, you will protect yourself."

Beizha

I have learned a lot and met the sea of humanities and law here.

Show the crown of Sanxiang and see the sages and famous mountains.

The couplet leading to the lecture hall of Xiangshui School in the north was written by Zuo, a famous student of Yuelu Academy in Qing Dynasty. Because Zuo studied in Xiangshui School, he hung here.

Ninety-six: That sentence comes from the Biography of Hanshu: "Liu Xiang is a local, and nineteen-six is different." Later, it was called the general term of various academic schools. Fahai, the language of Buddhism, is a metaphor of Buddhism, which means that Buddhism is as deep and broad as the sea. "Buddhist Vimalakīrti Sutra": "Great doctors die of old age, and there is no limit to the ceremony." Couplets refer to the integration and intersection of various schools in Yuelu Academy, which has formed a profound cultural heritage. Yuelu Mountain is beautiful, towering above the land of Sanxiang. All the sages and scholars in history came here to give lectures and study, making Yuelu Mountain a famous cultural mountain.

Confucian temple

My road to the south was originally a vein of Lianxi;

The River of No Return is nothing more than the aftermath of Hunan water.

This couplet was not specially written for Yuelu Academy, but by Wang Kaiyun, a scholar in Qing Dynasty. Wang Kaiyun, a native of Xiangtan, gave lectures at Chengnan Academy in Changsha, Hunan, and worked as Zeng Guofan's chief of staff. According to legend, Wang Kaiyun once gave lectures in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. In order to test his talent, local officials deliberately inquired about the genre and origin of his knowledge, so he casually wrote the couplets above.

"Tao" is Neo-Confucianism; "Lianxi" is Zhou Dunyi, the founder of Neo-Confucianism. "Great River" refers to the Yangtze River. "Xiangshui" is Xiangjiang River. Couplets appropriately show the responsibility of Hunan people and Huxiang culture to modern China.

Shiwuxuan

Have a beautiful heart and a thousand buildings;

Barometric Long Yuan 100 ft building.

Planting pure fragrance, three generations are still straight;

The heart of the alliance is loyal to love, and after six classics, it is a strange article.

Hunan is known as the hometown of Qujia, and Yuelu Academy began to build a shrine for Qu Yuan in the Qing Dynasty.

The plaque "Quzi Temple" and couplets at the main entrance of Quzi Temple were written by Shen Peng, former chairman of China Calligraphers Association. Couplets imply that Qu Yuan's cultivation and sentiment are as pure and noble as orchids and Cao Zhi, and praise Qu Yuan's unswerving patriotism and loyalty.

Love dusk pavilion on Yuelu Mountain

The trail is red and comfortable in the evening, and 500 peaches are newly planted;

The gorge clouds are dark green, and a pair of tame cranes are waiting for the cage.

Love Night Pavilion is a classic building in China pavilions. Luo Dian, the head of Yuelu Academy, was founded in the 57th year of Qing Qianlong. Formerly known as "Hongye Pavilion", it was later changed to "Love Evening Pavilion".

The pavilion was originally hung with couplets written by Luo Dianshan: at first glance, the stunning red has been lost, and 500 peaches have been newly planted; Light Cong Cui and send a pair of docile cranes to the cage. Now the couplet is rewritten by Cheng, the three-year dean of Yuelu Academy ~
