Chapter 375: Propose the Blockbuster Theory in History
In the warm atmosphere that was very contrary to the program's intention, Li Fan took the stage.
The straight and straight white standing collar straightened out the standard torso beauty, and is carefully maintained in thick black, which seems to be splashed in ink under the spotlight.
When he came to the center of the stage, the cheers at the scene reached a rush.
With the screams of female fans, Souyu boss Wang Xiaochuan replied frequently in the VIP seat and said in admiration to Huang Jin, the boss of Phoenix Station: "Li Fan's popularity foundation is really good, and he has turned the lecture into a fan meeting."
Huang Jin, the boss of Phoenix TV, smiled, and thought to himself: The reason why Xinjiang TV provides such great convenience is not just because they all look up at each other!
The cheers continued on, almost drowning the melodious sound of the piano. Li Fan signaled everyone to calm down, and then said: "Hello everyone, I am Li Fan."
"Shishen Li, don't tell yourself."
"Who doesn't know you in China?"
"Li Fan, I am Sun Tong!"
...
Li Fan continued with a helpless smile on his face, "Thank you for your love for me. Please give the same warm applause to the international pianist Mr. Li Di, thank you Mr. Li Di!"
After the applause stopped, Li Fan said: "Here, thank you for the invitation from Xinjiang TV's "Lectures of the Sons". After receiving the invitation, I was so frightened and ashamed of myself. I never expected that one day I would be lucky enough to be on such a stage.
Due to limited level and lack of experience, my series is a one-man statement. It is destined to be mixed with many personal opinions, and there will inevitably be mistakes. Here I will say sorry to you first. Please forgive me, thank you.
The lectures I bring to you have a popular name: "A Brief Talk on Western History". This series of lectures has a total of 14 lectures. Starting next week, it will be broadcast every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. It is expected that I will accompany you for a month."
"good!"
"That's great, it's better to spend two more months!"
Some girl suddenly shouted in a sharp voice: "We can't hear enough of you chanting scriptures!"
There was laughter at the scene and Li Fan's lecture began.
"What is the West? We usually call Europe at the western end of Eurasian Great 6 the West. We all know that the history of the East has a long history, so is the same in Western history? Let's trace it back together.
When we mention the source of Western history, most of the things that come to mind are Greece and Rome. The ancient Greece and Rome were the cradle of Western Ming, but we are going to push forward today!
The Mesopotamian region in West Asia and Egypt in North Africa were called the "Ancient Near East" in ancient times. It was one of the earliest sources of Ming Dynasty in the world, and produced brilliant Ming Dynasty and nourished the Greek and Roman Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, our "A Brief Talk on Western History" starts from the ancient Near East!
…”
The audience listened patiently with their chins on their backs. In the front seat, Professor Diao took away his son's cell phone and scolded: "Let's listen carefully, I know how to play with my cell phone."
Tonight, Li Fan needs to record three lectures in a row, which will take about three hours.
The lecture was slowly being told by Li Fan. Audiences who like history were immersed in the ocean of knowledge and benefited greatly. Female fans who like appearance looked at Li Fandai quietly, their minds almost blank.
...
The recording of the first lesson was completed, and the second lesson was reached.
Li Fan slowly paced on the stage while remotely controlling ppT: "What are the four ancient Ming Kingdoms? Which audience member knows about it?"
A student stood up and replied: "Ancient Barron, ancient India, ancient Egypt and our country."
Li Fan: "Okay, please sit down. The four ancient Ming countries are controversial, so I won't discuss them. What are the criteria for judging these four ancient Ming countries? Foreign academic circles have been arguing endlessly.
Let me briefly talk about the four more reasonable standards:
First, the excavated sites must have cities and can accommodate 5 ooo people.
Second, it requires the use of words.
Third, there must be complex etiquette buildings.
Fourth, the use of metallurgy.
…”
When the recording reached the second half of the third phase, Professor Diao rushed to the bathroom. When he returned to the entrance of the studio, Li Fan's recording of the third phase was almost over.
At this time, Li Fan is about to tell the audience an extremely important theory in the historical community, a theory that has not yet appeared in time and space.
Li Fan: "There has been a great and incredible period in human history, around the 5th century BC.
In this short period of time, the Chinese Kingdom, Indian Ming, Persian Ming, Jewish Ming and Greek Ming Ming developed rapidly, and a large number of ideological masters appeared on a large scale in various regions!
In that era, when the Greek wise men were thinking about the relationship between people and things on the Adriatic coast; the Indian wise men were thinking about the relationship between man and God by the Ganges River; the Chinese wise men were thinking about the relationship between man and man by the Yellow River.
Europe, which is thinking about people and things, has born the natural science of Da; Indians who are thinking about people and God are keen on the practice of nature; while our schools of thought are all thinking about the relationship between people.
This is a very strange period, as if the Ming area was divided and the division of labor was clearly entered into an emergency extension!
What is amazing is that although our country, India, East and Greece are far apart and the transportation and information are blocked, all the civilized nations are experiencing a different spiritual movement at this time.
During this period, Socrates, Plato, Sakyamuni, Homer, Archimedes, Confucius, and Lao Tzu were born...
These sages created brilliant ideological wisdom and laid the spiritual foundation of the entire human race. Until today, we are still attached to this foundation and cannot overcome it.
Around the 5th century BC, within the range of 25 degrees to 35 degrees north latitude, I call this specific period of human wisdom explosion the 'axial era'!
(The big screen, the four big words "Axial Era" are shown.)
At this time, the audience was still very normal and listened to Li Fan's story with interest. Ordinary audiences thought that their own knowledge was limited, so they naturally did not realize the meaning of the four words "axial era".
However, Professor Diao Hongyan, who had just returned to his seat, looked blankly at the four big words on the big screen.
Axial Age?
When he heard the term "axial era", Professor Diao Hongyan was also confused for a moment. Li Fan actually created a new term himself?
"Axial Age" is not a noun, but a famous theory in the historical community in previous lives. It was formally proposed by Jaspers in 1949, and thus gave birth to other academic branches!
Of course, like other theories, some historians became aware of this before Jaspers proposed the "Axial Age", but Jaspers was the one who systematically conducted the publication and research!
Of course, some historians have some awareness of this period of intellectual explosion in the fifth century BC, but Li Fan was the first person in this time and space to publicly determine the theory of the "axial era".
Li Fan continued: "Around 500 AD, within the range of 25 degrees to 35 degrees north latitude, in specific historical periods and specific areas, each of the different bright lights burst out with brilliant wisdom at the same time, shining human history and laying the foundation of human thought and spiritual foundation.
And in the next 2 ooo years, to this day, we humans have been living by all the thoughts and creations produced by the Axial Period.
Moreover, every new leap of mankind is to review this period and be rekindled by it. The awakening of the potential of the axial period and the return, or revival of the potential of the axial period, always provide the driving force of the spirit.
So, what exactly caused this "axial era"?
Is it the emperor's choice or the natural exhibition of human history?
Can our future give birth to the next axis era and reshape our new soul foundation?
Please watch the next episode and we will continue to discuss it!"
Under the extremely warm applause of the audience, Li Fan left the stage and headed straight for the backstage.
"Dad, stop being alone, go!"
Professor Diao took back his mind and stood up, but his brows were still frowning tightly. His head was filled with the four words "Axial Age".
"Dad, what are you thinking?"
Professor Diao glanced at his son and said, "I was wondering, why did I have a useless son like you?!"
"Say this again!"
The audience left one after another, and the audience's feelings were all the way:
"I used to think that our Huaxia Ming is the greatest Ming in the world, and other Mings are vulnerable. After listening to tonight's lecture, I was so narrow-minded and ignorant."
"You are a typical self-indulgent type. Put down the textbooks and open your eyes to see the world!"
"It turns out that 7ooo years ago, the city states in the Mesopotamia had gold and silver ore smelting experiments. It's so amazing!"
"Axial Age, why is the 'Axial Age' so amazing? I'll come again when I record it next time!"
...
There are also those whose audiences are not focused on the lecture content:
"Li Fan is really handsome, my prince charming!"
"I saw the real person today, and I have no desires and no desires from now on!"
"I have both desires and desires, and I want to give birth to him a baby!"
"Don't, don't try to lower the future appearance of 'Baby Li'!"
...
The audience is better at the mysterious "axial era", but it is impossible to realize that this ordinary lecture will give birth to a new and profound theory in the historical community.
No one understood the scene, but Professor Diao understood it. The breeze was gentle on the night. He ran away from Phoenix Building and looked up at the direction of the studio on the building, with a faint premonition in his heart.
It is rare to propose a new theory from the vast history. If he can deeply analyze this theory in the next episode, perhaps the next topic similar to the equivalent of "new textual research" will be born.
Will it be?
Professor Diao doesn’t know, after all, the fourth lecture of the “Axial Age” has not been recorded yet!
But he felt this excitement and imagination. After all, the person who proposed this theory was Li Fan.
This is a person who has created a new textual study!
This is a person who is refreshing people's perception of him all the time!
Chapter completed!
