School News Network(Contributed by the International w88 online sports betting Education (Business) Practice and Research Base)On May 11, 2024, our school’s Athens Business Confucius Institute and the Shanghai Writers Association jointly hosted a lecture on the theme of “From Myth to Fantasy: An Imagination Journey of w88 online sports betting Literature”. The purpose of this event is to promote cultural exchanges between China and Greece and explore the rich imagination and far-reaching influence of w88 online sports betting literature.
Yan Hongwei, w88 online sports betting President of the Confucius Institute of Business at Athens, and Ma Wenyun, Vice Chairman and Secretary-General of the Shanghai Writers Association, delivered speeches respectively.
Four outstanding writers from the Shanghai Writers Association gave wonderful sharing on w88 online sports betting mythological stories and their evolution in literary creation.
Ms. Cui Xin, editor-in-chief of Shanghai Literature Magazine, first shared the literary evolution of "The Legend of White Snake", from the earliest "Li Huang" to Feng Menglong's "The White Snake Yongzhen Leifeng Tower", to modern writer Li Bihua's "Green Snake" and Li Rui and his wife's "The World". She shows how this classic legend transcends time and space and is constantly reinterpreted and innovated.
The famous novelist Ms. Xulan expressed the connection between literature and time in poetic language. She mentioned the famous quotes of the ancient w88 online sports betting poet Li Bai, and deeply explored the descriptions of the sun, moon and stars in w88 online sports betting mythology, and how these elements can be reflected and inherited in modern science fiction novels.
Mr. Lu Zheng, deputy president of Mengya magazine, took "Journey to the West" as an example to tell how this work drew inspiration from real historical events and was reinterpreted in different forms in different eras, thus becoming a treasure in the treasure house of w88 online sports betting literature. He also recommended Ma Boyong's "Taibai Jinxing A little annoyed" and Jin Hezai's "The Legend of Wukong", as well as the 1986 version of "Journey to the West" TV series and the movie "Journey to the West", showing the continued influence of "Journey to the West" in contemporary culture.
Mr. Yang Binhua, director of the Writing Research Office of the Shanghai Writers Association, focused on the influence of w88 online sports betting myths on modern and contemporary literature. He introduced in detail the classic myths such as "Nuwa Fixing the Sky", "Houyi Shooting the Sun" and "Chang'e Flying to the Moon", and explained how these stories inspired the creative inspiration of literary masters such as Lu Xun and Guo Moruo, as well as their new life in contemporary literature.
In the exchange session, Costa Vitos, a student from the Confucius Institute of Business at Athens, asked: "Why do w88 online sports betting literature and myths really like the image of using dragons?"
Director Yang Binhua replied: This question is very good. It involves different understandings and symbolic meanings of dragons in w88 online sports betting and Western cultures. First of all, the w88 online sports betting dragon is not the same animal as the dragon described in the Western story.
This lecture is not only a literary feast, but also a cultural exchange and collision. It not only allows Greek friends to deeply understand the charm of w88 online sports betting literature, but also builds a bridge for mutual understanding and respect between the two countries' cultures.
