Fu Min, the son of Fu Lei.

Fu Lei (1908- 1966) is a famous literary translator and critic in China. He has translated a wealth of works in his life, which is characterized by vivid expressions, fluent writing, rich words and changeable colors. Thirty-four translated works, including romain rolland's representative works Christopher john cleese, Beethoven, Michelangelo Kiki and Tolstoy, won Nobel Prize in Literature; Voltaire's Jarman and High Ba Long; Dana's artistic philosophy; Balzac's Gao Laotou and Eugenie Grandet 15 masterpieces. As a literary critic, his subtle comments on Zhang Ailing's novels set an example for academic circles to make text criticism easy to understand. As a music connoisseur, he wrote a beautiful appreciation of Beethoven, Mozart and Chopin.

Mr. Fu Lei is magnanimous and resolute. He was persecuted at the beginning of the "Cultural Revolution". 1In the early morning of September 3, 966, he and his wife Zhu Meifu both died in anger, tragically ending their lives. Fu Lei's tragic death is not only the strongest accusation against the absurd "Cultural Revolution" in China, but also fully shows the dignity of humanistic intellectuals with conscience and sense of justice.

Letters from Fu Lei is a collection of letters written by Fu Lei, a famous literary translator and literary critic in China, to his son. It excerpts from Mr. Fu Lei's 1954 to 1966. The longest letter has more than 7,000 words. Between the lines, it is full of the father's love and expectation for his son, as well as his lofty feelings for the country and the world.

Fu Lei said that his letter to his son has several functions: first, to discuss art; Second, stimulate the feelings of young people; Thirdly, cultivate Fu Cong's writing style and thoughts; Fourth, be a faithful "mirror". The content of the letter is more about art and life than trivial matters, instilling the noble sentiments that an artist should have, letting his son know "the honor and disgrace of the country and the dignity of art" and being an "artist with both ability and political integrity and outstanding personality".

It is human nature to love his son, but Fu Lei's love for Fu Cong did not degenerate to that vulgar gentleness, but always put morality and art first and licking calves second. Just as his strict discipline of Fu Cong's childhood is not recognized by ordinary people, it really comes from his deeper love for his son. It can be said that as role models of China's parents, Fu Lei and his wife have taken great pains to cultivate their two children: Fu Cong, a famous piano master, and Fu Min, a special English teacher, are successful manifestations of their educational thoughts such as being a man first, getting married later, surpassing themselves, thinking independently and teaching students in accordance with their aptitude.

Because this book is a letter from a father to his son, it is a proverb written on paper, so it is as touching as a clear spring flowing in the mountains and white clouds rolling in the blue sky.

This book is an excellent reading for teenagers' ideological cultivation and a classic model of quality education. Since its publication, this book has a profound and far-reaching enlightenment on people's morality, thoughts, sentiments and cultural accomplishment. "Letters from Fu Lei" won the first prize of the first national excellent youth reading, and was also listed as one of the large-scale series of "100 excellent books of China literature in the past century". Up to now, its circulation for more than 20 years has reached 165438+ ten thousand copies, which is enough to prove its great influence. A Letter from Fu Lei is a "painstaking teaching article full of fatherly love"; It is also "the best reading for art apprentices"; It is also a profound portrayal of ordinary typical intellectuals in modern China. For us students, it is more worth reading.

Fu Cong was born in a family full of artistic atmosphere and academic spirit on1March, 934 10. His father Fu Lei is a famous scholar, art critic and literary translator. Fu Cong attended primary school intermittently for several years in his childhood, mainly under the supervision of his father at home. At the age of eight and a half, he began to learn piano. At the age of nine, he studied under the Italian conductor and pianist and Liszt's disciple Mei Baiqi. 1946 After Mei Baiqi died, she basically taught herself. 1947, she studied in Shanghai Datong Middle School. 1948, moved to Kunming with his parents. He studied in Yuexiu Middle School in Kunming and Foreign Languages Department of Yunnan University, and stopped learning the piano. 195 1 year, I went back to my parents who went back to Shanghai one year earlier and studied piano with Soviet pianist Mrs. Blancstein for one year. Because my teacher moved to Canada, I had to study hard by myself. 1953 performed Beethoven's Piano Concerto No.5 with Shanghai Symphony Orchestra, which was a great success. In the same year, he won the third place in the 4th World Youth and Student Festival Piano Competition held in Burgass. 1954 went to study in Poland and won the third place in the piano competition under the guidance of famous musicians. 1954 went to Poland to study, and studied under Professor Dewitz Ji, a famous musician and piano educator. 1955 won the third place in the 5th Chopin International Piano Competition and the best prize in Mazzuca in March. 1In the late autumn of 958, he graduated with honors from Huasha National Conservatory of Music. At the end of 1958, due to historical reasons, he was forced to move to London, England. 1April, 1979, he was invited to return to China to attend the parents' rehabilitation meeting and the ashes placement ceremony. In the 1980s, he returned to China to perform and give lectures every year. 1982, he was hired as an adjunct professor in two conservatories in China and Shanghai. 1983, he was awarded an honorary doctorate by the University of Hong Kong.

1959 At the beginning of this year, Fu Cong made her debut at the Royal Festival Concert Hall in London, and successfully cooperated with the famous conductor Julie. Since then, Fu Cong has traveled all over five continents and won the reputation of "Piano Poet" on the international music stage for nearly 50 years. Hermann hesse, the late German writer, poet, musician, critic and Nobel Prize in Literature laureate, wrote an article praising Fu Cong, saying, "From a technical point of view, Fu Cong really performed flawlessly. Not inferior to cortot or Rubinstein. But I suck not only the perfect performance, but the real Chopin. "

In fact, the father around us is as ordinary and great as Fu Lei. Our father often whitens his hair for our livelihood, for our study, for us to go to a good school and for us to get a good grade. This is the real greatness, this is the real father! Fu Lei can be said to be an outstanding representative among the ten thousand fathers of Qian Qian and Qian Qian. His love for children makes them grow up healthily.
