Yu Qiuyu


Born
in Yuyao, Zhejiang, China
August 23, 1946

Genre


Yu Qiuyu (余秋雨), born in 1946 in Yuyao, Zhejiang, is one of the well-known contemporary Chinese cultural and literary figures. With an enormous readership in China and overseas, his cultural explorations link China with the rest of the world and his bold and direct criticisms of certain cultural phenomena make him loved and detested in equal measure. In 1985, Yu became the youngest full professor in China at the age of 39, and later became the president of the Shanghai Theater Academy.

Quotes by Yu Qiuyu  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“一切伟大从外面看是一种无可抗拒的力量,从里面看则是一种无比智慧的秩序。秩序对于周边的无序有一种强大的吸附能力和整合能力,但是无序对于秩序也有一种不小的消解能力和颠覆能力,谁胜谁负,主要是看秩序能包含什么样的智慧浓度。”
Yu Qiuyu, 行者无疆

“这声惊呼,是从艺术良知发出的。真心的艺术家之间可以互不服气,可以心存芥蒂,但一到作品之前,大多能尽释前嫌。这并不仅仅是艺术功力的征服,而是一种被提炼成审美形式的高贵生命内质,构建了互相确认。”
Yu Qiuyu, 行者无疆

“放纵的结果只能是收敛,挥洒的结果只能是服从。”
Yu Qiuyu, 行者无疆
