今天忽然心血来潮,想跟大家介绍一种优美的古典中国文学。我会尽量深入浅出,还希望大家不会退避三舍。=x
文言文是一种旧式的文学,起源自中国古代。千百年来,无数的大诗人,大词家都以文言文为基础,写出现在我们家喻户晓的诗词歌赋。但自从五四运动后,当代的文人就以 (我手写我口)的口号,提倡白话文,也就是我们现在所熟悉的中文,而文言文也渐渐被淘汰了。
文言文有几个特点。
其一,文字的运用精简概要,尽可能以最少文文字来表达想要说的话。当然,因为如此,文言文作品就变得艰深难懂,作者想要表达的观点也变得含糊不清。
其二,文言文与白话文的文法大相径庭,如果我们从小就学习文言文,就应该能够得心应手。但是,由于白话文的语法及句子的结构已在我们的脑海里根深蒂固了,所以当我们读起文言文来,就变得别扭异常。
其三,读文言文作品时,得了解它的时代背景。这是因为古时候的作者喜欢举当代的例子与人名等等,如不知晓它的背景,就很难理解文章。
当然,还有许许多多的差异,在这里我就不赘陈述了。
文言文是中国五千年传统文化的精髓,如要更了解中国文化及历史,就得学习它。这就跟科学家学拉丁文的道理是一样的。
在初中(JC)时,我修读了CL(A),也因此学到了一些文学的粗浅知识。可叹的是当年的我太过不自律,因而未能真正体会到中华文化的精髓。现在要学习古文,却苦无名师指点,只能一步一脚印,循序渐进了。=(

You might be interested in zh-classical.wikipedia.org if you’re really into 文言. I read halfway through and died trying to understand – since I had to keep referring back to 白话 to get what it tried to say.
