重新写了一下,那么都错误,真是汗颜!
Greatness, influence someone imposing on the society, can only be named by the person behind him or her. When the word greatness coming into our mind, we assume the fame we give will be certainly enduring, if not so it will be of no significance. Then whether the value created by a person will not miss in the river of history can exclusively decide by the scholarships or people behind, and the claim of being great persuasive persuasive on the condition that the respect and reputation attribute to him not retreated by the people after him.
Concerning the realm of arts, someone we mark as avant-courier may have been misunderstood by his contemporaries and receive no approval from the establishment of his time. The acknowledge is not given until the critics and the audiences-years after his exist-can apprehend him, and then appreciate him, Such as the well-known artist Van Gogh, who is known by everyone in the modern world, but held no attention from th contemporaries and left the world with seldom sympathy. The appropriate comment of being great can only given rightfully by the people years after their deaths to artists just like Van Gogh, for ahead of their own times greatly.
When the field of politics is concerned, the estimation will often be tortured by the person of the same era. The era of the political leader may have credited extols and admires to him which he do not actually deserve, given his dominant position or influenced by propaganda of media of that time, or just catering for the appetites of the incumbent for some self-interest pursuits. Take the Chinese leader chairman Mao for example, whether the publicists or the quotidian people are in such an admiration for him that they praise him as omnipotence, a word should given to no human under any condition. Not until recently that his incorrect political decisions are rationally discussed in public, and the reputation he deserved attains accordingly. We should enlightened by this case, that the people of same era with the person to give evaluation will not only over look his achievements, but also provide them with inappropriate eulogies, which can only be corrected by the people after them.
I cannot be ignorance of the fact that some people who have been branded as great at their own times and did endure the test of time. Even if it were not the coincidence of history, or the excessively observant critics at his times, however, we cannot declare their greatness an enduring one, until it go down through the river of history and then pan out again by the people at the low reaches. Thus, the determination of real greatness still have to been in the hand of the offer spring.
In retrospect to the history of our civilization, more often than not some great minds and voice are buried in oblivion and not digged out until many years later, while some others we claimed as great, and put them on the table for oblation,for which have to retreat into regret and self-mockery in the end. All these lessons tell that before making any generalization of something concerning the values, the standards, say greatness one of them, we should agree that the real one should be that endures the test of time, in another word, only off spring are qualified to give conclusion. |
