To the Poet of the Future is an anthology of poems by Sernoux Da, which was translated and published for the first time in the Chinese world. For Sernoux, surrealism is not only a style, but also a school of poetry: it is an attempt to integrate poetry into life and a subversion of language and system. In this reading session, we invited Wang Jianzhao, the translator of "She has been waiting for the knife for too long", and Fan Ye, the translator of "To the Poet of the Future", and asked them to tell us about those exuberant and sensitive vitality, the love and poetry that gushed out.

A 17-year-old peasant woman whose legs were cut off by a mine has worn through more than a dozen Shuang Mu benches for 30 years, given birth to two children, built a house, knelt on an iron bench, and harvested ears of rice taller than her. Young people who have suffered from trauma and dryness spend twenty years sewing insoles and cross-stitch with their surviving upper limbs, weaving the time of paralysis and shock to support themselves and their families. This is not a novel, but a true story in Moss Never Disappears. At the end of this spring, Yuan Ling talked with Li Jingze and Danbao about "Moss Never Disappears" and the story of rebuilding life.

Speaker:Wu Jiamin (columnist)

Maybe you are not born with humor, or even a little old-fashioned. Doing a job that I don’t love in a city far from my hometown, but I don’t want to go home without achievement. Facing my feelings, I’m not handsome, and I’m a little timid and inferior. But as long as you consciously look for the rules of the game of "chasing love", instead of staying where you are and expecting others to take the initiative to find you and fall in love with you, you can get everything that seems not to belong to you, and you will get closer and closer to the ultimate happiness of life. Wu Jiamin’s "The Beast Gentleman" Beijing new book meeting and signing conference will teach you to become a Beast Gentleman on the spot and make the girl you like like like you!

We live in an ambiguous and troublesome era, and any black-and-white judgment will face the risk of generalizing. As a topic, contemporary gender identity, which is more and more complicated, is full of various internal contradictions: is gender political or politically correct? Is it a doctrine or a problem? For cultural producers, gender is the material for manufacturing consumer goods? Or is it an opportunity to stimulate action? In the first activity, we specially invited two groups of guests to discuss the common topic of "gender" from different angles at the same time and space. During the activity, the audience can freely go in and out between the two sites, and this parallel parallax is also the most intuitive embodiment of the inherent contradiction of the discussion topic.

Location:Room B13-14, Kerry Center, No.1 Guanghua Road, Chaoyang District

Speaker:Yi Yi (author)

Be shy first. Because I am the author, the second book is published, but this is the first new book sharing meeting in my life. The organizer said that someone would definitely come to the scene, so there is no need to come to the "same city" for activities. I think, in case no one comes at that time, it will be awkward to have an ice-breaker. Anyway, I will post an activity on my own "same city", and no one may necessarily see it. I don’t know how to write the details of the event, and I haven’t decided on the theme of the sharing meeting. In a word, I am a person with stories and fun. Say whatever you ask at the event. Many people are suspicious of my situation and still don’t understand it. Anyway, I can see the live one this time, and my doubts will be broken. I’m Yi Yi. Welcome to this long-planned meeting.

Guest:Zhang Lixian (publisher), zhangming (scholar of literature and history), Chen Tushou (scholar of literature and history), Shi Jiepeng (writer and scholar) and Yun Conglong (scholar).

To observe the changes of a society, we should not only pay attention to the psychological context of intellectuals and social elites at that time, but also absorb the psychological slices of the people and even the ordinary people. Most of the former have been preserved more or less through various channels, while the attitude of ordinary people towards the humanities of the world has almost been submerged as time goes by. Recently, Oriental Publishing House published Yun Conglong’s new work "Stars and Suqin". According to the author’s unexpected 35 personal letters, it restored the tortuous and touching emotional experience between two ordinary young people, namely the stars and Suqin, and showed the unique social ecology of that era, as well as the real picture of ordinary people’s work and life, ideals and beliefs, honor and disgrace and ups and downs, fear and helplessness. On Saturday, let’s walk into the world of stars and Suqin with several guests.

Location:Yanhuang Art Museum, No.9 Huizhong Road, Asian Games Village, Chaoyang District

Guest:Jaroslaw Balinski (artist), Chen Yiyong (artist), Zhao Shuyi (artist), etc.

With China’s reform and opening up, Beijing has become a frequent stop for people from all over the world. Coming to Beijing, a city with various cultural customs and living habits, "inadaptability" has constituted the pressure and confusion in the lives of "strangers" for a period of time. In this process of adaptation and running-in, they gradually felt the unique charm of Beijing-her complexity, diversity, and occasional randomness and slovenly. At present, the Yanhuang Art Museum’s exhibition "People from other places (XΡ nɡ) with the method of combining (zhèng) with (jǐng)" shows that these "serious" people from other places have nothing to do with homesickness and are complex and passionate about Beijing. On the afternoon of April 8th, the participating artists will personally make coffee to entertain the audience who come to the sharing session, and share their life in Beijing through the interpretation of their works.

Location:One-way space on the third floor of Aegean Shopping Center, No.12 Qisheng Middle Street, Chaoyang District

Guest:Zhu Yingchun (book designer, artist, book planner) and Laoshu (professor, School of Culture and Media, Central University of Finance and Economics).

The theme of "design, naivety" is actually difficult for you: is your naivety from nature, or thoughtful, or is it half nature and half design? Furthermore, what about the naivety in art? "Design, naivety" is also a vague expectation: Can the naivety in your works inspire artistic conception that design and art have not yet fully understood beyond the tide of Europe, America and Japan? Of course, the theme is just an introduction. Since both of them have a tree in their names, we can listen to the unrestrained conversation between the two trees.

This time, he will share more songs and stories behind them with everyone. He may not be the most dazzling one on the stage, but when he puts years and mountains and rivers into a man’s chest, his voice and his story may accompany us further.

Speaker:Yang Bincheng (lawyer)

Paragraph 1 of Article 20 of the Criminal Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC) stipulates: In order to protect the state, public interests, oneself or other people’s personal, property and other rights from ongoing unlawful infringement, the act of stopping unlawful infringement, which causes damage to the unlawful infringer, belongs to self-defense and does not bear criminal responsibility. However, in the formal case judgment, "justifiable defense" is rarely applied. For example, in the recent case of insulting mother in Shandong, many people thought that the murderer could be identified according to self-defense or excessive defense, but in the end he was sentenced for intentional injury. Why is "justifiable defense" so difficult to identify? In the actual situation, what is "justifiable defense"? If there is an emergency, how can we protect ourselves under the existing laws? This Saturday afternoon, we invited lawyer Yang Bincheng to explain to us what constitutes self-defense.
