读《丑陋的韩国人》有感
略读了金文学著的《丑陋的韩国人》， 书中有很多偏激的观点；似乎对韩国人过于贬低。老毛曾经说过，在任何有人群的地方都有左中右。金先生在书里大慨只提及最垃圾的那部分韩国文化。 我在美国所接触的韩国人，好象是属于好的那种人；或者说，我还没有机会观察到不好的方面。 从书中提到的一些问题上看，我觉得文革似乎并非一无是处。至少，文革彻底摧毁了5000年中国文化中的最有碍中国进入现代社会的那部分腐朽的儒家思想。 转载:中、日、韩这东亚三国不仅是一衣带水的邻邦，而且在历史上同属汉文化圈，不论是中国人、韩国人、日本 人，都可以从另外两个东亚国家的人身上看到自己的影子。可惜的是，三国之间的关系并不是亲如兄弟，敬如父兄，反而磨擦不断，殊为憾事。都说西方文化已经盛 极而衰，21世纪是东方文化的世纪，如果三国人不能互相了解，互相体谅，精诚团结，携手并进，又如何能顺应历史机遇，使东亚屹立于世界民族之林？ 本书作者金文学出生于中国，朝鲜族人，留学日本多年，专攻比较文学、比较文化及文化人类学。独一无 二的经历和学术背景使作者能够深刻地理解中、日、韩三国的不同之处，敏锐地发现常人所不能看到的细节，在书中，作者对东亚三国的文化、历史、传统、习俗、 观念、社会生活等方面进行了有趣的对比分析，言人所未言，道人所未道，诸多发现，读后给人以很大的触动和启发。 本书作者发现的中、日、韩三国有趣而发人深省的差异，远不止这些： 中、日、韩三国人坐地铁，日本人一声不吭，只盯着一个地方目不转睛；中国人眼睛乱转，一刻也闲不住地东张西望；韩国人则吵吵闹闹，喋喋不休。 关于吵架，韩国人光吵不动手，是儒教式的；日本人只动手不吵，是武士式的，中国人又吵又动手，是充满谋略的立体战。 对于性，日本人闭口不说，文字大胆，身体开放；韩国人满嘴劳话，却不敢形诸文字，思想保守；中国人是中庸之道，介于二者之间。 韩国的妻子们重感情，对丈夫强势而热情；日本的妻子们对丈夫百依百顺，温柔体贴，但很难了解其内心；中国妻子们既重感情，又有城府，将丈夫们训练得服服贴贴。 中国人到处是墙，心中有墙，因此历史上闭关锁国；日本人地上无墙，心中无墙，因此能大量吸收外来文化；韩国人大多是半截墙，因此半遮半掩，对外来文化欲拒还迎，心态复杂。 中国是大陆德行，圆滑世故，雍容大度；日本是岛国德行，心胸狭窄；韩国是半岛德行，自尊心强，心怀“怨恨“。 中国人喜欢牡丹，国色天香，象征荣华富贵；日本人喜欢樱花，刹那盛开，瞬间凋零，象征残酷之美；韩国人喜欢木槿，质朴无华，小家碧玉，却不屈不挠，顽强生存。 中国人喜欢看《三国演义》，讲国家大事，规模宏大，像百科全书，将文治截武功溶于一炉；日本人喜欢《忠臣藏》，讲武士博杀，刀光剑影，残忍冷酷；韩国人喜欢《春香传》，讲才子佳人，对诗传情，和美优雅。

Will beauty last? Beautiful in one’s youth doesn’t always translate into older age
Your skin begins to wrinkle; your teeth start to fall; Your once bright eyes are more and more dull; your stomach begin to sag; What do you still have left? Do you have grace, class? Can you still hold your … Continue reading

Javascript call and apply
Most of the time I hate Javascript. It’s full of quirky syntax and it’s sometimes too clever for its own good. I have to imagine that the authors of the Javascript language are a bunch of self-indulgent, self-destructive, drug-addictive morons. … Continue reading
