听《菊花台》有感

听着《菊花台》,让我有了些联想~周杰伦的《菊花台》是电影《满城尽带黄金甲》的片尾曲,片名出自唐末农民起义将领黄巢的《不第后赋菊》中最后一句,全诗如下:
《不第后赋菊》 黄巢
待到秋来九月八,我花开后百花杀。
冲天香阵透长安,满城尽带黄金甲。
这首诗是黄巢率领起义大军为困长安城时作下的,而今依然能从中感受到黄巢豪迈的气魄和冲天霸气,无愧于“冲天大将军”名号。虽然如此气魄,但黄巢却不是历史中的英雄。史书上说他残暴毒虐,嗜好滥杀无辜,曾经“洗城”长安,写到这里脑海就浮现长安城里血流成河、人间地狱的骇人景象令我不寒而栗。即便是这样,心里还是不由得赞叹他诗中的男儿霸气,同时也暗暗地感叹人性的多面。与诗不同,《菊花台》如同电影一样是伤感的,听着忧伤的歌,回忆着电影里残烈的情节,联想着冲天大将军的霸气~此时此刻的心情是何其的复杂,何其的混乱。。。但我很享受,享受这份混乱复杂加霸气忧伤!

Marguerite de Valois

Written on 7/09/2008 12:23:00 上午 by Katherine

Born Marguerite de Valois at the Royal Château de Saint-Germain-en-Laye and nicknamed Margot by her brothers,she was the daughter of Henry II and Catherine de' Medici.Three of her brothers became kings of France: Francis II,Charles IX and Henry II.Her sister,Elisabeth of Valois,became the third wife of King Philip II of Spain.
Although Marguerite loved Henry of Guise,her mother would never allow the House of Guise any chance of controlling France.Instead,she offered to marry Marguerite to Philip II’s son Carlos,Prince of Asturias,but that did not work out.Serious negotiations for Marguerite’s marriage to King Sebastian of Portugal were also considered but abandoned.
Marguerite was forced to marry Henry of Bourbon,the son of Jeanne d' Albret,the Protestant Queen of Navarre,in a marriage that was designed to reunite family ties and create harmony between Catholics and Huguenots.Although Henry’s mother,Jeanne d' Albret,Queen of Navarre,opposed the marriage,many of her nobles supported it,and the marriage was arranged.Jeanne d' Albret died before the marriage was concluded.
On August 18,1572,the 19 year old Marguerite married Henry de Bourbon,who had become King of Navarre on the death of his mother.The groom,a Huguenot,remained outside the church for much of the wedding.It was reported that during the ceremony,the bride and groom stared straight ahead,never looking at each other.
Just six days after the wedding,on Saint Bartholomew’s Day,a massacre of Huguenots was conducted by Parisian mobs.
After more than three years of confinement at court,Henty(who had saved his life by pretending to convert to Catholicism)escaped Paris in 1576,leaving his wife behind.Finally granted permission to return to her husband in Navarre,for the next three and a half years Queen Marguerite and her husband lived a scandalous life in Pau.Both openly kept other lovers,and they quarrelled frequently.
After an illness in 1582,Queen Marguerite returned to her brother’s court in France.But Henry III was soon scandalized by her reputation and forced her to leave the court.After long negotiation,she was allowed to return to her husband’s court in Navarre,but she received an icy reception.Determined to overcome her difficulties,Queen Marguerite masterminded a coup d'état and seized power over Agen,one of her appanages.After several months of fortifying the city,the citizens of Agen revolted and Queen Marguerite fled to the castle of Carlat.In 1586,she was imprisoned by her brother Henry III in the castle of Usson,in Auvergne,where she spent eighteen years.
In 1589,her husband succeeded to the French throne as Henry IV.Negotiation to dissolve the marriage were entered in 1592 and concluded in 1599 with an agreement that allowed her to maintain the title of queen.In the end,her beauty fading,Queen Marguerite lived in near poverty hounded by creditors to the point of selling all of her jewels. Reconciled to her former husband and his second wife, Marie de' Medici, Queen Marguerite returned to Paris and established herself as a mentor of the arts and benefactress of the poor. She often helped plan events at court and nurtured Henry IV and Marie's children. Marguerite died in Paris on May 27, 1615, and is buried in the Chapel of the Valois.

Gustav I of Sweden

Written on 7/07/2008 11:28:00 下午 by Katherine

Gustav I,born Gustav Eriksson and later known as Gustav Vasa(12 May 1496-29 September 1560),was King of Sweden from 1523 until his death.He was the first monarch of the House of Vasa,an influential noble family which came to be the royal house of Sweden for much of the 16th and 17th centuries.Gustav I was elected regent in 1521 after leading a rebellion against Christian II of Denmark,the leader of the Kalmar Union who controlled most of Sweden at the time.
Gustav was an enigmatic person who has been referred to as both a liberator of the country and as a tyrannical ruler,which has made hin the subject of many books.When he came to power in 1523,he was largely unknown,and he became the ruler of a still divided country without a central government.Though not as famous as most of his continental contemporaries,he became the first truly autocratic native Swedish sovereign and was a skilled propagandist and bureaucrat who laid the foundations for a more efficient centralized government.During his reign Protestantism was introduced in the country.
In traditional Swedish history he has been labelled the founder of modern Sweden,and the “father of the nation”.Gustav liked to compare himself to Moses,whom he believed to have also liberated his people and established a state.As a person,Gustav was known for ruthless methods and a bad temperament,but he also loved music,and had a certain sly wit.

Zong, or zongzi is a traditional Chinese food,made of glutinous rice stuffed with different fillings and wrapped in bamboo leaves. They are cooked by steaming or boiling. Zongzi is traditionally eaten during the Dragon Boat Festival which falls on the fifth dayof the fifth month of the Chinese calendar. Nyonya Zong....Sad to say,i can easily found it at Beijing..(But also not i buy lar,my dad will buy it for me...)Part of the charm of the nyonya zong is the lovely mix of blue and white rice,Coloured with butterfly pea flowers.It was not like 'Bak Zhang' which is salty..Nyonya zong is a bit spicy..a bit sweet... So,now....Who can tell me where can i find it at Malmö???

复活节之旅---柏林

Written on 5/19/2008 09:18:00 下午 by Katherine

我们利用复活节假期,去了柏林和布拉格,现在才发上来是因为整理工作量巨大再加上我时不时的给自己放假休息,所以。。。呵呵。。 我们是晚上从哥本哈根机场坐飞机到柏林的,飞行时间不到一小时,到达柏林机场时已经是晚上10点多了,对柏林的第一印象是复杂的自动售票机和打死不说英语的德国人。而且车站的地图上也没有标记显示所在站的位置,要不是有惊人识图能力的我,可能永远也到不了旅店了,在这里还要特别特别感谢一位俄罗斯友人,他在柏林大雪的深夜带着我们找到了我们预定的旅店!第二天早上我们就开始了柏林之行。。。

我们住的旅店干净实惠,距城铁很近。柏林的城铁车厢是粉红色的,很可爱哟~路上看到许多工厂和楼房很旧,而且到处都是涂鸦。顺便介绍一下,这次旅行的主人公—我和我老公~~~

柏林中央车站是德国首都柏林之中央枢钮铁路车站,也是欧洲最大之转运车站,我们就是从这里出发去布拉格的!车站分三层,上面好像只是城内铁路;中间我没看到车站,只有商场;下层是火车站。

从车站出来就是柏林墙了,1961年建造围墙,目的是隔离东德和西德,从而阻隔东西柏林之间市民的往来。柏林墙是二战以后德国分裂和冷战的重要标志性建筑。1989年11月,屹立了28年“柏林墙倒塌”,两德重归统一。保留了一部份作为纪念没有拆除,墙上面被画的满满的,都是一些反战绘画和反战口号,用各种语言写成的,大家用自己的语言叙说着期盼和平的美好愿望,还有中文的呢~~

亚历山大广场,1805年俄国沙皇亚历山大一世访问柏林,广场由此得名。广场的标志是尼普顿喷泉创作于1886-91年,海神尼普顿端坐在巨大贝壳中,喷泉的四角坐着的四位仙女代表了当时流经普鲁士国家的四条河流:莱茵河、威悉河、奥得河及易北河。柏林电视塔是欧洲第二高建筑。广场旁还有圣母教堂,是柏林第二古老的教区礼拜堂。教堂1270年前后起建,直至十四世纪初才全部完工。此后教堂外观几经更改。教堂内部最珍贵的部分是1485年留下的22米长、2米高的晚哥特式湿壁画“死舞”和1703年完成的高级雪花石膏布道坛。但是我们去的时候,教堂没有开放,只能在外面看看了,真是可惜~~

红色市政厅建于1861-69年,1990年10月,两德统一后,成为德国首都柏林的市政厅是市长办公地。旁边是马克思-恩格斯像,仔细观察去合影的人都是中国人~哈~

著名的菩提树下大街或椴树下大街,有好多著名的建筑(下面会逐一的介绍),中段立有腓特烈大帝的骑马雕像。克里斯蒂安·達尼尔·劳赫的这个作品是19世紀代表性雕塑家的最重要的作品之一。大街上还有马车跑来跑去的,可以坐着游览整个大街。

柏林大教堂是基督教路德宗教堂,建于1895-1905年,第二次世界大战期间,教堂遭到严重破坏。1993年教堂重新开放,重建后教堂原先的很多设计和装饰被简化了。

教堂里面进去参观要5欧一个人,教堂内部装饰华丽,可以容纳500人左右。有一个巨大的管风琴~~
一层还停放着德国皇帝弗里德里希三世(腓特烈三世)(1831-1888)、选帝侯约翰·西塞罗(1455-1499)、普鲁士第一位国王弗里德里希一世及王后索菲·夏洛特·冯·汉诺威(1668-1705)等人的灵柩。教堂的地下一层安放着霍亨索伦家族各个时期成员的灵柩。
教堂的二层的模型展示了柏林大教堂在各个时期的不同样式以及当时的设计方案。楼梯墙壁上的照片记录了教堂在二战时被轰炸和损毁的情景。地上建筑有4层,还可以登顶俯瞰柏林市区。我老公说从顶部看到的景色很像电影《伯恩的身份》的场景!
老国家博物馆建于1830年,底楼展出雕塑、武器、金银首饰等从基克拉泽斯文明到古罗马时代的古希腊艺术和文化史藏品,我在门口跳着来了两张,效果还不错~

柏林洪堡大学是德国首都柏林最古老的大学,于1809年由威廉·冯·洪堡及弟弟亚历山大·冯·洪堡所创立,是第一所新制的大学,对于欧洲乃至于全世界的影响都相当深远。物理学家爱因斯坦、哲学家黑格尔、叔本华、神学家施莱马赫、法学家萨维尼都曾在此任教。许多知名学者、政治家也都在这里学习过,其中有马克斯、恩格斯等,还有我们的周恩来总理!柏林洪堡大学产生过29位诺贝尔奖得主,成就惊人。在这里学习是没戏了,那就照个像吧。。。

勃兰登堡门是位于德国首都柏林的新古典主义风格建筑,由普鲁士国王腓特烈·威廉二世下令于1788年至1791年间建造,以纪念普鲁士在七年战争取得的胜利。勃兰登堡门是柏林的象征,也是德国的国家象征标志,它见证了柏林、德国、欧洲乃至世界的许多重要历史事件。还一点要强调一下,勃兰登堡门也是我们小家的象征标志—柏林爱乐的大门!哈哈~~~

德国国会大厦首先是德意志帝国的帝国议会,后来在魏玛共和国时期是共和国议会的议会会址。从门口排起长龙都是等着进去参观的。1991年在国会大厦北面修建了新的国会和总理府。从这里我们又返回中央车站,向布拉格出发了~~~
