Salon originated in Italy in16th century, but it became popular in France in17th century. But there are similar games in China. Scholars call it a circle, and folks call it a help. Later, with the title of club, foreign things serve China. In my memory, the famous literati salon is a "second-rate club" and the capitalist salon is a "weekly dinner".
When I was in college more than 20 years ago, I once read in the magazine Historical Materials of New Literature: In the 1930s, some like-minded young artists in Shanghai met regularly to exchange works; Everyone is ruthless and critical, learning from each other's strengths. If you don't buy it, come back next time with your new work. In this way, many influential writers have been tempered in the salon. To this day, I still envy such a salon.
Strange to say. Almost all salons that can produce works and attract a phoenix have an excellent host. Take the salon of foreigners as an example, these excellent hosts are basically played by girls. Ninon's salon attracted comedian Moliere and his team. Lady Chatterley's salon captured Voltaire, another literary master. The exquisite refreshments and drinks in Stan Salon not only satisfy Picasso, Hemingway and Joyce, but also feed their thirsty souls. There are also such cases, some of them are not hostess, but they still become the core of the salon, and Lin, who is both talented and beautiful in China, is one of the best.
The appearance of Sharon has been changing for more than 500 years since its appearance. Some people make friends through painting and art, some become hotbeds of revolution, some become stepping stones, some become places near big houses, some become places to do business ... Of course, they also give birth to many romantic feelings handed down from generation to generation. In today's words, Sharon is a platform and a carrier; See if you know enough. If you know enough, you will sell well. Quoting the words of a great man, with its help, many shocking and magnificent live plays can be performed.
Of course, there are also masters who angrily bid farewell to the salon, such as Van Gogh. The master left the Paris salon he had been infatuated with and went back to Bill alone. In a letter to his brother Theo, he expressed his views on Sharon: "There is friendship, strength and sincere love. I also feel a terrible resistance, which consumes spiritual energy. "
(2) Salon, which originally refers to the luxurious living room in the residence of the French elite, has been turned into a famous social place by my family (mostly ladies and gentlemen) in Paris since the17th century. There are playwrights, novelists, poets, musicians, painters, critics, audiologists and politicians who come in and out. They are like-minded, and the party is not divided. Later, people called this kind of gathering "Salon", which became popular in European and American cultural circles and reached its peak in the19th century.
Authentic "Salon" has the following characteristics: 1, held regularly; 2. The time is evening (because lighting can create a hazy and romantic aesthetic feeling, which can arouse the interest, conversation and inspiration of participants); 3, the number is small, it is a small circle; 4, voluntary combination, in twos and threes, free to talk and express their opinions.
