The Blending Of Thinkers And Shoe Culture

< p > when young people now see the "three inch Golden Lotus" worn by adults in museums or other places, they can't help but exclaim: "really such a small foot!" they have never seen women with feet around them. It is hard to imagine the way women walk around, and it is even more difficult to understand the pain caused by women's foot binding. < /p >
In the late nineteenth Century and early twentieth Century, the reform movement in China was flourishing. A warm thinker stood at the forefront of the campaign to call for women's foot binding. After his book "no foot binding meeting", "Zunyi Wan persuaded the emancipation of women's feet to wrap up vernacular", "putting feet on the door", "making shoes" and so on, it had great influence on the society at that time, and made contributions to the promotion of new fashions. < /p >
< p > Song Shu (1862 - 1910), Zi Ping Zi, Pingyang people in Wenzhou, is a famous enlightenment thinker in modern China. In the early years, he accepted the social reform trend of thought in Yongjia in Song Dynasty and the Opium War since then, and was engaged in the reform movement. After that, he was influenced by the Benevolence Theory of Buddhism. < /p >
< p > July 1897, reformers Liang Qichao and Wang Kangnian founded the "no foot binding Association" in Shanghai. Song Shu wrote the book "no foot binding after the meeting", praising it as "a thousand times, great mercy". But it is pointed out that the reason for "Yangchun and oligopoly" lies in the fact that the root cause of foot binding is "no one can do anything". Song Shu believes that the reason why Han women are bound to become vulgar is not because of "foolishness", nor because of "tolerance". (foot binding women are wise or benevolent), but by the lyrics depicted in the lyrics, women, women and women are called "three inch feet", describing the influence of such traditional culture as "cheap feet". Then, we should advocate that we should straighten out the root cause and rectify it through reform and education. < /p >
< p > by the beginning of twentieth Century, a lot of sensible gentry women began to change their shoes and put their feet in Ruian, Wenzhou. In 1902, the grandson house (Sun Yirang's house) of Da Sha Road in Ruian City, from the old lady to the grandmother, miss, Miss Sun, the whole house woman took the lead to solve the problem, and issued the "untangled official document". Sun Shu, the wife and uncle of Song Shu, tried to persuade more women to put their feet on their feet. He asked song and Hua for eight days to make the text of "Zunyi Wan persuaded the liberation of women's feet to be wrapped up in vernacular". There are twenty-six articles in this article, from the origin of foot binding to the harm of foot binding, the advantages of putting feet in popular stories, and criticizing the fact that women put their feet in a bad way. When people were making a bridal chamber, Wen began to ask the bride's feet and legs short. He looked up at his feet and saw his feet and legs short. He began to touch his feet and his feet were short. Those whose feet grew longer were mocked by "stepping down and lifting the circle". When the voices were heard, the bride was really uncomfortable. Song Shu was very resentful of it, calling it a barbaric custom. < /p >
< p > to relieve women's worries about walking after putting feet and putting feet, Song Shu also wrote "putting feet in law" and "making shoes". The shoe making method is shown below to see the style of shoes at that time: < /p >
< p > shoe size, size, and round head, double brows, bat face, wooden bottom, paper bottom and cloth bottom are used. The bottom of the wood is always covered with cotton, so as to prevent the bottom from being hard to walk. Poor women can wear cloth shoes and sandals. If the family members have a happy event, or go to the city to play, they can not defend themselves from cloth shoes or sandals. < /p >
