思想教育是历史教育承载的一项重要功能。我们的历史教育是向善的,教人原谅,教人宽容,教人善待别人,这并没有什么不对;但是,这不应该成为我们历史教育、思想教育的全部。因为,这个世界并不全是美好,还有丑恶,我们在教学生向善的时候,还要教他们辨别丑恶,教他们与丑恶斗争。不久前,看了冯小宁执导的电影《紫日》,没看完,只看了其中的一段。影片的男主人公是抗战时期的一个普通农民,母亲被日本士兵杀了,他被日本人强迫做劳工,后来逃了出来,遇上了一个苏联红军女战士,并俘虏了一个日本女学生。影片就以三个人在远东亚寒带森林里的跋涉作为叙事背景。 Ideological education is an important function carried by history education. Our history education is good, teaches people to forgive, teaches tolerance, and teaches people to be kind to others. There is nothing wrong with this; however, this should not be the whole of our history education and ideological education. Because the world is not all beautiful and ugly. When teaching students to be good, we must also teach them to identify ugliness and teach them to fight ugly. Not long ago, I saw Feng Xianning’s film “Purple Sun,” but did not read it and only looked at one of them. The male protagonist of the film was an ordinary peasant during the war of resistance against Japan. His mother was killed by Japanese soldiers. He was forced by the Japanese to work as a laborer. Later he escaped and met a soldier of the Soviet Red Army and captured a Japanese female student. The film uses three people as a background for a trek in Far East Asia’s frigid forests.
