《戏剧报》1959年12期上发表了一篇社论,题目是《戏曲教育的根本任务》。这篇文章的本意是要求提高戏曲教育的质量,用意是好的,但其中的论点和所提出的一些措施,看来却有显著的错误,依我看这是一篇具有思想错误的文章。因为是用社论形式发表的,它的影响也就更大。为了弄清是非,我想提出我对这篇文章的几点意见,供大家研究时参考。 The Drama Newspaper published an editorial in December 1959 titled “The Fundamental Task of Opera Education.” The original intention of this article is to ask for improvement of the quality of drama education. The intention is good, but the arguments and some of the measures proposed seem obvious errors. In my opinion, this is an ideologically wrong article. Because it is published in the form of an editorial, its impact is even greater. In order to find out what is right and wrong, I would like to present my comments on this article for your reference.
