(新春走基层)江苏无锡推出公共文化艺术大餐 市民“文艺”过新年
中新网无锡2月3日电 (记者 孙权)除了鳞次栉比的高楼大厦,对于一座城市而言,更不能缺少的,是那散落在城市各个角落的文化载体、阅读空间。
作为一座经济发达、人均收入较高的城市,地处长三角腹地的江苏无锡气质也相当文艺。这里既有东林书院、钱锺书故居、无锡博物院、东坡书院等文化场馆,又有南长街、惠山古镇、梅里古镇、荡口古镇等极具江南韵味的历史文化名镇、历史街区,还有不胜枚举的各种书店、阅读点。
市民、游客在“锺书茶饮”区小憩。 东林文旅供图听戏、看剧、读书、观展、游园……今年春节期间,无锡各大文化场馆推出丰富多彩的公共文化艺术大餐,吸引了众多市民、游客置身这座江南名城中,度过一个“文艺范”十足的新年。
“钱锺书故居对于无锡人来说并不陌生,很多人读完《围城》,就会来这里看看,但今年这里有新变化。”春节期间,无锡市民徐女士带着女儿来钱锺书故居“打卡”后,欣喜“不枉此行”。
徐女士口中的新变化,是钱锺书故居在新春佳节之际,对外开放了“锺书客厅”。
春节期间,来钱锺书故居“听书”也是不错的选择。 东林文旅供图钱锺书故居前两进系钱锺书祖父钱福烔建成于1923年,后两进由钱锺书叔父钱基厚(孙卿)续建于1924年。此前,故居前两进常年对外开放,后两进由于种种原因未得到充分利用。
今年1月4日,历经3个月“百宅百院”活化利用打造的钱锺书故居后两进,即“锺书客厅”正式对外开放。“锺书客厅”通过展陈提升、空间优化、科技赋能等多种方式,在新春期间推出“来锺书客厅过大年”主题活动,邀市民、游客跟随钱锺书先生的爱猫“花花儿”的脚印,沉浸式体验“锺书先生的故事”。
“今年过年来‘打卡’的人较多。我们做了一个统计,春节假期期间,故居的人流量大概是去年同期的两倍多。”无锡市东林书院和名人故居管理中心主任荣骏炎告诉中新网记者,“锺书客厅”开放后,不少市民、游客慕名前来。
游客体验全息投影互动。 东林文旅供图负责“锺书客厅”日常事务的东林文旅市场总监惠煜介绍,来客厅的群体中,很多是“80后”“90后”,亲子组合比较多。“大多是父母带着孩子来体验,钱锺书著作展示区、全息投影区、锺书文创区最受欢迎。”
“这里的全息投影互动,可以让人感受小院的春夏秋冬,深度体验钱锺书创作《围城》的心路历程,有身临其境的感觉;在阅读区,我们通过小程序可以留下朗读片段,还能聆听他人的有趣见解;在‘锺书茶饮’区里,喝一杯茶看看书,阳光透过窗格子照在书本上,说不出的惬意。”徐女士说,其与女儿在“锺书客厅”待了一下午,收获颇多。
据介绍,锺书文创区颇受市民欢迎。 孙权 摄以“风声雨声读书声声声入耳,家事国事天下事事事关心”闻名的东林书院是江南地区人文荟萃之所。今年春节期间,书院推出“卯兔贺新岁”游园打卡活动,通过传统国潮趣味游戏,传承民俗文化,感受传统魅力,丰富民众假期文娱生活。

图为部分文创产品展示。 孙权 摄“我们没有外出旅行,还是选择在无锡本地转转,没想到‘家门口’的活动也这么精彩。”无锡市民王先生说,今年自己带着一家人到东林书院游玩,大家一起拓印“福”字挂历、一起制作金箔福画、一起印制版画红包,假期生活既丰富又文艺。
除了名人故居、文保单位,无锡当地的古镇、街区、文化场馆在今年春节期间也是“各显神通”,推出一系列新春活动吸引民众“打卡”。
这个春节,市民携家带小前往东林书院“打卡”。 东林文旅供图在“江南第一古镇”梅里古镇,热闹的舞龙舞狮串起了古镇里的别样年味;在“中国历史文化名镇”荡口古镇,市民、游客走过小桥巷道、船头榭下,听评弹、看演出;在修缮一新的锡剧艺术中心,市民、游客边欣赏轻松搞笑的脱口秀演出,边品尝锡剧主题小茶点……
“高度的参与性和互动性,让这些文化场所更加亲民,也吸引了更多青年人。”谈及新春期间参观群体的变化,荣骏炎这样说。(完)
中新网评:美国众议长选举“连续剧”暴露美式民主痼疾****** 中新网北京1月9日电(蒋鲤)在15轮投票表决后,美国众议院议长选举这场“连续剧”终于落下帷幕,众议院共和党领袖凯文•麦卡锡最终成功当选第55任美国众议院议长。这是美国国会过去164年来耗时最久的一次议长选举记录,将美国“对抗式民主”的弊端暴露无遗。 资料图:美国众议院共和党领袖麦卡锡。中新社记者 沙晗汀 摄由于两党对立加剧、党派内斗、利益分配不均等因素,众议长选举陷入一场拉锯战。在此次众议长竞选中,美国民主党议员继续抱团,多轮投票中,一票不投麦卡锡,共和党右翼“强硬派”领头的约20人小团体也拒绝投票麦卡锡。 麦卡锡的当选之路一波三折,除了本人的“政治投机派”角色在国会不受欢迎外,与共和党内部政治分歧关系密切。 一方面,共和党党内反对者认为,麦卡锡对民主党态度过于软弱,无力对抗民主党控制的参议院和拜登政府,另一方面,因为共和党的多数优势微弱,党内一些影响力较小的派系的政治力量则被放大,有利于他们巩固自己的选票。 此外,党内反对者也认为,自己的选票没有换取更多利益,希望以此作为筹码换取麦卡锡更大的让步,比如让他们获得众议院重要委员会中的职务。 作为仅次于美国总统、副总统的政坛三号人物,众议院议长通常由众议院多数党领袖担任,选举几乎没有悬念。然而,麦卡锡此次为当选,不得不做出多个关键让步,其中可能包括恢复一项罢黜议长动议机制,使得众议长的权力被削弱,难以掌控众议院。 美国有线电视新闻网CNN称,麦卡锡在这场不合时宜的政治勒索中作出让步,这种绥靖政策只会让极端主义势力更加强大。 这场引发全世界围观的尴尬选举暴露出美国政治存在严重的对立和分化。在权力博弈思维的裹挟下,党派利益凌驾于国家和人民利益之上,美国两党相互拆台,陷入“为反对而反对”的无脑对垒。而即便是一党内,也会因为利益分配问题产生不同的小派系,相互对抗,选票变成了谋利益的工具。 从国会山骚乱到打破记历史记录的15轮众议长选举,“对抗式民主”让美国政治陷入瓶颈,长期对抗势必会让政客们丧失客观公正的判断能力,其政治阶层是否有能力治理国家也会引发质疑。 两党之争和党派内斗进一步放大了美国政治体制弊病,美国所谓的“民主”形象,让全世界大跌眼镜。鼓吹以选民利益为先的美式选举,变成了政客们利益置换的游戏,进一步彰显出美国“民主政治”日渐失能,不断极化的党争已使美国政治制度陷入死循环。 House speaker election reveals deep-rooted problems in U.S. democracy (ECNS) -- The Republican leader Kevin McCarthy was elected as the 55th speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives after 15 ballots. As the most grueling House speaker election in the past 164 years, the election has highlighted the defects of the country’s "confrontational democracy". The election once reached a stalemate due to intense partisan strife, inner-party struggle among the Republicans, uneven distribution of interests, and more. Democratic Party members forged a close alliance, refusing to vote for McCarthy, while about 20 Republicans also declined to cast ballots for the GOP leader. Except for his unpopular role as a "political speculator" in Congress, McCarthy’s hard-won election can be attributed to turmoil within the Republican Party. On the one hand, opponents in the Republican Party believe that the GOP leader's attitude toward the Democrats is too weak to confront the Senate controlled by Democrats and the Biden administration. On the other hand, the political power of some less influential factions in the Republican Party has been amplified due to the Party’s weak majority advantage in the House of Representatives, which is conducive to consolidating their ticket warehouses. Meanwhile, these opponents believe that their votes failed to win them more benefits, hoping to use this as a bargaining chip for McCarthy's further concessions, such as getting them positions in important House Committees. As the third political figure after the President and Vice President of the U.S., the speaker, by tradition, is the head of the majority party in the House of Representatives. But McCarthy has made many concessions in order to bring the ultra conservatives along, involving what’s known as the “motion to vacate,” a mechanism by which members can force a vote to depose the speaker. The reported concessions will empower individual members at the expense of McCarthy’s sway as speaker. CNN thought the concessions he made during this unseemly political shakedown would only make the extremist faction more powerful. This embarrassing election, which has drawn global attention, exposed the serious opposition and polarization in American politics. Both Democrats and Republicans put their interests before that of the country and its people, attacking and opposing each other irrationally. Besides, different factions arise within a single party and confront each other because of the distribution of interests. Votes have become a tool to win more benefits. From Capitol riots to the House Speaker election with record-breaking ballots, "confrontational democracy" has become a bottleneck of American politics. Long-term confrontation will surely impede politicians to think objectively and fairly while their capacity of governing the country will also raise doubts among the public. Both parties’ struggle and infighting among the Republicans have further amplified the defects of the American political system, with its "democratic" image shocking the world. The U.S.-style election, which advocates putting voters' interests first, has become a game of interest exchange among politicians. In addition, it further demonstrates the malfunction of American "democratic politics" and the constantly polarized party struggle that has trapped the American political system into an infinite cycle.
