Harry Potter Morning Light
Chapter 665 Edelweiss
After driving out of Beaune, it didn't take long for the train to enter Switzerland.
The national flower of Switzerland is alpine edelweiss, which is a very famous flower in Europe because it only grows on very high mountains.
In history, Hannibal and Napoleon both crossed the Alps and invaded other countries. In addition, there is a music movie in the history of movies called The Sound of Music. A lively and active nun is not suitable for the life of the monastery. The First Sister made her a home nurse at Colonel von Trapp's.
Maria arrived at von Trapp's home to find him a widower with seven children whose long life in the Navy and grief over his dead wife had made him treat his children as strictly as a soldier. Soon Maria understood the reason why the nurses left in the past. It turned out that the children did not get the care of their fathers, and they always played tricks on the nurses to attract their father's attention. The colonel asked Maria to be as strict as him, but Maria did not obey, but won the children's friendship with her natural gentleness and kindness. When the colonel was away, she used curtains to make game clothes for each child, led them to the market, had a picnic in the beautiful Alps, and taught them to sing. The children's original confinement and melancholy were gradually replaced by music and laughter.
Soon the colonel returned home, bringing back Uncle Max, whom the children liked, and the baroness, the girlfriend whom the children did not like very much.
The colonel was very dissatisfied with Maria's approach, but he was very moved when he heard the children singing for the baroness, because Maria brought back the music that had ceased to exist at home since his wife's death. Maria also prepared a puppet show with the children. The colonel was attracted by Maria's enthusiasm that could infect others, and sang "Edelweiss" for them.
Max persuaded the colonel to let his children go to the music festival, but the colonel refused.
A few days later, the colonel and the baroness held a grand ball together, and the children also sang at the ball. During the ball, Maria demonstrated the Austrian folk dance "Lianndra" to the children.
Unexpectedly, the colonel came over to dance with Maria, and at the end of the dance they looked at each other, and Maria also fell in love with the colonel. All these were seen by the baroness, and she persuaded Maria to return to the monastery that night. Maria was afraid that her feelings for the colonel would get deeper and deeper, so she left quietly.
After Maria left, the baroness tried her best to please the children but to no avail, and even secretly wanted to send the children to a boarding college. When the children learned that the colonel was going to marry the baroness, they were even more upset. They went to the monastery to look for Maria but failed to see her. Maria confessed her love for the colonel and being at a loss for life to Dean Abyss. Dean Abyss told her to have backbone and courage, even if she had to climb every mountain in the world to find her true love. So Maria went back to the von Trapp home. After Maria came back, the baroness found that she could not restore her relationship with the colonel, so she voluntarily withdrew from the engagement. The colonel and Maria confessed their hearts to each other, and soon they got married.
But the good times didn't last long. When Maria and the colonel were on their honeymoon, World War II broke out, and soon Germany annexed Austria. At this time, Max secretly took the children to participate in the selection of the music festival and passed. After the patriotic colonel hurried back, he not only ignored the regulations and tore the flag of the Communist Party of China from his house, but also resisted the requirements of the Communist Party of Germany for his entry.
The colonel wanted to flee with his family, but was discovered by the secret agent butler on the way, so he was almost detained, but he temporarily changed his mind and went to the music festival with the children to find a chance to escape. Finally, with the help of Max and the nuns, the colonel and his family climbed up the Alps to escape.
Only those who dare to challenge the limits of human beings can pick edelweiss, small and white, pure and beautiful, it only loves warriors.
This flower was often seen on the collars of German soldiers on the battlefields of World War II, and it will accompany the person who picked it to sleep.
Not everyone in Germany is a bomb, there are Beethoven and Goethe; not everyone in Germany is a war criminal, there are people like Schindler.
The Colonel in The Sound of Music avoids war not because he is afraid, but because he thinks it is unjust. However, he is not overwhelmed by emotion and does stupid things like hitting a pebble against a rock.
Everyone has a good side and a bad side. There were already Viennese musicians in the second-class car, and the girls who got on the train at Kotterdel sang happily to the sound of their music. Become as cheerful as the third class on the Titanic, as if they have no sense of crisis at all, but it is this kind of carefreeness that Pomona likes.
When he was a child, Master Draco Malfoy was also carefree. He didn't have to worry about money like Ron Weasley, and he didn't have both parents like Harry Potter, and he even had a godfather.
But as time went by, he grew up gradually and became sad. Pomona hoped that he would never grow up, just like Peter Pan who lived in Neverland.
However, this was Pomona's wish after all. Narcissa couldn't stop her own aging, and she always died before Draco. Besides, she couldn't do Sissy to bury her son. She would rather die instead of her son.
Plato thinks he knows love very well, stepmother is always very difficult, especially the man has seven children, which means he once loved her very much. The stepmother not only has to endure another woman in her husband's heart, but also has to deal with seven children who cannot sincerely accept her as their own mother.
In the face of this realistic problem, even if the baroness loves the colonel, she can only give in. Perhaps only a naive little fool like Maria is suitable for such a family.
Plato is very opposed to reducing this kind of love to the pursuit of physical pleasure.
In the kind of love that pursues physical pleasure, one party, especially the active party, will try to let the passive party be at his mercy. It is to let the other party try to be in a state of being very weak intellectually and physically, and let him control it, because only in this way can he enjoy the pleasure of the flesh to the greatest extent.
If the other party is more independent, or more powerful, or more self-disciplined, it may not be so easy for you to obtain physical pleasure from him.
Severus has a strong desire to control. During the period of seclusion, he was in a state of doing whatever he wanted, but she was particularly indulgent to him. She was afraid that it was a dream. After waking up, he was still dead, and his body was in the grave Gradually decayed, and finally turned into bones.
On this point Plato is right.
Women are easier to control than men, and it is much easier to find a reliable person to rely on. Even Scarlett sometimes relies on Rhett, and a weak woman like Melanie has to rely on Scarlett.
Scarlett went back to Tyra so desperately because she wanted to return to that carefree life, but what was waiting for her was that everyone had to rely on her.
Being an independent woman is too tiring. Queen Victoria is a widow for Prince Albert, and she can still regard him as her spiritual sustenance in her heart. Under the pressure of so many state affairs, lust is not a problem.
Another widow, Cixi, is more difficult to understand. She probably doesn't love Emperor Xianfeng that much. If she really loves him, she won't be jealous of other concubines. She was cruel to Concubine Zhen, perhaps because Concubine Zhen got something she couldn't get—the love of Emperor Guangxu.
When a woman becomes jealous, she will become a terrible snake and scorpion from a small fool. Lu Zhi's love for Mrs. Qi, Wu Zetian's love for the queen, Ci Xi's love for the concubine Zhen, and the love of the dominatrix in Sleeping Beauty's story to the princess, and Hera's love for Zeus. What people do, this crazy jealousy is irrational, but Plato tried to understand love with reason.
Pomona didn't like Plato, she didn't read much of what he wrote, but Severus read it, after all, he is now almost a representative figure of Platonic love and chivalrous love
Socrates told a myth in the symposium. On the day the god of beauty Aphrodite was born, many gods came to celebrate and got drunk. One of the rich gods was drunk. She coveted the beauty of the rich god. She mates with him without his knowledge and conceives a child, Eros.
Eros was born with the qualities of both father and mother. His father is omnipotent, representing completeness and self-sufficiency, while his mother is a poor god, representing nothing, always pursuing and not getting it.
So Eros alternated roles, like his father, he got what he wanted, and on the other hand, like his mother, he threw away these things and had nothing.
In short, after he lacks, he pursues, then possesses, then loses, pursues again, possesses again, and loses again, which is such a cyclical pattern.
Philosophers in ancient Greece believed that even the god of love coveted money. Money seemed to be omnipotent, but money could not stop Rome from conquering Greece.
Similarly, money can't stop Death. One can accept another's surrender, but Death doesn't. When Death's cloak swept over the Greek city-states, a quarter of the Athenians died in the plague. In the eyes of the reader, he recorded all this. This person was Thucydides, and the chronicle of human plagues was opened.
According to Thucydides' "Peloponnesian War", the plague first appeared in the border area between Egypt and Ethiopia, and spread from here to Egypt and Libya, and then spread to the coastal countries in the eastern Mediterranean, until the Greek peninsula.
Athens is located in the northern part of the Mediterranean Sea, has a long Aegean coastline, and has many excellent harbors, the most famous of which is the port of Piraeus near Athens. Due to its geographical location, Athens has become an important transportation hub linking Asia, Africa and Europe.
After the Salamis naval battle, the Greek coalition forces defeated the Persian Empire and completely drove the Persians out of Greek territory. Since then, the Persian Empire was no longer capable of large-scale expeditions to the Greek peninsula. However, victory in the Hippo-Persian wars split the Greek Union. The Delian League, headed by the Athenians, has a strong sea force, and they dominate the Aegean Sea with warships; the Peloponnesian League, headed by the Spartans, is known for its powerful army, and they dominate the Greek Peninsula with shields and spears .
In order to resist the invasion of the Spartans on land, Athens adopted the strategy of retreating on land and attacking at sea, and moved all the people scattered in the Attica Peninsula to the city of Athens. As long as there is space, they will live, because they moved into the city, there is not enough space to allocate, some people openly slept in the temple, and some even built dwellings in the cursed place.
A place has its own carrying capacity. Lack of water resources and groundwater pollution will make it impossible for people living in it to survive. Rich people like Socrates and Plato cannot understand the lives of the lower classes. After all, in ancient Greece, Reading is a privilege that only the rich can enjoy.
"The symposium is very philosophical. The reason why coercion is successful is because the strong deprive the weak of their right to choose. Only obedience can avoid greater pain. Temptation is a more civilized approach, but, If the god of love who was lured by the temptation is not fooled, then the drunk and beautiful god of wealth can only continue to lie on the ground and dream. This is what happens in modern democracy. It is useful, but when it is related to the safety of life, people's attention is freed from the temptation, just like the donkey who is attracted by carrots and keeps turning the millstone. When he finds that the wolf is coming, he doesn't care about the carrot. It howled and broke free from the reins that bound him, and left the mill, and the magic of money was gone."
"Since you don't like ancient Greek philosophers, why did you come to Italy?" Pomona asked inexplicably.
"I just wanted to come to Venice," he said, confused. "Didn't you want to have a carnival?"
"I didn't say I wanted a carnival, I just wanted a mask!" Pomona glared at him.
He shrugged indifferently, and continued to eat lunch, as if he was here anyway, and it didn't matter to participate in the carnival.
"We are in such a hurry to leave, is it really just for the carnival?" She asked distrustfully.
"I asked you when I was in Paris. If you want to go to Rome, you can change trains. What else can you do but go to Venice?" He cut a piece of sausage and put it in his mouth, which looked exactly like Ron. Global warming Venice is sinking, I want to see it before it sinks."
"You want to go to Venice just because it's sinking?" she repeated in disbelief.
"You also watched the movie the day after tomorrow. No one knows what will happen the day after tomorrow. The plan can't keep up with the changes. Of course, you have to do it early."
Pomona looked at him speechlessly.
"What's the matter?" He seemed to suspect that something was on his face, and touched that ugly face.
A civilized and moral person does not use violence to solve problems.
But sometimes, Hufflepuff's old badger still wants to use violence to beat Slytherin's old bat.
As if she had a grudge against the spaghetti, she smashed it up with a fork, and as for the little flag, she faded it away with her wand.
