“己酉书厄”:发生在1969年秋冬季的旧书刊资源损毁

"Jiyou Book Eph":Old Books and Magazine Resources Damaged in the Autumn and Winter of 1969

1969年9月开始的从中央到地方党政机关、高等院校、文教科技、艺术院团里,大批干部、教师、专家学者和文化艺术工作者被组织性地下放到"五七干校"的时政举措,使得大批被"下放运动"波及的城市家庭所存书刊,多被户主或其家属作为"废纸"卖给废品收购站,或被直接抛弃为"垃圾",这是"己酉书厄"的成因。"己酉书厄"是反文化、反文明的"文革"时政,大肆鼓噪和执行"读书无用"乃至"知识越多越反动"路线的社会恶果,更是造成上世纪六十年代后期与七十年代前期中国社会大面积"书荒"现象,以及八、九十年代以来我国旧书刊市场资源严重贫乏的社会原因之一。

Starting from September 1969, in central and local party and government organs, institutions of higher learning, culture, education, science and technology, arts groups, large numbers of cadres, teachers, experts and scholars and cultural artists were organizationally lowered into the ＂cadre school＂ . The decentralization movement also affected a large number of books kept by urban households. These books were sold as ＂waste paper＂ or directly discarded as ＂trash＂. This is how the ＂Jiyou book Eph＂ happened. ＂Jiyou book Eph＂ was the social consequences of ＂Cultural Revolution＂ ,which was against culture, and civilization, clamoring ＂reading useless＂ and even ＂the more knowledge, the more reactionary＂. ＂Cultural Revo- lution＂ also lead to ＂book shortage＂ phenomenon in the late sixties and early seventies of last century , as well as the poor resources in old book markets since the 1980s and 1990s.
