"Facing the Germans in the south, we can give them some autonomy, but their right to freedom and autonomy is not unlimited.
You must know that this is Brazil, not the German Empire! "
Tang Ning would never compromise on education reform, especially on the issue of changing church jobs.
Private education can be temporarily put on hold and dealt with later, but how can this be done if religion controls the right to educate? Tangning couldn't tolerate it now.
“In the two southern states, there are not only Germans, but also Italians and quite a few Portuguese.
Miguel, you can ask Italian officials to do this. Of course, the Portuguese in the south must also cooperate. You must deprive them of their religious rights to education. "
The king's attitude was very firm. As the Minister of Education, Miguel actually resented the Germans having their own right to education.
Now the king's attitude is very clear, Miguel will never be merciful.
"Your Majesty, I understand what to do."
Tangning put away the lighter and said in a serious tone: "As long as you understand, you can go back first. I hope to achieve results as soon as possible. This matter must not be delayed."
"Your Majesty, I will fulfill my mission!"
Miguel saluted and left quickly.
"Silver, you did a very good job in the Brazilian cultural work I taught you."
Tang Ning has been promoting the shaping of Brazilian cultural identity since his recovery, and he specifically asked Silva, a poet, to be responsible for this aspect.
Although Silva's current cultural work is very one-sided and focuses mainly on literature, Tangning is still quite satisfied.
Literature, the literature of a nation or a country, is the core of a nation’s culture.
Silva did the right thing, at least he got the point.
“I know the level of Brazilian and Portuguese literature, and I have seen the results of your current work.
The essay competition was very well done, and I have read the award-winning literary works. Although there are only some fine works and most of the cultural works are very childish, they contain rich emotions and are worthy of encouragement.
You are right to inspire these intellectuals who promote our Brazilian culture. "
The Brazilian literature market is very narrow. In this case, the country can only support it personally.
If Brazilian literature is allowed to develop naturally, it will be very unreliable. As for promoting it after the country becomes rich, the effect then will not be as strong as if it was supported from the beginning.
During the great Brazilian reform, Brazil will undergo a transformation from weak to strong. The literary works that appeared during this period are naturally better than those written in later periods.
"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty. You inspired me."
Silva was very happy with the king's praise, but he also understood that this was not his alone.
Silva said humbly: "Dear His Majesty the King, you personally praised the history of Portugal and Brazil and set a very good example.
And it was Your Majesty who asked me to start the essay collection activity. If it weren’t for your proposal, I wouldn’t have been able to discover so many Brazilian cultural talents. "
Literary essay solicitation activities actually appeared very early. Some newspapers have already done them, and many are still doing them now.
Newspapers in later generations no longer have the power to shape literary works, but at this time newspapers were an important medium for writers to publish their works.
As early as the 17th century, there were newspapers that specialized in literary content, and many literary figures also came from the field of newspaper literature.
However, there are very few essay solicitation activities conducted by the state in person. Brazil thinks of using the power of the state to promote it, which will of course be more effective than private efforts.
"The Ronin Begins with Douluo"
After all, Brazil is a country no matter how you say it. Even if the country only uses part of its power, you cannot compare with it as a private person.
“In terms of promoting literature, you have generally done a good job.
But I hope you add more elements of the Tupi Indians. If we Portuguese can gain a foothold in Brazil, it goes without saying that the help of the Tupi Indians is indispensable.
The Portuguese in Brazil developed precisely because of their initial marriage and alliance with the Tupi Indians to deal with Spanish forces and the Guaraní tribe.
Thinking needs to be expanded, and while promoting Portuguese culture, we should also appropriately absorb the culture of some other nations.
Indian culture is very weak, and it can completely absorb some good factors and transform it into a sub-part of Portuguese-Brazilian culture. In doing so, it can further enhance the Indian identity. "
The Indians, never a single entity, were divided into numerous tribes.
The Portuguese's great success in Brazil was indispensable without the help of some Tupi Indian allies.
Some culturally backward Tupi Indian tribes along the coast of Brazil accepted Portuguese religion and culture, married with the Portuguese, and formed a community of interests. It was precisely because of this that Portugal later expanded so smoothly.
Portugal develops Brazil, not only with the national level development team, but also with the Brazilian flag team.
The Brazilian flag force is composed of Portuguese, Portuguese-Indian mixed blood, and pro-Portuguese Indians.
The famous São Paulo Flag Team helped Portugal expand in the south, destroying the local Guaraní Indians and Spanish missionary organizations, and expanding Brazilian land directly to the border with Paraguay.
Although the goal of the Brazilian flag team is to hunt for treasure and wealth, and there is a lot of gray content, their will, resilience and spirit have made a significant contribution to the development of Brazil.
"Sibal, I hope you can select a group of literary works that describe the integration and unity of the Portuguese and Indians to open up Brazil together.
In the work, attention should be paid to dividing the Indians into several parts.
Those Tupi Indians who stand with us must be praised; those Guarani people who resist us must be evil and ignorant to me.
Literary works may appropriately describe some of our faults, but the overall aspect must shape our great pioneering spirit and efforts to spread civilization.
The overall theme is that long live Portugueseization, being pro-Portuguese is a righteous act, those who resist are the embodiment of evil and ignorance, and those who resist civilization are fundamentally evil.
In this regard, historical facts can be processed and re-created, and the epic spirit of the marriage between Portugal and India to fight against foreign enemies and the joint development of flag team culture can be vigorously praised. "
Downing is to reshape Brazilian history, beautify the colonial history of glorious Brazil, and shatter the theory of persecution of Indians.
In Brazilian history, the so-called darkness does not exist at all. The history is that the Portuguese brought culture and civilization to many Indians in Brazil.
It was the Portuguese who drove away the ignorance of the Tupi Indians. It was the Portuguese who brought them from tribes into the civilized era. It was the Portuguese who merged with the Indians to create Brazil.
Tangning said sternly to Silva.
“To affirm the pro-Portuguese Tupi Indians and discredit those Indians who resisted us, we must shatter the stereotype that Indians are one and shape the justice of our Portuguese entry into Brazil.
I have heard some opinions that it was us Portuguese who brought disaster to the Indians in Brazil. This is simply nonsense.
Those Tupi Indians who have integrated with us are not Indians. Why did they suffer disasters?
Aren’t Brazilian Indians in an ignorant tribe? Is there no hatred between them, are the Tupi and the Guaraní one and the same? And do we Portuguese exclude all Indians?
How can these bastards ignore our union with many Indians.
We are not Spaniards. When did our Portuguese destroy American civilization? Do the Indians in Brazil have civilization? Is there an Indian country?
Aren’t the Tupi Indians in Brazil the civilized culture we brought to them?
Spain and Portugal must be separated. Spain is the bringer of dark disasters, while Portugal is the spreader of light civilization. How can they be compared?
In the cultural field, Silva, you must do this well. I will criticize and criticize the so-called dark theory. "
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Silva replied sonorously.
His Majesty the King said about the relationship between Portugal and Brazilian Indians, that the Portuguese brought bright civilization to Brazil, and Silva agreed very much.
In Silva's opinion, the king was absolutely right.
Brazil was originally developed by Portugal to spread civilization and culture, and it has never brought about the destruction of civilization.
Are Brazilian Indians civilized? Not at all.
Are Brazilian Indians one big tribe that loves each other? Obviously not. The relationship between Tupi and Guaraní is not that of a loving family.
The historical reality is that some smart Tupi Indian tribes who longed for civilization took the initiative to unite and integrate with the Portuguese, and then pioneered together to eliminate the barbaric Guarani people and shape the current Brazil.
