Chapitre 359: Chapter 232: Cultural Confidence in Poetry, What a Top-Level Ranter, No, He Must Be a Connection!_4

"Times have changed, and not every part of Europe and America is trendy. Poetry is a manifestation of cultural confidence. Dante could secure a spot in hell for the Pope in "The Divine Comedy," sparking the Renaissance. That's their culture."

"We can proudly recite poems atop the Pavilion of Prince Teng, belt out songs during a spring outing, and wave the five-starred red flag on the summits of Mount Lao, Mount Hua, and Mount Tai. This is our culture, the romanticism in our bones; we're not afraid to express ourselves, not ashamed of our culture."

"What's there to be ashamed of? Just because it's taught from childhood and many people know it? Does that mean it's not niche or trendy enough?"

Luckily, she caught herself, coughed, and suddenly realized the room had fallen silent.
