There is a boutique doll shop in Prince Edward Building, Hong Kong. The treasure of the town shop is a teddy bear , made by a British teacher. The teddy bear hunted a long rifle and the owner called it the Roosevelt Bear.
>>Enter: Teddy Bear Special
[Chinese and foreign toy nets] Consumer culture] In fact, all teddy bears are Roosevelt bears, and Teddy is the nickname of Theodore. The teddy bear is named after the twenty-sixth president of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt. The Chinese usually call him Old Roosevelt, which is different from Roosevelt, the 32nd president of the United States, Franklin Roosevelt.
The story of the teddy bear took place in 1902. President Roosevelt went to Mississippi for business, and the local host arranged a bear hunting trip for him. But the hunt was unlucky, and the hunters had nothing to gain for three days. On the fourth day, the guide and the hound finally found the target - a black bear, but the bear was old and sick, dying under the siege of hunting dogs and hunters. The guide invited Old Roosevelt to let him shoot the black bear that had been surrounded by the group. Roosevelt refused. He said: "This is not what the real hunters do."
The story was soon painted into a cartoon by the cartoonist Cliff Berryman and published in the Washington Post, which is well known throughout the country. Then - according to the more popular saying - a small shop owner in New York, Morris Mitchington, made a toy bear and sent it to the White House, urging the president to agree to the name Teddy. The president promised. The world has had a teddy bear since then. The teddy bear of the Prince's Building is a response to distant legends.
Interestingly, in the first comic of Berryman, the height of the black bear is similar to that of a hunter, obviously an old bear. When he later repainted the cartoon for other newspapers, the black bear became smaller and he looked like a cute bear. Now, almost all the legends about the teddy bear have become the story of Roosevelt's release of the bear. The urban consumption myth needs more "reader" style of warmth and completeness. In fact, the old Roosevelt was very simple and very eager to tell the man to destroy the black bear that was struggling to survive and hopelessly.
Now in China, but know Teddy Bear, Anzhi Roosevelt? When it comes to Roosevelt, most of it is Roosevelt, the disabled president who has been fighting polio for the rest of his life. Roosevelt is the distant church of Old Roosevelt. As far as the merits are concerned, Ronaldinho never loses Lao Luo. The implementation of the New Deal ends with a depression and leads the World War II. He is re-elected as the fourth president, and the success of the work is unprecedented. However, in terms of reputation, Lao Luo is far above Ronaldinho. He and Washington, Jefferson, and Lincoln called the greatest president in American history and were hailed as the greatest president of the United States in the 20th century. The recent presidents of the United States have the image of Theodore Roosevelt on the desk. In 2006, almost 90 years after the death of Old Roosevelt, the most influential "Time" magazine in the United States made him a cover person, titled: Create the United States.
Why is Roosevelt, who is not particularly good at his career, and his last presidential election lost to Democrat Wilson, would he be so respected? How many questions can be answered in the chapters of the newly listed American-American scholar Sun Longji, "America's Auntie Culture".
The general commentary believes that the historical contribution of Old Roosevelt was at the beginning of the last century, opening the way for future US domestic and international policies. Sun Longji integrated the arguments of some American historians and looked for explanations from another angle.
Sun Longji said that the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries was the transition period of American culture. With the official end of the bloody frontier, the rise of secularized modernism, Americans generally feel anxious. "People are worried that modern civilization is overly familiar, and that natural instinct will cause ethnic degradation and civilization to fall." This question has no answer in the mainstream European culture that the United States has continued.
Old Roosevelt became the hero of the times. He has lived through hard life and colorful. He was sick and sick from childhood and was bullied. In order to resist, "he rebuilds his body and mind with iron discipline", exercises weightlifting, practice boxing, learn to ride horses, and learn to shoot. He later faced the gangster pointing his gun at his head and uniformed his uppercut. After entering Harvard University, he is an elite student with outstanding knowledge and broad-minded sports. At the age of twenty-three, he just published an academic monograph on naval warfare. Later he was engaged in elections and was a Wrangler and a Sheriff. He wrote a four-volume history of Western development and was elected president of the American Historical Society. At the age of 37, he became the head of the New York Police Department. At the age of thirty-nine, he served as the deputy head of the US Navy He is the first politician in the United States to look to the world, develop the navy, and regard the ocean as the new frontier of the United States. His ambitious naval construction guaranteed the victory of the United States in the battle of the United States and the West. After the outbreak of the American-Western War, he resigned as the deputy head of the Navy, and led a half-civilian detachment team to fight in Cuba and win the victory. As a war hero, he entered the highest political leadership in the United States, first as the vice president, and then succeeded the president.
Old Roosevelt is very similar to the heroine of the Jin Yong novel, the Chinese Wu and the Ziyi Tianyun, who is the hero of the world. Qiao Feng is a fictional character, but Lao Luo is a real American. In his belief in life, action is always better than speech, and outdoor is always better than indoors, and nature is always better than artificial. He became the answer to the confusion of the United States.
That is to say, in the era of Roosevelt's administration, a special species in American culture, the wilderness of the western wilderness, matured. "With the direct encouragement and advice of Roosevelt, his Harvard schoolchildren Owen West began to create western literary novels. The "Virginians" he published in 1902 was the ancestor of modern western novels." Today, Strong, decent, rude, direct Western pioneers are still considered the most typical Americans.
Old Roosevelt particularly likes a slang in West Africa: Speak softly and carry a big stick, you will go far. Someone translated as "warm words in the mouth, big stick in hand", yes, but a bit literary. I would rather translate it literally into a simple way: to speak soft words, your future is bound to be great.
