His Spear Against His Shield

Watch a silent video of a Chinese fable and produce an aside for it.

His Spear Against His Shield In the state of Chu there was a man who had a spear and a shield for sale. He was loud in praises of his shield.

“My shield is so strong that nothing can pierce it through.”

He also sang praises of his spear. “My spear is so strong that it can pierce through anything.”

“What would happen,” he was asked, “if your spear is used to pierce your shield?”

He was unable to give an answer.

Moral: It is impossible for an impenetrable shield to coexist with a spear that finds nothing impenetrable.

Buying shoes on a measured size rather than by trying on with one’s own feet

A man of the state of Zheng wanted to buy a pair of shoes. He measured his foot and put the measurement on a chair. When he set out for the market he forgot to bring it along. It was after he had found the pair he wanted that this occurred to him. I forgot the measurement, said he. He went home to get it but when he returned the market had broken up and he did not get his shoes after all. Why didn‘t you try on the shoes with your feet? He was asked. I’d rather trust the measurement than trust myself.

郑人买履

Lord Ye's love of Dragons

In the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476BC), there lived in Chu a person named Chu Zhuliang, who addressed himself as “Lord Ye”. It’s said that this Lord Ye was very fond of dragons. The walls had dragons painted on them. The beams and pillars and the doors and the windows were all carved with them. As a result, his love for dragons was spread out. When the real dragon in heaven heard of this Lord Ye, he was deeply moved. He decided to visit Lord Ye to thank him. You might think Lord Ye would have been very happy to see a real dragon. But, in fact, at the sight of the creature, he was scared out of his wits and ran away as fast as he could. From then on, people knew that Lord Ye only loved pictures or carvings which look like dragons, not the real thing.

叶公好龙

Making His Mark

A man from the state of Chu was crossing a river. In the boat, his sword fell into the water. Immediately he made a mark on the boat.

　　“ This is where my sword fell off.” he said.

　　 When the boat stopped moving, he went into the water to look for his sword at the place where he had marked the boat.

　　 The boat had moved but the sword had not. Is this not a very foolish way to look for a sword?

剑刻舟求

　 Learn to walk in Handan

　 During the Warring States Period (475-221 BC), Handan, the capital of the State of Zhao, was famous for people’s walking style. They walked in vigorous elegant strides. People in other places admired them very much. They thought the Handan way of walking was the best under the heaven. Several young lads from the State of Yan even wanted to copy the elegant walking style of the Zhao people. So they traveled a long way to Handan to learn how to walk.

邯郸学步

　 Learn to walk in Handan

　　 While in Handan, these young lads watched the local people carefully, eager to find out how they walked. But however they tried, they just couldn’t walk the way the Handan people did. To make things worse, when they decide to give up and go home, they found they had forgotten their own way of walking. They had to crawl all the way back.　 From this fable comes the idiom “Learn to walk in Handan”. We use this idiom to describe someone who imitates others blindly only to lose his own individuality

Aping a Beauty

Xi Shi, a famous beauty, had a pain in her bosom, so she had a frown on her face when she went out. An ugly girl who lived nearby saw her and thought she looked very beautiful therefore when she went home, she also put her hands on her bosom and had a frown on her face.

　　 When a rich man in the neighborhood saw her, he shut his doors tightly and did not go out. When a poor man saw her, he took his wife and children and gave her a wide berth.

　　 She only knew Xi Shi’s frown looked beautiful but she did not know the reason for its beauty.
