《游褒禅山记》

《游褒禅山记》 is the [[WangAnshi|王安石]] prose text used in 164.古文的力量：请收下这份千年未变的深情、洞见和勇气 to discuss ideal, effort, and failure. The episode uses the travel-record frame less as scenic writing than as a way to think about whether a person can still count a failed pursuit as meaningful when they have truly tried.

The source connects the text to Wang Anshi’s later political fate without making a simple verdict on [[WangAnshiReforms|王安石变法]]. QinZong’s reading holds two claims together: Wang Anshi may not have resolved the contradiction between imperial power and reform ideals, but his private moral standard of “尽吾志” still gives modern listeners a model of Subjectivity Through Failure / 失败中的主体性.
