    从牛到爱


    今天中午看到《大家》栏目介绍钱三强的夫人何泽慧----今年已92岁高龄的老院士。
    其中介绍钱老的住处时,特意提到了挂在书房墙上的四个字“从牛到爱”,这是1932年19岁钱三强考入清华物理系时其父钱玄同书赠的,这四个字也成了钱三强以后的座右铭。
    关于“从牛到爱”钱玄同老先生的解释是
    一个是很喜爱钱三强属牛的这种性格,这种劲
    第二呢,既然你选择了物理系,就要向牛顿、爱因斯坦看齐。
    。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
     另一文献解释:在一代代新的“世家子”中,由传统的文史之学转向理工学科似乎有一定的典型性,早期的如夏曾佑之子夏元琛任北大理科学长(严复、蔡元培主政北大期间),稍晚的如粱启超之子梁思成转攻建筑学,钱玄同之子钱三强以核物理为志业,与钱玄同一起在东京听章太炎讲课的钱均夫之子钱学森学习空气动力学。由文史变为理工,虽然还可以目之为学术,但这新的学术已经不是家学传承所能容纳和延续的了。这种转变不单是新一代的选择,也反映了老一代的取向,父不以传家学为责,子自然亦不以承家学为志。钱玄同书赠儿子钱三强作为终生座右铭的“从牛到爱”(从牛顿到爱因斯坦)四个字,既标示心态与潮流所向,也体现了知识重心的转移。
