如果”最无耻教师”范美忠在几十年前的日本会怎样 天涯论坛

1912年4月15日,泰坦尼克号巨轮在首航中撞上了冰山。正如影片《泰坦尼克》中所表现的那样,在巨轮沉没之前船长决定:将有限的求生机会留给妇女和儿童。几乎所有的成年男子都既自愿又无奈地等待死神的到来。

但是,在那生死存亡的时刻,一个名叫细野正文的日本籍乘客男扮女装,冒着被水手们认出打死的危险,爬上了载满妇女和儿童的救生船。他混迹在一群妇孺羸弱者之中,侥幸捡回了一条性命。

然而,细野正文上岸后无法掩饰自己的性别和身份。他的丑陋嘴脸和名字,一夜之间出现在世界各大媒体上,自然也传到了日本。

细野正文回国后,他万万没有想到,自己简直成了整个民族的“耻辱”和“败类”。他先是接到了如雪片般飞来的充满愤怒与谴责的信件,接着又收到了他供职的运 动厅的解雇信,然后是象征着男人地位的武士身份被取消。他逃生的卑鄙行径被编入了日本的教科书,成了教育下一代的反面典型。

从此,他陷入了万劫不复的深渊,在巨大的羞辱中苟延残喘地熬过了自己的后半生。他活得不正直,死得也不坦然。

在细野正文撒手人寰的时候,一位记者也发表了盖棺论定的评论:

“有的人活着他已经死了,有的人死了他还活着。死者若不埋在人们的心中,那就是真正死掉了。在泰坦尼克号巨轮上将求生机会留给妇女和儿童的那些男人,将永远活在人们的心中;而细野正文,则在人们的心目中早已死掉了。他耻辱地多活了些年,还不如当时勇敢地死去。”

细野正文是视弱者不顾抢夺生路,范美忠是丢下自己的学生不顾狂奔逃生且不以为耻反以为荣。

作为教师,在校园内,谁都有责任、有义务优先保护自己的学生;否则失职,这不是个纯粹的私德或个人意愿问题!

Masabumi Hosono, 42, a civil servant from Tokyo, was the only Japanese passenger on the Titanic. He joined the vessel at Southampton and was rescued in lifeboat 13 (?10)

Hosono began to write a letter in English to his wife on Titanic headed notepaper but after his rescue he wrote in Japanese of his experience.

Hosono was woken by a knock on the door of his second class cabin. He raced outside but, as a foreigner, was ordered to the lower decks, away from the boats. 'All the while flares signalling emergency were being shot into the air ceaselessly, and hideous blue flashes and noises were simply terrifying. Somehow I could in no way dispel the feeling of utter dread and desolation,' Hosono wrote.

Making his way back to the upper deck. 'I tried to prepare myself for the last moment with no agitation, making up my mind not to leave anything disgraceful as a Japanese. But still I found myself looking for and waiting for any possible chance for survival.'

His chance came when an officer loading lifeboats shouted 'Room for two more.' A man jumped in. 'I myself was deep in desolate thought that I would no more be able to see my beloved wife and children, since there was no alternative for me than to share the same destiny as the Titanic. But the example of the first man making a jump led me to take this last chance.'

'After the ship sank there came back again frightful shrills and cries of those drowning in the water. Our lifeboat too was filled with sobbing, weeping children and women worried about the safety of their husbands and fathers. 'And I, too, was as much depressed and miserable as they were, not knowing what would become of myself in the long run.'

Hosono was rescued in lifeboat 13 but was attacked in his own country for doing so when so many others had died. His ministry sacked him, Japanese papers calumnied his cowardice, textbooks cited his survival as a model of shameful behaviour, and a professor of ethics denounced him as immoral. When a Japanese liner sank in 1954, Hosono was again dragged through the mud. Hosono died in 1939, a broken man.

His family had known for years that this diary existed but it remained hidden at the bottom of a drawer until recently. Hosono's granddaughter Yuriko made the find public.
