Appreciation of Han Yu's Answer to Li Yishu

Appreciation of the article Han Yuli (1)

On June 26, more white, Li Shengxian step:

The book of life speaks highly, but asks and does respectfully! If so, who doesn't want to tell stories? Morality will return one day, but what about the outside world? Restrain those who only look at Confucius' door wall and don't enter his palace, how do you know if it's right? Although, you have to make a living.

So is the person who makes the statement. The person who makes the expectation is very similar to the person who makes the expectation. If you don't know your ambition to live, you will be better than others, and you will take the evil of others. Could ancient speakers be evil? You are better than others, take others' and you are better than others, take others'. As for the ancient sayings, there is no hope of quick success and instant benefit, and there is no temptation of snobbery. Take its roots and realize it, add its cream and hope for its glory. Genwang, Gao Wang. Benevolent people, their words are like 9.

No matter how difficult people are, the more they do, the less they know that they are still there. Although, I have studied for more than twenty years. Han Shu of Three Dynasties was not written by the founder, and the ambition of non-saints does not exist. If this place is forgotten, if this line is left behind, it will be like a dream, like a mystery. When it's in your heart and hand, it's hard to stop! It looks at people and doesn't know whether to laugh or not. If that's the case, I won't change it for years, and then I'll know whether the ancient book {1 1} is true or false, and it's clear whether {12} is white or black. And to go, it is Xu Youde also. When it is taken out of the heart and injected into the hand, it will make a cackling sound. Its view of people is the same. When you laugh, you feel happy, when you like it, you feel sad, and when you say it's still there, it's still there. If so, it will be several years, and then it will be boundless. I am also afraid of its miscellaneous things, so welcome it and stay away from it {13}. I will look at it calmly, it will all become mellow, and then I will become rude. Although, you can't stay. It depends on the way of benevolence and righteousness, and on the source of poetry and books. There is no end to the lost path, and the source power is endless.

Gas, water also; Words, floating things also. When the water is big, things float, and the size is up and down. Qi's words are still right, and Qi's words are short and loud. Even so, how much does it dare to claim? Although it is successful {14}, how can it be used to ridicule people? Although, if it is used on people, its Xiao {15} is evil? Use and give it to everyone. A gentleman is not, but he is kind-hearted and does his own thing well; If you use it, give it to others, if you leave it, pass it on to your disciples. If you hang up, it will be a {16} law for later generations. If so, is it also a pleasure? Isn't it fun enough?

People who are interested in the past hope so. If you yearn for the past, you will be left behind today. I am sincerely happy and sad. I am eager to call him {17}, so I advised him not to praise him or belittle him. There are many people who ask for healing, and it is unprofitable to think about life, and they all talk about each other. The whiter.

Answer to Li Yixin is a reply from Han Yu to Yi Li in the seventeenth year of Zhenyuan in Tang Dezong (80 1), and it is also a famous epistolary prose. In the Qing Dynasty, Yu Shu once commented: "Han Changli's papers are rare, and his whole life is devoted to Yi Li." Focusing on "don't look forward to it, don't seek its snobbery", this paper describes my experience of studying for writing, and puts forward the literary ideas of "speaking enthusiastically and appropriately" and "doing things well", which shows the author's courage and indomitable spirit of attacking the secular.

Han Yu said at the beginning of the article: "The book of life is highly worded, but it is respectfully asked! If so, who doesn't want to tell the truth? One day, when morality returns, what about its foreign language? " It can be seen that he believes that virtue is the core of the article, and the article is the carrier of virtue, or an external form of expression. Only with noble moral cultivation, a sense of mission to help the world, and sympathy for the weak, can we have honest and frank's outspoken personality, speak out when there is injustice, write books when there is anger, dare to plead for the people, and dare to shout for all justice and truth.

When talking about his learning experience, Han Yu emphasized his meticulous study of ancient books, such as "only doing what he said" and "recognizing the authenticity of ancient books and those who are correct but not thoughtful". What's more, he pointed out that after his knowledge had reached a very high level ("vast and rich"), he still did not abandon the spirit of doubt, "keep a distance from him and observe calmly", and finally learned pure Taoist thought.

This thought is also consistent with the theory of "writing carries Tao" that he has always advocated. Although Han Yu advocated learning from the past and advocating that "literature carries Tao", he did not obliterate the fundamental attribute of "literature"-"personality". "Make the past serve the present" is precisely to oppose the stereotyped writing style since the Six Dynasties. "Carrying Tao" is precisely to convey the ambition of self-cultivation, keeping the family in order, governing the country and leveling the world.

In this letter, Han Yu holds high the banner of Confucianism's respect for the ancient times, and asks young Confucian scholars to set their learning goal as "a scholar who speaks the ancient times", study hard, not be eager for quick success, and "repair their roots, add their paste and hope for their glory". Learning and self-cultivation are two-in-one problems from Confucius and Mencius. Learning is self-cultivation, which Mencius said. Han Yu also said that the way to learn "can't be abandoned", and it's never too late to learn and keep it. "In accordance with the way of righteousness, swim in the source of poetry. There is no lost way, no source, only my body. " After this accomplishment, you can be a gentleman.

In addition, the brush strokes of this paper are delicate and the transition is natural and smooth. In this paper, sentences such as "I forgot my position, I forgot my deeds, I thought about it, and I was fascinated by it" are used to describe how to concentrate on reading and compare abstract things with concrete things, which is vivid, vivid and appropriate.
