Poetry about canned artichokes

1. Sentences or poems describing the tenderness of a strong man

"Gaixia Song"

During the period of the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony: Xiang Yu

Powerful to conquer the mountains The world is filled with overwhelming energy,

The times are not favorable and the good will never fade away.

There is nothing you can do if your talent is not gone,

What can you do if you are worried?

Translation: Strength can lift mountains, and spirit can be unparalleled, but bad luck can lead to a BMW. No matter how hard it is to run a Mercedes-Benz, what can you do if a BMW doesn’t run a Mercedes-Benz? Yu Ji, Yu Ji, how should I arrange it for you?

Poetry appreciation:

The first sentence of the poem creates an unparalleled heroic image. In ancient China, "Qi" not only originated from people's innate endowment, but also relied on acquired cultivation; a person's character, ability, demeanor, etc. all depended on "Qi". The so-called "unparalleled" means that he surpasses anyone else in these aspects.

Although this is a general narrative, the three words "Strengthen the Mountain" show a specific and vivid effect. Therefore, in this sentence, by combining the virtual and the real, he puts himself The all-powerful spirit was vividly revealed.

However, in the second and third sentences, this unparalleled hero suddenly became pale and powerless. These two sentences mean that due to unfavorable weather conditions, the famous horse he was riding, the Wuzui horse, could not move forward. This put him in a desperate situation of failure and could not extricate himself, so he had to call out "Naihe".

The reason why "Zui"'s "immortality" has caused such serious consequences is because, in Xiang Yu's view, he was able to achieve such great achievements mainly because of this famous horse; With its cooperation, he can be invincible.

In other words, he almost conquered the world alone, so his most important comrade-in-arms was Wu Zima. As for others, they played a very minimal role in his career. Their support was It doesn't play much role in his success or failure, so he only needs to pay attention to Wu Zima.

This also means: His power makes it meaningless for anyone to help him. No one is worthy of being his main comrade. This kind of arrogance is unparalleled, and he can be said to be the only one in the world.

However, no matter how brave and invincible he is, once the weather is unfavorable, he has no other choice but to perish. In front of the mysterious "Heaven", humans are very insignificant; even the greatest heroes among humans cannot withstand a slight blow from "Heaven".

Content determination

Determination according to high performance liquid chromatography (Appendix VI D).

Chromatographic conditions and system suitability experiment uses octadecylsilane bonded silica gel as the filler, methanol-water-glacial acetic acid (48:52:1) as the mobile phase, and the detection wavelength is 287nm. The number of theoretical plates calculated based on silibinin peak should not be less than 5,000.

Preparation of reference solution: Take 0.5g of this product powder (passed through No. 3 sieve), weigh it accurately, place it in a stoppered conical flask, add 50ml of 75% methanol accurately, weigh it, and heat to reflux Let cool for 30 minutes, weigh again, make up for the lost weight with 75% methanol, shake well, let it stand, and take the supernatant.

Determination method: Precisely draw 5 μL each of the reference solution and the test solution, inject them into the liquid chromatograph, and measure. Calculate the sum of the two peak areas of silibinin.

Calculated as a dry product, this product contains no less than 0.6% silybin (C25H22O10) [3 3. Introduce Xia Yu’s poems

Xia Yu, whose real name is Huang Qingqi, was born in 1956. Graduated from the Film and Drama Department of the National Art School. She started writing poetry at the age of nineteen. She is a female poet who made her fortune very early. She participated in grassroots poetry societies in her early days. Before the collection of poems was published, she was selected into the "Anthology of Modern Women Poets" compiled by Zhang Mo in 1981, which shows her high profile. degree, and in 1984 won the second place in the first modern poetry selection held by "Chinese and Foreign Literature". In September of the same year, he self-published a collection of poems called "Memorandum" that resembled a work of craftsmanship. One of them, "Sweet Revenge," has made many poetry readers and non-poetry readers immersed in pickled happiness. "Ventriloquism" published in 1991, with its leaping thinking and feminine writing charm, strives to tease the boundaries and diversity of poetry. It is worth mentioning that the appendix at the end of the collection of poems is a written conversation between Wan Xuting and Xia Yu in the twelfth issue of "Modern Poetry" in 1988, which gives a glimpse of some of his creative views, especially the discussion between copying and originality. The concept has another presentation in "Friction, Indescribable" published in 1995: a new collection of poems made by enlarging and photocopying the original manuscript of "Ventriloquism", then cutting and reorganizing it, even if it contains familiar words or difficult words. The material seeks changes, and the author has ulterior motives in expressing his thoughts in content or binding. In the late summer of 1999, Xia Yu published a "raunchy" poetry collection of the same name. Among them, the works best illustrate the definition of "respective expression". This non-mainstream whisper attracted the attention of Taiwanese small theaters who put his poems on stage for publication.

In Xia Yu’s creations, she can often use some simple metaphors, project/satire on reality, and put on interesting and eye-catching titles, so that people can see the meaning in the compact poems. She interprets the world/emotions/language from another perspective. It is like using an empty plastic bottle that is difficult to deal with, useless but troublesome to metaphorize an expired lover. Such a creative association, and echoing the title "Autumn Sorrow", makes it even more tense. "Autumn" is a season that symbolizes separation. The sadness should be due to the reluctant farewell, but here, the sadness is the embarrassing feeling caused by the inability to let go/throw away. It greatly reverses the image of a woman who suffers a change of heart, and embodies the rare "sovereignty lies with the woman" emotionally.

For example, in the poem "Canned Fish - A Wedding for a Friend", cheap cans are used as a metaphor that are easy to buy and eat, but contain many artificial additives to prevent food from spoiling. My own views on the "institution of marriage". Among them, the emotions of the fish/married men and women who left the sea and used their best to be canned are beyond the understanding of the ocean/family. The ocean is deep and complex and cannot be seen clearly by relatives and friends on the coast/outside the incident. However, in this way The stories/social rituals and systems are so popular/universal, but scarlet/joyful/bloody. Ultimately, it is because the tomato sauce in the can is exactly the same, the ubiquitous tomato sauce/social internalization consciousness-getting married, having children, and a happy family. The fish, which was full of flavor, also lost its fresh color. The "canned fish" that seems to have nothing to do with the warm wedding is combined in Xia Yu's words, so that everyone thought it was the only unique combination. In the eyes of the poet, it actually tastes ordinary, and there is an unavoidable sweetness. Tired and fishy. People have to think about the proportion of happiness and sacrifice behind the lively wedding.

Xia Yu, who is so good at using symbols and images in poetry, discusses this issue in a carnival style in another article, "The Missing Elephant". The entire poem is actually based on the "Ming Xiang" chapter in ancient Chinese literature that talks about the relationship between images and meanings. In the original text, the original hexagram symbols/xiangs referred to are all animals, plants, and even everyday things. Replace it with what you see. At first glance, this seems like a ridiculous game of erasure, but it is actually the author's light-hearted way of making fun of the authority of patriarchal classics. Moreover, the vivid and cute alternative patterns express the "image" - everything under the control of male language is not the only one, and the "facts" can be more, better, and more interesting.

Of course, Xia Yu’s poems are always full of experimentation. She is an excellent navigator when it comes to adventures in words and meanings. The scenery everyone sees is another problem that is difficult to unify. Perhaps this is the reading pleasure she cleverly provides.
