Celebrities of historical fast poems:
1. Cao Zhi: He is the youngest son of Cao Cao. He was gifted since he was a child and was loved by his father. After Cao Cao's death, his younger brother Cao Pi became the emperor of Wei. Cao Pi is a jealous man. He was worried that his younger brother would threaten his throne and wanted to kill him. One day, Cao Pi called Cao Zhi to him and asked him to write a poem within seven steps to prove his talent in writing poetry. If he can't write it, it will be tantamount to deceiving the emperor and putting him to death. Cao Zhi was sad and angry when he knew that his brother was going to kill him. He choked back his grief and thought hard ... Sure enough, he wrote a seven-step poem and read it out on the spot: soaking in the kettle, beans crying in the kettle. Born from the same root, why are you in such a hurry?
2. Du Fu: The news that "the banks of the Yellow River were recovered by the imperial army" is in this distant West Railway Station! The north has been recovered! At first, I couldn't stop crying on my coat. Where are my wife and son? There is not a trace of sadness on their faces. However, I packed my books and poems crazily. On a green spring day, I began to go home, singing my songs loudly and drinking my wine. Come back from this mountain, pass another mountain, go up from the south and then go north-to my own town! .
[Content] This seven-rhythm poem was written in 763 AD. This spring, Tang Jun recovered a large area of land in the Central Plains, and Du Fu's hometown was also recovered. The theme of the poem is to express the joy of hearing the good news that the rebellion has subsided and returning home. The first pair of couplets truly shows the poet's great sadness and mixed feelings when he suddenly heard the news and reported the good news. The couplets highlight "ecstasy" and the whole family enjoys the joy of victory. The first sentence of the necklace is a concrete expression of "ecstasy", but the second sentence actually reveals the reason of "ecstasy". It's spring, and it's time to "go home" with Da Chun. In the last two sentences, the poet flies wildly, is in Zizhou, and his heart has returned to his hometown. This poem of Du Fu was highly praised by later poetic theories, and Pu Yin Long of A Qing Dynasty regarded it as "the first quick poem in Lao Du's life".
In fact, there were many talented poets in ancient China, such as Ji Xiaolan, Shen Deqian and Liu Yong.
Where does "Kuai" in Du Fu's first Kuai poem come from?
True, sincere and sincere, impure and sincere, not moving. Therefore, those who cry are sad but not sad, those who are angry are strict but not arrogant, and those who are close to them laugh but not happy. It's really quiet, it's really angry but not angry, and it's really that relatives don't laugh. If truth is inside and God is outside, that's why truth is precious.
-Zhuangzi
The reason why a poem can be passed down through the ages is not only because of the flawless language, but also because of the deep affection contained in the poem, which makes us still moved after reading it for thousands of years. This is the poet's true feeling. Zhuangzi pays more attention to the truth of poetry, the primitive way of expressing feelings, and emphasizes that the true meaning of poetry lies in emotional people, not in the beauty of words, nor in the application of creative skills.
It is not unreasonable that the two sides of the Yellow River recovered by the imperial army were praised by later generations as Du Fu's first quick poem in his life. It is a sincere expression of true feelings and can give people an emotional sense of identity, so it is still welcomed through the ages. "The news of this distant western station! The north has been recovered! "I smell tears at the beginning of clothes" is the only unforgettable sentence in the whole poem, which gives us a vague understanding of what happened at that time. This poem was written in the spring of the first year of Guangde, when Du Fu was living in Zizhou. In the first month of this year, the rebel leader Shi Chaoyi committed suicide, and the rebels surrendered one after another. The eight-year An Shi Rebellion is finally over. Du Fu suffered from the war, but also worried about the country and the people. Hearing the news, he was ecstatic and blurted out the poem.
There is no joy for no reason, and there is no sadness for no reason. Du Fu's life was bumpy and brilliant, but he didn't meet his own talent. He has no choice but to serve the country and live among the people. After the Anshi Rebellion, he saw through the profound disaster brought by the war to the people. "The wine in Zhumen stinks and the bones on the road freeze to death" is the truest portrayal. He sympathized with the poor living in dire straits and wrote many poems recording their sufferings, such as Three Officials, Military Vehicle Shop and Mourning for the Head.
It can be said that he has been longing for the early end of the war and hopes that the people can live in peace and contentment. In the war-torn era, although he is eager to make some contributions to the country and the people, he can't start, and there are countless feelings in his heart, just like a silent volcano. Before that, his poetic style was gloomy, slow and deep. Whether sketching people's sufferings and homesickness or writing about their own poverty, his feelings are profound and broad.
However, The Two Banks of the Yellow River were Recovered by the Imperial Army changed its gloomy and frustrated state, and the poem was written in a flowing and coherent way, so it was rated as "the fastest poem in Du Fu's life" by later generations, such as "Du Yan Shi Zhi": "Looking at its eight sentences at one stroke and pressing it carefully, it is infinitely wonderful and true to life." The poet's dream has finally come true, like a silent volcano bursting out, unstoppable, and the deep feelings accumulated by the poet for many years finally bursting out, which can't help but be unpleasant.
Savoring this poem carefully, the poet "at first I couldn't stop tears pouring on my coat" couldn't help crying after hearing the good news. It was tears of joy and tears of finally returning to my hometown and no longer wandering in a foreign land; It is to shed tears for the people to stop suffering from war and live a stable life again; I shed tears of joy because I finally saw the country reunified and no longer divided. Such deep feelings turn into tears in an instant, so we can't help worrying.
"Where are my wife and son? There is not a trace of sadness on their faces. However, I packed my books and poems crazily. I looked back at his wife, swept away his gloom, packed his poems and books, and was ecstatic. In this poem, it is emphasized that "ecstasy", "meeting a wife" and "rambling poetry books" are all dressed up, and the poems of "returning home" at the back have a strong sense of rhythm and are interlocking, such as mountains and streams flowing in one go. The last four sentences are the poet anxious to return, who is looking forward to his wife while drinking while sorting out his poetry books.
In the last two sentences, "come back from this mountain, pass another mountain, come up from the south, and then go north-to my own town!" " I fantasize about going down the river to my hometown, as if it were only a moment, which shows how happy the poet is in his heart! When I think of going home, I immediately see four representative places on my way home: Basha, Wuxia, Xiangyang and Luoyang. It seems that all the Qianshan waters on the trip are just a few icons on the map. You don't have to worry about anything, as long as you can go home. This is the same as in Li Bai's "Early White City". "Farewell to Bai Di, you can return it in one day." Have the same effect.
Verbs such as "sudden biography", "first smell", "Dan Kan" and "ramble" in the poem strengthen the color of suddenness and randomness; Connecting four place names with words such as "cong", "cong", "cong", "cong" and "cong" has produced a lightning-fast trend. Feelings are smooth, coherent and integrated, and are not bound by law. Show sudden ecstasy to the extreme. It is not difficult to see the poet's efforts in refining words and making sentences. No wonder Su Shi once said, "How many people in the world learn from Du Fu? Who got his skin and bones? "
In the last two sentences, the verbs used are elegant. "The gorge is steep and narrow. To put it bluntly, it is easy to get out of the gorge. Therefore, Xiangyang must be changed to Luoyang, so the word item is used. " Puzhu-eight poems, flying like flies, are the fastest poems in my life! (1) In the poem, the poet lists the place names one by one, giving people a sense of urgency to return home.
Therefore, the origin of Du Fu's first quick poem can be briefly explained from several aspects. Of course, this is just my humble opinion. I'm just laughing at the generous family. The first is the sincere expression of feelings, sudden ecstasy, as turbulent as a volcanic eruption, which is also fast. Secondly, the poems are closely linked and interlocking. Every time the last sentence serves the previous sentence, the front paves the way for the back, and the back answers the previous question. Like the running water of a mountain, it can't be disconnected anywhere, and it has a strong sense of rhythm, such as flowing water. Thirdly, vivid verbs are used to connect four representative places on the way home, namely "from", "wear", "get off" and "arrive", which vividly expresses the imagination of returning home like an arrow. In addition, the poet's emotional changes in poetry are also "fast", from "tears spilled on his skirt" to "ecstasy" and "singing in the daytime", and a few words appropriately reveal the poet's inner excitement, joy and complex feelings. However, due to its own shallow reasons, I can only get a glimpse of this poem, and I don't know the richness contained in it. I can only say some superficial views on this poem from the above points, hoping that readers will make valuable criticisms and suggestions.
