Gaoshi
There are many acquaintances in the world, which is not the case.
Calligraphy is natural, and drunken language is particularly bold and crazy.
Don't ask him anything if his hair is gray as if nothing had happened; There are only white clouds floating in the sky.
A pot of wine beside the bed can make you sleep better.
Gao Shi, Volume 1, Ode to History, has been introduced. In the 24th year of Xuanzong Kaiyuan (736), the poet was recruited to Chang 'an to take the system examination, but nothing happened. The following year, I made friends with Zhang Xu, Yan Zhenqing and other celebrities in Beijing, and gave Zhang Jiuxu after getting drunk as this time. Zhang Jiuxu, a native of Zhang Xu and Wuxian (now Suzhou, Jiangsu), is the ninth. A famous calligrapher, who was once the history of Zuo Ci, was known as the "sage of grass".
The first comment on the social atmosphere of making friends. Criticize the bad social atmosphere of making friends. "A casual acquaintance" is explained in Shen Deqian's Three Hundred Poems of Tang Dynasty in the Qing Dynasty: "Secular friendship is not close, but a casual acquaintance is also called a casual acquaintance." The second sentence fully affirmed Zhang Xu's attitude towards making friends. In Qing Dynasty, people bent on Volume 8 of the Notes on Tang Poetry: "Only these two sentences have revealed Zhang Xuzhi's human nature."
The following six sentences specifically describe Zhang Xu's behavior and temperament. Three sentences about Zhang Xu's achievements in calligraphy, The Book of the New Tang Dynasty, Biography of Literature and Art, said that he was "a heavy drinker, and every time he got drunk, he called himself crazy, but he wrote with his head immersed in ink, and when he woke up, he thought he was a god and couldn't get it back". "Star" tells us that he wrote books on his own initiative, without any planning or utilitarian purpose. "Self-sanctification of books" refers to the extraordinary sanctification of nature. This poem has two meanings: first, although his calligraphy is spontaneous, it has reached the realm of extraordinary holiness. Secondly, it is precisely because his calligraphy is spontaneous that he has reached the realm of extraordinary holiness. In a word, Zhang Xu was drunk and out of his mind. Zhang Xu has a nickname called Zhang Dian. The word "point" reveals his personality characteristics, while the word "drunk" shows that his madness is conditional, understandable and accurate.
In five words, he didn't make progress and grew old in idleness. The Book of the New Tang Dynasty, Biography of Literature and Art, said that he was "a Changshu official at the beginning. An old man asked a question, and when he came back, he was angry and annoyed and blamed him." This shows that he doesn't care about political achievements and promotion, and he is not interested in tedious paperwork. Six sentences said that he was appointed as a doctor of calligraphy by Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. According to the records in Volume 21 of Six Classics of Tang Dynasty, the doctor of calligraphy is located in imperial academy, and his rank is below the Nine Grades. Although the position is not high, it is an honor to have this position, because both Tang Taizong and Tang Xuanzong attached great importance to calligraphy. Of course, Zhang Xu himself won't care about this.
William described Zhang Xuzhi's liberal life. There is a jar of wine by the bed. Drink if you want, and sleep when you are drunk, because considering that life is short, he often doesn't drink or sleep. "Duo" means return, and it can be meaningful.
Fortunately, this poem describes Zhang Xu's wild character. Gao Shi himself is a headstrong person, and his life path is very bumpy, so he can have a deep understanding of Zhang Xu's character. Moreover, this poem was written by the poet after he was drunk, which has something in common with Zhang Xu's drunken writing, so it is also hearty. This poem begins with two sentences in structure, and six sentences directly describe Zhang Xu's behavior and temperament. It's amazing, too. It didn't happen overnight.
