works appreciation
The first poem is a poem with scenery as a metaphor. The whole poem takes Fangtang as a metaphor, vividly expressing a subtle and unspeakable reading feeling. The pond is not a pool of stagnant water, but often full of living water, so it is as clear as a mirror, reflecting the sky and clouds. This situation is quite similar when the same person gets through the problem, gains new knowledge and gains a lot of benefits in reading, and raises awareness.
In particular, the phrase "ask how clear the canal is, and there is flowing water from the source" means that the clarity of water is due to the continuous injection of flowing water from the source, which means that if people want to be clear-headed, they must study hard and constantly supplement new knowledge. Therefore, people often use it as a metaphor to constantly learn new knowledge in order to reach a new realm.
People also use these two poems to praise a person's achievements in study or art, which has its deep roots. Readers can also get inspiration from this poem. Only when their thoughts are always active, open-minded, broad-minded, receptive to different ideas and fresh knowledge, and inclusive, can they keep thinking and keep new water flowing out. These two poems are condensed into a common idiom "the source of living water", which is used to describe the source and motive force of the development of things. ?
The second poem is a poem with the help of images. It takes boating as an example to let readers know the truth related to learning. The poem says that when the boat was shallow, it was futile for everyone to push the boat hard. When the spring water surges, even the huge ship is as light as a feather and floats freely in the water.
Poetry highlights the importance of spring water. When a rising tide lifts all boats, you can become familiar with it. Once the artistic creation of calligraphy is inspired, it can make the style of writing smooth at once. This is an image metaphor, which is not only an essential process of calligraphy art, but also an important essence of general artistic creation. Of course, this poem can also be understood from another angle, that is, Zhu saw the concise and vivid skills of calligraphy works and tasted the artistic truth that practice makes perfect. ?
