Extended data:
Looking at Dongting is a poem written by Liu Yuxi, a writer in the Tang Dynasty. This poem describes the beautiful scenery of Dongting Lake under the autumn moon, expresses the poet's love and praise for the scenery of Dongting Lake, and shows the poet's magnificent bearing and lofty and wonderful feelings. The first sentence describes the moonlight of the lake, the second sentence describes the calm of the lake when there is no wind, and the third and fourth sentences focus on Junshan in the lake.
The whole poem chooses the perspective of moonlit night to have a panoramic view of a thousand miles of Dongting, grasps the most representative lakes and mountains, writes gently, and creatively reproduces the beautiful scenery of Dongting on paper through rich imagination and clever metaphor, showing amazing artistic skills.
Looking at Dongting Lake was written by Liu Yuxi when he went to Hezhou as a secretariat and passed through Dongting Lake in the autumn of the fourth year of Changqing in Tang Muzong (824). Liu Yuxi said in the preface to Liyang Seventy Rhymes: "In August of the fourth year of Changqing, the secretariat of Kuizhou was changed to Liyang (Hezhou), floating on the Minjiang River, watching Dongting, crossing the gorge and heading east to Xunyang." In 20 years, Liu Yuxi was exiled to the south and went to Dongting. According to the literature, there are about six times. Among them, only the state is transferred, this time, in autumn. And this poem is a vivid record of this trip.
This poem describes the beautiful scenery of Dongting Lake in the moonlight on an autumn night. Microwave is quiet, calm, beautiful and particularly pleasant. The poet's imagination flies, vividly depicts the hazy beauty of Dongting Lake in a fresh style, and draws a beautiful landscape map of Dongting Lake, showing the poet's love for nature, magnificent bearing and lofty and wonderful feelings.
The first sentence describes the clear lake and the green light of the plain moon, just like the meeting in Qiongtian, which is an ethereal, ethereal, quiet and harmonious realm. It shows a harmonious picture of Tianshui and jade characters without dust. The word "harmony" has been refined, showing a harmonious picture of water and sky, jade and dust-free, and it seems to convey the rhythm of a water town night-the rhythm of moonlight and lake water.
The second sentence describes that there is no wind on the lake, and the lake covered with mist is like an unpolished bronze mirror. The word "the mirror is not polished" vividly and aptly shows the calm, peaceful and gentle scene of a thousand miles of Dongting, which has a hazy beauty in the moonlight. Because only "there is no wind on the pool surface", the water waves are calm, and the lake and the moon can be coordinated. Otherwise, the lake is noisy and the waves are empty, and the lake light and autumn moon are not interesting, so there will be no "two-phase harmony".
The third and fourth sentences focus the poet's attention on Junshan from the overall picture of the vast lake and moonlight. In Yin Hui under the bright moon, Dongting Mountain is greener, Dongting water is clearer and the mountains and rivers are integrated. It looks like a small green snail in a carved silver plate, which is very attractive. The autumn moon Dongting described by the poet has become a fine treasure of arts and crafts, giving people great artistic enjoyment. "Green snail in a silver plate" is really an incredible punch line.
The advantage of this sentence is not only reflected in the accurate warning of metaphor, but also in the poet's magnanimity and lofty feelings. In the poet's eyes, a thousand miles of Dongting is just a mirror and a cup and plate on the case. It is very rare to lift weights lightly, the pool is natural and unpretentious.
It is a reflection of the poet's character, sentiment and aesthetic taste to express the relationship between man and nature so cordially and to describe the lakes, mountains and mountains so broadly and clearly. Boldness without thought, full of romance.
