Original text:
Night berth near Fengqiao
Author: Zhang Ji
Crows fell on the moon, crowed coldly, slept on maple trees, and slept in fishing lanes by the river.
In the lonely Hanshan Temple outside Suzhou, the bell that rang in the middle of the night reached the passenger ship.
Creative background:
According to Volume III of Biography of Talented Scholars in the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Ji was promoted by Yang Jun, assistant minister of does, in the 12th year of Tianbao (753), that is to say, he was admitted to the rank of scholar. In January of the 14th year of Tianbao, the Anshi Rebellion broke out, and in June of the 15th year of Tianbao, Xuanzong rushed to Shu. Because the political situation in Jiangnan was relatively stable at that time, many scribes fled to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to avoid chaos, including Zhang Ji. One autumn night, the poet anchored at Fengqiao outside Suzhou. The beautiful scenery of autumn night in Jiangnan water town attracted this traveler with travel worries, which made him appreciate a poetic beauty with meaningful feelings and wrote this poem with clear artistic conception.
Appreciate:
The first two sentences describe six kinds of scenes, namely "the moon sets", "crows", "first frost is full of sky", "river maple", "fishing fire" and the guests on board who stayed up all night. The last two sentences only describe the scene of Meng Xun ringing the bell and boarding the boat at Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City. The first two sentences were seen by the poet, and the last two sentences were heard by the poet. In the silent night, I suddenly heard the distant bell. How did the poet feel when he stayed up all night? Facing the Jiang Feng fishing fire wandering in the frosty night, I felt a faint sadness. This poem "Midnight Bell" not only sets off the quietness of the night, but also reveals the depth of the night. Needless to say, the poet feels all kinds of unspeakable feelings when lying down and listening to the bell.
It is difficult to see things at night without a moon, fishing and fire are eye-catching, frost and snow are cold; Midnight is a silent moment, but I hear crows and bells. This contrast between light and shade, silence and sound, makes the scenery all in love, the sound all in sound, the artistic conception scattered and scattered, muddy and far away. A faint ray of guest sorrow is blurred and meaningful, swaying in the night sky of Gusu City, adding eternal amorous feelings to the bridges, water, temples and cities there and attracting dream seekers from ancient times to the present.
The whole poem uses flashback, first writing the scene at dawn, and then recalling the scenery last night and the midnight bell. The whole poem is full of colors, feelings and scenes. ?
