Nanjing, Jinling, an ancient capital city that combines romance, heaviness, beauty and pain. It does not have the majestic Forbidden City in Beijing, nor the quaint and long-standing ancient city of Chang'an. However, compared with other ancient capitals, it seems so deep, desolate and tragic.
In addition to its own landform and architectural characteristics, the beauty of such cultural connotations is inseparable from the poems written by literati in the past dynasties for Jinling.
There are many nostalgic works in the history of Chinese poetry, and among all the nostalgic poems, Jinling Nostalgic Poems ranks first in terms of quality and quantity.
? It all started with the poet Li Bai who lived his whole life with moonlight and fine wine thousands of years ago.
? Jinling should be a destination for Li Bai. He was born at the head of the Yangtze River and lived at the end of the Yangtze River in his later years. He went to Jiangling seven times in his life, especially when he was lost in his later years, he mostly lived here.
? "The phoenix travels on the Phoenix platform, the phoenix leaves the platform, the Kongjiang River flows by itself, the flowers and plants of the Wu Palace are buried in the quiet path, and the Jin Dynasty clothes become ancient hills. The three mountains are half-cast outside the blue sky, and the parrot island is divided into two points. In summary Because the floating clouds can block the sun, the absence of Chang'an makes people sad." When he wrote this poem "Ascend the Phoenix Tower of Jinling", Li Taibai was no longer holding a sword. Traveling around the world, "Li Xiaobai" was a young, arrogant and arrogant scholar.
At this time, he experienced the ups and downs of fate and saw the desolation and ugliness of reality. Although he did not change his true character, his unrestrained and unrestrained heart My heart has been sublimated into an innocent heart full of sorrow and vicissitudes of life.
It was the end of Jinling's prosperity, and the departure of the phoenix into the sky touched Li Bai. It was also Li Bai's quiet path of flowers and grass, and the vicissitudes of Jinling's clothes and ancient hills.
It is precisely because of Li Bai's pioneering work that Jinling's nostalgic poetry has become a unique literary phenomenon in the history of later literature. As a result, the city of Jinling has been endowed with a unique philosophical connotation. "Weeds and flowers beside the Suzaku Bridge, the setting sun is setting at the entrance of Wuyi Alley. In the old days, the swallows in front of Wang Xietang flew into the homes of ordinary people."
Liu Yuxi's "Wuyi Alley" is also a famous piece of nostalgic poetry. The poem does not describe the changes in Jinling's world from a large perspective, but focuses on the small details, using a swallow to reflect the desolation of the once-prominent Wuyi Lane, which is now only weeds and the setting sun.
This is not only the loneliness of Wuyi Lane, but also the infinite desolation left after the prosperity of the entire Jinling City at that time fell.
All the dream-like achievements have completely disappeared under the ruthless wheel of history.
You see, the dream of the reunification of Soochow in the Three Kingdoms has not yet awakened, and Sima's cavalry has already traveled through the gates of Wu Palace;
The young swallows in front of Wang Xietang have not yet matured, and Beifu Liu Yu's troops have captured Jinling;
The construction of the 480 temples in the Southern Dynasties has not yet been completed, and Hou Jing's rebellion has been put down by Lord Chen;
? "Flowers in the Back Garden" The opera has not yet been fully sung, but the Grand Canal of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty has been opened...
? The long and short history of the rise and fall of the Six Dynasties reflected in "Woyi Lane" gives Jinling an endless sense of historical weight. .
?
"Thinking about the past, competing for prosperity. Sighing at the building outside the door, sorrow and hatred continue. Through the ages, I have been proud of my height, and I have lamented the honor and disgrace. The old things of the Six Dynasties flow with the flow, but The cold smoke and fragrant grass are green. To this day, businesswomen still sing the songs left in the backyard."
Wang Anshi's "Guizhixiang·Jinling Nostalgia" is a masterpiece of nostalgia.
? After experiencing the ups and downs of the officialdom and experiencing all the honors and disgrace, Wang Anshi faced Jinling and realized that the past events of the Six Dynasties were gone like water, and the prosperity of the world was fleeting.
? However, the current government has never learned from history, and still performs a tragedy of chaos and chaos.
? In the eyes of Wang Anshi, Jinling has become a transcendent benevolent man who has experienced all the prosperity and desolation in the world, and has experienced all the vicissitudes of honor and disgrace in the world of desire. In the hustle and bustle of the world of mortals, he is still and peaceful. Indisputable.
Jinling, Nanjing, because of one person and one poem, has become an eternal ancient city with intertwined rise and fall, prosperity and loneliness, honor and shame.
