Su Shi
On the twentieth night of my first month in Mao Yi, I remembered my dream.
Ten years of life and death are two boundless, disapproving and unforgettable.
A lonely grave thousands of miles away, desolate and nowhere to talk about.
Even if we don't know each other, our faces are dusty and our temples are frosty.
When night came, my dream suddenly came home. Xiao Xuan window, get dressed.
Care for each other without words, only a thousand lines of tears
It is expected that the annual heartbroken place: moonlit night, short pine hill.
This is a eulogy. The author vividly reflects his sincere feelings and deep nostalgia for his dead wife by combining his unfortunate experience and infinite feelings in his political career in the past ten years.
When writing this word, the author knows that in Mizhou (now Zhucheng, Shandong Province), his wife Wang Fu died in Kaifeng, Song Yingzong for two years (1065). By this time (Xining eight years), it has been ten years. The preface before the word clearly points out that the theme of this article is "recalling dreams". However, the dream scene only appears briefly in the next paragraph of the word and does not occupy a dominant position in the whole article. The reason why the author can enter the hometown of "quiet dreams" is that he can "remember dreams" in words. It is the inevitable result of the author's yearning for his dead wife and long-term unforgettable experience. So the opening emphasized the "ten"
The tragic reality of life and death. What is written here is the personal sad life experience in the long years. Student refers to the author; Death means a dead wife. This shows that the living and the dead have missed each other for a long time, but the news is blocked and the voice is slim. The reason why the author mentioned life and death side by side is not only to clarify the role of the topic, but also to emphasize the sadness of the living, so the words "if you don't think about it, you will never forget" appeared immediately. "Don't think about it" is actually to retreat for progress, just to show the depth of the feeling that the living are "unforgettable". "Thousands?
Lonely grave, nowhere to talk about the desolate "two words, immediately added this point. Explain the actual content of "unforgettable". After the death of Wang, he was buried in Meishan, Su Shi's hometown. Naturally, there will be a saying of "a lonely grave of thousands of miles". As a result, it is difficult for the author to even get a chance to pay homage at the grave. The dead are "desolate" and the living are heartbroken. "Ten years is a long time, thousands.
"Li" is a vast space. In this long and vast space of time, there is an insurmountable boundary between life and death. How does the author not multiply the sigh of "nowhere to talk"? It is difficult to cross the boundaries of time, space and life and death, so we have to beg for a dream meeting. The above four sentences paved the way for "remembering dreams". At the end of the last film, three sentences suddenly changed the subject, making progress and retreating, imagining the unexpected consequences of not knowing each other even if they met. The contents of these three sentences are very many, including the author's ups and downs in his career in the past ten years, the long-term mental torture of his dead wife, and the physical aging in the past ten years. Hypothesis; Even if the boundaries between time, space and life and death are broken, the living and the dead can still meet.
But I'm afraid it's hard to get to know each other when we meet. Because ten years later, the author is "travel-stained, as cold as ice" and looks like an old man. These three sentences reflect the author's misfortune and great changes in the world in the past ten years (including his three-year life in Beijing after opposing the new law) from the reflection on the imaginary dead.
The next movie is about the sudden appearance of dreams: "When night falls, dreams suddenly come home". As far as the word is concerned. This article is really Apollo's true feelings. Every sentence is painful, but this sentence contains joy in sadness. Xiao Xuan Window Dressing supplements the above sentence with vivid images, thus making the dream more real. The author seems to be beside the newly-married king, watching her bathing in the morning light and dressing up in front of the mirror, and her heart is full of sweetness and tenderness. However, the word pen changed from happy to sad later. "There is nothing to say to each other, only a thousand tears." These two sentences should be "a journey of a thousand miles"
The word "lonely grave" can now "go home", which should be the time to enjoy "bleak words" However, I don't know where to start with a thousand words in my heart, so I had to "help each other" and burst into tears. These five sentences are the theme of this word: "Remember the dream". It is precisely because dreams are illusory and the artistic conception of the word is somewhat dreamy, so it is impossible and unnecessary for the author to describe it incisively and vividly.
State. Only in this way can we leave room for readers' imagination. The last three sentences are a sigh after the dream and a comfort to the deceased. If we associate the first ten years with the uncertain "year after year", isn't the author's memory of his dead wife "and this endless sadness continues"? This article has a noteworthy feature in art, which is straightforward and sincere. Because the author has a deep affection for his dead wife, even ten years after the death of the other party, the author still fantasizes about meeting in his dream. And through the dream (or the part related to the dream), express your true feelings heartily, without taboo or concealment. "No.
Think about it. You'll never forget it. Nowhere to say, there are only a thousand lines of tears in my eyes, all of which show that direct confession and spitting are the natural characteristics. Another feature is rich imagination and ingenious conception. The author gallops imagination from a long time and a vast space, and integrates the past, the present, the dream and the future into a unified artistic whole, closely focusing on "thinking" and "unforgettable"
Text description. The whole word is clear, but it is full of twists and turns. In the first film, there are eight sentences about the memory and emotional ups and downs before writing the dream, the first five sentences are about the sadness and joy in the dream, and the last three sentences are about the sigh after writing the dream. The plot has ups and downs; With a pen, there are advances and retreats, feelings, sorrows and joys; Do all the twists and turns. Another feature is frank language and pure line drawing. Because this is a poem that expresses true feelings, the language is also extremely simple and natural, with true feelings. If you understand, there is no trace of carving. This simple language and the staggered use of different sentence patterns (three, four, five, seven words) make this word handsome and sharp, which just shows the author's thoughts and feelings. It has an inherent sense of rhythm and gripping artistic charm that is difficult to produce in ancient poetry and rhythmic poetry.
In the Tang, Five Dynasties and Northern Song Dynasties, most of the words describing women were narrow and dusty. Su Shi's words are open-minded, his feelings are pure, and his character is noble, which makes people feel refreshed. It is Su Shi's initiative to mourn with words. This article should occupy a certain position in expanding the theme of words and enriching the expressive force of words.
This article can be compared with Pan Yue's mourning poem, Yuan Zhen's Mourning for the Past and Wu Wenying's Preface to Birds Singing in Southern Song Dynasty.
