What does it mean to read ancient poems?

The significance of reading is: it is what you think and feel after reading.

Random thoughts on reading is a group of poems by Zhu, a scholar in Song Dynasty. It is to describe his feelings of "reading" and reveal profound philosophy with vivid images.

The phenomenon of injecting fresh water into ponds shows that we must constantly accept new things in order to keep our thoughts active and progressive. With the help of the giant ship, no one can push it, but it can sail freely in the water, which means that artistic creation needs inspiration. The whole poem contains philosophy with vivid metaphors and is full of rational interest, which has been told all the time.

Original text:

Half an acre of square pond opened, and the sky was overcast.

Why is the water in the pond so clear? Because there is inexhaustible living water for it.

Interpretation of vernacular:

Half an acre of square pond is displayed like a mirror, in which the brilliance of the sky and the shadow of floating clouds move together.

Why is the water in that square pond so clear? It is because there is an inexhaustible source to continuously transport living water for it.

Introduction to the article:

Judging from the title, these two poems are about the experience of "reading", which is intended to be well-founded and argumentative. If it is not good, it is likely to be written as "the rhyme of quotations and handouts", but the author writes poetry because he captures the image from nature and social life and lets the image speak for itself.

The truth contained in it belongs to the category of aesthetic principles. The angle of reasoning is to appreciate beauty, and the angle of reasoning is to create beauty. This aesthetic principle is universal to some extent. For example, if the reader abandons the description object of the poem itself, this truth can be extended completely. For example, if "book" is understood as "book".

The contents of books generally do not include medical books, philosophy books, history books, science and technology books, etc. , but only embodies the beauty of literature and art in terms of literary content, such as poetry, music, prose and so on. Then, it can also be considered that the source of living water expresses "inexhaustible literary thinking", while the one-night spring tide expresses "erupting literary thinking" and so on.
