Broken chapters were written by modern poet Bian.
Original text:
You stand on the bridge and watch the scenery.
The landscape observer is watching you upstairs.
The bright moon decorated your window,
You decorated other people's dreams.
The extended information poets' epiphany about "scenery" involves the philosophical proposition of "relativity", but compared with the people upstairs, "you" on the bridge is the scenery in their eyes, and they "look at you upstairs"; "The bright moon decorated your window", but compared with those who dreamed of "you", "you" decorated their dreams like the bright moon outside the window.
The poet combines the philosophy of life with poetic images, showing his exploration of the universe and life; In technique and form, the poet combined traditional artistic conception with western symbolism, and formed his own modern poetic style.
Broken Chapter is a short poem with rich and obscure meanings in the history of modern literature in China. The poet injected strong philosophical thinking into his poems. The title of "Writing a Chapter" seems ordinary, but in fact it is a pun. One is a fragment extracted from a complete long poem, and the other is the lost and unspeakable emotion in human heart, and this unique feeling in the heart can often touch the softest place in human heart.
People often say that "a good poem is worth reading a hundred times", and these four short "broken chapters" are enough to read for a lifetime. The reason why this poem has enduring artistic charm and still gives people a strong sense of beauty is that the poet avoids abstract explanations and creates a symbolic and beautiful picture. The natural beauty of the picture and the profound philosophy have reached a harmonious unity like a harmonious blend of water and milk.
In the meaningful picture, the poet conveys the philosophy of life obtained by his intellectual thinking, that is, the poetic experience beyond the poet's feelings: in the universe and even the whole life process, everything is relative and interrelated; In the combination of feelings, a moment can last forever; In the field of metaphysics, as the poet Blake said, "A grain of sand is a world".
In the field of life and morality, life and death, happiness and sadness, good and evil, beauty and ugliness are not absolutely isolated, but relative and interrelated. When people have an insight into this truth, they will not be bound by some secular ideas, and they will not haggle over whether it is necessary. They should gain freedom and transcendence through a thorough understanding of life and the world.
Creation background: It was written out of context in 1935 10. According to the author, these four lines were originally in a long poem, but only these four lines were used to his satisfaction, so they were taken out to form an independent chapter, from which the title came.
The author once said: "This is a lyric poem, which is to write a moment's artistic conception with transcendental feelings. I like to think that people and things in the world are closely related, interdependent and interactive. People ('you') can see the scenery or decorate it intentionally or unintentionally.
People ('you') can see the bright moon decorating their windows, or they may become decorations in others' dreams consciously or unconsciously. He said, "I mean, focus on the relative." It can be seen that the poet mainly wanted to show a kind of kinship, so he created this poem.
