Appreciation]
The first two sentences point out the location of "Viewing the Sea": the poet climbed to the top of the Jieshi Mountain, facing the sea from a high position, with a broad field of vision, and a panoramic view of the magnificent sea. The following ten descriptions are roughly expanded from this.
"The water is sluggish, but the mountains and islands are standing tall" is the general impression I get when looking at the sea, a bit like the thick lines of a painting. In this "roaming" sea, the first thing that catches the eye is the abrupt and towering mountain islands. They are dotted on the flat sea, making the sea look magical and spectacular. These two sentences describe the general outline of the sea view, which will be described in depth below.
"The trees are thick and the grass is luxuriant. The autumn wind is bleak and the flood waves are rising." The first two sentences specifically describe the mountain island of Changzhi: Although the autumn wind is bleak and the grass and trees are falling, the island is lush with trees. , the grass is rich and abundant, giving people a sense of vitality. The last two sentences are a further description of the sentence "How is the water so calm": If you look carefully, you will see that the sea surface in the bleak autumn wind is actually a huge wave, turbulent and ups and downs. Although it is a typical autumn environment here, there is no trace of desolate and sad autumn mood. Facing the bleak autumn wind, the author writes about the vastness and magnificence of the sea: in the bleak autumn wind, the sea is surging and vast, reaching the sky; the mountain islands are towering and straight, with lush vegetation, without any sentimental sentiment. This new realm and new style reflect his "martyr's" mind of "an old man who is still in trouble but aims for a thousand miles".
"The journey of the sun and the moon can be seen from within; the stars are shining brightly from within." The previous description is observed from the level of the sea, and these four sentences are connected with the boundless universe. The momentum and power of the sea are revealed in front of readers as long as possible: the vast sea is connected with the sky, and the sky is blurred; in front of this majestic and magnificent sea, the sun, moon, stars, and the Milky Way are all They seem insignificant, and their movements seem to be freely absorbed by the sea. The sea described by the poet here is not only the real scene in front of him, but also integrated with his own imagination and exaggeration, showing a majestic atmosphere that swallows the universe, and has the potential of "five mountains rise within a square inch". This kind of "covering the atmosphere" is the artistic realm formed by the blending of the scenery in the poet's eyes and the emotions in his heart. Speaking from the heart, if the poet does not have grand political ambitions, no ambition to make achievements, and no optimism about the future, he will never be able to write such a magnificent poem. In the past, some people said that Cao Cao's poems were "always domineering" (Shen De's subtext), referring to works such as "Guan Cang Hai".
"Fortunately, I sing to express my ambition." This is a cliché used when joining music. It has nothing to do with the content of the poem, so there is no need to elaborate.
[Features]
In the poem "Viewing the Sea", literally speaking, the sea water, mountains and islands, vegetation, autumn wind, and even the sun, moon and stars are all objects in sight, so pure In the history of Chinese literature, Cao Cao seemed to have never written poems about natural scenery before. It not only describes the scenery throughout the text, but also has a unique style. It can be called the earliest masterpiece of Chinese landscape poetry and is especially loved by literary historians. This poem describes the sea in autumn, which can wash away the sentimental sentiment of autumn. It is written in a majestic, vigorous and magnificent manner, which is closely related to Cao Cao's magnanimity, character and even aesthetic taste.
In this poem, scenery and emotion are closely combined. By writing about Canghai, the author expresses his ambition to unify China and make achievements. However, this kind of emotion is not directly expressed in the poem, but is contained in the description of the scenery, embodying the emotion in the scenery, describing the scenery in every sentence, and expressing emotions in every sentence. Although the six sentences "Where is the water" describe the vibrant sea scenery, they actually praise the magnificent mountains and rivers of the motherland, revealing the author's love for the motherland. Witnessing the magnificent scenery of the mountains and rivers of the motherland further aroused the poet's strong desire to unify the motherland. So we use rich imagination to fully express this desire. The author compares himself with the vast sea, and expresses the poet's broad mind and heroic spirit by writing about the momentum of the sea swallowing up the universe. His emotions are unrestrained but very reserved. The four sentences "Sun and Moon" are the climax of the description of the scene and the climax of the author's emotional development. Ao Taosun, a native of the Song Dynasty, said that Cao's poems are "like the veteran general of Youyan, with a majestic and majestic charm". The poem "Viewing the Sea" has a broad artistic conception and powerful momentum, which is consistent with the demeanor of an ambitious politician and military strategist. It really makes people read the poem as if they were seeing the person.
In the twelfth year of Jian'an (207), Cao Cao led an army to conquer Wuhuan, which was a serious problem in the northeast at that time. This was an important war in Cao Cao's great cause of unifying the north. During the expedition, he wrote the Yuefu song "Stepping out of Xiamen" (belonging to "Xianghe Ge·Se Diaoqu"). This group of poems consists of five parts. The beginning is the word "Yan", which is a preface poem. The following poems are named after poems, in order: "Guan Cang Hai", "Winter October", "He Shuo Han" (also known as "Tu"). "Different"), "The Turtle Lives Longevity". In terms of musical melody, the five parts are a whole, but in terms of lyric content, the four parts can be independent chapters.
"Viewing the Canghai" was written by Cao Cao when he climbed Jieshi Mountain on his way to the victory of Wuhuan's northern expedition in September of this year. This four-character poem depicts the majesty of the motherland's rivers and mountains based on the natural scenery the poet saw when climbing a mountain and looking at the sea. It not only depicts the moving image of the mountains and the sea, but also expresses the poet's heroic and optimistic enterprising spirit. It is the best description of natural scenery in the Jian'an era. The famous poem is also one of the earliest famous works in my country's classical landscape poetry. The first two sentences, "Landing Jieshi in the east to view the sea," describe the poet who came to the foot of Jieshi Mountain and climbed up to view the sea on the occasion of the Northern Expedition.
Jieshi Mountain was originally located in the southwest of today's Laoting County, Hebei Province (some say it is in the northwest of today's Changli County, Hebei Province). It was still on land during the Han Dynasty, facing the Bohai Sea. During the Six Dynasties, it sank into the sea due to geological changes. The poet climbed up Jieshi Mountain and looked down at the sea. All he saw was: "The water is so sluggish, but the mountains and islands stand tall." Dandan, the water is turbulent. Changzhi, the island looks towering. The poet climbed up and looked into the distance. As far as he could see, he saw the endless waves of the sea and the islands in the sea standing high. What a vast and spectacular sight it is! In history, Emperor Qin Shihuang and Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty both visited here on their eastward tours, carving rocks and observing the sea. Now the poet is standing in the place where Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han visited, looking down at the vast sea connected by water and sky and the towering islands in the sea, thinking that the Central Plains has been pacified, the Northern Expedition to Wuhuan has also achieved a decisive victory, and the unification of the north is imminent. How exciting it must be to realize it! At this time, the poet's eyes were fixed on the islands on the sea, and in front of him was a scene full of vitality: "There are trees and luxuriant grass. The autumn wind is bleak and the waves are rising." The trees and grass are growing very luxuriantly, and a bleak autumn wind blows, and the sea surface Rolling waves surged up. Although the bleak autumn wind gives people a sense of sadness and desolation, the strong wind and strong grass show his heroic nature; the turbulent waves make him more and more alive! This is a true depiction of the natural environment and a concrete portrayal of the poet's subjective feelings. After Cao Cao won a series of war victories, he felt that his ambition and great cause were as vibrant as the trees and flowers, and also filled with the vitality of life for the surging sea. Next, the poet unfolds his rich imagination and further describes the majestic spirit and broad mind of the sea swallowing up the sun and the moon, and containing the stars. "The movement of the sun and the moon seems to come out of it; the brilliance of the stars seems to come out of it." The movement of the sun and the moon seems to appear in and out of the embrace of the sea, and the brilliant stars of the Milky Way seem to be contained in the mother's womb of the sea. Please see, this is the spirit and the mind of the sea. It's so spectacular and majestic.
The poem "Viewing the Sea" describes the scenery in its entirety. There are no words of emotion that directly express one's feelings. However, reading the whole poem can still make people feel the poet's feelings that it deeply entrusts. Through the poet's vivid description of the turbulent sea that holds the sun and the moon, we seem to see Cao Cao's great ambition and broad-mindedness in forging ahead and determined to unify the country. We can touch Cao Cao as a poet, politician, and military strategist. The flow of thoughts and feelings in a typical environment. The whole poem has simple language, rich imagination, majestic momentum, desolation and solemnity, which has been appreciated by readers of all ages. Shen Deqian commented in "The Source of Ancient Poetry" that this poem "has the atmosphere of swallowing up the universe". This is very precise.
Cao Cao (155-220): Emperor Wu of Wei. A statesman, military strategist and poet during the Three Kingdoms period. His courtesy name was Mengde, his nickname was Amo, and he was a native of Qiao County, Peiguo (now Bozhou City, Anhui Province).
For the first time, he was promoted to Xiaolian, appointed as the Northern Wei of Luoyang, and moved to Dunqiu. Later, in the war to suppress the Yellow Turban Uprising and conquer Dongzhuo, he gradually expanded his military power. In the third year of Chuping (AD 192), he served as the herdsman of Gunzhou, divided and induced part of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army to surrender, and organized it into the "Qingzhou Soldiers". In the first year of Jian'an (196), the imperial capital Xu (now Xuchang, Henan) was welcomed. From then on, he used his name to issue orders, and successively defeated Lu Bu and other separatist forces. After the Battle of Guandu defeated the Hebei separatist force Yuan Shao, he gradually unified northern China. In the thirteenth year of Jian'an, he became prime minister and led his army southward, but was defeated by the coalition forces of Sun Quan and Liu Bei in Chibi. Conferred the title of King of Wei. His son Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor and pursued the title of Emperor Wu.
He farmed in the north and built water conservancy projects, which solved the problem of shortage of military rations and played a certain role in the recovery of agricultural production. He employed people based on their talents, recruited people from the middle and lower classes of the landlord class, restrained tyranny, and strengthened centralization of power. The social and economic development of the areas under their control has been restored and developed. He is an expert in the art of war and has written books such as "Sun Tzu's Brief Explanation" and "The Art of War". He is good at poetry, such as "A Walk in the Grass" and "Viewing the Sea", which express his political ambitions and reflect the suffering life of the people in the late Han Dynasty. They are majestic, generous and desolate. The prose is also clear and neat. His works include "Collection of Emperor Wu of Wei", which has been lost and has been compiled by Ming Dynasty people. Now there is a compiled and typeset version of "Collection of Cao Cao". ("Cihai" 1989 edition).
Taizu had been in the army for more than thirty years, and he never let go of his books. The book talks about military strategies, and the night is spent thinking about the classics. When you climb high, you must write poems and compose new poems, which will be orchestrated and turned into music. ("Book of Wei")
Shangya loves poetry, books and literature, and even though he is in the army, he can't let go of the scrolls. Every time I study, I calmly say: If a person is young and loves to learn, he will be specialized in thinking, and if he grows up, he will be good at forgetting. When he grows up, he can be a diligent scholar, only I and Yuan Boye are familiar with each other. ("Dian Lun·Autobiography", Yuan Boye's famous legacy, Yuan Shaocong's brother.)
Cao Gong is an upright man with very sad words. (Zhong Rong's "Poetry")
Go east and climb Jieshi Mountain to watch the sea.
Translation The sea is so wide and mighty, and Jieshi Mountain stands high on the seaside.
There are many trees on Jieshi Mountain and all kinds of grass grow luxuriantly.
The autumn wind is blowing, and huge waves are rising on the sea.
The movements of the sun and the moon seem to start from this vast ocean.
The stars of the Milky Way are brilliant, as if they were produced from this vast ocean.
I am so lucky to express my thoughts and feelings through singing.
1. The writing background of "Guan Cang Hai"
"Guan Cang Hai" is Cao Cao's famous poem, which was written when he conquered Wuhuan. In 207 AD, Cao Cao personally led his army to the north to pursue and annihilate the remnants of Yuan Shao. In May, he vowed to launch a northern expedition. In July, he left Lulong Village and approached Jieshi Mountain.
He jumped on his horse and whipped his whip, climbed a mountain to watch the sea, faced the surging sea, and was moved by the scene, and wrote this magnificent poem.
(Excerpted from Dong Desong's "There is Sentiment in the Paintings in Poems", Volume 2 of "Junior Middle School Chinese Text Analysis Collection")
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when warlords were competing for power in the Central Plains, people living in Wuhuan in western Liaoning became stronger and stronger, and they went south to attack cities and plunder territory, becoming a serious border trouble in Hebei. In the tenth year of Jian'an (205), Cao Cao destroyed the foundation of Yuan Shao's rule in Hebei. Yuan Shao vomited blood and died. His sons Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang fled to Wuhuan and colluded with Wuhuan nobles to invade the fortress many times and cause harm. At that time, Cao Cao was in a disadvantageous situation of being squeezed between the north and the south: Liu Biao and Liu Bei were entrenched in Jingxiang in the south, and the Yuan brothers and Wuhuan were in the north. In order to get rid of the passive situation, Cao Cao adopted the advice of counselor Guo Jia and led the northern expedition in the summer of the twelfth year of Jian'an. It lasted from May to the end of May. In autumn and July, there was a flood and the road near the sea was blocked. Later, he accepted Tian Chou's suggestion and resolutely changed the route. Passing Xu Wushan, exiting Lulong Fortress and heading straight towards Liucheng, they won the battle. In September, he returned to the army victoriously and passed through Jieshi and other places. He borrowed the old title of Yuefu's "Stepping out of Xiamen Xing" and wrote this famous poem. The poem describes the local customs and scenery in the Heshuo area, expresses personal ambitions, and reflects the poet's ambitious and dominating heroic spirit.
Regarding Cao Cao's eastward visit to Jieshi, in the past it was mostly thought that it happened when he was marching north to Wuhuan. In fact, this view is inconsistent with historical facts and is unbelievable. We used the records in "Three Kingdoms", "Wudi Ji" and "Tian Chou Biography" to verify that Cao Cao boarded Jieshi on his way back from the northern expedition to Wuhuan. Because there was a flood when he went there, the road near the sea was blocked, so he had to change his route. Take the Xu Wushan path to Liaoxi. "In the ninth month, Gongyin returned from Liucheng, and on the eleventh day he arrived at Yishui." He should have "visited the Jieshi" and "viewed the sea" in September or early October of this year (207). As for where Jieshi Mountain is located today, there is still controversy in academic circles. Some people think that the mountain has sunk into the sea in Laoting County, Hebei Province today, or it is Jieshi Mountain in the north of Changli County, Hebei Province today. In any case, when Cao Cao climbed up, it should be a higher rocky mountain near the sea. "To the east is Jieshi to view the sea. Where is the water, the mountains and islands are standing there", the first two sentences point out the location of "viewing the sea": the poet climbed to the top of Jieshi, facing the sea from a high position, with a broad field of vision, and the magnificent scene of the sea. fundus. The following ten sentences of description are roughly expanded from this. "Where the water is buoyant, the mountains and islands are standing tall" is the general impression you get when you first look at the sea, a bit like the thick lines of a painting. "Dandan" describes the vastness of the sea; "he" refers to how beautiful it is. Today's word "how much" is a word of admiration. "Dan Dan" adds sighing beauty, and you can imagine the vast and boundless atmosphere of the sea. In this "roaming" sea, the first thing that catches the eye is the abrupt and towering mountain islands. They are dotted on the flat sea, making the sea look magical and spectacular. These two sentences describe the general outline of the distant view of the sea, which will be described in depth below. "The trees are thick and the grass is luxuriant. The autumn wind is bleak and the flood waves are surging." The first two sentences specifically describe the mountain island of Changzhi: Although the autumn wind is bleak and the grass and trees are falling, the island is luxuriant with trees and luxuriant grass, which brings business to people. A sense of abundance. The last two sentences are a further description of the sentence "How is the water so calm": If you look carefully, you will see that the sea surface in the bleak autumn wind is actually huge waves, turbulent and ups and downs. Although it is a typical autumn environment here, there is no bleak and sad autumn mood at all. In the history of Chinese literature, due to various reasons such as the writer's world view and situation, since Song Yu's "Nine Bian" was the forerunner of sad autumn literature, how many poets and poets have shed tears in the autumn wind and been moved by the scene when they see fallen leaves! However, Cao Cao was able to face the bleak autumn wind and describe the vastness and magnificence of the sea: in the bleak autumn wind, the sea was turbulent and vast, reaching the sky; the mountain islands were towering and straight, with lush vegetation, without any sentimental sentiment. This new realm and new style reflect his "martyr's" mind of "an old man is still in trouble, but he aims for a thousand miles".
"Viewing the Sea" expresses the poet's deep feelings, through which we can see the poet's own mind. Cao Cao climbed Jieshi Mountain this time on his way to the north to conquer Wuhuan. Wuhuan was a serious problem in the northeast at that time. In the 11th year of Jian'an (AD 206), Wuhuan captured Youzhou and captured more than 100,000 Han households. In the same year, Yuan Shao's sons Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi colluded with Tadun, the leader of Wuhuan in western Liaoning, and repeatedly harassed the border, so that Cao Cao had to resolutely go north to conquer Wuhuan in the twelfth year of Jian'an. In a battle in August of this year, Cao Cao finally won a decisive victory. This victory consolidated Cao Cao's rear, so he could move south the next year in order to realize his ambition to unify China. Connecting the events before and after, we can see how important the northern expedition to Wuhuan was to Cao Cao. And "Guan Cang Hai" was written when he passed Jieshi Mountain on the way to the northern expedition to Wuhuan. Before the war, Cao Cao, as the commander-in-chief, climbed the Jieshi that Emperor Qin and Wu of Han had also climbed. When the autumn wind blew, his mood would be as difficult to calm down as the sea. He integrated his high-spirited and energetic spirit into the poem and expressed it through the image of the sea, giving the poem a vigorous and vigorous style and becoming an excellent work.

2. Two sentences about "Landing the Jieshi in the east to view the sea" (Yuan Xingpei)
< p> "Land the Jieshi to the east to view the sea." The title of the opening chapter explains the direction, location and object of observation. Although these two sentences do not directly mention people, we seem to see the heroic posture of Cao Cao when he climbed the mountain and looked at the sea."Jieshi", according to "Hanshu Geography", is located southwest of Licheng (now Leting, Hebei) and sank into the sea during the Six Dynasties. The word "Guan" governs the whole poem and is the clue of the poem. The following is expanded from the word "Guan" to describe what you see while climbing the mountain.
The first two sentences start very smoothly, "I face Jieshi in the east to view the sea", indicating that I climbed Jieshi Mountain and looked down at the sea. The original Jieshi Mountain was in the southwest of Laoting County, Hebei Province, facing the Bohai Sea.
(Excerpted from Yuan Xingpei's "Cao Cao's Poems "Viewing the Sea"", same as above)
3. Six sentences about "How is the water flowing"
"How is the water flowing?" "Dan, the mountain and the island are standing together" is written about looking down at the sea from Jieshi Mountain. "Dandan" refers to the swaying appearance of the sea water; "he" refers to "how" here. "The water is so turbulent" describes the majestic waves of the sea. There are surprises and praises in it. It is the first impression after just climbing to the top of the mountain. "Changzhi" means standing tall. The meaning of these two poems is: The vast sea is covered with vast expanse of blue waves, boundless as far as the eye can see, with only the mountain islands at your feet standing high in the middle of the sea. We all know that when we are watching the sea, standing on the shore, sitting on the bow of a boat, or climbing to the top of a mountain, our feelings are very different. When Cao Cao stood on the mountain at this time, the first thing he saw was naturally the panoramic view of the sea. Therefore, he focused on large areas, focusing on exaggerating the vast and vast momentum of the sea, giving people a firm and stubborn feeling. The majestic mountain island immediately attracted the poet's attention, so he immediately wrote about the scenery on the island: "There are thick trees and luxuriant grass." It is full of a prosperous scene, as if there is infinite interest in it waiting for us to discover. "The autumn wind is bleak, and the torrential waves are rising." With a bleak wind, huge waves suddenly surged, which made people feel that it was too late to marvel! But when we turned our eyes to see the surging torrential waves, the poet But I stopped describing it.
(Excerpted from Yuan Xingpei's "Cao Cao's Poetry "Viewing the Sea"", same as above)
The six lines of "Where is the water" are written on the front of the sea. Among them, there are only two sentences that actually write about the sea. Although there are not many words, the author focuses on capturing the changes in the shape of the sea water and outlines it in large strokes, describing the ever-changing characteristics of the sea. "The water is so turbulent" describes the turbulence of the sea when there is no wind. However, when the sea water encounters strong winds, it will immediately cause an uproar. "The waves are rising" only four words vividly show the magnificent momentum of the sea. The word "yong" is particularly well used. From this description, we not only see the shape of the sea, but also seem to hear the sound of the waves crashing on the shore. Although the author writes about observing the sea, he does not simply write about the sea. If you only write about the boundless and turbulent sea water, no matter how well you write it, it will give people a sense of desolation. Therefore, when the author describes the sea, he also uses mountain island vegetation to add color and contrast. He writes about the sea as full of vitality and prosperity, making people feel that the sea is not only vast and majestic, but also beautiful and colorful. If we try to recite these sentences together, we can appreciate their charm: the vast blue sea, the waves undulating, lapping at the coast, the mountain islands standing tall, the lush vegetation swaying in the bleak autumn wind, this is What a magnificent artistic conception, what a beautiful picture!
(Excerpted from Dong Desong's "Poems and Paintings with Sentiments", ibid.)
4. About "The Journey of the Sun and the Moon" Four Sentence
Facing this charming sea scenery, the author developed rich and unique imagination. "The journey of the sun and the moon can only be seen within it; the brilliant stars can only be seen from it." The sun and moon that are constantly moving, and the Milky Way with brilliant stars are all included in this vast sea. How magnificent is this! These four The first sentence is the climax of the whole poem. The author uses exaggerated expression techniques to create an extremely broad artistic conception, adding a positive romantic color to the poem. Although it is a high degree of exaggeration, the author still firmly grasped the majestic characteristics of the sea when writing it. The exaggeration is reasonable.
(Excerpted from Dong Desong's "There is Sentiment in Paintings in Poems", same as above)
The poet's rich imagination brings us into a more magnificent realm: "The Journey of the Sun and the Moon" , if it comes out of it; if the stars are brilliant, if it comes out of it." These few sixteen words describe the vastness of the sea, and create a majestic picture that swallows the sun and the moon, and contains the stars. The sky connects to the water, the water connects to the sky, the vastness is boundless, it is really spectacular. "Xinghan" is the Milky Way in the sky. The meaning of these four lines of poetry is: The sun and moon rise from the east every day, circle the sky once, and then set to the west, as if they rise from the sea and then fall into the sea. The starry Milky Way slants across the sky, and its far end hangs down to the sea, as if it originates from the sea. The sun, moon and the Milky Way can be regarded as the most brilliant and greatest images in nature, but the poet feels that their movement is still inseparable from the embrace of the sea. The sea is like the mother of the sun, moon and stars. This kind of broad realm is rare in ancient poetry.
(Excerpted from Yuan Xingpei's "Cao Cao's Poetry "Viewing the Sea"", same as above)
5. The characteristics of the combination of scenery and scenery in "Viewing the Sea"
In this poem In the painting, scenery and emotion are closely combined. As mentioned above, the author expresses his ambition to unify China and make achievements by writing about Canghai. This emotion is not directly expressed in the poem, but is contained in the description of the scenery. This lyrical style is different from that of many other ancient landscape poems. Many lyric poems describing scenes in ancient times were written in separate scenes, or the upper part focused on the scenery and the lower part focused on the emotion.
For example, the first sentence of Jing Ke's "Song of Yi Shui" "The wind rustles and the Yi Shui is cold" focuses on Feng Shui; the second sentence "A strong man once gone will never come back" describes the heroic man's desperate feelings. Another example is Du Fu's "Climbing the Yueyang Tower". The first couplet "Wu and Chu lie southeast, the universe floats day and night" focuses on describing the scene, and is very ambitious; while the second couplet "There are no relatives and friends, and there are lonely boats for old and sick people" focuses on describing emotions. "Guan Cang Sea" completely contains emotions in the scenery, embodying emotions in the scenery. The words "Guan Cang Hai" are filled with full passion. Although the six sentences "Where is the water" describe the vibrant sea scenery, they actually praise the magnificent mountains and rivers of the motherland, revealing the author's love for the motherland. Witnessing the magnificent scenery of the mountains and rivers of the motherland further aroused the poet's strong desire to unify the motherland. So we use rich imagination to fully express this desire. The author compares himself with the vast sea, and expresses the poet's broad mind and heroic spirit by writing about the momentum of the sea swallowing up the universe. His emotions are unrestrained but very reserved. The four sentences "Sun and Moon" are the climax of the description of the scene and the climax of the author's emotional development. Ao Taosun, a native of the Song Dynasty, said that Cao's poems are "like the veteran general of Youyan, with a majestic and majestic charm". The poem "Viewing the Sea" has a broad artistic conception and powerful momentum, which is consistent with the demeanor of an ambitious politician and military strategist. It really makes people read the poem as if they were seeing the person.
(Excerpted from Dong Desong's "Poems contain feelings in paintings", same as above)
Cao Cao's poem "Viewing the Sea" accurately and vividly depicts the image of the ocean, simple and full, Rich but not trivial, like a rough charcoal drawing. What is particularly valuable is that this poem not only reflects the image of the ocean, but also gives it character. Each sentence describes the scenery, and each sentence is lyrical. It expresses both the sea and the poet himself. The poet is not satisfied with making a similar imitation of the ocean, but strives to express the deep, turbulent character of the ocean through images. The sea is originally lifeless, but it has character in the poet's writings. Only in this way can the face of the sea be reflected more truly and profoundly.
(Excerpted from Yuan Xingpei's "Cao Cao's Poetry "Viewing the Sea"", same as above)
"Viewing the Sea" expresses emotions through scenery, cleverly integrating the sea scenery in front of him with his own ambitions together. The climax of "Viewing the Sea" is placed at the end of the poem. Its emotions are very unrestrained, but its thoughts are very reserved. It not only achieves the blending of scenes, but also achieves the combination of emotion and reason. Because it is implicit, it is more inspiring, more stimulating to our imagination, and more thought-provoking. In the past, people praised Cao Cao's poems for being deep, full, vigorous and powerful, such as "You Yan, a veteran, has a majestic charm", which can be confirmed from here.
