Reading and Appreciation of the Poems of "Tanzhou"
This poem is an allegorical poem, written on the way back from Guilin north in May of the second year of Dazhong.
This poem uses allusions to make the words beautiful, the tone harmonious, the contrasts neat, and the structure rigorous, which increases the beauty of the appearance and the rich connotation. For example, the word "Xiang Tears" in the poem refers to a story in Yiji: "Emperor Shun visited the south and died in Cangwu. Emperor Shun's concubine E and Nvying cried sadly, and their tears stained the bamboo, and the bamboo was stained." The term "Chu Ge" refers to the story of Qu Yuan's "Li Sao" and "Nine Songs" poems in which he criticized Ling Yin Zilan. Tao Gong's sentence refers to Tao Kan's outstanding military exploits in those days to satirize today's abandonment of talents. Jia Fu's sentence borrows the scene of cobwebs, dust, and wind and rain in Jia Yi's temple, and embodies the feeling of talents being buried. It is also suitable for the place of Tanzhou. The scene in the classic is integrated with the poet's scene at that time, and the feeling is condensed and alert. Reading it makes people feel infinite emotions.
