Yao Nai advocated that articles must use "textual research" and "words and chapters" as means to express the "righteousness" of Confucianism, and distinguish the style of articles by masculinity and femininity. He also developed Liu Dakui's idea of ??imitating antiquity, advocating starting from simulating the "metrical sound and color" of ancient prose, and then simulating its "spiritual flavor". Most of the works are related to book prefaces and stele biographies, and are generally based on Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism. His prose is concise, gentle, fresh, literary and vivid.
Close to the topic and have a rigorous structure. The author sticks closely to the "goal" of "climbing" from beginning to end. This article begins to introduce the landscape situation of Mount Tai, paving the way for the word "climbing", and ends with a few crosses. As prose, "the form is scattered but the spirit is not scattered" is its unique characteristic. However, when we use this standard to measure this article, we find that the “form and dispersion” of this article is limited, and it is nothing more than a relatively free choice of materials. However, the materials used in this article do not leave Mount Tai, and they do not leave the "climbing" mountain, so the dispersion of materials is limited.
The language is concise and the words are vivid. The full text of this article is only eight to nine hundred words, but it fully expresses the special interest of mountaineering after snow. For example, from the capital to Tai'an, just "ride the wind and snow from the capital, travel through Qihe and Changqing, pass through the northwest valley of Mount Tai, cross the limit of the Great Wall, and reach Tai'an". Several verbs are used very well - "ride the wind and snow" The word "Cheng" in the figure exaggerates the mid-winter scene of the wind and snow and the huge power of the wind and snow from the movement of the person who cannot help but follow the wind and snow. The verbs "from", "li", "chuan", "yue", and "to" are repeated one after another, which not only fits the description object, but also fully expresses the hardship of the journey, vividly depicting the author's dusty demeanor and writing Showing his strong interest in climbing Mount Tai, every word and picture is meticulous and meticulous, and he also takes care of the first section of the ancient Great Wall. Another example is when writing about mountain climbing, using "the road is foggy and slippery, and the steps are almost impossible to climb", which is not only concise, but also vivid and vivid. The last paragraph introduces the natural landscape of Mount Tai that best embodies this feature. Seven sentences describe seven scenes, describing its rocky, pine, and snow-covered scenery.
The rhetoric is clever and the technique is appropriate. This article uses metaphors and personification in many places, each with its own characteristics. For example, "Cangshan Mountain is covered with snow, and the sky is bright and bright." This is the feeling when you first climb to the top of the mountain. The author does not say that the green mountains are covered with ice and snow, but says that the green mountains are burdened with snow, giving the static green mountains a human dynamic, and the language is novel and expressive. Furthermore, the snow on Cangshan Mountain illuminates Tiannan like a candle, vividly depicting the brilliance of the snow. Another example is "Looking at the city wall in the evening when the sun shines on it, the Wenshui River and Culai River are picturesque, while the mist in the middle of the mountain seems to be like this." This is the picture obtained from looking down and looking down from the top of the mountain. The author looks far away, the sunset shines on Tai'an City, Wenshui and Cuulai are like natural landscape paintings, and the clouds and mist lingering on the mountainside are like ribbons. "Dwelling in the fog in the middle of the mountain" not only depicts dynamic objects as static, but also creates novel metaphors. Another example is "Looking back at the peak to the west of the sun, you may get the sun, or not, the colors are bright and purple, but they are all hunchbacked." The peaks that "may get the sun, or not" have different colors, but the look is the same. , the so-called "all hunchbacked". This metaphor describes the characteristics of the peaks in the southwest, and also shows the majesty of Riguan Peak, and gives the peaks human emotions, images and vividness.
Most of the descriptions of scenery in this article are direct descriptions, but there are also side effects. For example, when writing about the height of Mount Tai, first use "its level is more than 7,000" to highlight it secretly, and then use the pictures of "fog halfway up the mountain" seen from the top of the mountain and "clouds everywhere under your feet" when looking at the sun pavilion to highlight it from the side. Another example is writing about snow. In addition to positive descriptions such as "ice and snow" and "snow as high as a person's knees", it also uses "bright candles in the south", "white as white", "red and bright mottled color" as side contrasts to give people imagination, and Lively and interesting.
