Introduction to the first volume of the ninth grade of Ai Qing's Selected Poems
First, the basic knowledge
1. The author's situation
Ai Qing (1910-1996) is a modern poet. Formerly known as Jiang Haicheng, Jinhua, Zhejiang. 1932 Join China Left-wing Artists Union. 1933 published the long poem "Dayan River-My Nanny" for the first time under the pseudonym "Ai Qing", with sincere feelings and fresh poetic style, which caused a sensation in the poetry circle. Later, he published poems such as Dayan River (1939), Torch (194 1) and Facing the Sun (1947). With bold brushstrokes and strong feelings, he expressed his feelings for the motherland and the people. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he created poetry collections such as Colorful Poems and Exotic Poems, and published various versions such as Ai Qing's Selected Narrative Poems, Ai Qing's Selected Lyric Poems, Ai Qing's Selected Poems and Ai Qing's Complete Works.
In the history of the development of China's new poetry, Ai Qing is another world-renowned poet who has promoted the poetic style of a generation, exerted an important influence after Guo Moruo and Wen Yiduo. 1985, France awarded Ai Qing the highest medal of literature and art.
2. The process of writing a book
After1976 "_ _" was smashed, Ai Qing's unjust case was rehabilitated, and his creation was full of youth, and he wrote and published excellent works such as Fish Fossil. 1979, the poet himself compiled Ai Qing's Poems and submitted them to People's Literature Publishing House for publication. This collection of poems contains the poet's major works from 1930s to the end of 1970s, which basically reflects the poet's creative process and style characteristics.
3. Style of works
Ai Qing's poems look from the style: before liberation, he cursed the darkness and eulogized the light with deep, intense and unrestrained brushwork; After liberation, he continued to praise the people, praise the light and think about life. His "Return" is more extensive in content, deeper in thought, deeper in emotion, more diverse in techniques and more sophisticated in art. His poems are based on realism and symbolism, simple and fresh, profound and meaningful, clear but not obvious, sometimes implicit and not obscure, and practice his aesthetic proposition of "simplicity, simplicity, concentration and lightness". Ai Qing is a representative poet of free verse.
Second, expand and extend.
1. The story of the poet
193 1 year, when the September 18th Incident broke out, Ai Qing was studying in France. He was discriminated against and insulted in Paris, just like many French youths who stayed in China. One day, when Ai Qing went to a hotel to check in, the hotel staff asked his name. Ai Qing said that his name was Jiang Haicheng, but the other party mistakenly thought it was "Chiang Kai-shek" and immediately shouted. In a rage, Ai Qing put an "X" under the cursive prefix of "Jiang", took the hometown homonym of "Cheng" as "Qing" and filled in "Ai Qing" when registering. So Ai Qing became his pen name.
2. Classic quotations
Why do I often cry? Because I love this land deeply.
People don't like lies, no matter how pretentious or grandiose they are, they won't impress people. Everyone has a measure of language in his heart.
(3) personal pain and happiness must be integrated into the pain and happiness of the times.
There is no eternal night on the earth, and there is no eternal winter in the world.
Because the earth that we once died has come back to life under the clear sky! -suffering has also become a memory. In its warm chest, it will be the blood of the combatants.
6. A tree, a tree, stands apart from each other, and the wind and air tell their distance. But under the cover of soil, their roots were elongated, and in the invisible depths, they entangled their roots.
Third, wonderful appreciation
When dawn puts on white clothes
Ai Qing
Between the purple and blue Woods
From blue-gray hillsides to blue-gray hillsides,
Green grassland,
Green grassland, flowing on the grassland.
Fresh smoky emulsion ...
Ah, when dawn wears white clothes,
How fresh the fields are!
Listen,
Yellow light,
Spent the last time trembling on the pillar.
Look!
1932 65438+1October 25th, on the way from Paris to Marseille.
Gossip about sb.' s mistakes
This poem is about the scenery in the fields at dawn and my own feelings. At the beginning of the poem, the author carefully selected three color words: "purple blue", "blue gray" and "green" to outline a bright and harmonious picture for readers. On the basis of the above static description, the whole picture comes to life as "flowing on the grassland". Using "emulsion" to describe cigarettes and describe the freshness and flow of cigarettes can be described as a stroke of genius.
So, at the beginning of the second paragraph, the poet seems irresistible and expresses his heartfelt admiration: "Ah, when dawn wears white clothes,/how fresh the fields are!" At the end, the sentence "yellow light,/trembling on the pole for the last time" contains profound philosophy. "Dawn" symbolizes the power of new life, and "light" symbolizes the power of decline. Old things can't resist the pace of new things in any case.
trolley
In the area where the Yellow River flows.
At the bottom of countless dry rivers
trolley
With a wheel
Make a harsh sound and shake the gloomy sky.
Through the cold and silence
From the foot of the mountain
To the foot of the mountain
Full of noise
The sorrow of the people in the northland
On a cold day
Between poor villages and small villages
trolley
With independent wheels
Deep rutting on the gray loess layer
Across the vast desert
From this road
Which way?
Weave with each other
The sorrow of the people in the northland
Early 1938
Gossip about sb.' s mistakes
At the beginning of 1938, the poet came to the Yellow River from the cold Wuhan and wrote nearly ten simple and dignified poems, among which Handcart was one. This poem is only twenty lines long, but it outlines a real heartbreaking situation. There is not a redundant word in the whole poem, and every accurate and heavy word contains the sense of reality of history and suffering, just like a heavy wheelbarrow running over the reader's heart.
I love this land.
If I were a bird,
I should also sing with a hoarse throat:
This land hit by the storm,
This river of sadness and anger will surge forever,
This endless wind,
And the gentle dawn from the forest ...
And then I died,
Even feathers rot in the ground.
Why do I often cry?
Because I love this land deeply. ...
Gossip about sb.' s mistakes
This is a well-known lyric poem. The poet incarnates as a "bird" and sings with a hoarse throat, singing about our troubled country. Then it further describes the objects that birds sing-land, river, wind and dawn. They are all images of weather-beaten, sad and angry, struggling.
In the second paragraph of the poem, the poet turned to a close-up of "I", a static close-up of "tears in my eyes", which showed the grief and pain that lingered in my heart for a long time. The last two sentences are the essence of the whole poem, and they are the confessions of all patriots' sincere feelings for the motherland in that era of suffering.
Dawn notice
For my wish.
Poet, get up
Please tell them.
Said that what they were waiting for came.
Said I came through the dew
Has been led by the last star.
I come from the east.
From the rough sea
I will bring light to the world.
And will bring warmth to mankind.
Lend you the mouth of an upright man
Please take down my message.
Tell those who are full of longing in their eyes
And distant cities and villages immersed in suffering.
Ask them to welcome me-
Pioneer of day, messenger of light
Open all the windows to welcome you.
Open all the doors. Welcome.
Please whistle to welcome you.
Please blow the horn to welcome.
Ask the cleaner to clean the street.
Please drive a van to remove the garbage.
Let the workers walk in the street with broad steps.
Line up the cars across the square.
Please also wake up the village from the wet fog.
To welcome me, I opened their fence.
Let the village women open their chickens.
Ask the farmers to pull the cows out of the cowshed.
Let them know with your warm mouth.
Said I came from the other side of the mountain, the other side of the forest.
Ask them to clean the threshing floor.
And those patios that are always dirty
Please open the window with the sticker.
Please open the door with Spring Festival couplets.
Please wake up this careful woman.
And the man who snores.
Please let the young lovers get up, too
And those sleepy girls
Please wake up the sleepy mother.
And the baby around her
Please wake everyone up.
Even patients and parturients.
Even those who are elderly
People groaned in bed.
Even those who were injured in the just war.
And those displaced by the collapse of their hometown.
Please wake up all unfortunate people.
I will also give them comfort.
Please wake up all those who love life.
Workers, technicians and painters
Please welcome the singer with a song.
The sound of grass mixed with dew
Please welcome the dancers with dancing.
Put on their white misty dressing gowns.
Please wake up those healthy and beautiful people.
Said I was going to knock on their windows.
Please be a poet who is loyal to time.
News that brings comfort to mankind
Let them prepare for it, let everyone prepare for it.
I will come when the rooster crows for the last time.
Ask them to gaze at the sky with pious eyes.
I will give the kindest light to all who expect me.
Please tell them before the end of tonight.
Said that what they were waiting for came.
Gossip about sb.' s mistakes
This poem was written at the beginning of 1942. The poet went to Yan 'an from Chongqing. He saw the dawn of the coming victory with sensitive eyes, so he created the image of "Dawn" and gave it a new meaning. The whole poem begins with the tone of dialogue between "Dawn" and the poet. In the poem, "I" is "Dawn", "You" is a poet, and "They" are people who long for light. The whole poem uses a lot of parallelism and repeated layout, which is full of a winning pride.
Lost Years
Unlike lost luggage.
You can get it back at the lost and found office.
Lost Years
I don't even know where I lost it—
Some of them disappeared in pieces,
Some have been lost for ten or twenty years,
Some are lost in the noisy city,
Some are lost in distant wasteland,
Some are crowded stations,
Some are under abandoned small oil lamps;
What is lost is not like a piece of paper, you can pick it up.
More like a bowl of water spilled on the ground.
It is dry and has no shadow;
Time is a flowing liquid-
Cann't afford to salvage with a sieve or net;
Time cannot become a solid,
If only it were a fossil,
It can even be found in rock formations for tens of thousands of years;
Time is like a gas,
Like smoke from the front of a speeding train!
The lost years are like a friend,
Isolated from the world, suffered some hardships,
Get news suddenly; he said
Long gone.
Gossip about sb.' s mistakes
The poet 1957 was wrongly classified as a rightist and was forced to stop writing for more than 20 years. 1976 wrote again. In this poem, he deeply recalled his "lost twenty years of pain" in exile. In poetry, he compares time to something lost, to a piece of paper, to gas, liquid and solid, and finally, he compares time to a friend more skillfully. When you think of him, he is no longer on earth. When readers read this poem, on the one hand, it touches the author's inner pain, on the other hand, it will arouse the feeling that "time flies and the past is gone", reminding themselves to cherish time and grasp the present.
A tiger
Beautiful tiger pattern
Shine on you
What makes you so elegant?
What makes you shine?
More exquisite than the best porcelain.
Harder than a white gem.
An oval shape as smooth as a goose egg.
I can't find a scar the size of a needle tip
How many years at the bottom of despair
Rolling in the boundless waves.
Dressed in jade armor.
Protect the most vulnerable life.
If the occasional waves hadn't swept me to the beach.
I never expected to see such beautiful sunshine.
1979 12 17, am 1 point.
Gossip about sb.' s mistakes
A tiger shell given to Ai by a lady aroused the poet's emotion. The first eight lines of this poem use several metaphors to describe the appearance and texture of tiger-spotted shellfish, which makes people feel the image and texture of tiger-spotted shellfish. The last few words are not only related to the fate of tiger-spotted shellfish, but also to their own fate.
"For many years, I have been at the bottom of despair/rolling in endless waves/wearing jade armor/protecting the most vulnerable life//I never thought that I would have seen such beautiful sunshine if the accidental waves hadn't brought me to the beach." It sums up the poet's painful experience for many years and the joy of returning to the sunshine later. The ingenious use of metaphor is the greatest feature of the whole poem.
