The Record describes the process of fishermen discovering and visiting the Peach Blossom Garden in the form of prose. The discovery of the Peach Blossom Garden was "met" when the fisherman forgot the distance of the journey. Being in the long green water, the peach grove on the shore and the colorful flowers gave people a feeling of mysterious change. The disappearance of the Peach Blossom Garden is also confusing and dreamlike.
But at the same time, the peach blossom garden described by the author is natural, vivid and affectionate, because there are specific times, places and people in the text, which are written by fishermen's personal experience. This is the characteristic of prose genre, which makes the article have a tortuous and novel story. Poetry focuses on describing the social system of the Peach Blossom Garden and the poet's yearning, which is different from the detailed description of gods and colors in Ji.
The social view expressed in the poem is to oppose the thin reality with the "purity" of Taoism, which sets off the contradictions aroused by the dark society. In this way, the unique soul formed by this detached spirit makes the poem contain a detached artistic conception, so this seemingly gentle narrative also brings an elegant and refined charm. These are determined by the different genres of "Collection" and "Poetry".
2. From the choice of content.
First, Ji organizes the full text according to what fishermen have seen and heard, so the choice of content must be limited to what they have seen and heard at a time and place. And "poetry" is narrated by the author as a third party, so it can be spread from many sides and angles.
The content selection of Ji focuses on implication, which can describe and draw the spirit. The content selection of "poetry" is to start from the big aspect and expand one's own face. In this way, the two complement each other and perfectly embody the theme.
Secondly, due to the stylistic limitation of Ji, I chose the details that are full of plots and the satrap can't find the direction to express my wish-I want to go, and so does the author. This is implicit and meaningful. Poetry, on the other hand, gives full play to the advantages of poetry expression and directly States: "Simplicity and thinness are different sources, but they are also secluded." It is natural and sincere to point out the reasons why the Peach Blossom Garden is out of reach.
Extended data
Peach Blossom Garden Poetry and Peach Blossom Garden Story both describe the same utopian ideal society, but they are not repeated. Ji is a prose with twists and turns, novel plots, characters, dialogues, specific descriptions and novel colors; The language of "Poetry" is relatively simple, and the situation of Taoyuan society is described in detail.
"Ji" takes the experience of the fisherman as the material, and writes what the fisherman saw and heard. The author's mood and attitude are hidden behind the words, while "Poetry" is a poem that the poet directly describes the historical state of Taoyuan and directly expresses his feelings and wishes. The two complement each other, which fully shows the ideological and aesthetic significance of Peach Blossom Garden.
Some people think that it is a negative retrogression to praise "ancient law" instead of "wisdom" in Taohuayuan's poems. This is not really understanding the original intention of the poet's writing. The so-called "ancient law", although a kind of sustenance, expresses the simple yearning for ancient society, rather than reversing history; The so-called "why use wisdom" is actually an expression of hatred and negation of intrigue and intrigue in secular life.
As pointed out by predecessors, Tao Yuanming is a person who is "interested in the world" and "wants to do what he can't do". He has his own ideals and regrets that cannot be realized, which are the essence of his thoughts.
