Section 1 of Farewell to Cambridge writes about the long-lost students' thousands of parting worries when they leave their alma mater. The use of three "gentle" words makes us feel as if the poet came on tiptoe like a breeze, and then drifted away quietly. And the deepest affection turns into "clouds in the western world" between waves. At the same time, it reveals the inseparable feelings and sets the lyrical tone for the poem. From section 2 to section 6, it describes the poet's boating in the Kanghe River in search of dreams. The golden willow covered with the sunset, the green grass on the soft mud and the pool under the shade of the tree come into view one by one. Two metaphors are used very accurately. The second is that the clear pool water is suspected as "rainbow in the sky". After being crushed by floating algae, it turns into a "rainbow-like dream". It is precisely between crazy in love that poets, like Zhuang Zhoumeng butterfly, feel that "the beautiful shadow in the waves is rippling in my heart" and are willing to be a swaying aquatic plant in the soft waves of Kanghe River. This kind of good structure of subjective and objective integration is both a wonderful puppet. In verses 5 and 6, the poet turns out a new artistic conception, and pushes the whole poem to a climax by using four refrain sentences: "Seeking a dream", "Full of a boat full of splendor,/Singing in the splendor of splendor", "But I can't sing" and "Summer insects are silent for me/Silence is Cambridge tonight", just like the water of a river, full of twists and turns! And his madness of singing in the greener grass and the splendor of the stars has not been achieved. At this time, silence and silence are better than many love words! In the last section, three "quietly" words correspond to the first loop. Come smartly and walk smartly. What do you shake off with a wave of your sleeve? Needless to say, since I have been to Cambridge Nirvana once, why take away a cloud? The whole poem is the best description of Xu Zhimo's "poetic life" in one go. Hu Shi said: "His outlook on life is really a kind of' simple belief', in which there are only three big characters: one is love, the other is freedom and the other is beauty. He dreams that these three ideal conditions can meet in one life, which is his' simple belief'. His whole life. Xu Zhimo advocated artistic poetry. He deeply admired Yiduo's poetic ideas of musical beauty, painting beauty and architectural beauty, especially musical beauty. He even said: "... Only by understanding the truth that the life of poetry lies in its Internal rhythm can we appreciate the true interest of poetry; No matter how noble your thoughts are and how passionate your emotions are, you have to thoroughly' musicalize' (that is, poeticize) in order to get the understanding of poetry, ... "("Poetry Magazine Holiday ").
On the other hand, this poem Farewell to Cambridge: the whole poem has seven sections, four lines each, two or three meals each, which are eclectic and rigorous. It is not only the sound of pious students' dreams, but also the ebb and flow of poets' feelings, and it has a unique aesthetic pleasure. Seven verses are arranged in a staggered way, and the rhythm is slowly spread out in them, which is quite a poet's temperament. It can be said that it reflects Xu Zhimo's poetic beauty proposition.
Appreciation 2:
< Re-reading. To sum up in three sentences: it is a feeling of nostalgia, farewell and sadness after disillusionment, which means subjective thoughts and feelings; Context is the objective scenery described in poetry. What is artistic conception? It is the perfect combination of the subjective thoughts and feelings of the characters and the objective scenery, and it forms a unique artistic picture, which is called artistic conception. Of course, when we appreciate Xu Zhimo's poems, just like other poems, we need to mobilize our accumulation of life and knowledge, and then we will talk about this poem one after another.
If we analyze the poem, "I left gently, just as I came gently, I waved goodbye to the clouds in the western world", It can be summed up in a few words: slow rhythm, light movements, lingering affection, and at the same time with a touch of sadness. Also, add a sentence, saying goodbye to the clouds in the western sky, and the rosy clouds in the western sky give us an impression, that is, they have laid a gorgeous color for the description behind, and the whole scenery is reflected by the sunset. So this sentence is used to sum up and set a tone for this poem.
" The beautiful shadow in the waves is rippling in my heart. "This poem is really about the beauty of the Kanghe River. At the same time, the willow tree" willow "-"stay "in ancient poems has the meaning of farewell, which left a deep impression on the poet. How much concern is expressed by" rippling in my heart ".Of course, his technique is comparable (personification and imitation) In the gentle waves of Cambridge, I am willing to be a water plant ".This poem highlights the quiet and free state of Cambridge. Freedom and beauty are exactly what Xu Zhimo pursues. At the same time, it shows a kind of love, and the water plant seems to welcome the arrival of the poet. Thirdly, I think it is not completely divorced from the artistic conception of China's poems. It has the same place as China's ancient poems, that is, the integration of things and me. The second sentence is to give priority to customers, and the third sentence is to turn things into objects. I can't forget things. These two poems just show the close relationship between Xu Zhimo and Cambridge. These are the three aspects we talked about earlier: determining the ideal, stepping into the poetry world, and expressing one's feelings in the wonderful scenery. The three are closely linked, and expressing one's feelings through concrete images. We appreciate poetry from the image and gradually accept the poet's heart. The fourth quarter is the turning point. " It's a rainbow in the sky, crushed in an impetuous room, with a rainbow-like dream:. This poem uses the method of combining reality with reality, "reality" is the description of the scenery, and "emptiness" is the application of symbolic techniques. A pool of water is very clear, and the glow of sunlight is reflected. "It's not a clear spring, it's a rainbow in the sky", and it's a red light, but it's a real writing. However, a lot of algae float on the pool water, blocking part of it. This reminds me of a poem written by Mr. Wen Yiduo to commemorate the death of his eldest daughter. He used a metaphor "like a dream in summer, like a bell in a dream". As we all know, the dream is beautiful, the bell is melodious, but it is short-lived, so the rainbow-like dream is beautiful and short-lived. In 1927, his dream was shattered, and he was at odds with Lu Xiaoman, so he was very depressed.
Section 5. Looking for dreams? Support a long pole, slowly trace back to the greener grass, load a boat full of starlight, and sing songs at the gorgeous place of starlight. "This poem is Xu Zhimo's memory and nostalgia for his past life. He lived in Cambridge for two years, leisurely and leisurely. At that time, he had his own ideals, his life was full, and he had hope for tomorrow. Therefore, he used" a boat full of starlight "to compare his life at that time, with It is still sad to return to reality, so "Quietly is the sound of parting, summer insects are silent for me, and silence is Cambridge tonight." This poem is the climax of emotion, which fully shows Xu Zhimo's feelings for Cambridge and focuses on the sadness of parting. This poem needs to be understood in connection with other poems, including ancient poems. "Quietly is the sound of parting" is a metaphor. For example, Su Shi's ". Therefore, "Xiao" is a metaphor for "quietly" to illustrate the poet's mood. Therefore, the "quietly" action has the poet's feelings, and then "Summer insects are silent for me, and silence is Cambridge tonight." Poetry pays attention to conciseness. Why do you repeatedly repeat "silence", "quietly" and "gently"? This is not a waste of language, but it is precisely his key point.
In fact, "silence" is the deepest feeling of human beings. For example, in Liu Yong's "Yu Lin Ling", the sentence "Holding hands and looking at each other with tears, I was speechless and choking", and in Su Shi's "Jiangchengzi", he recalled the ten years after his wife Wang Fu died and the time when they met. There is also Li Bai's a farewell to meng haoran on his way to yangzhou of the Yellow Crane Tower: "An old friend left the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and fireworks went down to Yangzhou in March." By contrast, in March, the spring was bright and white flowers were in full bloom, but it was a pity that my friends wanted to leave me. For example, "where petals have been shed like tears, and lonely birds have sung their grief", the next two sentences "Lonely sails are far away and the sky is blue, only the Yangtze River flows." The meaning is beyond words, aiming at being like the inside. "There is no word. Watching friends leave and standing in isolation for a long time shows deep feelings. For example, as Wang Guowei said, "all scenery is sentimental" and "writing scenery is lyrical", so "only seeing the Yangtze River flowing in the sky" can cause us a lot of reverie, and another example is Li Yu's "asking how worried you can be, just like a river flowing eastward". As long as it can make us associate with it, a poem is a good poem, which tells us to appreciate it. In this way, we can understand new poetry. Writing well is the distillation and sublimation of the poet's life experience. In other words, we can reach the poet's heart through the bridge of life. For example, do students who have just left their parents feel more comfortable reading Farewell to Cambridge? Why is it that "silence has the deepest feelings"? Like the example in life, the opportunity and boat for expressing the deepest feelings have gone, but the person who sent them away stood still and mused. Combined with the sentence "Silence is Cambridge tonight", Cambridge is still like this, why is the poet worthy? Actually, it reflects the poet's deep feelings for Cambridge, so "quietly" carries the poet's subjective feelings.
The seventh sentence "I left quietly, just as I came quietly, waving my sleeves and not taking away a cloud", I think "cloud" is symbolic and represents a rainbow-like dream. It is reflected in the water, but it is not taken away, so farewell to Cambridge is not peace. It is the ideal to bid farewell to Cambridge. This is the in-depth understanding of this poem.
Let's talk about it again roughly. The poem Farewell to Cambridge fully embodies the "three beauties" of the Crescent Poetry School, namely, the beauty of painting, architecture and music. The beauty of music is the most emphasized by Xu Zhimo, in which the first and last sentences are repeated, strengthening the sense of rhythm, and the words in it are overlapping, such as "quietly" So it's not a rhyme to the end. Then there's the tone ruler, "I'm leaving gently", the three-character ruler, the one-character ruler and the two-character ruler, which conforms to Xu Zhimo's lively and active character, and then there's the rhyme. The so-called architectural beauty, one or three poems rank first, two or four poems rank low, and the space is patchy, and the building has changed; Westbank > furthermore, one or three sentences are shorter, and two or four sentences are longer, which shows visual beauty, music is auditory, painting is visual, and visual beauty and auditory beauty are integrated, so it will feel good to read. Then, the beauty of painting is the beauty of words, such as "Golden Willow", "Soft Wave", "Xinghui", "Soft Mud" and "Green Grass", which are colorful, dynamic and feminine. It shows the characteristics and personality like a crescent moon, so I can summarize it as: soft and melancholy artistic conception, fresh and elegant style.
Farewell to Cambridge is a beautiful lyric poem, just like an elegant and beautiful light music. In the autumn of 1928, the author visited Britain again, revisited the old place, and burst into poetry, turning his life experience into a continuous stream of feelings and blending in the beautiful scenery of Cambridge he wrote. It is also galloping in the poet's imagination.
The whole poem begins with "gently", "walking", "waving" and "parting clouds", and then uses the method of alternating reality and reality to describe a flowing picture, which constitutes a wonderful artistic conception, and meticulously reflects the poet's love for Cambridge, his longing for the past life and his helpless sadness at present. It is sincere, rich and meaningful.
This poem shows the poet's high artistic skills. The poet combines specific scenery with imagination to form a vivid artistic image of the poem, and skillfully blends atmosphere, feelings and scenes into artistic conception, so as to achieve affection and scenery in the scene. The structure of the poem is rigorous and neat, and it is patchwork. The whole poem has 7 sections, each with 4 lines, forming two parallel steps. 1, 3 lines are slightly shorter, 2, 4 lines are slightly longer, and each line ranges from 6 to 8 words. The poet seems to intentionally combine the forms of metrical poetry and free verse, making it a new form of poetry, full of nationalization and modern architectural beauty. The language of the poem is fresh and beautiful, the rhythm is gentle and euphemistic, harmonious and natural, accompanied by emotional ups and downs, like a melodious scattered board, light and tactful. Touching the readers' heartstrings.
In the 192s, the poet Wen Yiduo advocated the beauty of modern poetry, such as music, painting and architecture. Farewell to Cambridge can be said to have three beauties, which is a swan song in Xu Zhimo's poems.
Appreciation 3:
In the autumn of 192, Xu Zhimo arrived. He went to China to give lectures. Moreover, Russell was expelled from Cambridge University for opposing the First World War. Later, Xu Zhimo was introduced by Dickinson, a British writer, and was able to enter Cambridge University. Here, Xu Zhimo met Lin Changmin, the chief justice of Beiyang Government, and his daughter Lin Huiyin, and he began to pursue this beautiful young talented woman. Therefore, Xu Zhimo dissolved his marriage with his ex-wife Zhang Youyi. Unfortunately, Later, Lin Huiyin married Liang Sicheng, the son of Liang Qichao.
Then, a poem Farewell to Cambridge fully showed Xu Zhimo's warm, sincere, gentle, delicate and slightly elegant romantic personality, leaving a very deep impression on future generations:
I left gently, just as I came gently; I waved gently to bid farewell to the clouds in the western sky. The golden willow by the river is the bride in the sunset; The beautiful shadows in the waves are rippling in my heart. The green grass on the soft mud is swaying under the water. In the gentle waves of Kanghe River, I am willing to be an aquatic plant! That pool under the shade of elm is not a clear spring, but a rainbow in the sky. Crushed among floating algae, a rainbow-like dream is precipitated. Looking for a dream? Support a long pole and wander back to the greener place of the grass; Full of a boat full of starlight, singing in the splendor of starlight. But I can't sing, quietly is a farewell flute; Summer insects are also silent for me, silence is Cambridge tonight; I left quietly, just as I came quietly; I waved my sleeve and didn't take away a cloud.
This is how Xu Zhimo perceived love with mimosa-like touch and baby-like emotion. It was his simple love concept that injected romantic atmosphere into his poems. Although this romance could not become a reality, Xu Zhimo's fiery and delicate feelings flowed quietly with the Kanghe River in his poems.
As the first artistic feature of Xu Zhimo's poems, He is really good at capturing images in life, and at discovering poetic interests in life, and integrating the images of life and poetic interests into his works.
