Creation background
When he was a child, Luo lived in a small village in the north of Yiwu County. There is a pond outside the village called Luojiatang. Every spring, wicker flutters by the pond, the water is crystal clear, and geese flock on the water, which makes the scenery particularly charming. One day, a guest came to the house. Seeing that he was handsome and clever, the guests asked him a few questions. King Robin answered questions like running water, which surprised the guests. When Wang Luobin followed the guests to Luojiatang, a flock of white geese floated in the pond. The guests were interested in trying Wang Luobin, so they pointed to the goose and asked him to write a poem with it. Wang Luobin wrote this poem after a little thought.
Distinguish and appreciate
This poem is very vivid from the eyes of a seven-year-old child to see the way geese swim and play.
Ode to Goose is said to be a poem written by Luo when he was seven years old, and it is a poem describing the object. This poem, which has been passed down through the ages, has no profound ideological connotation and philosophy, but only describes things (geese) in fresh and cheerful language. Write naturally, vividly and vividly.
The beginning of Goose, Goose, Goose not only simulates the sound of geese, but also shows a leap in thinking and integration. The little poet used the word "goose" to tell the cheerful cry of the goose from far to near, which made people gradually see its "curve" shape and "Xiang Tiange" proud expression, and then wrote the colorful scene when the goose was playing in the water. Show the subtle observation of the little poet.
Through simple sketching and sketching, the vivid image of the goose is highlighted. "Go to Xiang Tiange. White hair floating green water, red palm clear waves. " Lovely dynamic images.
The first sentence uses three words "goose" to express the poet's love for geese. The word "Goose" can be understood as that the child heard the goose crow three times, and it can also be understood as that the child was very happy when he saw the goose playing in the water and shouted "Goose, Goose, Goose" three times.
The second sentence "Thinking about Xiang Tiange" describes the way geese sing. The word "Quxiang" describes the state of geese singing to the sky, which is very accurate. The song of a goose is different from that of a chicken. The chicken is singing by pulling its neck, while the goose is singing.
Three or four sentences describe the wild geese playing in the water: "White hair floats with green water, red palms clear waves." The verbs "Gone with the Wind" and "Poke" vividly show the wild geese's swimming and frolicking posture. Several colorful words such as "white hair", "red palm" and "green water" give people vivid visual images. Goose's white hair and red palm, floating on the green waves of clear water, set each other off twice, forming a beautiful "white goose splashing water map", showing Wang Bin's ability to observe things when he was a child.
Brief introduction of the author
Luo (about 638-684), a native of Yiwu, Wuzhou (now Yiwu, Zhejiang), was a poet in the Tang Dynasty. He, Yang Jiong and Lu are called "four outstanding men in the early Tang Dynasty". Also known as "Luo Fu" with Fu Jiamo. He uses bold words and strict rules. Long articles such as "Imperial Capital" are intertwined with five or seven words, which are both sarcasm and self-injury; Poems such as "Give People a Water" are sad and generous in the cross, with endless feelings.
In the emperor's Yonghui, Li, the king of Taoism, was a master of martial arts and Chang 'an. In three years, Yifeng became a counselor, was imprisoned for something, and was pardoned the following year. After two years of exposure, except for Linhai Cheng, he resigned in frustration. There is a set. In the first year of Emperor Guangxu of Wu Zetian, Wang Wei wrote "Begging" for the man who fought Wu Zetian in Yangzhou (also known as Li), but he failed to present the book and was beheaded by Wang.
biography
Robin's father, the magistrate of Bochang County, Qingzhou, died in the line of duty.
After his father died, he lived in Boshan, then moved to Xianqiu County, Yanzhou, and spent his early years in poverty.
From 650 to 655 AD, Wang Li, a Taoist priest, returned to the official position in Yonghui County. King Tao asked him to state his talents, but he was ashamed to show off and resigned. After worshipping Li Lang, he was a meticulous Dongtai bachelor. He was demoted for something, joined the army in the western regions and defended the border for a long time. After entering Shu, he lived under the door of Li Yijun, the general manager of Yaozhou Road, and put down the barbarian rebellion. I paid tribute to Lu when I was in Shu.
In 678 (the third year of Yifeng), he was later transferred to the martial arts master book and Chang 'an master book, and he entered the DPRK as a counselor from Chang 'an master book. When Wu Zetian was in power, Luo repeatedly wrote satirical articles and offended imprisonment. Luo's Political Prisoner Listening to Cicada said: "His flight went through the fog heavily, and his pure voice was drowned in the windy world. Who knows if he is still singing? Who is the heart of the watch? " Express grief and indignation. The next year, I was released because I was forgiven.
In 680 (the second year of Lu Diao), he became a county magistrate in Linhai, and was known as Luo Linhai in history. Abandoning the official and traveling to Guangling, he wrote a poem: "The sword thinks of Chu, and the golden vertebra promises to report to Korea."
In 684, Wu Zetian abandoned Zhongzong to stand on her own feet. In September this year, (that is, his grandson Li) opposed it in Yangzhou. As a member of the Xu family, he was appointed as a literary and art official in charge of confidential documents. He drafted the famous "Begging Wu Zhao for Xu Jingye": "The class started from the north wind, but the firm but gentle waves rushed to the south to fight flat, and the sound was dark and landslides changed color. You use this to defeat the enemy, why can't the enemy be destroyed, why can't you use this to make contributions? ..... Please see who owns the world today! " Passionate, swallowing mountains and rivers.
When Wu Zetian read, "How can a six-foot orphan be entrusted with a handful of dirt?" The emperor asked, "Who will do it?"
Or with the guest king, Wu Zetian sighed, "Did the Prime Minister get this person or lose this person?"
1 1 month, Xu Jingye was defeated and killed, and the whereabouts of King Robin were unknown. Zi Jian said that he and Li were killed at the same time, while the book in one's hand and one's hand said that he died by throwing himself into the river. The Book of the New Tang Dynasty said that he was "desperate and didn't know where to go".
Meng Mao's "Poetry" said: "When you are defeated by your dedication, you will run away with your guests, but you won't get it. Worried that something would happen to the general who lost the grand prize. Tens of thousands of people died at that time. For those who want to kill two people, please submit this letter first. Although I knew I wouldn't die, I didn't dare to catch it. So he is a dedicated monk in Hengshan, and he is still a pawn in his nineties. The guest king also lost his hair and traveled all over the famous mountains. To Lingyin, he died at the age of one. "
Another story says that King Robin dived to escape and died in Baishuidang (now Lvsi area in Qidong). The chasing generals were afraid of failing to pursue the imperial court again and killed two people who looked like them, so King Robin survived anonymously. Buried in Nantong after death.
According to the China Dictionary of Places of Interest, the tomb of King Robin is located in Feng Tang, which is 0/5 km east of Yiwu County, Zhejiang Province. The stone tablet in front of the tomb was rebuilt in the 13th year of Chongzhen in Ming Dynasty (1640). "
Some scholars also say that the tombs of King Robin in Nantong and Yiwu are the cenotaph.
Advantages and achievements
Luo and Lu are both good at seven-character poems, which are "full of talents and profound reasoning" and "good at what reputation" (Hu Zhenheng's Tang Yin Gui Qian).
At that time, his long ballad "Di Jing Pian" had been called a swan song. Like "Past Pian", Wang, a female Taoist, gave it to Li Rong and others as a gift. It also has the significance of the times, often with the open atmosphere of the early Ming Dynasty, rich and magnificent with verbs, lyrical narrative, and very flexible form.
This poetic style, which evolved from Xiao Fu in the Six Dynasties, absorbed the structure of windmills in Yuefu in the Six Dynasties and the antithesis and rhythm of developing modern poetry. The words are neat and smooth, the syllables are harmonious, full of sound, meaning and emotion, strong in appeal and easy to sing.
In the Ming Dynasty, He Jingming's Four Sons in the Early Tang Dynasty said that "syllables can often be sung" (preface to the bright moon collection), which means this.
Zhang, Wang Wei and Gao Shi in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Yuan Zhen and Bai Juyi in the middle Tang Dynasty, Zheng Gu and Wei Zhuang in the late Tang Dynasty and Wu in the Qing Dynasty all developed along this clue.
There are many excellent works of Wang Luobin's Five Laws. For example, The Political Prisoner Listening to Cicada is a well-known masterpiece, full of enthusiasm and deep feelings. Sending Zheng Shaofu into Liao expressed the optimistic fighting spirit of contributing to the country, which was elegant and beautiful, and the words were gorgeous and lively. Except that the tone of the poem is not harmonious and the form of the law is not yet mature, it is not inferior to Yang Jiong's Joining the Army and Purple Horse.
There are only 20 words in quatrains, such as "Giving People away from Yishui" and "Climbing the Tower in the Army", which are full of lofty aspirations, stirring the stormy atmosphere and revealing the poet's personality, which is also rare in quatrains in the early Tang Dynasty.
The "Four Masters" are equally famous, originally called poetry. Their parallel prose is brilliant and rich in words, with a fresh and elegant atmosphere. Whether lyrical, reasoning or narrative, they can be as fluent as the tongue, which is obviously different from the style of writing that blindly pursues formal beauty in the late Six Dynasties.
Luo's Begging is one of the works that can best represent the new fashion of this era and spread widely. Based on the feudal loyalty festival, it called on people to rise up against the Wu Zhou Dynasty under construction. Full of momentum and affectionate writing. Among them, the phrase "a handful of soil has not been dried, and six feet can be trusted alone" can quite stimulate the nostalgia of the old ministers in the Tang Dynasty for the former king.
It is said that when Wu Hou read these two sentences, he was moved by them and asked, "Who did it?" Or a guest king. That's right. Later, he said, "Prime Minister, don't lose this man!" (The Book of the New Tang Dynasty) shows his talent in politics and literature, and even Wu Zetian, who is arrogant in hostility, is impressed by it.
His poems, edited by Zang Yunqing at the beginning of Zhongzong, have been lost in 10 volumes.
There were four volumes, six volumes and 10 volumes popular in Ming and Qing dynasties, and the collected articles were similar, all of which were re-edited by later generations.
Chen Xijin's Collection of Notes on Luo Linhai was published in the Qing Dynasty, which is the most perfect and has a printout by Zhonghua Book Company.
