? Tao Yuanming (365-427), a latent and bright figure, was called Mr. State. Poets and writers in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Chaisang people in Xunyang. He lost his father when he was young, and his family came down. Young Tao Yuanming lives in poverty. Due to social unrest, he never became an official in his early years. He began to be an official at the age of 29, and was later forced by poverty. He worked as a state wine sacrifice, joined the army, county magistrate and other small officials. Ren Jiangzhou offered a drink offering, and soon retired. After that, he lived a life of hiding in Tibet and being an official. At the age of 41, he was re-elected as Peng. After more than eighty days, he left his post and retired to the countryside.
From this passage about Tao Yuanming, we can see that Tao Yuanming's official career is not smooth sailing, but bumpy. Perhaps the frustration of official career is the reason why Tao Yuanming retired. However, Tao Yuanming's personality of "five buckets of rice don't bow down" is the root of his frustration in official career. Who doesn't want his career to be brilliant and smooth? So is Tao Yuanming. However, the intrigue of the turbid officialdom made Tao Yuanming disheartened. Don't want to go with the flow is to let your heart turn to ashes! Nothing, as long as you make up your mind to stop being an official and go to the wilderness to find your own paradise.
? When the real society is incompatible with itself, everyone will despair of reality and yearn for the ideal state. However, does Tao Yuanming's "idealism" always exist? The answer is definitely no, it is the social turbidity that forces Tao Yuanming to become an "idealist", forces him to retire, and forces him to become a "Peach Blossom Garden" that seems real as fantasy; And he just wants to make his turbulent experience feel a little comfort!
? Therefore, Tao Yuanming is not an idealist, but a dream catcher; A dream catcher who is trying to find his own world. The so-called "the article is irrelevant." Tao Yuanming's personality of "five buckets of rice don't bend his back" and his pursuit of a clear world also make his works full of dullness, naturalness and freshness, which complement the pastoral scenery. Do we just feel carefree when we recite "picking chrysanthemums under the hedge and seeing Nanshan leisurely"? And who can know Tao Yuanming's helplessness behind this "carefree"?
