Who wrote the poem of the chimney sweeper?
This poem is written in the tone of a child about another man named Tom. What happened to the big boy? Here, Dacre's English name is homophonic with Dark, which has its own clear meaning. At the same time, this poem uses black coffins to allude to the coal ash world where children who sweep chimneys live. Some critics think that dyeing children with black coal ash represents human cruelty. The most sad and touching plot of the whole poem is that the guests sacrifice the original golden and soft curly hair for the convenience of work, because bare head is not afraid of being polluted by coal ash, and it is also convenient to clean up. Secondly, the encouragement and encouragement of angels have made people feel a little helpless and sad, so at the end, the children sweeping the chimney show the happiness and tranquility brought by expectation and longing, which really makes people feel that "life is here, and heaven is better" (Jiang Yan's "Hate Fu")! As readers, we know for sure that the ultimate expectation and longing of children sweeping chimneys can never be realized in this world. However, Blake's original intention in writing poetry is not to criticize, he just wants to write a situation, an unbearable situation. However, in the artistic expression of poetry, the "ironic" effect that may be produced by comparing and handling contradictory situations is deeply reflected in Blake's naive and simple tone of sweeping the chimney. Black's The Chimney Sweeper was published together with other poems, together with 27 paintings he painted, under the name of Song of Innocence. Later, in 1824, it was recommended by another important British essayist, Charles Lamb (1775- 1834), and was included in the propaganda manual of the social movement against "social injustice" at that time, as information for lobbying members to abolish child labor. This social movement brochure, edited by james montgomery, is entitled "Picture Book of Friends of Chimney Sweepers and Mountain Climbing Boys". Interested in learning about this social movement, maybe you can refer to it. It is said that the average life expectancy of children who sweep chimneys is very short, and most children spend the rest of their lives in deformity or lung disease. 1840 On August 7, the British Parliament finally passed legislation to abolish the child labor system, and the chimney sweepers rhyming with "weep" officially disappeared in the streets of Britain. Social injustice caused by exploitation and oppression can appear in various forms. Sometimes, when we focus on the magnificent buildings and the growth of people, it may be easy for us to ignore or fail to see the injustice everywhere around us. Some injustices are so subtle and meticulous that we hardly know that they really exist. In the same way, literary and art workers can exaggerate the rational progress of human nature and civilization to us, or narcissistically tell stories of personal redemption, but someone must be able to explain to us the looming destruction and crying in different lives. Here, Bai Juyi (772-846), a poet in the Tang Dynasty, advocated that "articles should be written in time, and songs and poems should be written for things", which may still have its ideals and applicability. We may not know for sure whether the British Parliament regards the groups or people involved in the struggle as stubborn in the face of social movements, but we can imagine that some members suddenly read Blake's "The Chimney Sweeper" in the middle of the night after the banquet, and their hearts were slightly shocked, and the historical trend was different. Here and now, when our congressmen are just busy fighting and watching pictures to know people, can we expect some of them to read poems and see the world, and their hearts will be slightly shocked?
