Do you understand the meaning of this poem? How do you feel after reading it?

This is the prologue of "Talking about Qin and Han Dynasties" in the third paragraph of "Tanci in the 21st Century" written by Yang Shen, which was placed in front of Mao Zonggang and his son's comments on "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

The first two sentences of the poem remind people of Du Fu's "Leaves fall like a waterfall, but I think the long river always rolls forward" and Su Shi's "The river of no return, whose waves have washed away the romantic figures of the ages", using the river that is gone forever as a metaphor for the historical process, and using the back waves to push the front waves as a metaphor for the great achievements of heroes. However, all this will eventually be taken away by the long river of history. "Success or failure is empty" is a summary of the above two historical phenomena, from which we can also see the author's broad-minded and detached outlook on life. The green hills are still there, and the setting sun is a few degrees red. Castle peak and sunset symbolize the eternity of nature and the universe. Although the ups and downs of the past dynasties are full of sadness and reincarnation, the green hills and the sunset will not change with them, and a sense of sadness that life is fleeting quietly arises. The next movie shows us the image of a white-haired fisherman. Let it shock the world, let it be turbulent, and success or failure is at stake. He only cares about the spring breeze and the autumn moon, and insists on a quiet and indifferent relationship between laughter and wine. And this old man is not an ordinary fisherman, but a scholar who is familiar with ancient and modern times, especially his indifferent and detached mind, which is the ideal personality pursued by the author.

The whole word is like nostalgia and ambition. At the beginning, we started from the big picture and cut into the macro flow of history. Four or five sentences are full of philosophy and profound artistic conception. The following film depicts the image of the old man in detail, pinning his life ideal on his living environment and life interest, thus showing a completely enlightened view of history and life.

This sentence is very heroic and tragic, including the loss and loneliness of the great hero after his success, as well as the indifference and contempt of the hermit in the mountain for fame and fortune. Linjiang's heroic cause has gone far away, just like rolling the Yangtze River and running eastward, invincible. Moreover, I think this sentence is more tragic than Dongpo's "Great River East goes to the waves and washes away, and the eternal romantic figures". Although the heroes are high-spirited and proud of the spring breeze, Jin Ge's bloody battle has gone with time, and all the gains and losses, merits and demerits have passed and been swallowed up by the long river of history.

History gives people a strong and profound feeling, not like straightforward pleasure, but like vicissitudes after honor and disgrace. "Castle Peak is still there" seems to be a reflection on heroic achievements, and it also seems to be a denial of heroic achievements, but these need not be delved into. "How many degrees is the sunset red?" In the face of the bloody sunset, history seems to have solidified. "Still" and "several degrees" struggle in the changing and unchanging reality. Maybe the world is really like this, full of changes and invariance.

In this frozen historical picture, white-haired fishermen and carefree firewood people are full of interest in autumn moon and spring breeze. But the word "used" shows inexplicable loneliness and coldness. Maybe when it's all over, there will be such desolation and calmness, depression and detachment in my heart. "A pot of turbid wine likes to meet" makes this loneliness and cold a comfort, and the joy of having friends from afar adds a little movement to the quiet atmosphere of this poem. "Turbid wine" shows the friendship between host and guest, and its meaning is not wine. In the hearts of these hermits in the mountains, those great achievements that will last forever are just people's talk after dinner. What a good road!

Feeling:

This word can be called "historical theory", which focuses on the ups and downs of past dynasties, expresses feelings with the success or failure of heroes, and expresses a broad and even enlightened view of history and life!
