1, "thousands" and "ten thousand" are exaggerated figures, and "absolute" and "extinction" are exaggerated descriptions.
2. "There are no birds in a hundred mountains" and "There are no footprints in a thousand paths" are dual.
Original poem:
Jiang Xue in Tang Dynasty: Liu Zongyuan
There are no birds flying over those mountains, and there are no traces of people in those paths.
A boat on the river, a fisherman wearing his webworm moth; Fishing alone is not afraid of snow and ice.
Explanation:
On all the mountains, birds are gone, and on all the roads, there are no traces of people.
On a lonely boat on the river, an old man in a bamboo hat was fishing alone on the cold river covered with heavy snow.
Extended data:
Jiang Xue was written during Liu Zongyuan's exile in Yongzhou (805-8 15). Liu Zongyuan was demoted to Yongzhou Sima and exiled for ten years. He expresses the value and ideal interest of life through poetry.
This is a silvery white world with snowflakes flying. At that time, there were neither the shadows of birds nor the footprints of pedestrians. There is only a tiny shadow on the picture, an old fisherman in Dai Li, stuck alone in the cold river. This is a faint ink painting.
The words "thousand" and "ten thousand" in the poem are opposite. Write the majestic scenery of the mountain first, then write the path in the mountain, and embed a quiet and broad panorama in the picture in the form of dialogue. Turn to describe the scenery of the river: there is only one boat, an old man from Dai Li and a fishing rod in the river.
The author gradually shortened the focal length of the picture. Snow is depicted from the side, and the word snow does not appear until the end of the poem. The first words of these two sentences are "loneliness" and "independence", which are also striking. The only moving thing in the photo is the heavy snow. The old man's eyes on the boat were motionless and he was full of doubts about the fish floating in the river. This is a severe, quiet and cold world.
The cold snow-capped mountains and rivers described in the poem are undoubtedly the author's big social environment, and the old man who is still fishing in the snow is undoubtedly the embodiment of the lonely and amnesia author. This painting is actually a psychological sketch.
