Appreciation of Li Bai and Farewell to Jingmen Ferry

Appreciation of Li Bai's A Farewell to Jingmen Ferry; Sailing from Jingmen Ferry, you will be with people in the south soon. At the end of the mountain range and the beginning of the plain, the river winds through the wilderness. The moon rises like a mirror, and the sea clouds twinkle like palaces. The water brings you the feeling of home and makes your boat travel 300 miles. Enjoy Jingmen, the mountain name, in the south bank of the Yangtze River in the northwest of Yidu County, Hubei Province, across the river from Huya Mountain, which belonged to the State of Chu during the Warring States Period. Li Bai spent his childhood and adolescence in Shu. 25 years old; He began to travel around the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and Yellow River. This poem was written when he was away from home. The poem is entitled "Seeing Friends Off at Jingmen Ferry", and Shen Deqian thinks that "there is no farewell in the poem, but the word" in the title "can be deleted" (Tang Poetry). It seems that this theory is not appropriate. Farewell is not a poet's farewell in the same boat. It can be seen from the last two sentences of this poem that "farewell" originally refers to "hometown water" to bid farewell to poets. Yu Biyun, who is nearby, also said: "The last two words of farewell, words are everywhere, work and water are far away from them, and the hearts of those who see me off are with them." This poem is a lyric work by borrowing scenery. Clever idea. The context is very organized, the structure is ups and downs, and there is quite a sense of hierarchy. The first two sentences are general statements, stating that the poet left his hometown and sailed through Jingmen. Roaming in the territory of ancient Chu State. Du Yuan is the antonym of Du Yuan. "Come from" means to do it. These two sentences may not seem amazing, but they are closely related to the later poems and have an important role in threading the needle and running through the whole poem. The last four sentences of "the mountain is flat and primitive" are flashbacks. The phrase "the mountains are flat and the rivers meander in the wilderness" refers to the change of the scenery on the ground when the poet sits on the boat and looks up. These two sentences have great capacity. There is a three-dimensional sense of spacious space and a long-term sense of travel. It describes the poet taking a boat from Sichuan, along the Yangtze River, down the river and through the winding, varied and towering Three Gorges. When we came to the vast Hubei plain, the mountains gradually disappeared. With the change of the mountain, the surging Yangtze River gradually calmed down and slowly flowed eastward on the vast Yuan Ye. It uses highly condensed language. The geographical changes of the poet's whole trip are very general. These two sentences, as well as Du Fu's poem "The stars are as wide as the moon flows over the river" ("One Night Abroad"), are all good sentences, but they are all wonderful. The difference is that Li Bai's two poems describe the scenery during the day, Du Fu's two poems describe the scenery at night, Shi Li's poem is "Sailing for a while" and Du Fu's poem is "Stop the boat and look closely" (Wang Qi's Notes on the Complete Works of Li Taibai), so there is no difference between good and bad. "The moon is held up like a mirror, and the sea clouds twinkle like a palace" is a description of the night scene in space. The poet sat on a boat and looked up at the sky in Wan Li. He saw a bright moon flying down from the sky like a mirror, shining brightly on the earth. Clouds floating in the blue sky suddenly joined together. Due to refraction, they form a very spectacular mirage. These two metaphors are vivid, depicting the charming scenery of space and showing the poet's rich imagination. Regarding the sentence "the moon is held up like a mirror", it was explained that the moon reflected into the river like a mirror flying from the air. This explanation seems out of place. "The moon is like a mirror" is very poetic. That is, the moon moves down from space, just like a mirror flying down from the sky. There is no meaning of "the shadow of the moon enters the river" here. Xin Qiji wrote: "A round of autumn shadows turns to golden waves, and flying mirrors are re-polished." He compared the moon to a mirror flying from the sky, which is exactly the same as Li Bai's poem. Yu Biyun said: "Five or six sentences are about what you saw in the river, and the sky mirror is used to describe the brightness of the moon. It's strange to describe clouds with sea towers, but the river is vast and spacious, so what you see is what you get. If you watch the clouds and the moon in the courtyard, there is no such thing. " (ditto) Extraordinary opinion, which is a good comment. The last two sentences, "And the water has taken you home and painted you a boat for three hundred miles", are closely related to the poem "Farewell" and echo the first two poems of the poet who traveled to Sichuan. Li Bai spent all his life in Shu from the age of five to twenty-five. He loves the mountains and rivers of his hometown and has strong feelings for his hometown. When the poet suddenly leaves his hometown and travels far away, he will naturally feel the feeling of parting, which can also be said to be a kind of "feeling of parting". The beauty of these two poems is that it is obvious that the poet has the feeling of leaving his hometown to say goodbye, but he didn't say it directly. Instead, it is anthropomorphic to say that "hometown water" has deep feelings for itself and takes great pains. From Sichuan to Jingmen, it is "rowing your boat for three hundred miles". Using this anthropomorphic technology. Compared with expressing one's feelings directly and stating one's feelings of leaving home, it is more tortuous, implicit, poetic and interesting. In a word, this poem is quite successful in art, full of twists and turns, subtle ups and downs, sometimes writing about the landscape on the ground, and sometimes writing about the wonders in space; Sometimes I write about the appreciation of nature with rolling mountains and swift rivers during the day, and sometimes I write about the enjoyment of changing space scenes at night. Finally, the personification technique is used to express the poet's feelings of leaving home in a tortuous and implicit way. Through the poet's careful observation and appreciation of natural scenery, we can appreciate the enterprising spirit and infinite vitality of young poets who have just entered the society. In particular, the phrase "the mountain is flat and primitive, and the river winds through the wilderness" vividly describes the poet crossing the Three Gorges by boat, climbing mountains and mountains, and gradually disappearing into the vast Yuan Ye; With the disappearance of the mountains, the surging Yangtze River slowly flows eastward on the endless plain ... The poet painted a very real landscape picture with this simple brushwork and faint color, leaving endless beauty for future generations.
