Poem series about Ruan Ji: 300 ancient poems about sleepless nights, sitting up and playing the piano. Thin curtains look at the bright moon, and the breeze blows on the chest. Lonely in the wild, birds are singing in Beilin. What will you see when you walk? Worry and be sad alone. Note 1 Poems on Huaishang is the general topic of Ruan Ji's life poems, not a temporary work. Most of them write about life feelings, but they also say that life's fate is impermanent and life is limited, and they need to get rid of the circle of opportunities and be broad-minded. There was also a mockery of politics at that time, but it was very obscure. I couldn't sleep for two nights, so I sat up and played the piano. These two sentences are translated from RoyceWong's poem Seven Wounded Poems: "You can't sleep alone at night, but take clothes and play the piano." It means that I can't sleep in the middle of the night because of sadness, so I get up and play the piano. Night, night, midnight. See the bright moon through the thin curtains: the bright moonlight shines through the thin curtains. Take a look. Thin curtains, thin curtains. 4 fragrant bird: a kind of bird that flies and hovers. Birds fly at night because of the bright moon. Forest of steles: The Book of Songs Qin Feng Morning Wind: The rest is morning wind, and the rest is forest of steles. If you don't see a gentleman, you are worried about Qin Qin. Anyway, forget yourself! Later generations often use the word "forest of steles" to express sadness. Sixth place: singing and wailing. Appreciating Ruan Ji's poems, using metaphors, myths and legends, expressing feelings with scenery, and satirizing the present with the help of the ancient, he expressed his cynical and depressed inner world in a tortuous and obscure way, forming an artistic style that hit the point. Ruan Ji is the representative of "the beginning sound". His 82 poems "Yong Huai" are very famous lyrics. Some of these poems reflect the poet's infinite loneliness, pain and anger under the cover of all kinds of drunkenness and madness in a sinister political environment. Some poems show the poet's fear of political risks and hope to avoid the world. Some poems satirize the present by borrowing from the past, pinning their criticism or feelings on current politics, and showing the poet's concern for state affairs; There are also some poems that mock the affectation and hypocrisy of etiquette people. Generally speaking, Ruan Ji's poem "Yong Huai" takes "worrying but being sad alone" as the main tone and has a strong expressive color. In art, metaphor, sustenance, symbolism and other techniques are often used, forming a poetic style of "grief, indignation and sadness, obscurity and twists and turns". This is the first of Ruan Ji's 82 five-character Huaihe poems. Poetry expresses the poet's complex emotions such as anger, sadness, loneliness and anxiety. However, despite the poet's deep sigh of "sorrow alone", he never directly broke the "sorrow", but "directly quoted the situation to show people", which contained inner feelings in the image description. Leng Yue's cool breeze, lonely wilderness and sleepless nights turn intangible "worries" into intuitive images, as if in front of people's eyes and ears. Readers can feel the poet's lonely and angry mood from the "situational tone" shown in the poem. But that kind of "worry" is just an emotion, an experience and a feeling. People can appreciate the loneliness and bitterness contained in it, but it is difficult to grasp its specific content. The remarkable feature of this poem is that "words are heard in the sky, and feelings are sent outside the eight famine". In fact, if we can thoroughly understand Ruan Ji, this poem is not difficult to understand. Ruan Ji "originally had the ambition to help the world and belonged to Wei and Jin Dynasties. There are many reasons in the world, and few celebrities have all the people. The reason is that they are isolated from the world, so alcoholism is common (Biography of Ruan Ji in the Book of Jin). Just as he was "drunk for sixty days" so that Wendi's proposal to Emperor Wu was finally "stopped" (ditto), "drinking" was just a means for him to escape from reality, but his inner pain could not be eliminated. The description in the history books that "time and mind travel alone, not by roads and rails, but by crying instead" is a profound expression of his painful heart. Therefore, this poem, as long as we look at his words "loneliness" and "independence", is not difficult to "winding path leading to a secluded place". At the beginning of this poem, the poet introduced a lonely and desolate night scene to the reader: "I can't sleep at night, sit up and play the piano." A poet who "drinks a lot is a common thing" finds it difficult to sleep when all living beings are dreaming. He put on his clothes, sat up and played the strings to express his feelings. This is learned from the real scene. However, we might as well regard this "night" as the night of the times. In this long night, "everyone is drunk and I wake up alone." This great loner played a landmark poem. " The British wind cut off Yun Ni and made a strange sound "("Sixty-one ")! These two poems are actually adapted from Wang Jie's poem "Seven Wounded Poems": "I can't sleep all night, but I take off my clothes and play the piano." The poet further described the sleepless night. A Qing man Wu Qi said: "The word sword comes from the word thin ... there is only a thin curtain in the class. ..... If the curtains in class are thin, you can miss the moonlight. Because of this, the wind penetrated and blew me away (the conclusion of the six dynasties' poetry selection). Furthermore, we can also feel the poet's theme from the superficial meaning of this painting. The poet's description of the bright moon and the cool breeze set off his nobility. Writing "thin curtain" and "blowing my chest" is really chilling. Although this is not the romantic realm of Qu Zi's "going to Kunlun to eat jade", the spirit of being unique, dangerous and not being understood by the secular is the same. In five or six sentences, the poet focuses on the description from the perspective of vision and feeling. Five or six sentences not only further increase the images of "lonely rainbow" and "flying bird", but also add the sound of "horn" and "singing" to the picture. This wailing "lonely flood" and "flying bird" are not only the scene before the poet, but also the symbol of the poet's self. It flies alone in the long night and sings sad songs. " "Northland Forest" refers to the Book of Songs and the morning breeze, which makes the northland forest miserable. If you don't see a gentleman, you will worry about Qin Qin "(Qin Feng Morning Wind), which implies missing and caring. "Northland Forest" and "Outfield" together further constitute a desolate and cold realm. At the end of the sentence, "If you wander, what will you see? You are only sad when you are worried. " The poet's brushwork reverts from the nature of the object to the subjective self, just like Zhuang Zhoumeng's feeling about butterflies. His heart is full of emotion, but there is nowhere to tell. He may think a lot: "How generous a strong man is, and he is determined to conquer the Eight Wastes" ("Poets will never be comforted, only infinite worries, lonely wandering and eternal sorrow. Looking at the whole poem, it seems to be "repeated confusion for no reason" (in) and "like a clear cloud coming out of a hole, the number of volumes is uncertain" (in Wang Fuzhi's words), but if we grasp the poet's theme of "sadness in the heart", we can understand this "masterpiece". "Words are in the eyes and ears, and feelings are sent to the table of eight shortages." Zhong Rong's evaluation of Ruan Ji's poems in Shi Pin is not easy!
