First of all, understand the background of the times.
Poets often use poems to express their thoughts and feelings with distinct love and hatred, and expose and attack unreasonable social reality. Therefore, understanding the background of poetry is helpful to understand the content of poetry. For example, in the poem "Silkworm Girl", the poet used poetry to expose the unreasonable reality of "laborers don't work, laborers don't work", attacked the evil of the exploitation system, and expressed the poet's deep sympathy for the working people. After understanding this background, it is easy to understand the content of the poem.
Second, examine the meaning of the topic.
To understand the theme and content of this poem, we must first examine the meaning of the title. For example, the title "Morning in Baidicheng" means "Morning" and "Morning" means "Starting from Baidicheng". The whole title means that the poet Li Bai "set out from Baidicheng in the morning". It is easier to understand the content of the whole poem by examining the meaning of the question.
Third, master the meaning of words.
Some words in ancient poetry have different meanings from those in modern Chinese. For example, the word "sit down" in the poem "Walking on the Mountain" now means "sit down" as a verb, but it is called "because" in the poem, which is very different from the present meaning.
Fourth, understand the meaning of poetry.
Understand the meaning of the words first, and then connect the words to make the meaning of the whole sentence. For example, it is easy to understand the meanings of "Chao", "Ci" and "Bai Di" before understanding the meaning of the whole sentence. The whole sentence can be interpreted as "I left Baidicheng in the colorful clouds in the morning".
Fifth, know how to write poetry.
There are many artistic techniques in the writing of ancient poetry, such as metaphor, exaggeration and contrast, to highlight the artistic conception of poetry. For example, in the poem "Sleeping in the Mountain Temple", "hands can pick up stars" is an exaggeration to write the height of the building; The sentence "I don't feel afraid to disturb people if I don't speak loudly" is to set off the height of the building with the rich imagination of not speaking loudly for fear of disturbing the gods in the sky.
6. Excavate the philosophy contained in the poem.
Learning ancient poetry, we should not only understand the content and significance of poetry, but also explore the profound philosophy contained in poetry. For example, in the poem "At the Heron Villa", we should not only understand the meaning of the poem "Up a flight of stairs, you will broaden your horizons by 300 miles", but also understand the philosophy that "you can only see far if you stand high".
Seven, experience the poet's feelings
On the basis of understanding poetry, we should also understand the thoughts and feelings expressed by poets in poetry. For example, in the poem Jueju, "The window contains the autumn snow in Xiling, and the boat is moored at the gate of Wan Li, Wu Dong", which not only shows the poet's broad-minded mind in the thatched cottage, but also expresses the author's yearning for a quiet life through the description of the beautiful scenery near the thatched cottage.
