Du Fu
I heard that Dongting Lake is magnificent before, but today's wish has finally reached Yueyang Tower.
The vast lake tore Wu Chu apart, as if the sun, moon and stars were floating in the water.
There is no news from my friends or relatives. I am old and sick, drifting in a boat.
The battle of the north gate began again, and I cried through the railing.

In the third year of Dali (768), Du Fu left Kuizhou and went out to Jiangling (now west of Qianjiang County, Hubei Province). The situation is not satisfactory. In late autumn, he moved to the police station (now Hubei police station) 90 miles south of Jiangling, and originally planned to go to Chaisang (now Jiujiang, Jiangxi), but failed. This year, he entered Yueyang (now Yueyang, Hunan) and boarded Yueyang Tower.
This poem describes what the poet saw and felt when he went upstairs. The first couplet is happily going upstairs to fulfill the old wish; Zhuan Xu praised Dongting Lake for its magnificent scenery. The Necklace Association lamented the news of the sudden loss of relatives and friends, and he was old and sick without medical treatment; The poet at the end of the couplet looked at Qin Long in the north, fearing that there would be unrest. In his poems, the poet associates his personal fate with his worries about the country, and sets off his feelings about lonely life experiences with magnificent natural scenery. His artistic conception is grand and tragic, which is the most famous section of climbing Yueyang Tower in past dynasties.
Yueyang is the most spectacular place in the world, and the back of the building is covered with dams.
The vegetation is even south, in front of the abnormal railings in the rivers and lakes.
Gankun's "Everything is Gathered on the Temple" embarrassed courtiers for five years.
To write about the past, the wind is strong and my heart is at a loss.

Looking at Dongting Lake from afar —— addressed to Premier Zhang
meng haoran
The autumn water rises and almost blends with the shore, mixing water and sky with the sky.
Ozawa's water vapor transpiration on the cloud soil is white, and the waves seem to shake the whole Yueyang.
I'm going to cross the water to find a boat and paddle. It's a shame to return home in the sacred age.
Sitting around watching other people's hard river fishing can only envy the fish caught in the fish.
Zhang Jiuling, the Prime Minister of Zhang, is also a famous poet with official position and integrity. Meng Haoran wants to go into politics and realize his ideal. I hope someone can introduce him. This is the meaning of writing this poem to Zhang Jiuling before he went to Beijing to take the exam.
The first four sentences of the poem describe the magnificent scene and momentum of Dongting Lake, and the last four sentences are used to express their political enthusiasm and hope.
This is a dry poem. In the 21st year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (733), Meng Haoran traveled to Chang 'an and wrote this poem as a gift to Zhang Jiuling at that time. The purpose is to gain Zhang's appreciation and appointment, but only to maintain his own identity, writing so euphemistically, trying to annihilate the traces of the dry bow.
Autumn water is rising, and Dongting Lake is full in August, almost flush with the shore. Looking from a distance, water and sky are one color, and Dongting Lake is connected with the sky. In the first two sentences, Dongting Lake is very cheerful and muddy. Wang Yang is vast, connected with the sky, with lush flowers and trees, which can accommodate large and small rivers.
Three or four sentences about the lake. The sentence "steaming" is about the rich accumulation of lakes, as if the vast swamp area has been nourished by lakes, which makes it look so lush and lush. The word "wave shake" is placed on "Yueyang city", which sets off the turmoil of the surging lake and is also very imposing. In people's eyes, this lakeside city seems to crouch uneasily under its feet and become extremely small. These two sentences are called famous sentences describing Dongting Lake. But there are still differences between the two sentences: the first sentence uses a broad plane to set off the vastness of the lake, and the second sentence uses a narrow three-dimensional to reflect the momentum of the lake. Dongting Lake described by the poet is not only vast, but also full of vitality.
The following four sentences become lyrical. "I want to go there, but I can't find the boat" is triggered by the scenery in front of me. Facing the vast lake, the poet thought he was still in the wild, but no one took the lead in finding the way, just as he wanted to cross the lake without a boat. "I am more ashamed to be idle than you politicians" means that in this era of "enlightened" peace and prosperity, I am not willing to be idle and want to do something. These two sentences are a formal confession to Prime Minister Zhang, indicating that although he is a hermit at present, he is unwilling to do so. He still yearns for the official position, but he still can't find a way.
So let's go one step further and call on Prime Minister Zhang. "angler" refers to the person in power at that time, but it is actually for Prime Minister Zhang. These last two sentences mean: Mr. Zhang, who is in power, I admire you for coming out to preside over state affairs, but as an opposition person, I can't stay with you and work for you, so I can only admire you for nothing. In these words, the poet skillfully used the old saying that "it is better to retreat and build a net" ("Huai Nan Zi said Xun Lin"), which is another renovation; And "fishing" also happens to take care of the "lake", so there is no trace, but it is not difficult to understand his mood of asking for quotations.
As a dry poem, the most important thing is to write it properly and praise the other party for being measured and not losing his identity. The wording should be neither supercilious nor condescending, which is the first-class writing. This poem is tactful, unconventional and has its own artistic characteristics.

The day in Qingxi is over, and the clouds are full of mountains and shadows.
In front of the building, tourists complain about Qiu Meng, and the beautiful scenery on the lake is suspicious of nocturnal songs.
Sitting alone, the wind is high and the wind is urgent, and Pinghu is foggy.
In the end, the ship has to carry firewood and the sail has to worry about Bai Bo.

Du Fu, The Story of Climbing Yueyang Tower
I heard that Dongting Lake is magnificent before, but today's wish has finally reached Yueyang Tower.
The vast lake tore Wu Chu apart, as if the sun, moon and stars were floating in the water.
There is no news from my friends or relatives. I am old and sick, drifting in a boat.
The battle of the north gate began again, and I cried through the railing.
Admittedly, first of all, you must truly describe the strength of the mountain, the beauty of the scenery and the strangeness of the scenery, but if you can only do this, it is not enough to call it Gog. In addition to expressing the natural landscape, it is also necessary to melt into the poet's mind, write about the deep feelings given to tourists by specific scenic spots, and let the exotic feelings and magnificent talents soar together to achieve a blend of scenes. This is a masterpiece. Although the length of this poem by Lao Du is extremely short, it is full of verve. It combines the victory of lakes and mountains with the poet's inner sadness about how difficult the country is, resulting in Shen Xiong's tragic and superb artistic realm, which can almost be said to be an unparalleled swan song in the poem of climbing Yueyang Tower through the ages.
This poem was written by Du Fu when he left Kuizhou Gorge with his family at dusk and winter in the third year of Dali (768) and stayed in Yuezhou (now Yueyang City, Hunan Province). The first two sentences, that is, tell the purpose of going upstairs and write the joy of your long-cherished wish. Yesterday's News and Today's News connect two sentences describing the poet's actions with the concept of time, which makes the boarders' excitement beyond words. Parallel couplets, exaggerating what you saw when you went upstairs. And floating ray, which is the building used to describe the water potential of the vast Dongting Lake. Wu Chu refers to the old place of Wu Chu during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Generally speaking, Wu is in the east of Dongting Lake, Chu is in the west of the lake and around Hunan, so the land mentioned by the poet seems to be divided into two parts by this great lake. "Gankun" refers to heaven and earth, including the sun and the moon. Dongting Lake is so vast that the sky, the earth, the sun and the moon seem to float in it all day and night. Some people think it is too exaggerated to describe Dongting Lake in this way, just like writing about the sea instead of the lake (see Yu Shouzhen's "Detailed Explanation of 300 Tang Poems"). In fact, this comment is rather rigid. It should be noted that poetry, unlike scientific papers, allows exaggeration to fully express visual (or auditory) images, thus freely venting the author's interests and emotions. If you don't understand the essence of literature and take it seriously by the standards of pedants, then even the ocean can't be called "I can see the endless floating of heaven and earth", because even if the ocean is bigger than a lake, it is only one of the "dry Kun" after all! What's more, Lao Du's extravagance is caused by the magnificent scenery in front of him, and there are also precedents for literary exaggeration. Isn't it clear in "Water Mirror Bamboo Perfume" that Dongting "the lake is more than 500 miles wide and the sun and the moon can haunt it"!
The above four sentences have written what you saw and heard when you boarded the plane; The following four sentences are about the feeling of being born in boarding. However, the first four sentences are not just about scenery, not feelings, and the last four sentences are just about feelings, not scenery. The relationship between the two parts is that emotion is born from the scene, and the scene and emotion blend together to form an organic lyrical artistic conception. A few sentences touched the sadness of life experience because of the lakes and mountains, and wrote a full feeling of wandering alone and thinking about Wan Li's nostalgia. In 300 Poems of Tang Dynasty, retired scholars in Hengtang criticized that the sentence of "relative" inherited the sentence of "Wu Chu" and the sentence of "old illness" inherited the sentence of "Gankun". This is very insightful. At this time, Lao Du had to think of relatives and friends in the Middle East in Shu, so "Wu Chu" was associated with "relatives and friends". After he left the gorge, he lingered on the water for a long time, so when he saw the vast water surface where "I can see the endless floating of heaven and earth", he was associated with his miserable evening scene of "being lonely and sick". The sadness here is so organically combined with the vast scenery of the last four sentences. The two couplets in the middle, the first one focuses on the scenery, and the second one focuses on the emotion, which are integrated into one, and set each other off with the vastness of the scenery and the pain of wandering alone, and the artistic effect is extremely wonderful. I can still feel the end of the couplet when I climb the stairs, but it has changed from a fortune to a national fortune, showing the noble character of the poet who never forgets the political situation and national conditions when he is personally unfortunate. At that time, when Tubo invaded, the northwest frontier was restless. I am not crying for my personal life, but for the national crisis. This ending gives the whole article a higher level and a higher style. The feelings expressed in the whole poem are lonely and depressing, but the scenery depicted is magnificent. From the magnificent scenery, we can see that Lao Du has the second highest mind, and he will never be depressed because of his wandering life. This is the admirable place of "poet sage"!
