Bright Moon in Xijiang River, Looking at the Sea, Humble Room Inscription, A Park under the North Fort Mountain, Ten Analects of Confucius, A Story of Yueyang Tower, Lotus Falls, Silent Night and Market in the Sky. Xijiang Moon Night Tour in Huangsha Road (Xin Qiji) Song Dynasty

original text

The moon on the horizon rose to the top of the tree, scaring away the magpies perched on the branches. The cool evening breeze seems to have spread to cicadas in the distance. In the fragrance of rice and flowers, people talk about the harvest of a year, and frogs croak in their ears, as if in a bumper harvest year. In the old days, Maodian was near the forest, and the road turned to the stream bridge.

Note Xijiangyue: epigraph name. Huangsha: Huangshaling, in the west of Shangrao, Jiangxi. "Bright Moon" sentence: Su Shi's poem "Er Yun Jiang Ying Shu" says: "The bright moon surprises the magpie." Other branches: oblique branches. Society: Land Temple. In ancient times, there were community trees in the village, which were sacred places, so they were called community forests. See: Same: Now. The bright moon shines on the magpie on the oblique branches, making it fly uneasily, and there are waves of cicadas singing in the midnight breeze. The fragrance of rice and flowers brings the message of harvest, singing the songs of harvest, and frogs are linked together. Seven or eight stars, flashing in the distant horizon, two or three raindrops, sprinkled in front of the peak. Where did the cabin shop next to the social forest go? Turning the stone bridge by the stream, he suddenly appeared in front of him.

Make an appreciative comment

This article is the masterpiece of the author when he lived with the lake in Shangrao. It depicts the beautiful scenery of the rural summer night through its own specific feelings in The Yellow Sand Road at Night. The image is vivid, the feeling is cordial and delicate, and the brushwork is light and lively, which makes people feel realistic. This word embodies the diversity of Xin ci style. In the last movie, we used some familiar words, such as "bright moon" and "breeze". However, when they are combined with "parting surprise magpie" and "cicada singing in the third night", they form a deep artistic conception of paying equal attention to melody and sound, and moving and moving Xian Yi, and people even ignore the plainness and stability of these two sentences. "Moon" and "Surprising Magpie", "Wind" and "Singing Cicada" are not simple lists of things, but are intrinsically related and causal. In the third and fourth sentences, the author grasps the most distinctive things in the countryside on summer nights and further promotes them. Due to the limited visibility at night, the author's feelings are not mainly absorbed by the eyes, but sometimes captured by the organs of smell and hearing. "When the rice is fragrant, it is said that the harvest is good and the frog sounds", which is described from two aspects: smell and hearing. This is the main brain between the lines, and it is the root of the cheerful mood that covers the whole article. Although the last movie was about a sunny night, it was already raining. People with rich experience in rural life seem to be able to smell and hear the information that a shower is coming from the "rice fragrance" and "frog sound". The next pen turned and walked into the rain. But not in the rain, but before it. The first sentence is looking from a distance: "There are seven or eight stars in the sky", which means that there are dark clouds everywhere, and sparse starlight can be seen through the clouds. This realm is quite different from the atmosphere in the last movie. The second sentence; "It rains before Zhongshan at two or three o'clock" is the message that showers are coming and heavy rain is coming. Since the raindrops have been sprinkled in front of the mountain, they should be sprinkled behind it. The author's mood became a little anxious, so he naturally wanted to hurry up or find a shelter from the rain. The third and fourth sentences describe this kind of psychological activity: "In the old days, Maodian was at the edge of the forest, and the road turned to Xiqiao." Because the author usually travels in Huangsha Road, I know there is a thatched shop next to the Woods, but at this time, because it is night, I am flustered and suddenly disappeared. However, after crossing the stone bridge on the stream and following a bend, the old acquaintance's maodian suddenly appeared in front of us. How happy it should be! This word fully embodies the author's joy of harvest and his love for rural life.

Looking at the Sea and Cao Cao (Eastern Han Dynasty)

On the east coast, climb Jieshi Mountain to see the vast sea. The sea is so vast that the islands stand high on the sea. Trees and paraquat are very lush. Autumn wind makes trees make sad sounds, and the sea is surging. The movement of the sun and the moon seems to come from the vast ocean. A trip to the sun and the moon, if unexpected; Han is a talented star, if you take him by surprise. I am glad to use this poem to express my inner desire.

translate

Climb Jieshi Mountain to the east, and you can feel the sea. How vast the sea is, and the mountain island stands high on the seaside. Trees and herbs are clustered together and are very lush. The autumn wind blows the trees and makes a sad sound, and the sea is rough. The movement of the sun and the moon seems to start from this vast ocean. The Milky Way is dotted with stars, as if it were born in this vast ocean. Fortunately, let's use poetry to express our thoughts.

Poetry appreciation

Judging from the genre of poetry, this is an ancient poem; In terms of expression, this is a lyric poem about the scenery. The words "Jieshi is in the east, looking at the sea" point out the positioning of "looking at the sea": the poet climbed to the top of Jieshi, with a broad vision and a panoramic view of the sea. The following ten descriptions are almost all derived from this. The word "Guan" plays a leading role in the whole article, which embodies the characteristics of this poem's open artistic conception and vigorous momentum. The first four lines describe the scene of the sea, which is dynamic and quiet. For example, "autumn wind is bleak and the waves are rough" and "what is the water like" describe dynamic scenery, while "trees are full of vegetation" and "mountains and islands are full of scenery" describe static scenery. Guan Canghai, selected from Yuefu poems, is the first chapter of Yuefu poem Going Out in Summer. "The water is full of water, and the mountains and islands are all scenery" is the general impression of seeing the sea at the beginning, which is a bit like a thick line in the painting. In this rippling sea, the first thing you see is the towering mountain islands, which are dotted on the flat and wide sea, making the sea look magical and spectacular. These two sentences roughly outline the prospect of the sea, which will be described in depth at different levels below. "There are many trees and plenty of herbs. The autumn wind is bleak, and Hongbo surges. " The first two sentences specifically describe the mountain island: although the autumn wind is bleak and the vegetation is withered, the trees on the island are lush and the grass is flourishing, giving people a poetic feeling. The last two sentences are a further description of the sentence "What is water like?". Look carefully, the sea in the bleak autumn wind is actually a huge wave, surging and undulating. Here, although it is a typical autumn environment, it is not as bleak and desolate as autumn. Facing the bleak autumn wind, the author wrote the vastness and magnificence of the sea: in the bleak autumn wind, the sea is rough and meets the sky; The mountain island is tall and straight, with lush vegetation and no fading and sentimental artistic conception. This new realm and new style just reflect his "martyr" mind. "The trip to the sun and the moon, if unexpected; Xinghan is brilliant, if it is unexpected. " The previous description is observed from the plane of the sea. These four sentences are related to the boundless universe, showing the momentum and strength of the sea to the readers: the vast sea is connected with the sky, and the air is turbid; In front of this magnificent sea, the sun, the moon, the stars and the Han (the Milky Way) are all small, and their operation seems to be freely absorbed by the sea. The sea described by the poet here is not only the real scene in front of him, but also his own imagination and exaggeration, which shows the magnificent atmosphere of the universe and is full of the momentum of "the five mountains start from the square". This kind of "cage cover breathing atmosphere" is the artistic realm of the poet's "eyes" and "chest". From the heart, if the poet had no grand political ambition, no ambition to make contributions, and no optimistic attitude full of confidence in the future, he would never have written such a magnificent poetic scene.

In the spring of Li Qing's fourth year (1044), Teng was demoted as the satrap of Baling. In the second year, the political affairs were smooth, the people were happy, and all kinds of waste businesses flourished.

. So the Yueyang Tower was rebuilt, and the original scale was expanded, and the poems of celebrities and modern people in the Tang Dynasty were engraved on it. Teng Amethyst asked me to write an article about it. I think all the beautiful scenery in Baling County is on Dongting Lake. It is connected with the distant mountains and breathes the water of the Yangtze River. The water waves are vast, the current is big and urgent, and it is wide and boundless. The sun shines in the morning, the sky is overcast at night, and the scene is ever-changing. This is the magnificent scene of Yueyang Tower, which has been described in detail by predecessors. Then, most of the officials and poets who were demoted and moved here went straight to Wuxia in the north and Xiaoshui Xiangjiang in the south, and the feelings caused by seeing natural scenery would probably be different, right? Like continuous rain, when it is not clear for several months, the cold wind howls and the turbid waves rush to the sky; The sun, the moon and the stars cover their brilliance, and the mountains cover their appearance; Businessmen and passengers couldn't get through, the mast fell and the paddle was broken; As night fell, it was dark, only the tiger was roaring and the ape was crying sadly. When you climb Yueyang Tower, you will feel that you have left Beijing and missed your hometown. You are afraid that others will speak ill of you and ridicule you. Then you will look up and see the depressing and cold scene, and you will feel extremely sad. As for the spring breeze, when the sun is shining, the lake is calm, the sky is connected with the lake, and it is green and boundless; Sha Ou sometimes flies and sometimes stops, and beautiful fish swim around in the lake; The flowers and plants on the lakeshore and sandbar are rich in fragrance and lush in vegetation. Sometimes the smoke on the lake completely dissipates, the bright moonlight pours away, the fluctuating light shines with golden light, the quiet moon is like a jade that sinks into the water, and fishermen sing to each other. How can such fun be endless! When you climb the Yueyang Tower, you will feel relaxed and happy, and forget the glory and shame together. When you drink wine in the breeze, you will be really happy! Alas! I have explored the minds of people with noble morality in ancient times, which may be different from the above two manifestations. Why? Don't be happy or sad because of external things and your own gains and losses. Worried about Shu Ren in the high temple (facing the DPRK); Being in the wild rivers and lakes (in the wild) is worrying about you. In this way, (they) are also worried about becoming an official in the DPRK and retiring to the rivers and lakes for the people. So when will you be happy? Then you must say, "worry about the world first, and then enjoy the world." . Ah! Without this person, who would I be with? Written in Li Qing on September 15th, 6th (1046). Edit this paragraph comment.

Main idea

This narrative tells the whole story. By describing the scenery of Yueyang Tower and the different feelings of the poets who moved to the building after visiting it, they expressed their life attitude and political ambition of "worrying about the world first, and enjoying the world later".

theme

"Dongting is the water of the world, and Yueyang is the building of the world." When it comes to Yueyang Tower, people will naturally think of Fan Zhongyan, a famous minister throughout the ages, and The Story of Yueyang Tower, which shows Fan Zhongyan's broad mind, and praise his political ambition and attitude towards life. It can be said that people pay too much attention to Fan Zhongyan, and few people think of Teng, who has made great contributions. Not only self-encouragement, but also encouragement with friends.

Ailian in the Northern Song Dynasty called Zhou Dunyi.

original text

Flowers and aquatic plants on the land are lovely (fán). Tao Jinyuan clearly loves chrysanthemums. Since coming, the world has loved peony very much (some versions are "Sheng"). For the lotus that loves you alone, the mud does not touch, the lotus is clear, the lotus (lián) is not evil, straight through, not tendril (màn) is not branched, the fragrance is far away and clear, and it is graceful, so you can look at it from a distance without playing (xiè). To call chrysanthemum, the seclusion of flowers (y) is also; Peony, blooming with wealth; Lotus, the gentleman of flowers. Hey (y: and)! The love of chrysanthemums and flowers, Tao (Xi mǎn m?n) has also been heard. Who gave the lotus love? Peony love is suitable for all ages!

Translation:

There are many kinds of herbs and woody flowers on the water and land. Tao Yuanming only loves chrysanthemums in Jin Dynasty. Since Li in Tang Dynasty, people all over the world have loved peony very much. I only like lotus flowers that are not stained with mud, and they don't look seductive after being washed with clear water. Its stem is open (hollow) in the middle, its shape is straight, unconnected and unbranched, and the fragrance spreads farther and farther, the more beautiful it is. It stands straight and clean, and people can look at them from a distance, but they can't get close to it, and they can't play with it gently. In my opinion, chrysanthemum is a hermit in flowers; Peony is a rich person in flowers; Lotus is a noble flower. Alas! People who love chrysanthemums have rarely heard of them since Tao Yuanming. Who else likes lotus as much as I do? Of course, there are many people who love peony.

The work of Zhou Dunyi, a scholar in the Northern Song Dynasty, is an essay. In the eighth year of Renzong in the Northern Song Dynasty (1063), Zhou Dunyi, Shen Xiyan and Qian Tuo * * * traveled to Luo Yan, Yudu County, Jiangxi Province and carved stones with poems. Later, Shen Xiyan built a lotus pavilion in Lushan Mountain and asked Zhou Dunyi to write an inscription. Zhou Dunyi wrote "Ailian Shuo" as a gift, indicating that he "does not touch mud, but is not demon, straight through, and does not crawl; Aromatic and clear, graceful and pure; Can be seen from a distance but not ridiculous ... ". "Shuo" is one of the ancient styles.
