Yan Yu lived in the late Southern Song Dynasty, never became an official in his life, and spent most of his time in seclusion in his hometown. However, when the Yuan army invaded and the country was in danger, he was still very concerned about current events. There are patriotic thoughts in his poems from time to time, and there are also many words of dissatisfaction with the shortcomings of the state affairs, such as Traveling to the North, A Journey to the Four Sides, and Six Thoughts. So Dai Fugu said that he was "worried about his country, Ling Du was old, and Chen Ziang was injured" (quoted from Wen Zhu's Biography of Yan Yu). His seven-character poems imitate Li Bai, and his five laws not only learn from Li, but also from Du Fu and Wei. But the main tendency is that Wang (Wei) and Meng (Haoran) dilute the ethereal all the way. His most important achievement is his poetic theory and his book Cang Shi Lang Hua. Creative achievements are far less than theoretical contributions, and poetic theorists have always pointed out the gap between these two aspects. The General Catalogue of Sikuquanshu says that his creation "aims at Tianbao, but its style can't be above the calendar" and "can only imitate the lingering sound of Wang Meng, but can't chase Du Li's grand view".
His poetry collection is called Mr. Canglang Yinjuan (or Canglang Yinjuan and Canglang Ji Lang), with 2 volumes, and * * * contains ancient and modern poems 146. There is a book "Two Poems of Qiaochuan" compiled by Shao Wuxu. Cang Hua is attached to the collection of poems.
Let's formally enter the appreciation of the text, "Beyond the colorful, endless journey, full of love". Endless reminds us of a sentence in the Book of Songs, "The white dew is frost; The so-called Iraqi people are on the water side, and their yearning and pursuit of water has become an eternal plot in the hearts of later poets. Because "the road is blocked and long", Iraqis can't see it, so it becomes eternal. This meaning refers not only to lovers, but also to family, friends, and sometimes the emperor, and more often to the ideals in the poet's heart. Only ideals really have this trait that people have been pursuing because they are out of reach. Yan Yu is very sensitive to the boundless realm caused by lush rivers, and he is a frequent visitor in his poems. In his Cloud Dream of Linchuan Meeting Jacky, there is such a sentence: "A thousand miles a day, lovesickness will last a lifetime. The waves in Dongting are late, and the birds are late. " They are all "travel feelings", thinking about their relatives in their hometown and friends in their travels. However, no matter how the object of missing changes, the medium of missing remains the same, and this is "Jia Jian". The "color" in the evening is not strong, which adds a sense of vastness and highlights the poet's confusion and doubt: "But I look at home and the twilight is fading? The author doesn't know where his hometown is, but he came to Chu Jiang to escape the chaos. It is more painful to have a home and not be able to go back than to be homeless. "Snow geese can break, and the crescent moon grows with the tide". The ancients liked to convey their helplessness and despair with broken images, such as "broken moon", "broken flute", "broken dream" and "heartbroken". Can Xue should have been good news, because the weather is getting warmer and spring is coming, but the Spring Festival is also a day for family reunion, but the poet can't go home, not only can't go home, but even the geese delivering books are cut off. The poet's hope and despair are all in it. The phrase "the new moon is born in the tide" makes us easily think of Zhang's "the bright moon on the sea is born in the tide", and the traces of its application are obvious. However, the antithesis of Can Xue Broken Dreams is extremely neat, and the poet's skill can be seen here. Like Jia Jian, the bright moon contains the image of lovesickness, and sending lovesickness with the bright moon is more common and frequent in ancient poems. "The bright moon is in the sky, and the horizon is * * * at this time". Why is it at this time? "I don't know how many people return every month, but how many people return every month?" Probably not! If you can ride home on the moon, the joy has already drowned the moon; "I'm worried about the bright moon. I'll go with the wind until I get crazy at night." Since the sound of geese is broken, I can't send books, so I can only make a wish on the moon and let it inquire about my hometown. "The sky is in the water, and the boat follows the tree." Looking from the ship, the sky is in the water, the water is connected with the sky, and the river has only one color, regardless of each other; The boat slowly rises and falls, and the branches slowly retreat. Heaven never shuts one door, water never shuts one door, and boats never shuts one door. When does this trip end? "I'm tired of listening to songs after leaving home for a few nights." On the day he left home, the poet thought in his mind every day. I'm at a loss when I think about it every day. The question "I stayed for several nights today" shows that the poet has been away from home for a long time, and that the poet is thinking about the frequency of going home. The sound of oars is like a sad song in the hearts of wanderers. It broke his heart and made him more tired. "At this time, the melancholy is extremely frequent, and the jiangbei road in the south of the Yangtze River is far away" (Yan Yu's "Looking at the Shangguan Wei Changwucheng at Night"). Although tired of listening to Acura, the way home is "all the way"; Even if you are tired of listening, you still have to listen for a long time.
