Wang Wei's "Farewell" uses the Zen method to write poetry, which is full of Zen master's wit. This method of conveying deep meaning through intuition, suggestion, metaphor, and symbol was absorbed in the creation of this poem. The highlight of this poem is that he condenses his complex inner world feelings into the picture of "when the white clouds are endless", thereby achieving the artistic effect of "holding a flower and smiling, it is self-evident", and endless food for thought. . The author didn't say it, but we can see from the author's hope that the old friend will come back next year in the spring when the flowers are blooming. The relationship between the author and the old friend is very sincere. Readers can also understand the farewell scene. Touching. But we also believe that old friends will definitely come.
When most people write farewell, they start from the word "send off" and focus on describing the scene of farewell. However, Wang Wei's poem takes a unique approach and starts directly after farewell. "Send off", telling everyone at the beginning that the farewell has been completed, and the scene during the farewell and the reluctance to say goodbye are not allowed to be "seen" by you. In fact, Wang Wei is asking himself. The Wangsun are a group of idle and declining nobles, somewhat marginalized. Wang Wei lives a semi-official and semi-hidden life. He has a similar status and similar state of mind to them. Maybe he is just asking himself whether he wants to go back next year. Go to work, or stay and continue to live in seclusion?
"In the mountains" tells people that the person seeing him off is a hermit, or a noble person who temporarily lives in seclusion here. He has withdrawn from Vanity Fair due to various reasons, or has never been involved in Vanity Fair. He just "survives" by himself. In troubled times, he maintains his inner peace and moral integrity and has no other aspirations. The well-known line in "Send Yuan Er Envoy to Anxi" is "I urge you to drink another glass of wine. There will be no old friends when you leave Yangguan in the west." ", "Only lovesickness is like the spring scenery in "Sending Shen Zi back to Jiangdong", "Only lovesickness is like spring, sending you back from the south to the north of the Yangtze River", "How lonely are the mountains and rivers, looking at the towel for a long time", etc. Although it is said to be a new perspective, It is just a piece of wisdom, and among his own farewell poems, it is not the best.
