The Northern and Southern Dynasties was a turbulent period in the history of China, which restricted the development of culture and art.. However, there are still many points worthy of attention in the aesthetic thought and artistic practice of this period.
The following are the ten most beautiful poems I selected in the Southern and Northern Dynasties:
At Helen's cabin.
The sun sets slowly near the western hills, and the Yellow River flows into the East China Sea. The poem "Climbing to the Top and Looking Far" depicts the magnificent scene of climbing to the top and looking far, and expresses a positive spirit. Among them, the famous phrase "but you broaden your horizons by 300 miles and go up a flight of stairs" has become the motto of later generations to encourage people to keep pursuing progress and constantly surpass themselves.
Back to my hometown
Teenagers leave home, old people return, and the local accent does not change. When children meet strangers, they will smile and ask where the guests are from. This poem expresses the mood of a wanderer who has been away from home for many years, and reveals the theme of ruthless years and changes in the world. One sentence, "the local accent has not changed", vividly shows the wanderer's attachment to his hometown.
Changgexing
The trees in the garden are lush, and the crystal dew rises in the sun. Spring fills the earth with hope, and everything presents a scene of prosperity. I am always afraid that when the cold autumn comes, the trees in Ye Er will turn yellow and the grass will wither. The river runs to the sea, and when will it return to the west? A lazy youth, a lousy age.
Taking the sunflower in the garden as a metaphor, this poem expounds the truth that time flies and time waits for no man, and encourages people to cherish their youth and strive to pursue their dreams and goals. Among them, the phrase "Young people don't work hard, but old people are sad" has become a famous saying throughout the ages.
Look at Lushan Waterfall
The purple mist is illuminated by sunlight, and the waterfall hangs in front of the mountain. On the high cliff, it seems to be thousands of feet high, which makes people think that the Milky Way has fallen from heaven to earth. This poem describes the magnificent scene of Lushan Waterfall, showing the power of nature and the vitality of life. Among them, the famous phrase "Flying to the Three thousands of feet, Doubting that the Milky Way has set for nine days" has become a classic vocabulary to describe the natural landscape in later generations.
Goose song
Goose Goose, Xiang Tiange. White feathers, floating in green water; The red soles of the feet stir the clear water. This poem was written when Luo was seven years old. It describes the beauty and free swimming of wild geese. In the poem, "Xiang Tiange" and "White hair floating green water, red palm clearing waves" vividly present the image of goose to readers, showing the author's keen observation and rich imagination.
Chunjiang moonlit night
Lian Haiping is in the spring tide, and the bright moon on the sea is born in the tide. I drift thousands of miles, where there is no moon by the river! The river flows around Fangdian, and the moonlight shines on the flower forest like graupel. Frost flows in the air, you can't fly, but you can't see the white sand on the pavilion. There is no dust in the sky on the river, and there is a lonely moon in the sky. Who saw the moon by the river for the first time? When did Jiang Yue take the photo at the beginning of the year? Life is endless from generation to generation, and Jiang Yue is similar year after year. I don't know who Jiang Yue is waiting for, but I see the Yangtze River delivering water.
One of Zhang's long narrative poems depicts the moonlight flowers on the riverside, which incorporates profound life philosophy and emotional experience. The poem "Lian Haiping is in the spring tide, and the bright moon on the sea is born in the tide" and "Life is endless, and the river and the moon are similar year after year", which is full of aesthetic feeling and gives people deep thought.
Youzhou Tower.
No one can see the ancient wisdom of the ancient king, only those wise men who can't see the afterlife can see it. Only the boundless universe, boundless, can't stop the tears full of sadness. This is a poem by Chen Ziang, which expresses his inner loneliness and sadness. The theme of this poem is "before me, where were those lost times?" Behind me, are the future generations? " It expresses the author's loneliness in the long river of history and his feelings about the passage of time and the shortness of life.
Thoughts?in?the?Still?of?the?Night
The foot of my bed is shining so brightly. Is there frost already? I looked up at the moon and looked down, feeling nostalgic. This is a short poem by Li Bai describing homesickness. "The foot of my bed is shining so brightly. Is it frosty already?" In two sentences, through vivid metaphor and image description, the author's longing for his hometown is vividly expressed.
Fu De Gu Caoyuan Farewell
The long grass is so lush that the withered grass will thicken the color of the grass every autumn and winter. Wildfire can't burn it out, but the spring breeze can revive it. Weeds and wild flowers are all over the ancient road, and the end of the grass in the sun is your journey. I once again sent my bosom friend, and the thick grass represented my deep affection. This is Bai Juyi's farewell poem.
The poem "The grass is boundless and the four seasons come and go" expresses the strength of life and feelings of parting by describing the rise and fall of nature. The words "wildfire never quite consumes them, the spring breeze is blowing high" express the author's good wishes for his friends' future life and his helplessness and regret at parting.
Farewell to Meng Haoran on the way to Yangzhou from Yellow Crane Tower.
Old friends frequently waved to me, bid farewell to the Yellow Crane Tower, and traveled to Yangzhou in this beautiful spring filled with catkins and flowers. My friend's sail shadow faded away and disappeared at the end of the blue sky, only seeing the first line of the Yangtze River and heading for the distant horizon. This is another farewell poem by Li Bai, which describes the author's scene and feelings when he bid farewell to his friends in the Yellow Crane Tower. The sentence "I can only see the Yangtze River flowing in the sky" vividly expresses the author's farewell to his friends and good wishes for his future life.
