Brief introduction of the author

Li Bai (70 1-762), born in 70 1, Han nationality, 6' 6 ",born in Taibai, whose real name is Qinglian Jushi, a native of Jiangyou, Sichuan, was a great romantic poet in Tang Dynasty. His poetic style is bold and elegant, with rich imagination, fluent and natural language and harmonious temperament. He is good at absorbing nutrients from folk songs and myths, forming his unique magnificent and gorgeous colors, which is the new peak of active romantic poetry since Qu Yuan. He and Du Fu are also called "Da Du Li", and he is one of the greatest poets in China history, also known as "Poet Fairy". Li Bai's ancestral home is in Longxi (now Ji Cheng Township, Jingning County, Gansu Province) Ji Cheng. At the end of Sui Dynasty, he moved to Broken Leaf City in Central Asia (now near tokmak in northern Kyrgyzstan), where Li Bai was born. At the age of five, his family moved to Zhangming County, Mianzhou (now Jiangyou, Sichuan). At the age of twenty, he left Sichuan alone and began to wander widely, reaching Xiangjiang River in Dongting in the south and wuyue in the east, and living in Anlu (now Anlu City, Hubei Province). He traveled around, hoping to make friends and pay homage to celebrities, so as to get an introduction, climb high in one fell swoop and realize his political ideals and ambitions. However, after ten years of wandering, I have accomplished nothing. Continue to go north to Taiyuan and Chang 'an, east to Qi and Lu, and live in Rencheng, Shandong (now Jining, Shandong). At this time, he has made many celebrities and created a lot of excellent poems, which are famous all over the world. In the early years of Tianbao, on the recommendation of Taoist Wu Renyun, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty called him to Beijing and ordered him to worship the Hanlin. Soon, due to the remorse of the dignitaries, he was driven out of Beijing in Tianbao 34 (AD 744 or 745). Since then, he has been wandering in Jiang and Huai, and his thoughts are extremely boring. In the winter of the 14th year of Tianbao (AD 755), An Lushan rebelled. At this time, he lived in seclusion in Lushan Mountain, which coincided with the great army of Wang Yong and invited Li Bai down the mountain to enter the shogunate. Later, Li Lin rebelled against Su Zong and was eliminated. Li Bai was implicated and sentenced to exile in Yelang (now Guizhou Province). He was pardoned and released halfway from Xunyang (now Jiujiang, Jiangxi) to Xuancheng (now Xuancheng, Anhui). In the first year of Baoying (AD 762), Dai Zong died in dangtu county, Anhui. Li Bai lived in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. He had the progressive ideal of "helping the poor" and "settling down in peace", and he struggled to realize this ideal all his life. A large number of his poems not only reflected the prosperity of that era, but also exposed and criticized the debauchery and corruption of the ruling group, showing the positive spirit of despising the powerful, resisting the traditional bondage and pursuing freedom and ideals. In art, his poems are novel in imagination, strong in emotion, magnificent in artistic conception and fresh and lively in language, forming a bold artistic style and reaching the peak of positive romantic poetry in ancient China. There are more than 900 poems, including Li Taibai's poems. His poems are rich in imagination, unique in conception, magnificent and bold in style, and he is a representative figure of romantic poetry in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Looking up at the bright moon in the sky, I can't help but bow my head and meditate, missing my hometown more and more.

The "bed" shines so brightly at the foot of my bed.

New classroom composition

Some scholars have written an article to verify. Retired teachers reinterpreted Li Bai's "The Foot of My Bed is So Bright", and Shi Cheng, director of China Educators Association, published the research results in a paper, and also created "Poetic Map of Thinking on a Quiet Night".

Debate on the definition of "bed"

One solution: the bed Li Bai said is not a bed for sleeping, but Mazar, which was called "Hu bed" in ancient times. The doors in the Tang Dynasty were small wooden doors, which were opaque and had small windows. It is impossible for the moon to enter the room, especially after the window is pasted with paper. Therefore, this song "Silent Night Thinking" is actually sitting in the yard, not indoors as everyone always thought. Ma Weidou also used Li Bai's Long March to prove this point. "My hair has just covered my forehead. I am picking flowers and paying money at my door. At this time, you, my lover, are riding a bamboo horse, trotting around and throwing green plums." The little girl sat at the door with a small bench, and the little boy rode a bamboo horse around the girl. "Mother heard this, and the mallet bed flew into a rage."-Peacock Flying Southeast, Han Yuefu, etc. So the "bed" in the article is not a bed for sleeping, but a stool. "There is a big bed in the room, and the little boy is wandering around the little girl very vaguely. This is not Li Bai's original intention."

The second solution: "bed" is the general term for "window"

Three solutions: it is more reasonable to use "bed" as well as well edge and well railing here. The reason for this is the following:

1, China's ancient windows have not been glazed. In order to keep out the wind and cold, people usually cover the windows with a layer of paper. This can be seen in some martial arts films. In the dark night, some Jianghu knights dipped their fingers in saliva and gently poked a hole in enough paper ... Can the moon pass through enough paper and sprinkle a silvery white frosty moonlight on the ground in front of the bed?

2. If the windows are not covered with enough paper, but the ancient windows generally have panes, the moonlight will only leave jagged spots on the ground in front of the bed through such panes, and will not form a large moonlight, which may make the poet "Is there frost already?" Difficult.

If the poet lives in a simple house, the window is open and there is no pane. However, in ancient times, people usually placed beds against the north wall of houses. When a poet lies in bed, he can't see the bright moon, only the roof. Of course, he can't bow his head.

4. If the bed is placed next to the south wall and window. The title of the poem is "Thinking of a Quiet Night", which shows that it should be dead of night at this time, and the moon will reach the zenith. The poet can see the bright moon without looking up when lying in bed; And depending on the angle of the moonlight, it may shine on the bed instead of in front of it.

The poet stays up late at night. Does he light a lamp? If you light a lamp, I'm afraid the moonlight won't be as white as the silver frost in front of the bed.

6. If the poet can't sleep at night, he doesn't light a lamp or lie in bed, but stands at the window and looks out. At this time, if the poet looks up at the moon: first, because the moon has reached noon, I am afraid that the poet can only see the eaves; Secondly, the poet stands at the window and must leave a figure behind him. Is there enough moonlight in front of the bed to make the poet "will it be frosted already?" ?

7. There is a flat open space around the well railing for people to squat and wash clothes and vegetables. The poet can't sleep at night and walks alone in the open space near the moon. At such a well, the poet can easily look up. I found that it was moonlight and sank again, and I suddenly remembered home. The silver moonlight sprinkled on such an open ground naturally made him feel "will it have frosted?" . More importantly, "well" was synonymous with hometown in ancient times. In ancient times, for the convenience of life, people always liked to live around water. There are always residents around the well, so people call it Hahu Well. The alley leading to the well is called the market (Wangfujing in Beijing is named after the well). This can be seen from the ancient characters of Wells. Little people who work by the well are called street people. Children like to play by the well. In Chang Gan, it is natural for a boy to "be you, my love, riding a bamboo horse, trotting around and throwing green plums". Rural people also like to live around the well, men talk by the water, and village women wash clothes and vegetables in the open space around the well (Gujing in the primary school Chinese textbook published by People's Education Publishing House also reflects this situation); On summer nights, under the moon, people also like to enjoy the cool and chat by the well. Well became the place of public activities and the center of information release at that time. Well has gradually become synonymous with hometown and village. Otherwise, the idiom "leaving one's hometown" cannot mean "leaving one's hometown". The poet looked up at the full moon in the sky and looked down at such a well with the cultural connotation of his hometown. Maybe he remembered the lively scene by the old well in his hometown and the joy of playing by the well. I think poets with rich imagination and strong association can easily miss their hometown when they look at the well they can learn from. Look at the bed as bedding for fear that it will remind the poet of his dream, not his hometown.

Four explanations: The original meaning of the bed refuting the above viewpoint is the device for sitting and lying. The Book of Songs, Xiaoya Four Cadres, and Yi Wang Pi's Single Note also include the bed for sleeping. Say, talk about paving the way.

About Tang poetry, many people talk about bed. At least some people in the Tang Dynasty slept in beds. How can they "live on the floor"? For example, in the well-known "Song of Du Fu Caotang's Autumn Wind Breaking", "The cloth has been cold and iron for many years, and the pride is lying empty. There is no dry place in the bedside table, and the feet are numb with rain. Since the funeral, I have had less sleep, and I have been wet for a long night! " ; "Six-foot rattan bed" in Bai Juyi's poem "Little Platform"; "Bai Juyi Bamboo Window" "It's hot as soup in dog days. Only under this bamboo window, I undress behind my back. Thin gauze, a towel and a six-foot bed. No guests are quiet, and the night wind is cold. " ; "Three pieces of Li Bai's Zaqu Sauvignon Blanc" "Embroidery in bed can't be rolled, and it will be fragrant after three years." ; "Li Qiao Bed" "It is said that there is an elephant bed that was once used by kings. Tortoise shell and seven treasures of coral makeup. The osmanthus smoke contains white floating, and the orchid blows agarwood. I would like to bring the night and the autumn moon. " "Three Poems of Bai Juyi's Swallow House" "The moon is frosty in front of the window, and my bed is cold. On the frosty moonlit night in Yanzilou, Qiu Lai is only one person long. " Tang poetry also talks about beds of various colors, such as beds, gums, jade beds, gold beds and turtle beds. There are quilts, tents and pillows, which are used for sleeping. He Yun "The word bed didn't exist at that time"? Let's talk about windows, such as the poem "Bai Juyi Bamboo Window": "In early February this spring, Buju Xinchang. Make a stable in your spare time and camp together first. If you don't paste the paper when you open the window, you won't grow bamboo. Under the north eaves, the window is equivalent to bamboo. " ; "King Robin's Classic" says: "The treasure covers the golden saddle, and the blue window embroiders the jade dragon. Embroidered column title powder wall, Jin Mingyu Wang Housheng. " ; "Four Poems of Du Fu" also said that "the window contains the snow in Xiling, and the boat is moored at the gate of Wan Li, Wu Dong." "Mao Wenxi's screen window hate" has: "In the back garden, look at the flowers, the fragrant wind blows, and embroider the Golden Gate. Looking at the screen window on the moon, I hate Yiyi. " The styles of windows in the Tang Dynasty are large and small, high and low, not just "straight lattice windows on the wall or urn windows set in high places". In fact, Li Bai's poem "The foot of the bed is so bright" is about the moon in front of the bed. There are too many poems about "the bright moon before bed" in Tang poetry. Which can be changed into a well site? Why do people say mine field instead of "bed"? It turned out that they suspected that people in the Tang Dynasty slept without beds. The house built by Bai Juyi in Xinchang has windows almost as high as bamboo. Why can't you "see things in the yard" through the window? This is really ridiculous! There are also many poems about the bright moon shining on the bed in the Tang Dynasty. For example:

Yuan Zhen chun yue

Although the spring moon is bright, there will always be haze. Unlike the colors of autumn and winter, it is cold and ice-cold.

The fiber powder is empty, and the smoke cage is half a bed. The shadows in the dusk, the rest of the rainbow beams.

Yuan Zhen's night leisure

I feel extremely dreamless and my soul is easily shocked. The wind curtain is half hooked, and the autumn moon is full of beds.

Look down at the steps and sit thoughtfully by the tree. Solitary piano in the box, sonic boom broken string.

Wei Zhuang qingpingle

I dreamed that half a bed was leaning against the moon, and the wind in the small window touched the piano.

Since the moonlight can shine on the bed, people lying in bed can certainly see the moon outside. What's so strange about this? It has also been suggested that the bed here refers to the "Hu bed", that is, the chair. According to this statement, the poet is sitting in a chair in the yard watching the bright moon and missing his hometown. "Hu Chuang" was introduced into the Central Plains from the northern minority areas at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, so it was called "Hu". The Sui Dynasty renamed it "crossing the bed" and the Tang Dynasty renamed it "rope bed". Hu Chuang is a foldable portable chair, which consists of eight wooden sticks. The sitting surface is connected with brown rope to make the bed surface, which can be stable when the bed feet are oblique. Hu bed can be folded, which is convenient to take and put. After the Han Dynasty, there were many records about using Hu bed for field investigation and field work, which were widely used after Wei and Jin Dynasties. "Han Yingshao, Customs, Yi Tong, Lost Literature and Magic": "Lingdi likes Khufu, Zhang Hu, Hu Chuang, and the capital fights for it." Song Gu Tao Qing Louis Fang Chen Gate: "Hu Chuangshi closed his foot, put a toilet for him to sit on, and when he turned back, he had to shrink, which was not heavy. According to legend, the Ming emperor was very lucky. He is a minister or waiting for a letter to climb the mountain, but he can't stand still. He wants to rest, so he is very creative. At that time, he was called' Happy Seat'. " Song Cheng Dachang Yan (Volume 14): "At the turn of the century, Lu came to make the name" Hu Chuang ",and Huan Yi dismounted and took the flute to shine on Hu Chuang. Emperor Yangdi once used the name "Hu" and later renamed it "Jiao Chuang". In December of the second year of Changqing, Tang Muzong made a rope bed, also called a rope bed, when he met the ministers in Chenzi Hall. " "Eight Records of Gao Minglian's Zunsheng" records: "The rattan bed is made of rattan, with a backrest on the back and movable legs on the back, which is convenient for height adjustment." "Qing Ruan Kui talks about tea in Ke Hua": "Two pieces of wood are called the apex. On Hu's bed, it's just the top spot. If you think about it carefully, the poet's feeling when sitting in a chair should be "moonlight in front of him, is there frost already?" ! Moreover, the things mentioned by poets in the Tang Dynasty are generally not called "beds" alone, not "Hu beds" or "rope beds". The two concepts of "bed" and "Hu bed" are clearly divided. There are nearly 900 poems about "bed" in the whole Tang poetry, almost all of which are like this. For example:

There is a boat on the pool in the five poems of Bai Juyi's Yongxing.

There is a boat on the pool, and there is a bed in the boat. There is new wine in front of the bed, so you can taste it alone.

Smoked like spring breeze, bright like autumn water.

Li Bai's cursive lines

My teacher was drunk, so he leaned on the rope bed and swept thousands of sheets in a short while.

Cui Rong joined the army.

Vaguely, Zhang Shu was fascinated by Hsinchu, as if Hu Chuang had met Sang. When I heard about a hussars in Linhai, I had a chance to find the river by myself.
