Being in a foreign land, who is the author who misses his family twice during the festive season?
"One is a stranger in a foreign land, and he misses his relatives twice during the festive season" comes from the first sentence or two of the ancient poem "I miss my Shandong brothers when I live in a mountain holiday" written by the poet Wang Wei in the Tang Dynasty. The full text is as follows: \x0d\ When a person is a stranger in a foreign land, he misses his family more often during the festive season. \x0d\ I know from a distance where my brother climbed, and there is one person missing from the dogwood. \ x0d \ x0d \ Wang Wei (70 1-76 1), Han nationality, originally from Qixian County, Shanxi Province, was a poet in the Tang Dynasty, and his nickname was "Shi Fo". There are more than 400 poems today. Wang Wei is well versed in Buddhism. Buddhism has a Vimalakīrti classic, which was told by Vimalakīrti to his disciples. Wang Wei admired it, so he called himself Wei, with the word "Momo". Wang Wei's poems, paintings and calligraphy are all famous and versatile. Music is also very proficient. Greatly influenced by Zen. \x0d\ in poetry, there are written materials written by him at the age of fifteen, seventeen and eighteen. It can be seen that he was already a famous poet when he was a teenager. This is rare among poets. In the aristocratic hereditary society at that time, a versatile person would naturally be appreciated by Wei. So, at the age of twenty-one, he was admitted to Jinshi. \x0d\ Wang Wei had positive political ambitions in his early years, hoping to make great achievements. Later, the political situation changed, and he gradually became depressed, fasting and chanting Buddha. In his forties, he deliberately built a villa in Wangchuan, Lantian County, southeast of Chang 'an, and lived a semi-official and semi-secluded life on Zhong Nanshan Mountain. A Message from a Farewell to Wangchuan is a chapter in the poet's seclusion life. Its main content is "expressing ambition", which expresses the poet's desire to stay away from the secular and continue to live in seclusion. The scenery in the poem is not deliberately laid out, natural and fresh, as if it is handy, and the distant place is self-evident and has profound connotations. Wang Wei's achievements in poetry are various, including frontier poems, landscape poems, metrical poems and quatrains.
