Birds fly out of sight in the mountains, and no one can be seen on all the roads. On a lonely boat on the river, an old man wearing a bamboo hat was fishing alone on the cold river.
Introduction to Jiang Xue:
Jiang Xue is a five-character quatrain written by Liu Zongyuan, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, in Yongzhou. Typical generalizations are used in the poem, and thousands of trails in Qianshan Mountain and the extinction of people and birds, which can best represent the cold in Shan Ye, are chosen to describe the scene of mountains closed by heavy snow and freezing in the cold.
Then draw an image of a fisherman fishing alone in the cold river to express the poet's unyielding and deep loneliness after being hit. The whole poem is unique in conception, concise in language and rich in meaning.
Creative background:
Jiang Xue was written during Liu Zongyuan's exile in Yongzhou (805-8 15). During Yongzhenyuan's reign (805), Liu Zongyuan participated in the Yongzhenguan reform movement initiated by Wang Group, and carried out political measures to suppress internal officials, control other provinces and safeguard national unity. However, due to the joint opposition of reactionary forces, the reform soon failed, and Liu Zongyuan was demoted to Yongzhou Sima.
After ten years in exile, I actually lived a "prisoner" life under control and house arrest. The oppression of the sinister environment did not crush him. Being at a political disadvantage, he expressed the value and ideal interest of life through his poems. This poem is one of the masterpieces.
