1, reason explanation
Bai Juyi is a famous poet and writer with far-reaching influence in the history of China literature. He is known as "the magical poet" and "the king of poets". In the second year of Tang Changqing (822), Bai Juyi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, disliked the bigwigs in Chang 'an and asked to send Tang Muzong to Hangzhou to be the secretariat.
2. Hangzhou secretariat's measures during his tenure.
When he was in charge of the secretariat of Hangzhou, he saw that six ancient wells in Hangzhou were in disrepair for a long time, so he presided over the dredging of these six wells to solve the drinking water problem of Hangzhou people. Seeing that the West Lake has silted up farmland and dried up, it built a dam to store water, so as to facilitate irrigation and reduce the harm caused by drought, and made the "Qiantang Lake Stone Record", which engraved the policies, methods and matters needing attention for the lake management for future generations to know.
This has had a great impact on the management of lakes in Hangzhou. Before Bai Juyi left office, he left an official salary in the state treasury as a turnover fund for the official salary of Hangzhou later, and then supplemented the original value afterwards. When the fund operated to Huang Chao Rebellion, Huang Chao arrived in Hangzhou, the documents were burned and the fund disappeared.
Characteristics of personal works:
1, subject
Theme concentration is one of the artistic features of Bai Juyi's satirical poems. He usually only chooses the most typical thing, highlighting a theme, "a sad thing", and the theme is very clear. In order to convey the theme to readers more clearly, you can add a small preface under the title of the poem to point out the theme, or "show your will" to highlight the theme. He can grasp the characteristics of characters and draw a vivid and vivid image by drawing.
2. Poetry theory
Bai Juyi's thought integrates Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, mainly Confucianism. Mencius said that "being rich will help the world, and being poor will be immune to it" is the creed he followed all his life. His ambition of "helping the world and the people" is mainly based on Confucian benevolent policies, including the theory of Huang Lao, the technique of treating filial piety and the method of applying Korea; His mind of "being alone" absorbed Lao Zi and Zhuang Zi's ideas of contentment, uniformity and freedom.
The two are roughly bounded by Bai's demotion of Jiangzhou Sima. Bai Juyi not only left nearly 3,000 poems, but also put forward a whole set of poetic theories. He compared poetry to a fruit tree and put forward the viewpoint of "root feeling, Miao character, Watson and true meaning" (nine books at the end of Yuan Dynasty). He believes that "emotion" is the fundamental condition of poetry, and "those who move people should not care about emotion first" ("Nine Books with the Same Yuan").
