Ascending the Mountain uses the artistic technique of rendering to describe the environment and scenery in many ways, so as to highlight the image and strengthen the artistic effect.
the first four sentences describe the scenery, describing the experiences of climbing the mountain, closely following the seasonal characteristics of autumn, and depicting the empty and lonely scenery along the river. The first couplet is a local close-up, and the couplet is an overall vision. The last four sentences are lyrical, writing about the feeling of climbing the mountain, and expressing the sadness of being poor, old and sick, and living in another country around the author's own life experience.
The necklaces hurt their life experience, revealing the metaphorical, symbolic and suggestive meanings contained in the first four sentences; The tail couplet made another complaint and closed it with the self-image of depression and illness.
Tang Du Fu's "Ascending the Mountain" Original:
in a sharp gale from the wide sky apes are whimpering, birds are flying homeward over the clear lake and white sand. The endless trees rustle the fallen leaves, the Yangtze river is not expected to roll in the Pentium. Sad to Li autumn scenery, the perennial wanderer, life in the disease ridden today alone on the high platform. After going through hardships and bitter hatred, the white hair was full of hair, and the waning of the wine glass cup was suspended.
Translation:
It's very sad when the wind is strong and the sky is high, and there are birds hovering on the river with clear water and white sand. The endless trees are rustling with fallen leaves, and the endless Yangtze River is rolling in. Sad to autumn scenery, I feel that Wan Li has been wandering all the year round, and he is sick all his life, and today he is alone on the high platform. After all the hardships, the white hair was covered with temples, and the cup of sorrow was suspended.
Extended information
Creation background
This poem was written in the autumn of 767 AD (the second year of Tang Daizong Dali), when Du Fu was in Kuizhou. He wrote this when he was fifty-six. One day, he climbed the high platform outside the Baidi City in Kuizhou alone, and the bleak scenery of Qiu Jiang triggered the feeling that his life had fallen, which infiltrated his old illness and loneliness. Thus, there was this song "Ascending the Height", which is known as the "crown of seven laws".
Appreciation of Poetry
The words "in a sharp gale from the wide sky apes are whimpering", "urgency" and "sadness" are very substitutive, which makes people immediately enter the sad situation created by the author.
Then, the depressed mood overflowed in the chest, and there was nowhere to send it away. The poet concentrated it on the situation of birds, and wrote: birds are flying homeward over the clear lake and white sand, it constructed a cold and pale picture, and birds danced and circled in a bleak and desolate "Zhusha".
couplets show the typical characteristics of Kuizhou in autumn. The poet looked up at the boundless and rustling leaves and looked down at the endless and rolling river. While writing the scenery, he deeply expressed his feelings.
Finally, the perspectives of the neck couplet and the tail couplet return to the micro level and the poet himself. The neck couplet says: I have come three thousand miles away. Sad now with autumn, and with my hundred years of woe, I climb this height alone. "Sad autumn" has made people feel dejected, and "Sad autumn in Wan Li" is even more sad.
The word "Chang" even tells me that "Wan Li is sad for autumn" is always with me, and the sense of sadness is so strong that it makes people feel lonely and can't be dismissed. From autumn to people, the poet felt it, writing that he was old and sick, dragging his broken body to the high platform alone, and the feeling of being pregnant in a foreign land burst out, and his heart was depressed.
The couplet "ill fortune has laid a bitter frost on my temples, heart-ache and weariness are a thick dust in my wine", combined with four words "difficult", "difficult", "bitter" and "hate", shows the depth of the poet's inner pain and depression, which is full of sorrow and sorrow, so that his hair turns white, he hurts his body, he loses his time, his ambition is not rewarded, and he is sad for autumn.
