The ideological realm of Su Shi's ten-year view of life and death

Su Shi

Ten years of life and death are two boundless.

Never think, never forget.

A lonely grave thousands of miles away, desolate and nowhere to talk about.

Even if we don't know each other, our faces are dusty and our temples are frosty.

At night, I suddenly dreamed of going home, and the window of Xiao Xuan was being decorated.

Care for each other without words, only a thousand lines of tears

It is expected that the annual heartbroken place: moonlit night, short pine hill.

Appreciation of Su Shi's Ci

The "Mao Yi" year in the inscription refers to the eighth year of Xining, Song Shenzong (1075), and Su Dongpo was appointed as Mizhou (now Zhucheng, Shandong Province) at the age of forty.

On the 20th night of the first month, he dreamed of his beloved wife, Wang Fu, and wrote the eulogy of "The Day is Full of Sound, When Spring is Full of Tears" (Chen Shidao).

Su Dongpo's first word is "Remembering Dreams", which clearly describes the days of dreaming. But in fact, only five sentences from the next film are recorded in the lyrics, and the others are sincere, simple, painful and touching lyrics. "Ten years of life and death are two boundless" where will you go, the dead are at a loss about the world, but so are the living and the dead, aren't they? Loving couples, once forever, ten years like one day. "If you don't think about it, you will never forget it." Although people are dead, the beautiful scenes of the past are unforgettable! It has been ten years since Wang Fu died. I think sixteen-year-old Wang Fu married nineteen-year-old Su Dongpo. Needless to say, the young couple are deeply affectionate, and it is even more rare for her to be generous and sensible.

In ten years, Dongpo was suppressed for opposing Wang Anshi's new law, and his mood was sad; After arriving in Michigan, he was busy with government affairs and had a hard time. How can he "ignore" his clever and understanding wife? The author combines "unexpected" with "unforgettable" and reveals his inner feelings truly and profoundly by using the tension between these two seemingly contradictory mentality. Year after year, day and night, although not always suspense, but never forget! Perhaps it was because of his deep yearning for his beloved wife, Wang Fu, that Dongpo continued to marry Wang Fu's cousin Wang Runzhi, who is said to have the charm of a cousin. On the tenth anniversary, in those touching days, the past suddenly came to my mind, and the pent-up emotional undercurrent suddenly opened like a floodgate, which was hard to stop. "A lonely grave thousands of miles away, nowhere to talk about bleak." Thinking of my beloved wife's untimely death in China thousands of miles away, I feel sad and have nowhere to go. In fact, even if the grave is near and has experienced life and death, can it be dim? This is an idiotic and sentimental language that obliterates the boundary between life and death, which is particularly touching. "Even if you don't know each other, you are covered with dust and your temples are like frost." These three short sentences confuse reality and dreams, and contain personal troubles after death, including old age and decline. At this time, he was only forty years old, and his temples were like frost. She has been dead for ten years, and I'm afraid she won't recognize me when we meet. This impossible assumption, with deep feelings and sadness, shows deep nostalgia for my lover and also reflects my feelings of life experience.

It's like a dream, but it seems real. In the meantime, I'm afraid the truth is not just obeying my father's orders, but my life experience. Su Dongpo once recorded his father's instruction "Women share weal and woe, never forget" in the inscription on the grave of his late wife Wang Shi. In the author's heart, the dream is a kind of suffering and affection that has never been thought about or forgotten.

The first five sentences of the next movie begin to "remember dreams". "Dreaming Suddenly Going Home at Night" is a narrative about my sudden return to my hometown in my dream, where they spent their sweet time. The small room of "Xiao Xuan Window, Dressing" is kind and familiar, and her appearance is vaguely that year, and she is dressing. When husband and wife meet, there is no intimacy of reunion after a long separation, but "nothing to care for, only a thousand tears"! "Silence", including thousands of words, shows the pain of "telling more in silence than they tell in their voices". Where should I start? A dream pulls back to the past, melts the true feelings into the dream, and makes this dream feel infinitely bleak. "It is expected to be heartbroken every year; Moonlight night, dwarf matsuoka. " The author expects that lovers who are buried underground will be heartbroken in order to cherish the world and to be reluctant to part with their loved ones every year. Put yourself in the other's shoes, the author assumes that the state of mind of his deceased wife on a lonely "bright moon" night is well-intentioned. This infatuation is really earth-shattering.

The following is Baidu Encyclopedia: Jiang Chengzi Mao Yi's Twenty Dreams in the First Month (Northern Song Dynasty). Su Shi lived and died for ten years, never forgetting. A lonely grave thousands of miles away, desolate and nowhere to talk about. Ginger [1] Even if we meet, we should not know that our faces are covered with dust and our temples are like frost. At night, I suddenly dreamed of going home, and the window of Xiao Xuan was being decorated. Care for each other without words, only tears thousands of lines are expected to break the heart, and the moon and night are short and loose. This is a eulogy. The author vividly reflects his sincere feelings and deep nostalgia for his dead wife by combining his unfortunate experience and infinite feelings in his political career in the past ten years. In the history of China literature, there have been "Mourning Poems" since the Book of Songs. Until Su Shi in the Northern Song Dynasty, Pan Yue in the Western Jin Dynasty and Yuan Zhen in the Middle Tang Dynasty were the most famous mourning poems (words). In the late Tang Dynasty, Li Shangyin also wrote a play on Shu. Their works are sad and touching. Or write that after his lover left, he was lonely and sad, and he was sad to see the relics; Or the writer is now extremely rich, recalling the past and lamenting that the world is cold and the fate is impermanent; Or express your profound thoughts and memories with vague words and colors, which is heartbreaking to read. Su Shi's Jiangchengzi is also a memorial work. However, compared with predecessors, the expressive art of Dongpo's first words has its own characteristics. The first word is "dreaming", and the day of dreaming is clearly written. But although it is "Remembering Dreams", in fact, only the following five sentences are about remembering dreams, and the rest are all about expressing their feelings and telling their sadness. The writing is sincere and simple, painful and touching. When Su Dongpo was nineteen, he married Wang Fu, who was sixteen. Wang Fu is young, beautiful and very filial. They love each other deeply. Unfortunately, Wang Fu died at the age of 27. This is a great blow to Dongpo, and his inner and spiritual pain is self-evident. Su Shi said in the epitaph of his late wife Wang: "Ding Hai, the wife of Su Shi in Zhao County, died in the capital in May of the second year of Zhiping (1065). In Wu Jia in June, the funeral was held in Jingxi. At noon next June, he will be buried in the tomb of the first gentleman and first lady of Li Kelong, Anzhen Township, pengshan county, northeast of Yumei, eight steps northwest. " In a calm tone, it is extremely painful. In the eighth year of Xining (1075), Dongpo came to Mizhou. On the 20th day of the first month of this year, he dreamed of his beloved wife, Wang, and wrote this eulogy, which was handed down through the ages. The first three sentences are empty, frank and touching. Lovers give up forever, time suddenly, and ten years pass by quickly. Although people are dead, the beautiful scenes of the past are unforgettable! Now that I think about it, I feel that people are separated forever, and I feel painful. In the ten years after Wang Fu's death, Dongpo was politically suppressed because he opposed Wang Anshi's new law, and his mood was sad and angry. When I arrived in Michigan, I was busy dealing with government affairs in bad years, and my life was extremely difficult. It coincides with the tenth anniversary of his wife's death, which is a touching day. The past suddenly came to my mind, and the undercurrent of emotion that had been accumulated for a long time suddenly surged out uncontrollably like opening the floodgates. So dreams are real and natural. I am deeply moved at the thought of my lover's death. Thousands of miles away, there is no place to be sad. It's extremely painful to say. The author's loneliness, desolation, helplessness and desire to tell people's feelings are particularly touching. Then "even if we meet, we should not know, our faces are dusty and our temples are frosty." He also confused reality with dreams, and put all kinds of personal troubles and resentments after death, including the aging of appearance and the decline of body. At this time, he is less than forty years old and has been "frosted". We have been dead for ten years, but we have to "meet". This is a desperate assumption, deep, sad and helpless, which shows the author's deep nostalgia for his lover and also depicts personal changes, making the meaning of the word more profound. The next paragraph really enters the "dream". The author returned to his hometown in his dream. There, meet your lover and reunite. Here, the author describes a simple, touching and beautiful scene-Xiao Xuan window, dressing up. The author used such a common and unforgettable scene to express his eternal impression of his lover. However, the wonder of Dongpo's brushwork lies in the following two sentences-no words care for each other, only a thousand lines of tears! It's amazing through the ages Silence is painful. Silence is worth a thousand words. It is silence that makes this dream feel infinitely desolate. "There are more silent complaints than talking". This is the victory of silence. The last three sentences fell from dreams to reality. Imagine the pain of the dead to express condolences. Especially "Moonlit Short Matsuoka", two sentences, sad and lonely, sad and lost. The so-called "everlasting, everlasting; One day both will end, and this endless sorrow will last forever "(Bai Juyi). The last three sentences of Dongpo's ci are profound, painful and lingering, which makes people memorable. When writing this word, the author knows that in Mizhou (now Zhucheng, Shandong Province), his wife Wang Fu died in Kaifeng, Song Yingzong for two years (1065). By this time (Xining eight years), it has been ten years before and after. The preface before the word clearly points out that the theme of this article is "recalling dreams". However, the dream scene only appears briefly in the next paragraph of the word and does not occupy a dominant position in the whole article. The reason why the author can enter the hometown of "quiet dreams" is that he can "remember dreams" in words. It is the inevitable result of the author's yearning for his dead wife and long-term unforgettable experience. So the tragic reality of "ten years of life and death" was pointed out at the beginning. What is written here is the personal sad life experience in the long years. Student refers to the author; Death means a dead wife. This shows that the living and the dead have missed each other for a long time, but the news is blocked and the voice is slim. The reason why the author mentioned life and death side by side is not only to clarify the role of the topic, but also to emphasize the sadness of the living, so the words "if you don't think about it, you will never forget" appeared immediately. "Don't think about it" is actually to retreat for progress, just to show the depth of the feeling that the living are "unforgettable". Immediately add a sentence, "A thousand miles in a lonely grave, nowhere to talk about desolation". Explain the actual content of "unforgettable". After the death of Wang, he was buried in Meishan, Su Shi's hometown. Naturally, there will be a saying of "a lonely grave of thousands of miles". As a result, it is difficult for the author to even get a chance to pay homage at the grave. The dead are "desolate" and the living are heartbroken. Ten years is a long time; "A thousand miles" is a vast space. In this long and vast space of time, there is an insurmountable boundary between life and death. How does the author not multiply the sigh of "nowhere to talk"? It is difficult to cross the boundaries of time, space and life and death, so we have to beg for a dream meeting. The above four sentences paved the way for "remembering dreams". At the end of the last film, three sentences suddenly changed the subject, making progress and retreating, imagining the unexpected consequences of not knowing each other even if they met. The contents of these three sentences are very many, including the author's ups and downs in his career in the past ten years, the long-term mental torture of his dead wife, and the physical aging in the past ten years. Hypothesis; Even if the boundaries between time, space and life and death are broken, the living and the dead can still "meet", but I'm afraid it's difficult for each other to "get to know each other" when they meet. Because ten years later, the author is "travel-stained, as cold as ice" and looks like an old man. These three sentences reflect the author's misfortune and great changes in the world in the past ten years (including his three-year life in Beijing after opposing the new law) from the reflection on the imaginary dead. The next movie is about the sudden appearance of dreams: "When night falls, dreams suddenly come home". As far as the word is concerned. This article is really Apollo's true feelings. Every sentence is painful, but this sentence contains joy in sadness. Xiao Xuan Window Dressing supplements the above sentence with vivid images, thus making the dream more real. The author seems to be beside the newly-married king, watching her bathing in the morning light and dressing up in front of the mirror, and her heart is full of sweetness and tenderness. However, the word pen later changed from happy to sad. "There is nothing to say to each other, only a thousand tears." These two sentences should be "a lonely grave a thousand miles away". Now you can "go home" and it is time to enjoy "bleak words". However, I don't know where to start with a thousand words in my heart, so I had to "help each other" and burst into tears. These five sentences are the theme of this word: "Remember the dream". It is precisely because dreams are illusory and the artistic conception of the word is somewhat dreamy, so it is impossible and unnecessary for the author to describe it incisively and vividly. Only in this way can we leave room for readers' imagination. The last three sentences are a sigh after the dream and a comfort to the deceased. If we associate the first ten years with the uncertain "year after year", isn't the author's memory of his dead wife "and this endless sadness continues"? This article has a noteworthy feature in art, which is straightforward and sincere. Because the author has a deep affection for his dead wife, even ten years after the death of the other party, the author still fantasizes about meeting in his dream. And through the dream (or the part related to the dream), express your true feelings heartily, without taboo or concealment. Words like "I can't forget if I don't think about it", "I have nowhere to say" and "I only care about a thousand lines of tears" all reflect the natural characteristics of direct confession and voicing. Another feature is rich imagination and ingenious conception. The author gallops through the imagination from a long time and a vast space, and integrates the past, the present, the dream and the future into a unified artistic whole, closely following the words "thinking" and "unforgettable". The whole word is clear, but it is full of twists and turns. In the first film, there are eight sentences about the memory and emotional ups and downs before writing the dream, the first five sentences are about the sadness and joy in the dream, and the last three sentences are about the sigh after writing the dream. The plot has ups and downs; With a pen, there are advances and retreats, feelings, sorrows and joys; Do all the twists and turns. Another feature is frank language and pure line drawing. Because this is a poem that expresses true feelings, the language is also extremely simple and natural, with true feelings. If you understand, there is no trace of carving. This simple language and the staggered use of different sentence patterns (three, four, five, seven words) make this word handsome and sharp, which just shows the author's thoughts and feelings. It has an inherent sense of rhythm and gripping artistic charm that is difficult to produce in ancient poetry and rhythmic poetry.
