At this time, the Northern Song Dynasty perished, and Lu You was on the verge of political power, with low qualifications and advocated the Northern Expedition. He has not been reused by the establishment for a long time, but he does have expectations in his heart. When the author saw the plum blossom, he felt it.
Literary appreciation
one
The first sentence of this poem is written like this, "I heard that the flowers in Dao Mei are full of pure wind and snowdrifts are all over the four mountains." Write the scene of plum blossom. For example, the word "Xiao Feng" in the first sentence highlights the arrogant attitude of Meihua who is not afraid of the cold; The second sentence compares plum blossom to snow, which not only describes the white characteristics of plum blossom, but also shows the grand occasion of plum blossom everywhere. The language is distinct and the scene is open. There are still three or four sentences, "How can you be hundreds of billions, and a plum blossom is in bloom?" It is even more unexpected. I am tall and strive for perfection, hoping to become a hundred billion-dollar land tour. Before every land trip, there was a plum blossom, which vividly expressed my fascination with plum blossoms.
"Who can become a hundred billion, a plum blossom?" Use Liu Zongyuan's "Want to turn into 100 billion yuan, hope that my hometown is at the peak" ("Seeing the mountains with people at the beginning and sending my relatives to Beijing"). However, Liu Shi used it to write homesickness, while Lu You used it to write the infatuation of enjoying plum blossoms, which was emotionally different from sadness and joy.
Writing plum in the first two sentences is a foil to the writers in the last two sentences. Faced with the magnificent scene of plum blossom, the poet had a whim and wished to become a hundred million land trips, and there was a plum blossom before each land trip. This rich and bold imagination vividly expresses the poet's love for plum blossoms, and also shows the poet's elegant and refined character. The feeling of the last sentence, if you try to think about it in your mind, can make people smile.
Secondly,
In the first two sentences of this poem, the poet first pointed out that plum blossom grows in a deep valley with little sunshine, and then wrote that its branches face north and face the cold wind, revealing how unfavorable the environment for plum blossom growth is. In a place like this, it naturally blooms late, but it doesn't matter. It highlights the character of plum blossom with the word "self-division"
"The valley is farther north, and the flowers bloom late every year." This is actually a "poetic eye" to enter the poet's more sensitive emotional world. Lu You was a patriotic poet in the Southern Song Dynasty. Both civil and military, high-spirited when young, the northern song dynasty broke. It was the pain of Lu You's life. He was loyal all his life and never forgot about the Northern Expedition, but he was never reused by the Southern Song Dynasty court until his death.
This is actually a standard poem by Yongmei. "The valley is farther north, and the flowers bloom late every year." In the seamless description of Mei's life experience, two meaningful words are used: "Nakan" and "Geng"; There is even a pun in "Northern Branch", saying that the poet naturally thinks that he is on the edge of political power, with low qualifications, and advocates the Northern Expedition, which has not been reused by the establishment for a long time. However, he does have expectations in his heart.
Waiting year after year did not make him feel desperate, and the word "self-separation" accurately conveyed his mentality. Just like this plum blossom, which is still in bud and covered with snow, readers can appreciate the high level and charm of the poet in the snow. Rich poetic and picturesque, mixed with unspeakable sense of life experience, the combination of reality and reality sets off a special aesthetic feeling of seclusion and seclusion. This is the usual style of China's classical poetry.
"Gao Biao Yi Yunjun knows whether it is time for snow and ice to cover." What you see is a picture of plum blossoms and snow in spring and beautiful colors. Born in bitter cold, laughing and ice and snow, looking forward to flowers. This is a plum in bud. Several characters depict Mei Zhi's character and elegance.
In the last two sentences of the poem, the poet linked the plum blossom's "high standard and easy rhyme" with "ice and snow" by asking himself and answering himself, and set off the plum blossom's "high standard and easy rhyme" with "ice and snow", further highlighting the plum blossom's integrity of not being afraid of cold and being proud of frost and snow. The plum blossom in this poem blooms in a harsh geographical and climatic environment, which is why it shows extraordinary character and integrity. The poet praised plum blossom, which showed his ideological realm of upholding lofty integrity in adversity.
In his writing, Lu You skillfully uses the expression of contrast. Words such as "glen", "northern branch", "ice layer" and "snow cover" repeatedly describe the hardship of the environment and the harsh growth conditions, which is a kind of contrast. It highlights the character and charm of plum blossom, making this poem elegant in style and clear in vision.
The whole poem is profound and graceful, with a long realm and high style, which is a masterpiece of Yongmei's Lu You's poems.
