This is an uninhibited work of graceful and restrained poets. One or two sentences are transformed from Qu Yuan's "Sadness is greater than heart death", which shows the spirit of hard bones and has become a famous sentence through the ages. In three or four sentences, Xiang Yu refused to go back to Jiangdong to drag out an ignoble existence, which not only expressed his nostalgia and admiration for Xiang Yu, but also expressed the author's persistent reverence for Xiang Yu's resolute spirit since he crossed the south in the Song Dynasty, and expressed her strong dissatisfaction with the shameful behavior of the court in the Southern Song Dynasty to give up a large area of land. She refused to explore the north, and expressed her feelings in her later poems, which became a new way for us to understand her later poems.
Du Mu in Tiwujiang Pavilion
This poem is an epic written by Du Mu when he went to Beijing from Xuanzhou in four years. Inspired by Xiang Yu's defeat and suicide, the poem criticizes and satirizes Xiang Yu's failure to sum up the lessons of victory and defeat, and deeply regrets the destruction of his great cause. The dispute between Chu and Han is a thing of the past, but this poem has a new interpretation. First of all, it is common for a military strategist to win or lose, but it can't be measured in advance, so a gentleman won't be arrogant and won't lose with grace. Later, he said that Xiang Yu would return to his hometown in Jiangdong after his defeat in order to make a comeback. Du Mu's poems are mainly based on rewriting historical knowledge and momentum, which gives people profound enlightenment and thinking. This poem is an outstanding representative.
Wang Anshi is in Wujiang Pavilion.
This is a poem written for Du Mu, which shows Wang Anshi's view on Xiang Yu's failure. Du Mu wrote in his "Diaojiangting": "The plan of a military strategist is unexpected. The children of Jiangdong are brilliant, and it is unknown that they will make a comeback. " It means criticizing Xiang Yu for not being broad-minded enough. If Xiang regroups in Jiangdong, maybe he can make a comeback. According to Wang Anshi's own understanding, Xiang Yu's failure is a foregone conclusion. Even if the children of Jiangdong were still there, Xiang could not lead them to make a comeback, thinking that they might not be willing to work for the war again.
