The oath is as serious as "blood", as solemn, very strong and shocking. The poet summed up the mission of "I" with four symbolic poems. These four poems have no specific reference, but they have expanded and deepened the connotation of this mission with more vivid and broader general reference. The land that the author loves deeply is experiencing a great historical struggle and great changes. The people are rising, the nation is awakening, and the "incomparably gentle dawn" is just around the corner ... As a bird, the author will sing for this great era. Second, realism and symbolism are intertwined. The author uses realism and symbolism to describe a group of vivid poetic images, and gives different symbolic and suggestive meanings to images such as "earth", "river", "wind" and "dawn" respectively. However, the author also has optimistic belief in the "dawn" of the motherland and made a wonderful description.
This poem constantly strengthens its feelings in a lyrical way, so as to strike a chord for a long time. This poem begins with "if", which is the first layer of reinforcement. Who doesn't know the beautiful and crisp songs of birds? This poem is described as "hoarseness", which is the second layer of reinforcement. It is not enough to have these two layers of reinforcement, so the objects of singing have appeared in the poem one after another: land, river, wind and dawn. It is particularly noteworthy that when describing these images, the author has reached the point where he is poor and full of enthusiasm, which fully embodies the artistic characteristics of this liberal poet. When writing poetry, most people avoid or use the word "de" less, because the word "de" is too much and slow, which dilutes the taste of poetry. The author Ai Qing is not. He dares to use a series of long sentences composed of the word "de" to express his lingering feelings, and likes to add a lot of adjectives and modifiers in front of the objects he describes to express the appearance of the objects, forming a special three-dimensional sense and sculpture sense, which is an important feature that distinguishes writer Ai Qing's free poetry creation from other free poetry writers (such as the field). The poem I Love This Land is no exception. If you look at the modifiers such as pathos, ferocity and gentleness that the poet deliberately added before the headwords such as land, river, wind and dawn, you can get a glimpse of the mystery. These long sentences describing landscapes such as land and rivers mentioned above can be said to be the third layer of reinforcement. Just when the author was impressed by his constant singing-tenacious vitality, the poem suddenly took a big turn. After a dash, "I am dead" is highlighted, making the body fertile. As a result, there is a strong contrast before and after death, and in this strong contrast and contrast, it is the persistent love of the "bird" for the land. It was born in Sri Lanka, sang in Sri Lanka, was buried in Sri Lanka, and missed it until death did us part.
Artistic feature
Short in length and ingenious in conception.
Land is a vast image, and the poet chooses it as the object of lyricism and pour out, and its realm is extremely broad. However, these feelings are concentrated in 10 lines of poems, which have achieved excellent artistic effects. First of all, this is because the author did not write from the real place, but from the imaginary place. He did not directly write about his relationship with the land, but imagined himself as a "bird", and used the relationship between the bird and the land to expand the artistic realm of the whole poem, making the overall structure of the whole poem look ingenious and natural. The "bird" in the poem is only a general term, which is symbolic, unlike in ancient poetry (such as cuckoo and partridge). Singing with a hoarse throat is an eye-catching, gripping and thought-provoking poem, and it is also a unique highlight in the whole poem to deepen the author's feelings for the land. Originally, the bird was beautiful and crisp, and there was no "hoarse" voice, but the author especially showed "singing with a hoarse throat" This is the tragic atmosphere at that time (in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War), the author's special personality and temperament, and the author's special expression needs. The aesthetic image produced by * * greatly enhances and strengthens the aesthetic expression of the image, from which we can feel that the author's love for the land is so persistent, loyal and tenacious: even in the face of such a land saturated with suffering, the author should love unconditionally and always do his best. Next, the author uses a montage-like close-up to introduce the objects he wants to sing in turn: land, river, wind and dawn. These are vast natural or cosmic images, which are dynamic and static, near and far, open and magnificent. Before Land, River, Wind and Dawn, the author deliberately added adjectives or modifiers with emotional color to transform them into symbolic and suggestive pictures. From the perspective of conception, the author still sticks to the virtual image of "bird" ("even feathers rot in the land"), symbolically expressing his strong feelings of being born, singing, buried and loyal to the land. At this point, the feelings of poetry reached a climax.
Ingenious transformation, another poetic realm
Generally speaking, after the climax of poetry, it is difficult to express it again. If you don't write well, it will be difficult to continue, or gild the lily, or disjointed, or it will be difficult to bring up the rear area ... But the author skillfully broke a line, separated a line, made the necessary pause, began to skillfully change, created a new poetic scene, and wrote the end of two lines with outstanding images and feelings. There is a thrilling, unforgettable and chanting feeling.
First, the lyric perspective has changed. The first paragraph of the poem is to imagine from a virtual angle, that is, from the perspective of birds, showing the loyalty and love of birds to the land, which seems implicit; In the second section, it was changed to a realistic perspective, that is, from the author's own perspective, he wrote his "tearful eyes" and poured out his "deep" love for the land, which is a direct expression. In this way, the combination and correspondence of the virtual and the real creates an internal and complete artistic space of the whole poem; The correlation and contrast between the result and the reason constitute the internal logical structure that supports the whole poem.
Second, the writing techniques have changed. The first section uses comparison, which is the realm of imagination; The second section uses fu, which is a realistic expression of the soul. The whole poem changes from the montage-like picture hint in front to the direct guidance of the author behind, and ends with strong emotional expression, thus attracting people's attention to a rich emotional atmosphere and feeling the author's loyalty and love for the land again.

theme
By describing that he lives in this land of the motherland, the author has more pain than joy, and there are too many "grief and indignation" and "anger" in his heart. However, this is the motherland where he was born and raised. Even if he dies for her, he won't leave this land-even his feathers will rot in the land after his death. It expresses the author's greatest and deepest unforgettable and indelible patriotic feelings.
picture
The land complex and land in Ai Qing's poems have multiple symbolic meanings in the author's poems. Ai Qing is a "land singer", and "land" constitutes the central image of the author's poems. The image of "land" is a symbol of national spirit, Chinese civilization and the fate of the motherland, which embodies the author's deep love for the motherland and mother earth, which is fully reflected in this poem: the poet expresses that he wants to sing the motherland like a bird; Even if you die, you should be integrated into the motherland. The image of "land" also reflects the author's deepest love for the workers who were born, cultivated and died in Sri Lanka, as well as his concern and exploration of their fate. The "land" here is no longer a simple objective scenery, but an "image" that focuses on the author's subjective feelings. The author feels extremely sad for the old, weak and sick motherland. With this feeling, when he looked around with melancholy eyes, the carrier of lonely and poor wasteland-land entered the author's mind. By praising the "image" of the land, the author curses those who destroy it and fantasizes that the land can be full of vitality. In the poem, the author's voice is hoarse but generous, sad but broad, showing a strong sense of life; Although primitive, it is vigorous and powerful, because land is the foundation of all things. It is precisely because of this love and attachment to the land that the other three images in the author's works flow downstream. Adjectives such as "surging forever" and "grief and indignation" are added before "river" and modifiers such as "blowing endlessly" and "irritating" are added before "wind", which turns these two external pure landscapes into "images" containing the author's subjective feelings, and makes people who are sad and angry persevere in saving the land. The image of "dawn" shows that the author firmly believes that there will be dawn and victory in the turbulent struggle of the people. But the author is still unfinished. "-Later I died, and even my feathers rotted in the land" expressed the author's persistent love for the land. The last two sentences "Why do I often have tears in my eyes?"? Because I love this land deeply ... "The image of returning to the land deepens the theme of the article.
