What did Li Gang, a poet in the Song Dynasty, mainly write in the poem Sick Cow?

Song (Li Gang) plowed thousands of acres and boxes, who was injured when he was exhausted? But in order to satisfy all sentient beings, even if they are sick in the sun, they will not hesitate. Li Gang was the leader of the Anti-Japanese War faction across the Song Dynasty. In the first year of Song Qinzong Jingkang (A.D. 1 126), the Jin people invaded, and he served as the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, which was the most effective hawk. As a result, he was rejected by the capitulators and relegated. At the beginning of the Southern Song Dynasty, Li Gang was elected as prime minister by the emperor, trying to recover the lost land in the Central Plains, but was not allowed by the capitulators, and soon stopped living in Ezhou. The poem "Sick Cow" was written in Ezhou in the second year of Shaoxing, Song Gaozong (1 132). The author was repeatedly flogged and exhausted, but he never forgot to resist gold and serve the country, thinking about his country and all sentient beings, similar to the old cow who was infected with diseases, worked hard, was exhausted, miserable and miserable, and yearned for all sentient beings! In the history of China's poetry, poems about the sun, the moon and stars, mountains and rivers, plants, flowers, birds, fish and insects have emerged one after another since the first book of poetry. There are many excellent works with elegant style, exquisite art and infinite charm in the voluminous poems about objects. Li Gang's Sick Cow is one of them. I don't talk about the high generalization of this poem here, nor about the unpretentious language beauty of this poem. I just want to appreciate its art of "leaving the shape with the shape" and "supporting the meaning with things". According to the description of Si Kongtu's poems, a poet who "describes" (refers to describing objective things) can get a similar shape regardless of his shape, and he is good at "describing": "He is like an out-of-shape person". Li Gang is an expert in "description". His poem "Sick Cow" achieves "similarity", that is, it is not limited to the similarity of the objects described in appearance, but seeks the realm of spiritual similarity. The author intones sick cows, and the focus of pen and ink is not to draw their shapes, but to convey their spirits. The first two sentences of the poem, "plowing a thousand acres of real boxes, makes people tired and then hurts their bones", are about Gengyun Liu's thousand acres of diseases, and the result is that a thousand acres of granaries are full of labor results, but they are extremely exhausted mentally and physically. However, who will pity its hard work of plowing and carrying loads? Here, the author begins to reveal the causal relationship between "plowing a thousand acres" and "real thousand boxes" of sick cows, compares the "fatigue" of sick cows with "who is injured again", and emphatically describes the situation of sick cows who are overworked, exhausted and unsympathetic. The two "thousand words" in the first sentence, which modify "mu" and "box" respectively, are not true references, but extremely express the harvest of a large number of sick cattle "ploughing the fields" and labor. At the same time, they also suggest the course of this cow from young to old, from strong to weak. The second sentence has a strong rhetorical tone, which adds a dignified poetic feeling. The last two lines of the poem take a sharp turn, describing their aspirations: "All beings are full, and they will lie in the sun." The sick cow worked hard and was very tired, but no one felt sorry for her, but she didn't complain about others or passively sink. Because it has the will to "lie ill and rest in the sun" for the sake of food and clothing for all beings. These two poems connect sick cows with "sentient beings" and strongly express the ambition of sick cows to take care of their own diseases and devote themselves to all sentient beings. The "sunset sun" in the conclusion is a pun, which refers to the sunset and symbolizes the old age of sick cattle. Combined with the word "lie", it is helpful to show the spirit of the old cow who is sick but works hard and dies unsatisfied. This poem vividly depicts the image of a sick cow, which not only depicts its weak body shape, but also conveys its spirit of taking pains to get sick and aiming at all beings. This kind of praise for cattle is quite in line with the personality characteristics of cattle, hard-working, dedicated, nothing else. However, this poem is not about praising cows, but about "expressing one's aspiration" to express one's feelings and yearning for the author. As long as we can "know people and discuss the world" as the predecessors said, it is not difficult to see this. Praise the personality traits of cattle, work tirelessly, work hard and complain, aim at all beings, and seek only dedication and nothing else. -"Support the ambition with things" to express feelings for the author by chanting cattle. The poet is exhausted, but he doesn't forget to resist gold and serve the country and miss all sentient beings. Therefore, the tired, pathetic old cow he wrote is the embodiment of the poet's image. In this way, the author praised the sick cow with strong patriotic enthusiasm, held things and expressed his will. Therefore, the sick cow in this poem, that is, the author's own image, is alive and moving, which can cause a * * * sound in the reader's mind and produce aesthetic feeling.
