Dao Jia
When I asked your students under a pine tree, "my teacher," he replied, "went to pick herbs."
However, through these clouds, how can I know which corner of the mountain it is facing? .

Jia Dao (779 ~ 843) was a poet in the Tang Dynasty. Han nationality. The word wave fairy. John young (now near Beijing) was kind. He became a monk in his early years and had no name. In the winter of the fifth year of Yuanhe (8 10), I went to Chang 'an to see Zhang Ji. The following spring, I went to Luoyang, and I began to admire Han Yu, who is deeply appreciated by poetry. After secularization, scholars were introduced repeatedly. When he was literate, he was demoted to the main book of the Yangtze River (now Pengxi, Sichuan) because of slander. He once wrote the poem Sick Cicada (Chronology of Tang Poetry). Five years later (840), he went to Zhou Pu to join the army. Wu Zonghui Chang died in Zhou Pu in the third year (843). Jia Dao's poetry formed a school in the late Tang Dynasty, which had great influence.
In the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Wei's Poem on Benevolence was listed as one of the "Seven Benevolences" in the Tang Dynasty. In Qing Dynasty, Huaiming Li called him "a lonely and miserable man" in "Poems of the Middle and Late Tang Dynasty", and listed his disciple Duo Ren as "entering the room" and "auspicious door". In the late Tang Dynasty, Dong Li and Sun Sheng of the Five Dynasties respected Jia Dao very much, and even burned incense to worship his portraits and poems, which was like a miracle (Biography of Talented Persons in Tang Dynasty and Reading Records in County Zhai). Jia Dao's Collection of the Yangtze River 10, with four series widely used, was photocopied and translated in Song Dynasty. The New Collection of the Yangtze River is based on Jia's poems collected in The Complete Poems of the Tang Dynasty, and other books and related anthologies, anthologies and appendices, such as Chronicle of Jia Dao, Examination of Jia Dao's Friends, and Jia Dao's Poetry Review, are relatively complete.

Make an appreciative comment
This is a question-and-answer poem, but the stone man uses the method of combining questions and answers to describe his anxiety when he is not looking for it. His writing is complicated, his pen is simple, his feelings are profound, and his description is plain. White clouds are nobler than hermits, and pine trees are used to describe hermits' character. The more I admire you when I didn't meet you when I was writing. This poem is believed to have been written by Sun Ge, and it is called "When Visiting Xia Zun".
Jia Dao is famous for his "thoughtful" and is a poet. It is generally believed that he only works hard on the use of words. In fact, his "scrutiny" is not only focused on hammering words and sentences, but also painstaking in article design. This poem is an example.
This poem is characterized by questions and answers. "When I ask your students, under a pine tree" must be asked, but this question is omitted here. From the four words the boy answered, it can be imagined that Panasonic is asking "where did the teacher go?" Then, the question "Where are the herbs collected?" Omitted, the question is included in the answer given by the boy "but which corner of the mountain". The last sentence, "How can I tell through such a cloudy day?" It is the boy who answers the other's questions about whether herbs are collected in front of the mountain, behind the mountain, at the top of the mountain and at the foot of the mountain. Obviously, three questions and answers need at least six sentences to be expressed. Jia Dao adopted the method of comprehensively answering questions, simplifying the complex and simplifying the complex. This kind of "scrutiny" is not between the lines.
However, the success of this poem is not only simple; Simple words cannot explain its beauty. Shi Gui is good at lyricism. The lyrical feature of this poem is to see the depth in the plain. I usually visit a friend and ask him out, and naturally I am disappointed. But in this poem, I don't stop asking questions, and there are two questions and three questions behind. Its handwriting is complicated, while its pen is simple. It is beneficial to see its deep affection and eagerness to write complex feelings with a simple pen. Moreover, these questions and answers are in-depth step by step, and emotional expressions have ups and downs. When I asked your students under a pine tree, I was happy and full of hope; ""My teacher, "he replied," went to collect herbs ""answered what he didn't expect, and he fell down and was disappointed; There is a glimmer of hope in the disappointment of "but which corner of the mountain"; When the last answer is "how do I know through these clouds?" Shi Ren was lost and helpless.
But lyric poetry should rely on artistic image and pay attention to color tone. On the surface, this poem seems colorless and unpretentious, and it is light makeup rather than heavy makeup. In fact, it has a natural shape, bright colors and appropriate tones. The images of gloomy pines and cypresses and long white clouds, green and white, pines and cypresses and clouds are in line with the tone and identity of hermits in the depths of Yunshan. Moreover, the hermit did not see his paintings first, and there was infinite vitality in the green stand; Then I saw large tracts of white clouds, which were deep and hazy, and I couldn't understand them, leaving me nowhere to think. From the gradual change of modeling, the tone sequence also reflects the author's feelings and material transfer.
In the poem, the hermit collects medicine for a living and helps the world. He is a real hermit. So Jia Dao admired him very much. In the poem, the white clouds show their nobleness, the pine trees praise their character, and the landscape writing also contains the meaning of comparison. Only in this way, admiration and the satisfaction of failure highlight their disappointed feelings.
