Author: Su Shi (1037-1101), a writer, painter and gourmet in the Northern Song Dynasty. Zi yue Zhan, no Dongpo lay man. Han nationality, Sichuanese, was buried in Yingchang (now Jiaxian County, Pingdingshan City, Henan Province). Ouyang Xiu called Ou Su one of the "Eight Masters in Tang and Song Dynasties"; Poetry is fresh and vigorous, making good use of exaggeration and metaphor, and its artistic expression is unique. Together with Huang Tingjian, they are called Su Huang. The uninhibited school has a great influence on later generations, and it is called Su Xin with Xin Qiji. He is the author of The Complete Works of Su Dongpo and Dongpo Yuefu.
Appreciation of extended materials: the meaning of poetry is very profound, but the language used is extremely simple. Simplicity is Su Shi's linguistic feature. What the poet pursues is to express a fresh and unprecedented artistic conception in simple and fluent language; And this artistic conception, from time to time flashing the light of philosophy.
Judging from this poem, the language expression is concise, but the connotation is rich. In other words, poetic language itself is a high degree of unity of image and logic. In four poems, the poet roughly describes the image characteristics of Lushan Mountain, and accurately points out the reasons why it is irrelevant to see the mountain. Bright sensibility and clear rationality are intertwined and mutually causal, so the image of poetry is sublimated into a model in the field of rationality, which is why people regard the last two sentences as philosophical epigrams for thousands of times.
