Original poem:
Jiang Xue in Tang Dynasty: Liu Zongyuan
There are no birds flying over those mountains, and there are no traces of people in those paths.
A boat on the river, a fisherman wearing his webworm moth; Fishing alone is not afraid of snow and ice.
Explanation:
On all the mountains, birds have disappeared, and on all the roads, there are no traces of people.
On a lonely boat on the river, an old man in a bamboo hat was fishing alone on the cold river covered with heavy snow.
Extended data:
This poem was written during Liu Zongyuan's exile in Yongzhou (AD 805-8 15). Poets express the value and ideal taste of life through poems.
The landscape poems written by Liu Zongyuan have a remarkable feature, that is, the objective realm is relatively quiet, while the poet's subjective state of mind is relatively lonely, sometimes even too lonely, too cold and cheerless, without any human fireworks.
This song "Jiang Xue" is like this. The poet painted a quiet and cold picture in only 20 words: on the snowy river, a boat and an old fisherman were fishing alone on the cold river.
This illuminated and beautified image of the fisherman is actually the sustenance and portrayal of Liu Zongyuan's own thoughts and feelings. It can be seen that the word "Hanjiangxue" is the "finishing touch", which organically links the front and back parts of the whole poem, not only forming a concise and general picture, but also shaping a complete and prominent image of the fisherman.
Describe the background in a concrete and meticulous way, and depict the subject image in a long-distance picture; Fine and extremely exaggerated generalizations are intricately unified in a poem, which is the unique artistic feature of this landscape poem.
