It is a lyric poem and a genre painting. It shows the beauty of nature, folk customs and human nature, and depicts the scenery and human feelings seen on a boat near the water. It is a unique lyric local novel. Appreciation of beauty and beauty in Border Town can help readers better understand the works and appreciate the beauty of literature. First, the beauty of customs is heaven. "Shen Congwen was born in Xiangxi, where Miao and Han people live together. He is most familiar with the customs of this area. Not only familiar, but also loving. " Shi Zhecun said. Border Town depicts a beautiful regional genre painting in Xiangxi in the author's childhood memory and ideal world. The sun rises, the boat sails by the stream, the sun sets and the boat closes. This life is virtually a painting, like a withered vine and an old tree, like a faint crow, like a small bridge and a flowing family, like a thin horse on an ancient road. They precipitated great vicissitudes of life, silence and sadness. As a painting, it has an indelible appreciation value and a strong local flavor. As truth, it is unbearable. Being a person in life is another kind of sadness and helplessness. This painting is beautiful, exquisite and gorgeous, which contains the natural scenery, social customs, interpersonal relationships and human nature in the border areas of western Hunan, and accumulates profound and mysterious Chu culture. Shen Congwen said: What I want to show is a "life form", a "beautiful and healthy life form that does not contradict human nature". Therefore, there is a simple and fresh world in Border Town, a rural society close to "Xanadu", showing a kind and simple rural customs. Xiangxi in his works is like this: On the Mid-Autumn Festival, young men and women pour out their love in the form of duets on the moonlit night; On the Dragon Boat Festival, every household locks the door, goes to the river, watches the dragon boat race on the diaojiao building, and participates in duck catching activities in the river. "whoever catches the duck will become the owner of the duck"; On the fifteenth day of the first month, there are dragon dances, lion dances and fireworks. "Small firecrackers are like rain", and the whole town is immersed in joy ... People living in this atmosphere are simple and kind, and any tension here seems out of place. Second, the beauty of mountains and rivers makes people feel at home. A famous artist said that life is not a lack of beauty, but a lack of eyes to find beauty. The author showed us such a picture in Border Town with vivid brushstrokes: "There is a small white tower beside a stream, and a family lives under it. There is an old man, a girl and a yellow dog in this family. The stream flows down the river, stops flowing around the mountain, and flows into the edge of Chadong City for about three miles. The stream is like a bow, and the mountain road is like a bowstring. There is a slight difference between distance and distance. This stream is about twenty feet wide, and its bed is paved with big stones. Even if the quiet water is too deep to bottom, it is still clear and transparent, and the fish in the middle reaches of the river can be counted. " People who lived in the countryside in their early years will feel deja vu. In the novel, the crystal clear river, the small town surrounded by mountains and waters, the diaojiao building on the river street, the ferry climbing the cable, the white pagoda related to the "Feng Shui" in the teahouse and the birds singing in the deep bamboo raft are all natural and beautiful, picturesque, which makes people dream and enjoy the beauty. The description of the flood in Border Town in the second chapter, people's calm response, and the description of prostitutes who value righteousness over profit and keep their promises on the diaojiao building all show the "pastoral atmosphere" of Xiangxi. Located in the southwest corner of Chinese mainland, the enclosed area surrounded by Wuling Mountain, Xuefeng Mountain and Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau is the paradise of Shen Congwen's soul. Shen Congwen's concept of heaven is based on the goodness of human nature, which is projected on the characters' personality, interpersonal relationship, social customs and even the natural environment in the tea cave. Thirdly, the border town people with beautiful personality are "a group of kind people who are not polluted by modern civilization". They maintain a quiet and harmonious lifestyle and simple and frugal ancient folk customs. Between the lines, we can feel Mr. Shen's efforts to build a paradise full of natural humanity. The characters he created shine with the frank, beautiful and pious side of humanity-the people in the border town are the representatives of human beauty. In the border town, what we see is the simple, thrifty, friendly and peaceful scene of people. "The person who manages this ferry is an old man who lives under the tower. I lived for seventy years, and I have been staying by this stream since I was twenty. I don't know how many people have burned down the bridge in these fifty years. Although he is so old and his bones are so hard that he should have a rest, the sky doesn't allow him to rest, and it seems that he can't live without this kind of life. He never thought about the significance of his position to himself, but lived there quietly and faithfully. " When writing about Shun Shun, who is in charge of the water terminal, the article said: "Although this generous and free-spirited man has a smooth career, he has a wide range of friends, is generous and can help others ... understands the hardships of outsiders and the feelings of frustrated people ... but he is so impartial and selfless ... both upright and peaceful, and does not love money." When talking about these two young people, people say: "As strong as a bull ...-bold and open-minded, unconventional ..." What's even more amazing is that the yellow dog is also very clever and sensible: "Sometimes grandpa's yellow dog and I are on the boat, and when the boat is close to the shore, when grandpa greets the guests, the yellow dog will jump first with a rope. First-time readers of "Xiangxi Series" may be puzzled by the double suicide of the protagonist Cui Cui's parents, but in Xiangxi, the expression of "love" is often intense and tragic. If you cheat, you cheat, and if you are killed, you are killed. Feelings are supreme, and life is treated like dirt. This kind of situation is more. "Cui Cui's parents' double suicide is not forced by anyone or power. It is precisely because of this that we deeply feel the tragic character of good people-hesitant because of kindness, considerate because of kindness, and hurting ourselves because of kindness. Liu Xiwei said: "Although the characters in the author's works are all kind, they contain tragic elements. Only when we are kind, we are more likely to feel sad. " At the beginning of Border Town, the author slowly opened the curtain of this tragedy caused by goodness. In this closed town far from civilization, a group of natural people lost themselves because of kindness. Cui Cui, the hero, is one of the most successful figures. She is an elf bred by Xiangxi water. She grew up in the wind and rain, and her dark skin and crystal clear eyes naturally nurtured and educated her. She is "naive and lively, like a small animal everywhere", "never considers cruel things, never worries, never gets angry". She is the spirit and embodiment of beauty. Grandpa died, but she was sad but didn't fall down. She refused the boat's offer to let her stay at his house. Like grandpa, she is guarding the ferry and her relatives are waiting for her lover to return. This shows the strong femininity in her character, the strength in femininity, and her hope against fate. Grandpa Bao has the traditional virtues of China, and he has infinite love for his granddaughter. Worried about Cui Cui's marriage, trying to make Cui Cui's love come true. In my life, I am also very concerned about Cui Cui. I don't want Cui Cui fidgeting for fear that Cui Cui will get sick. Emotionally, I try my best to understand Cui Cui's thoughts. When Cui Cui is sad and lonely, I tell her stories, tell jokes and sing songs. Tianbao is generous. He is the eldest son of the boatman, but he falls in love with the granddaughter of the poor ferryman. He knew that his younger brother loved Cui Cui, too. They sang Duel, but he kissed first because of himself. "Be the brother's leader", so he insisted that his brother sing first. As soon as his brother "spoke", he knew that he was not an "opponent", so he generously fulfilled his brother and fully showed brotherhood. Later, he went to the seaside, not only for his brother's happiness, but also to dispel his disappointment and sadness, "so as to forget everything above." In the end, he died unexpectedly. It can be said that he died for affection and love. All these characters fully show the truth, goodness and beauty in the world. Border Town gives an appropriate explanation for human love with a clear, beautiful but somewhat sad pastoral. Under the author's ingenious language and wonderful brushwork, we really feel the beauty of nature, folklore and humanity. Perception of such works, we get the purification and nourishment of human nature. Posted in China Paper Download Center.
