There are some plums in the corner.
Ling cold drives alone.
Distant knowledge is not snow,
Because of the faint fragrance.
Wang Anshi (1021-1086) was an outstanding politician and writer in the Northern Song Dynasty.
This poem was written during Wang Anshi's two strikes. Taking this as a boundary, Wang Anshi's poetic style has changed greatly. At that time, due to the fierce party struggle and frequent poetic disasters, poets generally showed boldness and restraint.
This poem does not describe the branches, leaves and flower shapes of plum blossoms, but deliberately writes the character of "cold ling blossoms alone" and its refreshing "dark fragrance". The plum blossoms written here are the embodiment of the author's personality. Wang Anshi failed in political reform and was forced to resign. He is very lonely. But he still stubbornly stuck to his political ideals. This poem expresses the author's ideological character and affection as always with a touching artistic image.
Jiang Xue Liutang Zongyuan
There are no birds in the mountains,
A thousand roads without footprints.
A boat, a bamboo cloak,
An old man was fishing in the cold river snow.
analyse
Liu Zongyuan (773-8 19), the leader of the ancient prose movement in the Tang Dynasty, wrote many poems after his relegation, expressing his depressed feelings with elegant style, neat language, deep feelings and long lasting charm.
This poem may be a novel, poem and literary work of the poet during his exile in Yongzhou. He painted his feelings on the fisherman who fished alone, making him the spiritual embodiment of loneliness and complacency. The whole poem is about the snow scene in Jiang Ye, with a word "absolutely" and a word "absolutely". All moving things are excluded from the field of vision, and the rest is endless snow. In the center of this vast and cold picture, there is only a fisherman in a hat, fishing alone on a lonely boat by the cold river of Xuefeng. The whole poem is about scenery, full of emotion, and the "snow" at the end of the film is clear.
