works appreciation

Overall appreciation

In the farewell poems of the Tang Dynasty, those sad and touching works are certainly touching, but another kind of generous and sad poem from the heart, with its sincere friendship and firm belief, painted another heroic and bodybuilding color for the willow color of Baqiao Bridge and the wind and rain of Weicheng City. Gao Shi's Two Poems of Biedong University is a masterpiece of the latter style.

During the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Hu music was popular, and few people could enjoy such ancient music as the lyre. Cui Jue has a poem: "Seven strings are cold and five tones, and this skill of knowing friends has been difficult since ancient times. Only Henan Housing Law has always pitied Dong Lanting. " ("Singing at the Banquet") At this time, Gao Shi was also very frustrated, loafing around and often in a bad situation. But in these two farewell poems, Gao Shi's cheerful attitude and heroic style made his farewell words passionate and inspiring.

Judging from the content of the poem, these two works should be regarded as farewell works for Gao Shi and Dongda to meet after a long separation, and then they parted ways after a short party. Moreover, both of them are in a difficult situation, and the intersection of poverty and humility has its own meaning. The second poem can be understood like this. The first song is broad-minded, and the old tune of leaving sorrow and resentment is swept away. It is magnificent and heroic, comparable to "However, China holds friendship and is a neighbor" in Wang Bo's Biography of Sending Du Shaofu to Sichuan.

"Thousands of miles in Huang Yun, the sun is shining, and the north wind blows geese and snow." These two sentences are written with their own inner truth, so they can be profound; Only with a broad mind can we tell the scenery in front of us and be solemn and stirring. Huang Yun in the sunset, the vast wilderness, only the northern winter has this kind of scene. This kind of situation, if slightly carved, will inevitably hurt the spirit. Height suits this. It's dusk and it's snowing heavily. In the north wind blowing wildly, only geese and Leng Yun appeared in the distance, which made it hard to stop the feeling of cold and wandering. Being reduced to this level by talent makes people cry, and that's the only way. Friends can't be content with the status quo. The first two sentences, by telling the scenery, can see the inner stagnation. Although it has nothing to do with people, it has made people feel like they are in the snow, as if there are strong men whistling on the top of the mountain. If you don't do your best here, you can't see the wonderful turning point below, and you can't see the smoothness, good intentions, deep friendship and other meaning's sadness in the following words.

"Mochow has no confidant in the road ahead, and no one in the world knows you." These two sentences are comforting to friends: don't worry about not meeting your bosom friend. Everyone in the world doesn't know you, Dong! How loud and powerful the words are, full of confidence and strength in comfort, inspiring friends to struggle and struggle. Full of confidence and strength in comfort. Because he is a bosom friend, he speaks simply and generously; Because of its decline, it takes hope as comfort.

"Six purlin floating around, a left Beijing for more than ten years. My husband's poverty should not be enough. I have no money to buy wine today. " It can be seen that he was still in a "poor" situation of "no money to drink". These two farewell works when they were dissatisfied in the early days can't help but "borrow someone else's cup and pour their own foundation." But the poet hopes to give people a feeling of self-confidence and strength in comfort.

When the poet is about to break up, he doesn't write countless thoughts of parting at all, but encourages his friends to embark on a journey and meet the future with passion. Poetry is outstanding because Gao Shi "has a lot of words in his heart and a strong spirit" (Yin Kun's He Yueling Photo Collection) and "exalts himself with temperament" (chronicle of Tang poetry), so he can add color to people with lofty aspirations and wipe tears for wanderers. If it weren't for the poet's inner depression, he couldn't have written his parting words so thoughtfully and firmly, nor could he have made such plain language and created such beautiful, mellow and moving poems.
