Notes

Recalling Jiangnan: the name of Tang Jiaofang. The author wrote in the caption: "This song is also called' Xie Qiuniang', with five sentences each." According to Yuefu Poems: "A man named" Looking at Jiangnan "in" Recalling Jiangnan "was renamed" Good Jiangnan "because of Bai's ci." It became a epigraph name in the late Tang and Five Dynasties. The Jiangnan referred to here mainly refers to Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

county pavilion: suspected to refer to the east building of Hangzhou.

cinnamon: osmanthus fragrans.

county pavilion: suspected to refer to the east building of Hangzhou.

Look at the tide head: at the entrance of Qiantang River into the sea, there are two mountains facing each other like a door, and the water is trapped, which is extremely fierce and is a world-famous scenic spot.

The New Book of the South reads: "Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou is full of osmanthus, and the monk said,' We will plant this month.' So far, looking at the night in the Mid-Autumn Festival, children often fall, and monks also try to pick it up. "It can be seen that laurel's statement in this temple is just a monk's self-talk. However, the truth of life is not equal to the truth of art, and the works use this legend to express the extraordinary of Hangzhou.

At the same time, "Looking for cinnamon in the Moon in the Mountain Temple" also shows the poet's romantic imagination. It seems that osmanthus flowers are in full bloom before our eyes and we smell the rich fragrance of cinnamon. The second sentence "Looking at the tide on the pillow of the county pavilion" depicts the wonders of Hangzhou and Zhejiang entering the sea. Through the description of two representative life pictures, Mountain Temple and Qiantang Tide Watching, the poet can make people want to see the colorful Hangzhou in just two sentences.

These three words are independent and interrelated, so they must be analyzed together.

The first song captures the scenery of Jiangnan in the spring of a year, which is full of vitality and colorful. The phrase "the flowers on the river at sunrise win the fire" depicts the spring flowers on the river bank reflected by the first day, which are redder than the flames. It shows the vibrant state of flowers in spring, which makes people feel the rich and warm beauty of spring in Jiangnan. The second sentence says, "the river is as green as blue in spring."

The spring water is rippling, and the blue waves are thousands of miles away. The poet exaggeratedly describes it as greener than blue grass. This deep blue green contrasts with the fiery red of the above sentence, which makes it even more gorgeous. Poets use colorful words to show the charming state of spring scenery in the south of the Yangtze River. People who have lived in Suzhou and Hangzhou for a long time like the author naturally "can't forget Jiangnan!" Even people who have never been to Jiangnan will be eager to see it.

if the first song is an objective grasp of the spring scenery in the south of the Yangtze River and a general description of it, then the second and third songs verify that it is "good in the south of the Yangtze River" by highlighting two places that are compared with heaven, namely Suzhou and Hangzhou.

In ancient mythology, there is a legend of laurel trees in the middle of the moon. "The New Book of the South" says: "Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou is full of osmanthus, and the monk said,' It will be planted this month.' So far, looking at the night in the Mid-Autumn Festival, children often fall, and monks also try to pick it up. "It can be seen that laurel's statement in this temple is just a monk's self-talk. However, the truth of life is not equal to the truth of art, and the works use this legend to express the extraordinary of Hangzhou.

At the same time, "Looking for cinnamon in the Moon in the Mountain Temple" also shows the poet's romantic imagination. It seems that osmanthus flowers are in full bloom before our eyes and we smell the rich fragrance of cinnamon. The second sentence "Looking at the tide on the pillow of the county pavilion" depicts the wonders of Hangzhou and Zhejiang entering the sea. Through the description of two representative life pictures, Mountain Temple and Qiantang Tide Watching, the poet can make people want to see the colorful Hangzhou in just two sentences.

The last song is about the beauty of Suzhou. Suzhou has scenic spots and historical sites such as Guanwa Palace, which was built by Fu Cha, the King of Wu, for beauty Xi Shi. There are fine wines and wines called "Bamboo Leaf Spring". The women in Suzhou are also more beautiful and can sing and dance. Their dancing is reminiscent of the lotus flowers intoxicated in the wind. The poet succinctly outlines the charming customs of Suzhou with his wonderful poems and pens, which makes people extremely fascinated.

The three poems are independent and complementary to each other, describing the beauty of the scenery, the beauty of the wind and the beauty of women in the south of the Yangtze River. Each capital begins with "Jiangnan is good" and ends with a direct and affectionate sentence. The artistic generalization is strong and the artistic conception is wonderful, which makes people want to go to the south of the Yangtze River to see it on the spot.

Extended information:

Bai Juyi once served as the secretariat of Hangzhou for two years, and later served as the secretariat of Suzhou for more than a year. In his youth, he roamed the south of the Yangtze River and lived in Suzhou and Hangzhou. He knew a lot about the south of the Yangtze River, so he was deeply impressed by it. When he retired from Suzhou Secretariat due to illness and returned to Luoyang for more than ten years, he wrote these three poems "Recalling Jiangnan".

This epigraph was originally named "Looking at Jiangnan". It can be found in Jiaofang Ji and Dunhuang Quzi Ci. Bai Juyi is a famous article entitled "Memorizing Jiangnan", which highlights the word "memory" and expresses his nostalgia for Jiangnan. Bai Juyi roamed the south of the Yangtze River as early as his youth, traveling in Suzhou and Hangzhou. Later, he became an official in Suzhou and Hangzhou: in July of the second year of Changqing (822), Tang Muzong took office in October except for the secretariat of Hangzhou, and left Hangzhou in May of the fourth year of Changqing; In the first year of Tang Jingzong Baoli (825), Xu was the secretariat of Suzhou, and arrived in May. He returned to Luoyang in the autumn of the following year due to eye diseases. At this time, he was fifty-five years old. Suzhou and Hangzhou are famous counties in the south of the Yangtze River, with beautiful scenery and romantic characters, which left a good memory for Bai Juyi. After returning to Luoyang, I wrote many poems that miss the old tour. This is what he did in his later years.
