What is the main content of Yu Guangzhong's Homesickness?

The main content of Yu Guangzhong's Homesickness is that the poet writes poems with the change of time: childhood-after growing up-later-now, four life stages. People regard the separation in space as the common feature of these four stages: the separation of mother and son when they were young-the separation of husband and wife when they grew up-the separation of mother and son after death-the separation of the wanderer from the mainland now.

The poet found a corresponding word to express his homesickness in four stages of his life: childhood stamps-boat tickets when he grew up-later graves-now straits. Poetry expresses the author's nostalgia for his hometown, and also embodies the poet Yu Guangzhong's good wishes for the early reunification of the Chinese nation.

Homesickness is a modern poem written by the poet Yu Guangzhong. The original poem is as follows:

When I was a child, homesickness was a small stamp. I'm here and my mother is there.

When I grow up, homesickness is a narrow ticket. I'm here and the bride is there.

Later, homesickness became a temporary grave. I'm outside and my mother is inside.

Now, homesickness is a shallow strait. I am here and the mainland is there.

Creative background: 1937 After the outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, 10-year-old Yu Guangzhong moved to Shanghai and Chongqing with his parents. At the age of 22, Yu Guangzhong came to Taiwan Province Province with his family and was admitted to the Foreign Languages Department of Taiwan Province Provincial University. Although Yu Guangzhong majored in foreign languages, he has a keen interest in China traditional culture.

197 1 year, Yu Guangzhong, who hasn't returned to the mainland for more than 20 years, was homesick and wrote a poem in his former residence in Xiamen Street, Taipei. After writing, the poet was full of tears and thoughtfully for a long time. This poem is "Homesickness" which was later sung by overseas wanderers.

This poem is full of deep feelings, both longing for the reunification of the motherland and vivid description of homesickness. Just as many rivers in China are tributaries of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, although Yu Guangzhong lives on an isolated island, as a China poet who loves the motherland and its cultural traditions, his homesickness poems inherit the national emotional tradition in China's classical poems from the inner feelings, and have a deep sense of history and nationality.

The poem "Homesickness" focuses on personal experiences in the mainland. A stamp in that period of youth, a boat ticket in that period of youth, and even a grave in the future all contain the poet's yearning for thousands of overseas travelers, and all these are sublimated to a new height at the end of the poem: "Now/homesickness is a shallow strait/I am here/the mainland is there."

For example, a hundred rivers run to the East China Sea, and a thousand peaks are near Mount Tai. The poet's personal joys and sorrows are integrated with his great love for the motherland and the nation. The poet's personal experience, because of the burning feelings at the end, is even more sultry and melancholy.

"When I was a child", "When I grew up", "Later" and "Now" run through the poem like a red line, summarizing the poet's long life course and yearning for the motherland. The first three poems are like surging waves, and the poet sings the poet's deep attachment to his hometown and motherland with modern poetic language that combines the traditional aesthetic characteristics of China.

The poet succinctly extracted several simple images: stamps, boat tickets, graves and straits. These four images are simple, clear, concentrated and strong. These four images materialize and concretize a very abstract "homesickness" and achieve a good artistic effect through "supporting things and expressing feelings".

These images are connected by two simple demonstrative pronouns, "this" and "that", which skillfully integrate the isolated people, events, time, space and sad ends.
