Appreciation of the work

1. "Li Sao" is a magnificent lyric, which enjoys a high status in the history of Chinese literature. This famous work was written when Qu Yuan was exiled to the south of the Yangtze River. It is an expression of sorrow and anger by the poet full of patriotic passion. Qu Yuan felt that his way of governing the country could not be accepted by the King of Chu, so he had to walk away sadly and angrily to seek the ideal way of life.

2. He used romantic techniques in this poem and gave a lyrical description: He set off from Cangwu in the morning and arrived at Xuanpu in the evening. How tiring it must be after a day of running around! I wanted to take a short rest outside the palace gate, but I couldn't!

Time is running out and it’s almost dark. I begged Xihe not to drive any further. The concubine was already in front of me, so don’t get close to it! The journey ahead of us is so long and far away. I have determined to persevere in finding the ideal way of life.

3. This poem in Qu Yuan's "Li Sao" has become a famous line that many people use to encourage themselves. A popular explanation is: "In terms of pursuing the truth, the road ahead is still long, but I will persevere and spare no effort to pursue and explore." In fact, this is no longer the original meaning of this sentence in the original poem.

4. If you put this sentence back into the original poem and understand it together with the context, without taking it out of context or using quotations at will, you can come into contact with the perfect art that Qu Yuan wanted to express to future generations. Connotation, see a full, vivid, reasonable and artistic image. The benefits will be far greater than just shouting it as a slogan, and it can also remove the violence and stubbornness in the previous interpretation.
