Nian Nujiao - Red Cliff Huai Gu
Author Su Shi? Dynasty Song
The great river goes east, the waves are exhausted, a thousand years of the people.
The west side of the old fortress, people are, the three Zhou Lang Red Cliff.
The rocks are piercing through the air, the waves are beating against the shore, and a thousand piles of snow are being rolled up.
The mountains and rivers are like pictures, how many heroes are there?
When I think of Gongjin, Xiao Qiao was married at the beginning of the year.
Fan and spandex, talk and laugh, boom and scull.
The old country is a great place to visit, and I'm sure you'll laugh at me, but I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
Life is like a dream, a libation.
Translation:
The water of the great river rolls on and on to the east, plucking out those characters who have been heroes throughout the ages. A thousand heroic figures. To the west of that old camp, people say is, the Red Cliff where Zhou Yu of the Three Kingdoms broke Cao's army. Steep stone walls towering to the sky, such as thunderous waves beat against the riverbank, stirring up the waves as if rolling up millions of piles of white snow. The majestic mountains and rivers are as beautiful as pictures, and how many heroes and heroines have emerged in a while. Reminiscent of the Zhou Yu in the year of the spring, the absolute beauty Xiao Qiao just married to him, he was heroic and full of vigor. Hand shaking the feather fan head wearing a silk scarf, calmly and elegantly in the joking and chatting between the strong enemy's warships burned to ashes. I am traveling to the battlefield of the year, ridiculous I am sentimental and sentimental, prematurely produced a full head of gray hair. Life is like a dream, raise a glass of wine to sacrifice this ancient bright moon.
Appreciation of the whole text
This lyric is nostalgic and lyrical, writing about the exhaustion of one's own heart, and then focusing on history and life with an open heart. The first section of the song describes the natural scenery of Red Cliff Rocky, with an open and broad mood, and a vague and deep sense of emotion. The writing is cloudy and robust, and the writing is powerful. The song is a great example of how the river flows and the people of the past can be put together in a single piece of writing.
The ancient characters have been eliminated by the waves, so is it not sad that one's own micro? However, Su Shi has another idea: since the ancient people are inevitably so, then one's own glory and shame and poor and how to lament! Since human beings are on the same path, it is too pedantic to draw on one's fame and fortune. The next two lines cut into the theme of nostalgia for the past, specifically talking about the Three Kingdoms Red Cliff. The three words "humane" are very appropriate. The Battle of Red Cliff is a controversial place. One said in today's Hubei Puqi County territory, has been changed to Chibi City. But now there are four places in Hubei Province, the same name Red Cliff, the other three in Huanggang, Wuchang, Hanyang neighborhood. Su Shi traveled to the Red Cliff of Huanggang, he did not seem to be sure, so with "humane is" three words to lead to the following discussion.
"Chaotic rocks" the following five sentences is written in the river water surging spectacular scene. In which "through", "shoot", "roll" and other verbs are used vividly. "The river and mountains are like a picture" is a sentence summarizing the scene. "How many great men and women of the moment" is another transition from scenery to personnel.
Su Shi focused on writing about the "Three Kingdoms", so the next section is all about Zhou Lang. The first five lines are about the Red Cliff War. Similar to Zhou Yu's joking war, the author's depiction of such a sensational war is also heavy-handed, with a lot of free strokes. From the first line of "the characters of the ancient times" to "how many heroes of the moment" to "think of the year of Gong Jin", the line of sight is constantly closed, and finally the focus is fixed on Zhou Yu. However, Zhou Yu does not write about his wisdom and courage, but only about his elegance and elegance.
It is easy for those who do not pay attention to the "lupine fan and silk scarf" as a substitute for Zhuge Liang, because Zhuge Liang's attire has always been famous for its lupine fan and silk scarf. But in the Three Kingdoms, this is the usual attire of Confucian generals. Song people also more to "feather fan" refers to zhou Yu, such as dai fugu "red wall" poem cloud: "thousands of zhou gongjin, such as it in the present. The wind waved his feather fan, and the fire broke the building and ship."
Su Shi's poem here is about Zhou Yu's elegance and calmness, but his feelings are complex. "
Su Shi here is talking about Zhou Yu's elegance and calmness, but his feelings are complicated. Zhou Yu was thirty-four years old when he broke Cao, and Su Shi was forty-seven years old when he wrote this poem. Confucius once said, "Forty-five and ten years old, and no one has ever heard of him, but he is not to be feared". "Su Shi from Zhou Yu's young and promising, associated with their own ups and downs, so there is "love should laugh at me" sentence, the language seems light, but the meaning is somber. But Su Shi is after all Su Shi, he is not a sad and sorrowful cold Confucian, but a wise man who has seen through the world's favor and humiliation. So he perceived his own sadness, not like Li Yu of the Southern Tang Dynasty, like the sea of bitterness, self-sadness, but the Zhou Yu and their own are placed in the whole history of the river and mountain to look at. In Su Shi's view, when the dashing and calm, the reputation of the world's Zhou Yu now and how it? Not also by the great waves have been eliminated. In this way, Su Shi will be from the sadness of transcendence. "Life everywhere know how to be like, should be like the Feihong trampled on the snow mud. I should be like a flying hong treading on the snowy mud. I may leave my fingers and claws on the mud by chance, but the hong flies and never counts the things" ("What Ziyu Mianchi Wistfulness for Old Times"). Therefore, after comparing Su Shi with Zhou Yu, although he also saw that his own political achievements were not comparable to Zhou Yu's, when it came to the laws of development and the general destiny of mankind as a whole, there was in fact no great difference between the two sides. Such deep thoughts led to the conclusion of the poem, "Life is like a dream, a libation of the river and the moon". As he said in the lyrics of "Moon on the Western River", "The world is a dream, and life is a few degrees of coolness in the fall." Negative pessimism is not the true meaning of life, transcendence is the life of the song. Since the world is like a dream, why not spill the wine in the reflection of the bright moon in the center of the river, get rid of the bitterness, and let the spirit be free by savoring the infinite from the finite. The same period of the "Red Cliff Fugue" in this said more clearly and explicitly: "but the wind on the river, and the bright moon in the mountains, the ear for the sound, the eye meets the color. Taking is not prohibited, inexhaustible, is the creator of the endless Tibetan also, and I and the son of the **** fit also." This kind of transcendent and distant thought of the text, just like the "Zhuangzi? The theory of things" thought of a replica. But Zhuangzi to avoid the reality, Su Shi to transcend the reality.
Huangzhou years is Su Shi thought of a period of transition, but also his continued maturity and wisdom of the period, he is to protect their own personality of the shore, but also to maintain their own pure to the spirit. This "Nian Nujiao" words and its made in the same period of several poems, all for us to reveal the end of it.
Since its release, the poem has experienced two very different fates. Those who have praised it, such as Hu Zai's "Campsis Fishing Hidden Words", have called it "a masterpiece of language and meaning, truly a masterpiece of the past and present". Degradation of those such as Yu Wenbao "Blowing Sword Continuation Record" cloud: "Dongpo in the jade hall, there is a Curator good eulogy. Asked: 'I word than Liu Qi how?' Said: 'Liu Langzhong words, only with 17 or 18 girls, the red teeth board, singing 'willow shore dawn wind and moon'. The words of a bachelor must be sung by a big man from Guanxi, holding an iron plate and singing 'Eastward the Great River'. The public was overwhelmed by this. "On the surface, the remarks of the shoushi distinguished the difference between the lyric styles of Liu and Su, but implicitly derided Su's words as deviating from the traditional lyric style. In the Qing Dynasty, some people even thought that the words "are not qualified" (Ding Shaoyi, "Listen to the words of the Autumn Hall"), Zhu Yizun, "word synthesis" and detailed proof, can also be described as fault-finding.
"Nian Nujiao" is Su Shi relegated to Huangzhou works.
Nian Nu Jiao is a work of Su Shi after he was relegated to Huangzhou. This is an idle post, he was in the old city campsite to open up the beds of farming, traveling to visit ancient times, political disillusionment, nourished his escape from reality and the ideological mood of unrecognized talent, but because of his open-mindedness, in the motherland's majestic mountains and rivers and historical figures inspired by the scenery, lyrics, wrote a series of popular masterpieces, the lyrics for its representative.
"Nian Nujiao" is divided into two que. The upper que is about the Red Cliff, the lower que is about Zhou Yu, and the writer is sad about the past, and concludes with his own feelings. The author hangs up the ancient sadness, think of the ancient heroes, through the ancient celebrated hero performance, think of their own experience of frustration. He was not able to build up his career, and his ambition was hard to fulfill, so he expressed his inner feelings of sorrow and anger.
The first three lines of the song are not only about the great red wall, but also about the great city, the great city, the great city, the great city, the great city, the great city, the great city, the great city, the great city. The first three lines are not only about the momentum of the river, but also about the heroes of the past, expressing the desire for heroes. The first three lines summarize the heroes of the past and express the yearning for them. The use of words such as "chaotic", "through", "shocked", "beat", "rolled", etc., are very effective. "The use of words, subtle and ingenious to outline the dangerous situation of the ancient battlefield, written out its majestic scenery, thus rendering the environmental atmosphere for the next piece of the heroes in the war of Red Cliffs.
The next section focuses on writing about people, expressing his admiration for Zhou Yu, and expressing his feelings about the lack of success in his own endeavors. "Sentimental" after a few lines although the expression of feelings of sadness, but this feeling is actually the word is not willing to sink, actively enterprising, upward performance, still not lose the hero's heroic nature.
With the magnificent mood writing chest block.
The poet is an open-minded person, despite the political disillusionment, but never lost faith in life. This lyric is a concentrated reflection of his complex mood, although the word writing disillusionment, but the tone is magnificent, and the same theme of the disillusioned writer's work is obviously different. The magnificent mood of the lyric is firstly expressed in the description of the scenery of Red Cliff. The extraordinary weather of the Yangtze River and the dangerous situation of the ancient battlefield give people a sense of grandeur. Zhou Yu's valor and achievements are all enviable.
Background
This poem was written by Su Shi in the fifth year of Emperor Shenzong's Yuanfeng reign (1082 A.D.) when he was relegated to Huangzhou, at the age of forty-five, and had already been relegated to Huangzhou for more than two years because of the "Wutai Poetry Case". Su Shi's poems satirizing the new law, for the new school bureaucrats, and was deported, there are endless sorrows in his heart, so he traveled around to relax his emotions. Happen to come to Huangzhou outside the Red Cliff (nose) Iso, this magnificent scenery makes the author a lot of feelings, but also let the author in the memory of the Three Kingdoms period Zhou Yu unlimited scenery at the same time also lamented the time passes, because of the writing of the lyrics.
