One is Cao Cao, a generation of tyrants who drank wine in linjiang and crossed the river;
One is Chairman Mao, the great leader who pointed out the country and stirred up the writing.
When Cao Cao's "Guancang Sea" met Chairman Mao's "Waves and Sands. Beidaihe", the ancient meeting, who is high and low?
Landscape painting appreciation
Let's first look at Cao Cao's "Guancang Sea".
Since ancient times, Jieshi has been one of the famous mountains in China, and it is the first choice of ancient literati and scholars to ascend to the sea, and Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han have also toured the east to see the sea carved stones.
In the twelfth year of Jian'an, that is, in 207 AD, in order to completely eliminate the remnants of Yuan Shao's clique and achieve the great cause of reunification in one fell swoop, Cao Cao swore an oath to march north in May of that year, left Lulongzhai in July, and wrote this magnificent poem, "Guancang Sea".
At this time, Cao Cao can be said to be the supreme ruler of the northern region, "blackmailing the Son of Heaven to order the princes", giving orders, who dares not obey.
Cao Cao ascended jieshi mountain, faced the magnificent sea, thought of the imperial hegemony of the Qin Emperor Han Wu, and thought that he could match the Qin Emperor Han Wu, and his heart was suddenly full of pride, and he could not help but be inspired by poetry.
View the sea
Eastern Han Dynasty: Cao Cao
To the east, it is bordered by Jieshi to view the sea.
The water is thick and the mountain islands are standing.
Trees are overgrown and grassy.
The autumn wind is cold, and the flood waves are rising.
The journey of the sun and the moon, if out of it;
The stars are brilliant, if out of it.
Luckily, even Ya, the song is sung in Yongzhi.
Translation:
I traveled east to climb Jieshi Mountain to feel the magnificence of the sea.
Look at the wide and vast sea, and the mountain island stands tall.
The bushes of trees and grasses were very lush.
The autumn wind blows the trees, making a sad sound, and the sea churns with huge waves.
The movement of the sun and the moon seems to be from this vast ocean.
The Milky Way is brilliantly starry, as if it were born from this vast ocean.
I am very happy, so I will use poetry to express my heart.
"Since ancient times, autumn has been sad and lonely", tragic autumn has become an eternal topic written by literati and inkers of past generations.
However, Cao Cao's "Guancang Sea" is unusual, and what is given to us in the autumn wind is his heroic feelings and heroism.
Look at the vast sea, the majestic mountain islands, and the green grass and trees, forming a landscape painting with mountains, water, grass, and trees.
"The water is still flowing, the mountains and islands are standing" is quite the courage of Fan Zhongyan's "Yueyang Louji" "vast, boundless", and the waves of the sea churning in the blue waves are magnificent.
"Autumn wind, flood waves" gives the above landscape painting a dynamic and vibrant, as if the light ink rendering has just suddenly turned into a splash of ink waving, making the narrative tone of the whole poem high and rich in appeal.
It seems that it is precisely because of the blowing of the autumn wind that the sea suddenly surges into huge waves, with the potential to swallow everything.
After commanding a million troops and conquering the north and the south, Cao Gong, who had been a warrior all his life, saw this scene, but he further increased his poetry.
The poet is no longer satisfied with the situation in front of him, and begins to use his rich imagination to continue to depict the scene of the sea that encompasses everything.
"The journey of the sun and the moon, if out of it, the stars are brilliant, if it is out of it." The poet has shaped the sea into a vast and magnificent artistic image that embraces the universe, and in a few words, he has written about the vastness of the sea, and its majesty of swallowing the sun and the moon, and containing the stars.
Cao used this poem to express his feelings, he was like the embodiment of the sea, dominating the world, and his ambition and pride overflowed between the papers.
Let's go on to look at Chairman Mao's "Waves and Sands. Beidaihe:
Langtaosha Beidaihe
Modern: Mao Zedong
Heavy rain fell on the swallows, white waves were fierce, and fishing boats outside Qinhuangdao. A vast ocean is gone, who do you know?
In the past, wei Wu waved his whip, and there was a posthumous chapter on the east side of jieshi. The autumn wind is now again, changing the human world.
Heavy rain fell on this land of swallows, the waves rolled in the sky, look at the fishing boats outside Qinhuangdao, they can't see in the undulating waves, and I don't know where they drifted?
It has been a thousand years since the weiwu emperor Cao Cao prancing horses and whipping horses, and toured the east to Jieshi Mountain to leave a poem. A thousand years have passed, and the current Beidaihe is still autumn windy, but the human world has changed its new face.
Chairman Mao's "Waves and Sands. Beidaihe" calligraphy appreciation
In 1954, Mao Zedong was resting in the office of Beidaihe, and on the afternoon of July 31, he came to the place where Cao Cao, the Emperor of Weiwu, viewed the sea more than 1,700 years ago, and after hitting the water and swimming in the sea, the next day, Mao Zedong wrote "Langtaosha • Beidaihe" with a stroke of his pen.
We know that Chairman Mao's evaluation of the supreme ruler of ancient feudal society was very harsh, and he wrote in "Qinyuan Spring. Xue" said: "Qin Emperor Han Wu, slightly lost literary cai; Tang Zong Song Zu, slightly inferior." A generation of heavenly pride, Genghis Khan, only knows how to bend the bow to shoot large eagles. ”
At this moment, he stands between the universes, and the past history churns like an ocean,
He analyzed the Qin Emperor Han Wu, Tang Emperor Song Zu, including Genghis Khan, always felt that the beauty was insufficient,
But only for Cao Cao, he is a kind of admiration from the bottom of his heart, opening up the territory, Cao Cao did not lose the Qin Emperor Han Wu, unified the north, established the State of Wei, and in terms of poetry and song, military theory, Cao Cao far left the Qin Emperor Han Wu behind.
The chairman wrote "Waves and Sands. Beidaihe", there are uses of his favorite "Guancang Hai", such as "there are relics of the East Linjie Stone", "Xiao Ser Autumn Wind is now again", there is a remembrance and affirmation of Cao Cao's life achievements, such as "the past is more than a thousand years, Wei Wu waved the whip, the East Linjie Stone has a relic", there is an expression of the ancient feelings of the present will be victorious again, "Xiao Ser Autumn Wind is now again, changed the human world", surging and exciting, so that people can not be calm for a long time.
"Heavy rain falls on the swallow, the white waves are monstrous", the opening sentence is extraordinary, the heavy rain falls on this place of the swallow, which is both a reality and a strong sense of history, reminiscent of the historical situation of China for thousands of years.
"Fishing boats outside Qinhuangdao." A vast ocean is gone, who do you know? It tells the good memories of Chairman Mao's conversation with the old fishermen, and pins his concern for the safety of fishing boats at sea and his concern for the people.
The sentence "The past has been more than a thousand years" reverses time and space, and then mentions the hero Cao Cao that he remembers, and "Wei Wu wields a whip, and there is a relic of Jieshi in the east" is just like a vivid silhouette of the gods, and a few strokes outline the majesty of Cao Gong's horse and whip, climbing the mountain and facing the sea, which is very magnificent.
Finally, Chairman Mao sublimated the "Autumn Wind and XiaoSer" of "Guancang Sea" to "Xiaoser And Autumn Winds are now again, and the world has changed" is even more heroic.
It can be said that there are no ancients before, and there are no people who come after.
If Cao Cao says that in his poems, he is "extremely authentic, straightforward in his chest, open-minded and open-minded, and should be studied",
Chairman Mao's poems are based on study.
One is the expression of life ideals;
One is the belief that the present will prevail.
Both transcend the limitations of a moment, a place, a thing,
The difference is that Cao Gong's poems give people the majestic trend of personal emotions,
Chairman Mao's words have a clearer sense of the times, a deeper sense of history, and a richer aesthetic capacity, full of affirmation of predecessors, full of bold momentum, optimistic spirit, giving people encouragement, giving people strength, and making people full of hope for the future.
In terms of boldness, the latter has even exceeded the limitations of one time and one place, showing Chairman Mao's unprecedented majesty and boldness and vast feelings of the vast ocean, and is a big stroke that transcends the times.
