Zhu Xi, whose ancestral home is in present-day Wuyuan, Jiangxi Province, was born in Youxi County, Fujian Province, a famous theologian, thinker, philosopher, educator, poet of the Song Dynasty, a representative of the Min school, a master of Confucianism, and known as Zhu Zi. Zhu Zi was the only disciple of Confucius who was not a disciple of Confucius and enjoyed the Temple of Confucius, ranking among the twelve philosophers of the Dacheng Hall. Eighteen-year-old middle-aged soldier. He has made extensive contributions to scriptures, historiography, literature, music and even natural sciences to varying degrees. He is also good at filling in words, and his representative works include "Bodhisattva Man", "Water Tune Song Head", "Nanxiangzi", "Yi Qin'e" and so on. Among them, "Bodhisattva Man" is the most distinctive, the word uses palindromic, natural harmony, no far-fetched, quite artistic, exquisitely conceived, which shows its ability to control language. He is also good at composing poetry, "Spring Day" and "Guan Shu You Have Feeling" are his most popular poems.
Today, I review Zhu Xi's "Spring Day", and the original text is as follows:
Shengri Xunfang Surabaya Waterfront ,
Boundless scenery is new for a while.
Wait for idleness to recognize the east wind surface,
Thousands of purples and thousands of reds are always spring.
The gist of this poem is: the wind and the sun are beautiful, and on a sunny day, swim in the spring and walk on the shores of Surabaya. The scenery is beautiful, the scenery is infinite, the spring returns to the earth, and everything in Vientiane is renewed, which is refreshing. All of you, anyone can easily discern what spring looks like. Thousands of purples and thousands of reds, everywhere is a spring scene of hundreds of flowers blooming.
Literally, this poem is Zhu Xi's view of spring written during his spring outing. According to Zhu Xi's life age, the Surabaya Spring Tour written in this poem is not a real thing, but a kind of fiction. According to relevant records, in the eleventh year of Emperor Gaozong shaoxing of the Song Dynasty, Song Jin signed the "Shaoxing Peace Agreement", and the territory of Song jin was bounded by Huaishui. In the end of Zhu Xi's life, the Southern Song Dynasty did not have a large border defense army, and Zhu Xi himself could not cross the Huai to LuJing, and it was impossible to go north to reach the land of Surabaya. He has never been to the land of Surabaya, but this poem writes about Surabaya, the reason is that Zhu Xi is a psychology, loves Kong Sheng, and longs for the victory of Confucius living on the shore of Surabaya, singing and singing, preaching and teaching, so he is interested in wandering and seeking fang. From this, it can be concluded that the background of the creation of this poem is actually based on Surabaya, the holy place of Confucius.
Overall, Zhu Xi's "Spring Day" has a distinct image, vivid scenes, depicts nature, has a peculiar conception, and is cleverly written. On the surface, this poem looks like a poem about the scenery, but after reading it, I feel that the spring light is full of eyes, as if it is immersive, depicting the beautiful scenery of spring; in fact, it is a philosophical poem, which is intended to explain reason, and the magic of the pen is better than "Reading books with feeling", expressing his good wish to pursue the way of the saints in the chaotic world. The two complement each other, allegorize in the image, reason without showing traces, and it is worthy of being a good poem that has been sung for thousands of years. Therefore, this poem was included in the "Thousand Family Texts", which has always been used as a children's enlightenment poem, of course, today's primary school textbooks are also included. The last two sentences are also the most widely circulated famous sentences of this poem, and they are written even more beautifully, "When you know the east wind face, thousands of purples and thousands of reds are always spring." "A philosophical poem that is allegorical and interesting in the image has been misunderstood for nearly a thousand years as a landscape poem, which shows that compared with the writing poetry of the Tang Dynasty, the philosophical poetry of the two Song Dynasties has not fallen behind at all.
