The wind is fast and high, the ape cries sadly, and the birds are circling in the white sand. The endless trees are rustling leaves, and the Yangtze River is rolling unpredictably. Long-distance visitors in the autumn of Wanli, with my hundred years of sadness, climbed this height alone. After all the hardships and hatred, the white hair is full, and the wine glasses are damaged. -Du Fu's "Ascending the Mountain"
Ascending the Mountain is a famous seven-character poem in Du Fu's poetry collection. It was written in the autumn of the second year of Tang Daizong Dali (767) when the poet lived in Kuizhou. This is a sad song of "pulling mountains and lifting ding" style, which was once praised as "the first seven words in ancient and modern times" (Hu Yinglin's poems, compiled internally). The whole poem is about the scenery seen when climbing the mountain, magnificent and vast; In the boundless and vigorous weather, there is a sense of oppression. The whole language is concise, with sonorous tone, flowing charm and neat antithesis. It artistically expresses the poet's depressed patriotic feelings and worries about traveling, and his grief and indignation are not excessive, and his bitterness is not depressed.
The poem begins with a description of the scenery, and fourteen words outline a magnificent picture of climbing high and overlooking. In late autumn, the clear sky is like the sea, and the more you look up, the more infinite you feel, so you say "high"; Kuizhou area has high mountains and dense forests. Whenever it is freezing in Chu Qing, there are often high apes whistling, empty valleys ringing and endless sorrows and joys, so it is called "sorrow"; In late autumn and September, the pool is cold and quiet, and the sandbar is small and lonely, so it is called "Qing"; The wind and frost are noble and pure, and the truth is clear, so it is called "white". Because the platform is high, the more windy it feels, it is said to be "urgent"; When the wind is strong, waterfowl fly low and hover, so they say "back". Words and expressions are extremely appropriate. "Sky high", "sand white", "ape whistling" and "bird flying" are all typical scenery with the autumn characteristics of the Three Gorges in Kuizhou. When captured in poetry, it is not only vivid in image, but also extremely lofty in realm, full of the poet's endless feelings.
Write three or four sentences about distant scenery, starting from the big picture, the first sentence is about mountain scenery, and the second sentence is about it; The next sentence is river view. Mountains and rivers crisscross, forming a very vivid Three Gorges Qiu Jingtu. The wind in late autumn is very strong, and I smell the rustling sound of fallen leaves; The canyon is deep and the current is fast, so watch the waves roll. Using "infinity" to describe "falling wood" shows its wide realm; By describing it as "Yangtze River" and "endless", we can see the infinity of great rivers. In the bleak and extremely desolate scene, there is an unrestrained momentum. The two sentences also use double-tone reduplication, which is sonorous and full of the beauty of sound and rhyme.
"people who are deeper than love are good at writing scenery." The above four sentences describe the scenery, which really set off the poet's mood and wrote the poet's sad autumn, but they did not directly use the literal meaning of "sad autumn", but infiltrated this sadness into the concrete picture. The natural scenery described in the poem not only has the specific characteristics of objective things and seasonal characteristics, but also is full of the poet's special emotional color, which shows the poet's specific mood. As an animal, the crying ape itself does not have human feelings, but for the poet in Hardship, the crying of the crying ape is full of a sad mood. Similarly, the rolling Yangtze River, rustling fallen trees, hovering birds and deserted small houses all play a role in rendering the atmosphere of the environment and setting off the poet's artistic conception. "Love moves with things, words are sent with feelings, a leaf welcomes guests, and the sound of insects is enough to attract the heart" ("Wen Xin Diao Long Search"), not to mention this desolate and cold scenery? Naturally, the poet touched the scene and caused corresponding psychological activities and emotional changes. And this psychological activity and emotional change, in turn, deepened the emotional color of the scenery. Therefore, the scenery in poetry is different from the natural scenery, and it is an objective scenery that the poet has subjectivized. In literary works, when the description of scenery reflects the author's special feelings, and when the author's subjective feelings are in harmony with the objective characteristics of scenery, its artistic charm to readers is incomparable to that of ordinary poems describing scenery.
Five or six sentences naturally transition from the above scenery description to lyricism. Write two sentences about the difficult situation of wandering for a long time due to illness and autumn scenery's sad mood. "I came from three thousand miles away. Sadness follows autumn today ",which is said from the space and is the so-called" horizontal theory "; "Let's climb this high alone with my sorrow for a hundred years" is a matter of time, that is, the so-called "longitudinal theory". Two sentences connect the preceding with the following, pointing out the main idea of the whole poem. Structurally, it is progressive, turning step by step, and contains extremely rich contents. Luo Song Da Jing said: "Wan Li" is far away; Autumn' is a sad reminder; One guest', ok; A frequent visitor, a long journey; A hundred years', twilight teeth also; Many diseases', decline disease also; Taiwan', high place also; Alone on the stage, no relatives or friends. There are eight meanings between fourteen characters, and the duality is accurate. "("He Lu "Volume 15) As a guest on the stage, this is the homesickness of the wanderer. In addition, Wan Li has been wandering from place to place for more than a hundred years, suffering from many diseases, so he has further described the feeling of loneliness and misery. The bleak autumn wind has made people feel sad, and it is even more worth taking the stage in the next year. Because of this step-by-step frustrated brushwork, the depressed emotions hidden in the poet's heart are more profound and powerful. Deep feelings come from rich life. Although this poem reflects the poet's personal experience, readers can get a glimpse of the sufferings of the broad masses of people in the war years.
The last sentence is about your poor and lonely situation and mood. On the other hand, I wrote that I was very hard, and my white hair added to my body; The next sentence says I'm down and out, sick. The whole poem ends with a heavy sigh, with deep grief and indignation, but also with deep feelings. The word "bitterness, bitterness and hatred" not only refers to the author's own difficult situation and life experience when he was a guest in Wan Li, but also refers to the social turmoil and the bitterness of the broad masses of the people at that time. "Sleepless worries and fighting" and "inability to work hard" are all "hardships and bitterness" that make the white hair on his head more and more. Now, he has been ill for many years, and his mood is naturally more lonely and more painful. At this time, he had to borrow wine to drown his sorrows, but he had to give up drinking because of illness. In this way, the poet's heart is naturally more depressed. This tortuous brushwork makes the expression of feelings more profound and painful, even if there are waves in the writing.
Du Fu himself once said: "The evening festival is getting thinner and thinner." ("Send a Boring Play to the Nineteenth Cao Chang") Ascending the Mountain is really such a good poem that is good at poetry rhythm and has always enjoyed a high reputation. From the perspective of artistic expression, the uniqueness of this article can be shown in the following two aspects: First, the work is steady and the tone is sonorous. That is to say, Hu Yinglin said, "Every sentence is a method of writing, every word is a method of writing, and the true meaning runs through it in one go" (Volume 5 of Poem Internal Compilation). The poem begins with antithesis, which is not only natural and neat, but also uses a contradictory sentence in a sentence (such as "Feng Ji"), which is structurally orderly, which not only conforms to the so-called uniformity in aesthetics, but also conforms to aesthetics. At the same time, there are many disyllabic words in the poem, with beautiful melody and harmonious syllables, which greatly enhances the musical beauty of the poem. For example, the word "bitterness, bitterness and hatred" in the couplet is syntactically juxtaposed, but it has the characteristics of four tones, and it is necessary to read one word at a time; "Xiachu" and "Xinshan" are disyllabic rhymes, and there are also "Shang" and "Ping" tones, so the syllables are particularly sonorous and should be read in two words. The magical effect of "numerous frost temples" on "turbid wine glasses" is also called "falling prevention". Readers can experience the poet's wandering pain in the deep and heavy rhyme.
Second, the lyrical brushwork of landscape writing is intricately changing but taking care of each other. The first four sentences of scenery writing are the so-called "medium of poetry"; The last four lyric sentences are the so-called "embryo of poetry". Although the writing angles are different, they all revolve around the center of the poem-"Sad Autumn". One or three sentences are all about mountain scenery; Two or four sentences are all about the river view. In the description of scenery, there are sounds (the sound of wind and apes), colors (sand and white), movements (birds flying and leaves falling) and stillness (mainland). Five or seven sentences are bitter; Six or eight sentences after another are all diseases. The bitterness and hatred caused by "sorrowful autumn" are closely related to the abstinence caused by "illness" in the content of the poem. The whole poem is mixed with scenes. Although there are such rich contents and complex feelings in the middle, the style of writing is like "a hundred rivers rush into the hole at the end of the river", which has produced a changing and harmonious artistic whole.
