Appreciation of Tao Yuanming's Parallel Preface to You Xie Chuan

【 Foreword 】 On the fifth day of the first month, the heart was calm and the weather was beautiful. He and Eelsen traveled in Xiechuan. Facing the long stream, looking at Zengcheng in the distance, carp jump in the evening and seagulls fly in the wind. The blessed people in the south have their old names, and they are no longer sighing. If my husband has been to the city and no one picks him up, he stands out in the middle and thinks of Lingshan in the distance. He has a good name. I am happy with my shortcomings and write poems at a speed of * * *. Sadly, the sun and moon will go, and I won't stay in my year. Every village is sparsely populated to commemorate its time.

At the age of 50, my life is about to retire. I think in my arms and travel here in the morning. The air and the sky are only clear, and the class sits in the far stream.

Weak turbulence gallops, idle valleys crow gulls. Jiongze distracted his eyes, but Myanmar saw Zeng Qiu. Although it is a 10% discount show, Gu Zhan is unparalleled.

Holding a kettle to pick up guests and couples will pay more to attract them. Unknown from now on, should it be like this? Stay away from love in the middle, forget the care for thousands of years.

And be happy today, tomorrow is not what you want.

Jin 'an Yi Xi ten years (4 14), the author is 50 years old. On the fifth day of the first month, "the sky is clear, the scenery is leisurely and beautiful", and he traveled in Xiechuan with his second and third neighbors. On the one hand, the author thinks that the years are fleeting, on the other hand, he likes this pleasant scenery, and he can't help but be elated and enjoy it. This poem truly records the author's temporary mood in the first half century. Xiechuan, whose location is unknown, is near Nancun where the poet lives.

The first four sentences of this poem write about the reasons for traveling. Zhang Heng's Four Fu Xuan said: "Spring begins at the beginning of a year." Opening a year means the beginning of a year. With the arrival of the new year, the poet has entered the fiftieth year (the "fifty" in some engravings is "five days", which cannot be followed). The ancients said, "People live a hundred years." (Zhuangzi Stole Foot) This often leads people to sigh that they were born less than 100. Entering 50, just after noon and autumn, is extremely amazing and touching. Kong Rong once said, "For fifty years." (Shangshu Xiaozhang Sheng) The first sentence uses "Shu", which has the same meaning. They all showed surprise, surprise and generosity. At fifty-one, it is not far from returning to the air and ending life ("Huainanzi Spiritual Practice": "If you die, you will return." Say: "Stop, stop." ) It is necessary to "read in your arms". So, on the fifth day of Prosperity and Beauty, he made this trip.

In the second section, the following eight sentences "Qi and the sky are only bright" fully wrote the word "swim". Under the blue sky, tourists are in groups of three or five. The landscape is presented one by one: colorful fish nearby are swimming in the micro-stream, and seagulls singing in the empty valley are flying high. The author wrote with colorful pen and ink that people who travel and fly are so complacent, and the air and underwater are full of vitality, which naturally contains his joy and yearning. From a distance, the lake is deep and wide, and the mountains are towering, which also constitutes a beautiful environment, which is fascinating. In particular, this Zengqiu (referring to Lushan Mountain on the side of Lushan Mountain) not only reminds people of the preciseness of Kunlun Mountain (Zhang Hengchuan in the Later Han Dynasty quoted Huainanzi as saying: "Kunlun has a city, nine miles long, and there is a fairy tree in the west"); Moreover, it is "independent and outstanding" (although it is not as heavy as Zengcheng in Kunlun Mountain), which is unparalleled enough to enlighten people's personality cultivation. The preface says: "I am glad of my shortcomings. I write poems at a speed of * * *." We should thank Zeng Qiu because it induced us to leave this good poem to the world!

In the three sections, the four sentences of "welcome couples with pots" are written about the attractive scenery and the neighbors drinking happily, which makes the poet feel "unknown from now on, so nothing". This is the natural idea of people who love and insist on life and good things-the beauty of scenery, human feelings and life written in poems. The author poured out all the feelings in people's hearts in simple and natural language.

At the end of the four sentences, write the wine half drunk, which means it is suitable for the realm of love. The ancients said, "If you are born before you are a hundred years old, you will always worry about being a thousand years old." ("Nineteen Ancient Poems") But the author sang "Forget him for a thousand years" with high spirits, and his outlook on life was detached. He added: "And be happy today, tomorrow is not what you want." This is the author's enthusiastic admiration for the beautiful days, beautiful scenery, beautiful couples and winning the tour, which is completely different from the decadent song "Drink now and worry now".

In Lu Xun's legacy, there is a book dedicated to the handwriting of this poem "Guangping My Friend" (see the appendix of Lu Xun's Poems). Although it was not written in time, it should not be long before he made some famous comments on Tao. It was written in the early thirties. From Lu Xun's love and positive attitude towards this poem, we can also see the influence of this poem on later generations. (Cao Rongnan)
