Empty Mountain (), the weather is late and autumn is coming.

After the new rain in the empty mountains, the weather comes late in autumn.

From "Dwelling in the Mountains in the Twilight of Autumn" by Wang Wei, a poet of the Tang Dynasty

After the new rain in the empty mountains, autumn comes late.

The bright moon shines among the pines, and the clear spring rocks flow upward.

The bamboo noise returns to Huan Nu, and the lotus moves off the fishing boat.

Let the spring fragrance rest at will, and the kings and grandsons can stay.

Appreciation

This poem describes the fresh, quiet, tranquil and beautiful dusk beauty of autumn in the mountains. The Wangchuan Villa where Wang Wei lives is at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, so it is called Mountain Residence. After an autumn rain, the autumn mountains are like wash, refreshing and pleasant. It was almost dusk, the sun was setting and the moon was rising. The pine forest was quiet and the stream was clear. Huan Nu returned and the fishing boat followed. Such a beautiful autumn scene, elegant and interesting, can make the princes and grandsons be intoxicated and forget the worldly affairs. This poem starts with the word "empty" and has a noble rhyme, setting an ethereal and pure tone for the whole poem. The whole poem combines movement and stillness, complementing each other and bringing out the best in each other. The moonlight shining on the pine forest is static, while the clear spring overflowing is dynamic. The first four sentences describe the tranquility of the evening scene in the autumn mountains, and the five or six sentences describe the noise of Huannu's fishing boat. The four couplets of the poem are about feeling, vision, hearing, and feelings respectively. They are interesting because of the images and emotional because of the scenery. It reflects the laziness and greed of officials and officials in today's society, writes the poet's own noble sentiments, writes about the carefree life, and expresses the author's longing for this kind of life. It also expresses the author's admiration for a quiet and indifferent pastoral life, his unwillingness to join in the evil, and his attitude towards life that is pure and self-sufficient. There is another point worth noting: ancient literati often used Qingqiu to write about sadness, and this poem is a masterpiece of Qingqiu. "Additional Commentary on the Zhengsheng of Tang Poems" Guo Yun: "The color and rhyme are exquisite." "Explanation of Tang Poems": "Elegance and blandness are interesting." "Tang Poetry Ju": "You Cheng originally started from Gongli, and in his later years he added plainness, so "Detailed Explanation of Selected Tang Poems" Wang Yunyi said: "The first part is about the autumn scenery of living in the mountains, and the second part is about romance, and the intention of not wanting to be an official can be seen."

This famous poem about landscapes, The poet's noble feelings and pursuit of the ideal state are entrusted in the poetic and picturesque atmosphere. The two middle couplets of the poem both describe scenery, but each has its own emphasis. The chin couplet focuses on describing objects, and the fragrant things are used to clarify the ambition; the neck couplet focuses on people, and the people are harmonious and political. At the same time, the two complement each other. Spring water, green pines, green bamboos, and green lotus can be said to be the portrayal of the poet's noble sentiments and the environment for the poet's ideal state.

Since the poet is so noble, and he has found a satisfactory paradise in the seemingly "empty mountain", he can't help but say: "Let the spring fragrance rest at will, and the kings and grandsons can stay!" Originally! , "Chu Ci: Recruiting Hermits" said: "When Wang Sunxi returns, he cannot stay in the mountains for long!" The poet's experience is exactly the opposite. He feels that "in the mountains" is better than "in the court", clean and simple, and can stay away from officialdom and keep clean, so he Decided to go into seclusion.

An important artistic technique of this poem is to use natural beauty to express the poet's personality beauty and the beauty of an ideal society. On the surface, this poem only uses the method of "fu" to model mountains and rivers, and to describe the scenery in detail and touchingly. In fact, the whole poem is a metaphor. The poet expresses his aspirations through the description of the landscape, which is rich in meaning and thought-provoking. Wang Wei's life ambition is also hidden between the lines.

Center: Writing about a quiet and peaceful place expresses the poet's compliance with nature and his comfort.
