Notes on "Hanjiang River Overflow"

(1) Hanjiang River: The Hanjiang River flows through Hanzhong and Ankang in Shaanxi, Shiyan, Xiangyang, Jingmen, Qianjiang, Xiantao and Xiaogan in Hubei, and joins the Yangtze River in Wuhan. In Ying Sui written by Fang Hui in Yuan Dynasty, the poem is called Looking at the Hanshui River, looking at the Hanshui River from afar. The Hanjiang River flows through Xiangyang City, which divides Xiangyang and Fancheng into two parts (collectively called "Xiangfan"). Countless battlements around Xiangfan (including many "Weng Cheng" outside Xiangyang City Gate) seem to float on both sides of the waterway in front of us. By the river, when the ship was rocking in the waves, I felt the sky shaking in the distance. Deduct the topic very aptly, and write the unique impression of "hanging pan". If it is "Looking at the Han River", there will be no such feeling. Therefore, the title of this poem should be "Over the Han River".

② Chusai: Chu-land boundary. Sanxiang, Li Xiang, steamed Hunan cuisine and Xiaoxiang.

Jingmen: The mountain named Jingmen Mountain is located on the south bank of the Yangtze River in the northwest of Yidu County, Hubei Province. It was Cisse of Chu during the Warring States Period. Nine factions and nine branches, and the Yangtze River to Xunyang is divided into nine branches. This refers to Jiujiang, Jiangxi.

④ Pu: by the water.

⑤ windy day: The scenery is good.

⑥ Shan Weng: Shan Jian, the youngest son of Dan Tao, one of the seven sages of bamboo forest in Jin Dynasty, was a general in Western Jin Dynasty. He guards Xiangyang, has political achievements, drinks good wine and gets drunk every time. This refers to local officials in Xiangyang.

Translation of Han Jiang Lai Pan

Hanshui River flows through Chusai and then folds into Sanxiang one by one. Jingmen joins nine tributaries and connects with the Yangtze River.

The Han river is vast, as if flowing out of heaven and earth; The mountains are hazy and far away in nothingness.

The county town along the river is like floating on the water; On the edge of the water and sky, the waves rolled and rolled.

The scenery in Xiangyang is really intoxicating and amazing; I want to stay here with Shan Weng, who is often drunk.

Appreciation of Hanjiang River

This poem "On the banks of the Hanshui River" can be described as Wang Yi's masterpiece.

"Three branches in the south reach Chu, and nine streams touch Jingmen", with vivid language, outlines the magnificent scenery of Hanshui River as the background of the picture. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Hubei, Hunan and other places belonged to the State of Chu, while Xiangyang was located in the northern border of the State of Chu, so it was called "Chusai". "Sanxiang", when it is said that Hunan hydrated water is Li Xiang, combined steamed water is steamed Hunan, and combined water is Xiaoxiang, it is collectively called Sanxiang; One is Xiangtan, Xiangyin and Xiangxiang in Hunan. In ancient poetry, Sanxiang generally refers to the north and south of Dongting Lake and Xiangjiang River. The mountain name "Jingmen" is in the northwest of Yidu County, Hubei Province. "Nine schools" refers to the nine tributaries of the Yangtze River. It is said that Dayu harnessed water and dug rivers to connect nine schools. The poet boated on the river, saw the vast land of ancient Chu, connected with the "Sanxiang" water rushing from Hunan, surging the Han River into the Jingjiang River and merging with the nine schools of the Yangtze River. Although the Hanshui River is not mentioned in the poem, it is enough to make people imagine the vast water potential of the Hanshui River lying across the Chu River and connecting the "Sanxiang" and "Nine Schools". The poet wrote a summary of the unseen scenes. At the end of the paper, lonely Ye Ping was gathered, and the vast river flowed on the edge of the painting, which rendered the atmosphere for the whole painting.

"This river runs through the heavens and the earth, and there are both mountains and colors", with the vision of mountains, water and colors as the framework. The Han River surged away, as if it had been rushing out of heaven and earth. There are many green hills on both sides of the strait, and the clouds are lingering, and they are hidden and present, as if nothing had happened. The first sentence says that the river is far and wide, and the second sentence sets off the vastness of the river with boundless mountains. The poet's pen and ink is extremely light, but it gives people a sense of grandeur and novelty, and its effect is far better than heavy oil paintings and colorful watercolors. And its "victory" lies in the vivid charm of the picture. Wang Shizhen said: "This river transcends heaven and earth. The colors of the mountains there are poets, but they are ignorant." Very pertinent. While "beyond heaven and earth" and "whether there is something in it" add a kind of confused, profound and inexhaustible artistic conception to poetry. The so-called "endless opinions beyond words" is the exchange of water, and the two are closely related. The opening of this couplet is blank, and the picture is dense and complicated.

As a result, the poet's pen and ink gathered from "outside the world" and wrote a magnificent picture in front of him: "The human residence seems to float on the ripples in the distant sky." Just as the poet was looking into the distance, the wind suddenly blew and the boat he was riding was ups and downs. Xiangyang city in front of us is also floating with the waves in the river. The wind is getting stronger and stronger, the waves are getting bigger and bigger, the waves are beating against the sky, and the hull is bumping as if the sky were shaking for it. Before the storm, the boat sailed gently on the river, and the battlements stood still on the shore and hung motionless in the distant sky; Suddenly, the storm came and everything moved. Here, the poet's brushwork is elegant and smooth. It is clear that the ship is fluctuating up and down, but it is said that the battlements in front are floating on the water; Obviously, it is rough, and the waves beat against the sky, but they say that the sky is shaking for it. The poet deliberately used this illusion of dynamic and static to further render the majestic water potential. The clever use of the verbs "floating" and "moving" makes the scenery described by the poet vivid and the poetry elegant. At the same time, it also shows the poet's complacent mentality of boating on the river, and also shows the majestic spirit of the river. The scene described by the poet is seen by boating, and the people on board have a turbulent illusion, which coincides with the description of Hanshui River in the poem, so these two sentences are extremely appropriate.

"These beautiful days in Xiangyang have made my old mountain enchanted! Shan Weng, namely Shan Jian, was born in Shaanxi. Biography of Shan Jian in the Book of Jin said that he was a general who conquered the south and defended Xiangyang. The landscape of the local Xi Garden is very good. Shan Jian often goes to Xi's swimming pool to get drunk. The poet wants to get drunk with Shan Jian and express his love for Xiangyang scenery. This situation is also integrated in the previous landscape description, full of positive and optimistic emotions. Poets in couplets express their feelings directly and their nostalgia for mountains and rivers.

This poem shows readers an ink and wash landscape painting with elegant colors, fresh style and beautiful artistic conception. The layout of the picture, dense and alternating, combined with simple control and complex, freehand brushwork in form, light pen and light ink, emotional optimism, gives people a beautiful enjoyment. Yin Kun, a contemporary of Wang Wei, said in "The Collection of He Yue Ling": "Uyghur poetry is elegant, full of new ideas, and its conception is just right. It's a pearl in spring, painted on the wall. " This poem can embody this feature very well.
