Qu Yuan's Famous Sentences (Typical Interpretation)
0 1, the bird flies home, and the fox will die first. From Qu Yuan's "Nine Chapters of Mourning", in 278 BC, General Qin attacked Ying, the capital of Chu, and poets wrote poems to mourn. These two poems are convenient for mourning and show nostalgia for the old country. The bird looking for a place to live in his hometown and the fox facing the cave are the embodiment of the poet himself even if he dies.
02. Drinking Mulan in the morning reveals water, and drinking Qiuju in the evening reveals British autumn. Qu Yuan's Li Sao. "Luolu" and "Luoying" are noble and fragrant things. The poet said that eating them is spiritual and has nothing to do with the literal meaning. This sentence is exquisite in image and ethereal in realm, which makes people feel clear.
03. Don't be sad, don't be sad, be apart, be happy, be happy, and be new to each other. This is about the sadness of lovers after parting. The first sentence is about the sadness in reality, and the second sentence is about the infinite attachment in the aftertaste. Although it is true, it is also wonderful to sing and sigh.
04, the world is turbid, I am alone, everyone is drunk, and I wake up alone. Qu yuan's fisherman. These two poems not only reflect the poet's unusual personality, but also reveal the reasons why he was devastated. In the poet's view, the world he lives in is at best a den of evil people and practices, a place full of drunkards. Poet, anger and desolation reveal infinite loneliness.

Brief introduction of poet Qu Yuan
Chu was an outstanding politician and patriotic poet at the end of the Warring States Period. His name is Ping, the word Ziyuan, and he is a descendant of Qu Xian, the son of Xiong Tong, from Danyang (now Zigui, Hubei).
Qu Yuan experienced three periods in his life: Chu Weiwang, Chu Huaiwang and King Xiang of Qing Dynasty, and his main activities were in the period of Chu Huaiwang. This period is the eve of China's imminent reunification. "Qin Shihuang is horizontal, and the king of Chu is vertical." Qu Yuan was born in a noble family and was good at dealing with chaos, so he was favored by Chu Huaiwang in his early years and was a leftist. In order to realize the great cause of reunifying Chu, Dr. San Lv actively assisted Chu Huaiwang in reforming the country. At one time, there was a situation in Chu that the country was rich and the people were strong, and the princes were hard to hope for. However, due to the sharp contradiction between Qu Yuan and the decadent aristocratic group of Chu State in internal affairs and diplomacy, and the jealousy of Shangguan doctor and others, Qu Yuan was later framed by a group of little people and alienated by Chu Huaiwang.
In the 15th year of Wang Huai (the first 304 years), Zhang Yi paid off Shanxi merchants, Zilan and Zheng Xiu as spies with a large sum of money. At the same time, he tricked Wang Huai into breaking off diplomatic relations. After being cheated, he became angry from embarrassment and sent troops to Qin twice, both of which were defeated. So Qu Yuan was ordered to send troops to Qi State to rebuild the good relationship between Qi and Chu. Here, Zhang Yi once again went from Qin to Chu.
In the thirty years of Wang Huai, Qu Yuan returned to Ying Du. In the same year, Qin made an appointment with the military attache and was detained by Qin. Finally died in the state of Qin. After Wang Xiang ascended the throne, he continued to implement the policy of surrender. Qu Yuan was expelled again and exiled to Jiangnan, wandering between Yuan and Xiang. In the 21st year (278 BC), the state of Qin conquered Baicheng.
Qu Yuan's works include Li Sao, Tian Wen, Nine Songs (1 1), Nine Chapters (9) and Evocation, with a total of 23 articles. In addition, whether Buju and Fisherman were written by Qu Yuan is still controversial in academic circles. It put forward 172 questions to the sky with questions, involving astronomy, geography, literature, philosophy and many other fields, which showed the poet's bold suspicion of traditional ideas and the scientific spirit of pursuing truth. Nine Songs is a set of music songs for offering sacrifices to gods based on folk songs. A large number of images of gods are created in the poems, most of which are love songs between man and god.
Qu Yuan's works record his persistence in the ideal of "beautiful politics" and his struggle against the decadent aristocratic groups in Chu. His ideal of "beautiful politics" is reflected in his works, that is, "nurturing talents and empowering them, not following the demands" (Li Sao). The so-called "cultivating talents and appointing talents" means selecting truly talented people to govern the country and oppose the world. It shows that it is reasonable to select talents regardless of their status. The so-called "obeying the law without being fully satisfied" means perfecting the statutes, that is, the laws are not expensive and limiting the privileges of the old nobles. Qu Yuan's ideal of "beautiful politics" reflects his sharp opposition to the decadent aristocratic groups in Chu and expresses his progressive demand of getting rid of bad politics, with the ultimate goal of saving the motherland from peril and making Chu rich and strong. Related to this, Qu Yuan's works also profoundly reveal Chu. At the same time, he showed his determination to care about the country and people, love the country and devote himself to the motherland. Although Qu Yuan was exiled or even exiled, he always thought about the rise and fall of the motherland and the sufferings of the people, and hoped that the King of Chu would repent and turn over a new leaf, work hard and be the master of rejuvenation. He knows that loyalty to honesty and frankness will lead to disaster, but he always "bears it". Knowing that he faced many dangers, he could have gone to other countries to find a way out in the era of "using Chu materials", but he refused to leave Chu, which showed his infinite loyalty to the motherland and his personality and will to "win glory with the sun and the moon".
The characteristics of Qu Yuan's poetry creation;
Qu Yuan's works express strong and tragic feelings with unrestrained writing style. Han Confucianism once said that Li Sao and Xiaoya in The Book of Songs are both works of no pain. Yuan Hongdao, a poet in the Ming Dynasty, refuted in Xu Xiaoxiu's poems that Li Sao was "extremely angry" and "bitterly criticized" his henchmen and the king of Chu, and "was content with the so-called resentment without harming others." It is pointed out that "vigorous, steep and exposed" is the characteristic of "Chu style" His opinion is obviously correct. Moreover, Qu Yuan's praise of his personality is spontaneous and true. Sing the love of the gods, passionate and incisive; Celebrating the sacrifice of martyrs is passionate, generous and tragic. In a word, compared with the restrained and gentle emotional expression in The Book of Songs, Qu Yuan's creation shows emotional liberation to a certain extent, thus creating a brand-new poetic style full of vitality and strong appeal. Due to the need of this kind of emotional expression, Qu Yuan can't be satisfied with plain writing techniques, but borrows a lot of mythological materials from Chu and uses absurd fantasies to greatly expand the realm of poetry and show magnificent features. This opened up a new path for the creation of China's classical poetry. Poets with strong personality and emotion in later generations, such as Li Bai and Li He, were greatly inspired.
Qu Yuan is a poet who loves beauty. He does not deny the beauty of all kinds of art with a narrow utilitarian view. In "Nine Songs" and "Evocation of Soul", there are warm scenes of music, songs and dances and the feelings caused by them everywhere. In Qu Yuan's works, it is a beautiful scene of "forcing prostitution to entertain people, and the viewer forgets to return". Similarly, his poems also like a lot of colorful words. He also developed the figurative techniques in The Book of Songs, endowing plants, fish, insects, birds and animals, Yun Ni and other natural things with human will and life, so as to pin their thoughts and feelings and increase the aesthetic feeling of poetry. Generally speaking, the schools of literary beauty in China ancient literature can be traced back to Qu Yuan.
In the form of poetry, Qu Yuan broke the short and pithy system of The Book of Songs, and created a "Sao-style poem" with long or short sentence patterns, grand length and rich and complicated connotations, which is also of great significance.
In a word, The Songs of the South initiated by Qu Yuan, together with The Book of Songs, constitute the two major sources of China's poetry and even the whole China literature, and have exerted an infinite influence on later literature. However, due to the development of the times and the cultural differences between the north and the south, the Songs of the South has made remarkable progress compared with the Book of Songs. Therefore, its influence on later literature is more on the Book of Songs.
