Brief introduction of Wen Tianxiang's life

Brief introduction of Wen Tianxiang's life:

Wen Tianxiang was admitted to Jinshi at the age of twenty and got the correct answer in Ying Ji Hall. At that time, Song Lizong had been in office for a long time, and he gradually became lazy in managing political affairs. Wen Tianxiang discusses policies with the theme of "Law and Heaven", with more than 10,000 words. He finished it without writing a draft. Song Lizong personally selected him as the first place.

A.D. 1275 (the first year of Deyou in Song Gongdi), Yuan soldiers went south, formed an uprising army in Ganzhou, and entered Wei 'an (now Hangzhou, Zhejiang). The following year, in addition to the right prime minister and an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, he was sent to the Yuan army to negotiate peace, was detained, and then fled to Wenzhou, and moved to Jiangxi, Fujian, Ling and other places to recover many counties.

A.D. 1278 (the first year of Xiangxing at the end of Song Dynasty) was defeated and captured, and he died in Dadu (now Beijing). Can write poems and songs, and write more about his unyielding determination to die.

Wen Tianxiang's literary creation, especially his poetry creation, has two remarkable characteristics, which are divided into two stages: the early stage and the late stage. The so-called prophase refers to the stage when Ganzhou started to go to Zhou Zhen at night after serving him.

At that time, although the small court in the Southern Song Dynasty was in a difficult autumn, the rulers in the dynasty were also ignorant and rich, but Wen Tianxiang himself was accumulating troops. They came to the military camp by themselves, and they are a team with clear love and hate and fighting capacity.

Therefore, in Wen Tianxiang's mind, there is hope for reviving the Southern Song Dynasty and recovering lost land. Poems written in this period are characterized by freshness, liveliness, boldness and rich feelings, and they often inspire themselves with full fighting spirit, which makes people feel deeply when they read them. Such as the poem "Go to Que".

It can be seen from these poems that Wen Tianxiang's eyes seem to have seen a bright future and hope for revival. Later, Li Tingzhi hinted that Miao Zaicheng would kill Wen Tianxiang to avoid worries. Miao Zaicheng decided to discuss with Wen Tianxiang * * * to regain his glory. He felt that Li's statement was wrong, but he dared not disobey it. He set up a trick of "seeing the city" to lure Wen Tianxiang out of the city, and then refused.

Wen Tianxiang suffered another setback. But instead of being discouraged, he took on a new battle with high spirits. He wrote a long poem "In the Middle of Gaosha Road", which tells the whole dangerous life after he left Zhou Zhen in chronological order in plain and fluent prose language, making people feel as if they were there.

There are five words in each sentence of the whole poem, and every other sentence rhymes, which lasts for more than 80 rhymes and rhymes to the end. I feel very confused after reading this poem. No wonder later generations read this poem and thought it could be compared with the Northern Expedition written by Du Fu. During this period, Wen Tianxiang wrote many poems, most of which are inspirational, which can be said to be the middle of two characteristic periods, that is, the transitional period.
