Why does the author have a soft spot for Shuo Fang's snow? This emotional logic has been developed in detail in the article. The first thing mentioned at the beginning of the article is the rain that warms the country. In the eyes of knowledgeable people, it is monotonous. And with colorful beauty, it is the snow in the south of the Yangtze River. Here, the author wrote down the snow in the south of the Yangtze River with emotional brushstrokes. It has a colorful environment, and all kinds of flowers grow in the snowfield. "Many bees are busy" makes people think "Winter has come, can spring be far behind?" In the author's eyes, the snow in the south of the Yangtze River is also associated with children's happiness. Although the children's hands are red with cold, it also brings them happy games. The vivid description of Lohan carving snow is permeated with the author's tenderness. Vivid words such as "white", "bright" and "sparkling" not only incorporate the author's fond memories of southern winter, but also depict pleasant scenes through children's eyes. The snow in the south of the Yangtze River reveals abundant vitality and contains life.
However, in the following paragraphs, the author's style has undergone subtle changes. The snow in the ocean is the most precious memory in the snow area in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is also a symbol of beauty. But the next day, "sunny days came to soothe his skin, and cold nights made him freeze", time made beauty fade, and "the rouge on his mouth faded", and beauty seemed to be stained with some discordant colors.
At this time, the "snowflake in the north" appeared, and it announced its existence to the world with a lonely and uncompromising attitude. It "shines brightly in the sun, just like a fog containing flames." In loneliness, the snow in the north wrote a most touching movement: in the "cold sky", the snow in the north, like a fighter plane, "flies vigorously" permeates space, "makes space spin and twinkle", like a bold and unrestrained challenger.
From the description of snow in the north and south, Lu Xun appreciates Snow in the North more. Although the snow in Jiangnan is beautiful, in Lu Xun's eyes, this beauty will not last long without tempering. Lu Xun pays more attention to an independent and flamboyant personality spirit, which is Lu Xun's consistent motivation. As he said in an article, "Standing in the desert, watching flying sand and stones, you will laugh when you are happy, shout when you are sad, and curse when you are angry. Even if you are covered in gravel, you will always feel your blood coagulation and feel that there are patterns. " In the article, the snow in the north "never sticks", "flies", "rotates" and "rises" is the most vivid embodiment of this spirit.
When flying, the snow in the north seems a little lonely, but it is this loneliness that highlights the value of self-persistence, which is also the difference between Lu Xun and ordinary writers: he is willing to be misunderstood, determined to die and live, and "saved from hopelessness."
Second, the problem research
1. Si Nuo is most clear about Lu Xun's prose poetry collection Weeds. Its scenery description is meticulous and vivid, and its words are accurate. Describe the snow scene in the south of the Yangtze River and the snow scene in the north, and reflect the author's tendency in comparison. The snow in the south of the Yangtze River is beautiful, but it is warm and beautiful. Comparatively speaking, the most valuable thing is the snow in the north, struggling alone in a lonely situation. This emotional orientation needs careful analysis when reading.
Lu Xun's language style is very unique. For example, after describing the snow in the south of the Yangtze River, he used a sharp "but" to describe the snow in the north. It seems that there is no need for a turning point, but after adding this "but", the emotional tendency is more obvious. This point needs to be carefully understood.

Ask the students to find out the sentences describing the snow in the south and the snow in the north respectively and understand their different meanings.
Thirdly, Mr. Lu Xun once said that his philosophy is all in Weeds, so it is still difficult for students to understand Weeds at present, but we can pick out several articles describing natural scenery in Weeds, such as Autumn Night, Good Story and Waxy Leaves, so that students can feel the difference between realism and symbolism in nature description.

I. Searching for the Soul (Excerpt) (Qian Liqun)
(Lu Xun) The reason why we call for the wildness and love of nature is precisely to inject vitality into the realistic battle between human beings. So he repeatedly said that he emphasized "overcoming all difficulties by self-reliance, not really persuading people to go up the mountain"; I don't want to hide in the countryside where "the crane is singing and the white clouds are rising". He wants to "live in the world". Even if he is isolated and excluded, he will not leave the "sea of people" and let the "heavy bell" of life "ring deep and lonely in the sea of people" forever. It is in this sense that Lu Xun declared that he was "insensitive to natural beauty and self-hatred, so he was not very moved even when he sang praises to beautiful days", but he never forgot to record the "remains" of human struggle history. Lu Xun is essentially an ideological fighter with a strong sense of society and history. It is meaningless for him to leave the nature and natural beauty of social life. He praised nature and its beauty, and devoted himself to discovering society and himself.
From this aesthetic point of view, Lu Xun's favorite natural beauty is "the scenery caused by the struggle between man and nature", from which we can find the deep and heroic struggle between society and life and the beauty of Gu Zhuo's strength. In "Wild Grass", Lu Xun once described the beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, such as a much-told story. His focus is still on capturing the beauty of "flying" from "beautiful people and beautiful things that are always vivid and always unfolding", so as to feel the existence of a vitality. But on the whole, he is "insensitive" to the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan. He bluntly said: "I don't love Jiangnan. Exquisite is exquisite but stingy. " He criticized the scenery in Hangzhou as "petty and lacking in momentum" and thought that "the scenery in the north is great, but it is not desolate and more suitable for living". In "Wild Grass Snow", he is obviously more infatuated with the snow in the north than Jiangnan Snow, which moistens the beauty-
After flying, they will always be shattered. They will never stick together and scatter on the house, the ground and the hay. That's it. The snow on the house has already been digested because the fire in the house is warm. In addition, on a sunny day, a whirlwind suddenly came. It flew vigorously and gave off dazzling light in the sun, such as fog with flames, which whirled up and filled the space, making the space whirl up and flicker.
In the boundless wilderness, under the cold sky, the shining soul of rain is spinning and rising. ...
It is also the spiritual soul of human beings, the spiritual soul of Lu Xun-struggle, progress and shine.
Lu Xun finally discovered and affirmed man and himself in the vast and moving "nature".

Second, "Scream in the Iron House" (excerpt) (Leo Oufan Lee)
Perhaps the best lyrical chapter in the anthology is Snow, in which the lyrical scene is inspired by the contrast between the north and the south: the two images of snow become metaphors of the poet's past youth and present. The description of the snow scene in the south is rich in colors: red camellia, plum blossoms hidden in white, dark yellow wintersweet, cold green weeds, and colorful snow arhats piled up by children as the central image. However, the snow in the north where the poet lives now is colorless, such as powder and sand, and never touches his body. These descriptions can be said to be true, but when snow turns into rain, the scenery written is not so realistic:
In the boundless wilderness, under the cold sky, the shining soul of rain is spinning and rising. ...
Yes, it is lonely snow, dead rain and the soul of rain.
In these lyric poems, the description of natural scenery seems to have been saturated with fantasy and metaphorical images. This not only endows Lu Xun's prose with poetry, but also determines the "modernity" of Lu Xun's prose poems because he boldly left the use of natural images in China's ancient poems. Puska once thought that Lu Xun's prose poems read like Baudelaire's. If Lu Xun's novels have many symbolic attributes, they are mainly realistic. His prose poems, however, are definitely symbolic structures. Together with many novels and dramatic techniques, they seem to be telling a fictional "story" in the field of dreams or fables.

Third, the perfect unity of "beauty" and "magnificence" (excerpt) (Zhang Xiangdong)
/kloc-at the end of 0/924, it snowed in the north. 1February 3 1 day, Lu Xun wrote in his diary: "Rain and snow. ..... In the afternoon, it snows at night. " The next day, it was sunny, and Lu Xun's diary also said: "The wind blows snow." These seven words are quite poetic. It can be seen that the author's "sighing about the four seasons and thinking about everything" (Lu Ji's "Wen Fu") has sprouted the creative impulse at this time. Seventeen days later, a prose poem entitled Snow was born. Obviously, the natural scene in reality gives the author the impression that snow is an opportunity. However, snow is not a simple reproduction and expansion of natural landscape. The author spreads the wings of imagination, associates the flying snow in front of him with the snow scene in the south of the Yangtze River, and his thoughts churn in memory and reality. Finally, he turned his idea into a wonderful snow scene in the south and north:
The snow in Jiangnan is very beautiful. That's the news of youth that is still looming, and it's the skin of a very strong virgin. In the snowfield, there are blood-red camellias, single-petal plum blossoms with dark green in white and wintersweet with dark yellow chin; There are cool green weeds under the snow. Hu Die did not; I really can't remember whether bees come to collect honey from camellia and plum blossoms. But my eyes seem to see flowers blooming in the snow in winter, and many bees are busy flying. I can hear their buzzing sound.
This snow scene is beautifully written and colorful. At first, the word "nourishing beauty" accurately summarized the characteristics of Jiangnan snow; Then, with the metaphor of "faint youth breath" and "extremely strong virgin skin", one is empty and the other is real, which introduces a kind of hazy beauty of "seeing flowers in the fog", which makes people have infinite reverie, and the author's flying appearance is also full of modality when writing. In the snowy-white background, Zhu Bao Camellia is dotted with blood red, single plum blossom is light green, wintersweet is dark yellow and weeds are cool green. What a colorful world! The "beauty" of Jiangnan snow is further concretized. The last two sentences are even more ingenious. The author writes that bees are flying around among the flowers, making a lot of noise, and explains "as if they saw it" by "not remembering the truth". The blur of memory sets off the beautiful scenery in front of us, which is very natural and true, just like the famous sentence "An apricot leaves the wall and branches spring". The whole picture is full of vitality because of the existence of this imaginary bee. Isn't it a blur?
Jiangnan is the author's hometown, where he lived when he was a child, leaving many beautiful memories in the author's mind. Such as the magical life world of young people ("Cry for Hometown"); Eat a boat of Podocarpus with friends in the evening ("scream, social play"); There are countless stories and interesting Herb Garden ("Flowers bloom in the morning, from Herb Garden to San Tan Yin Yue") ... all of which are poetic and picturesque by the author. Before and after the creation of Snow, the author really often recalls his hometown scenery and childhood life. Within a month after the completion of Snow, other works such as Kite and Good Story came out one after another. Therefore, in Snow, the author not only depicts a beautiful snow scene in the south of the Yangtze River, but also reproduces a beautiful childhood scene.
"Children, little hands are red with cold, like ginger with purple buds, and seven or eight of them are together to make snow arhats." In the happy children's world, there are innocent adults mixed in, which adds interest to life. Here, the author focuses on the image of Sherman, which is associated with children's joy. At first, "although it was just a pile up and down, in the end it was impossible to tell whether it was a gourd doll or a arhat, but it was very white and bright, and it was bonded with its own water, and the whole ground was shining." When children decorate it with longan seeds and rouge lipstick, it is "sitting in the snow with red lips burning eyes" What a poetic image this is! It not only embodies the beauty of the snow scene in the south of the Yangtze River, but also sets off the northern scenery in front of us, making the artistic conception more novel and unique, full of business and charm.
However, the snow in the poem is another scene. It has neither the "nourishing beauty" of Jiangnan snow nor the company of exotic flowers and plants, but it has an independent and unrestrained character. You see:
On a sunny day, a whirlwind suddenly came. It flew vigorously, shining brightly in the sun, like a fog with flames, rotating and rising, permeating the space, making the space rotate and flicker.
In the boundless wilderness, under the cold sky, it is spinning and rising. ...
What a sad and tragic picture this is! What a spectacular sight! Is this a photo of the natural landscape? This description with artistic exaggeration is the image expression of the author's surging passion in his chest. It is understandable that the author describes Master's studies in this way. We know that although there are many "beautiful people and beautiful things" in the author's memories and dreams (The Good Story of Weeds), his real environment is extremely bad. But for Lu Xun, "such a soldier" can sharpen the will of life and inspire the fighting pride. Therefore, when writing the snow, the author focuses on three-dimensional description to highlight the majestic and unstoppable momentum of the snow: "in the boundless wilderness, under the chilly sky", "flying snow all over the sky" and "like a fog with flames", which not only "rises", "rotates" and "shines" itself, but also makes the whole ". Only a few strokes, the flying snow in the north reveals earth-shattering power, imposing manner, and naturally reminds readers of the author's arduous and fascinating battle in that days of darkness!
Beautiful things are beautiful in the state of relative unity and balance of contradictions, and often show harmony, tranquility and elegance in form; Magnificence is that the subject and object of things are in the intensification of contradictions, thus producing an irresistible momentum and overwhelming power. From the previous analysis, we can see that the author has won the essence of artistic conception creation and is familiar with the dialectics of artistic description. When writing the snow scene in the south of the Yangtze River, he focuses on the description of static beauty, and uses warm adjectives to make the brushwork dense and soothing, giving people a sense of peace and tranquility. The noise of bees and the children's laughter add to the idyllic quiet atmosphere. The description of snow scenery in Shuo Fang focuses on dynamic performance. Master Xue's "powder like sand" seems lonely, but his "never touching" has implied a sense of movement and trend, and his brushwork is bold, rough and rapid, which has caused the meaning of "curling". 〉〉〉〉〉〉〉〉〉〉〉〉〉〉〉〉〉〉㋅1229 See Ouyang Xiu's poem of June 1st. ), in this description, two pictures full of the author's feelings jump from the page, "as if in front of us", which has a strong artistic appeal.
However, how are these two different aesthetic forms unified in a perfect artistic whole?
In "Snow", although the author wrote the beauty of the snow scene in the south of the Yangtze River, the joy of children and the interest of Lohan snow, showing his nostalgia for his hometown and his regret for the beautiful things because Lohan snow melted, the author did not indulge in beautiful but illusory fantasies and sought spiritual comfort. What he really yearns for is the magnificent realistic fighting life, and he is eager to draw courage and strength from the great power of nature and keep fighting youth forever. So, facing the real scene, he wrote:
Snowflakes in the north, flying around, always look like powder and sand. They never stick together and are scattered on the house, the ground and the hay. That's it.
Contrary to the tender and lingering emotions in the past, the tone is extremely strong and decisive, which not only depicts the texture and form of the master, but also reveals that the author "dares to face the bleak life" and resolutely cuts off his thoughts and emotions that are extremely incompatible with social reality. Then, describing the majestic momentum and great power of flying snow heartily is not the image portrayal of the author's indomitable fighting outlook on life? The loneliness of the master's degree also reflects the figure of the author "He Ji wanders alone".
In a word, the harmonious unity of the two images of beauty and magnificence in Snow is not the result of their addition, nor is it the mutual supplement, infiltration, entanglement and struggle between the two themes. Although there are differences in the composition factors between the two aesthetic forms, they are by no means opposite, but they are the same in fundamental ownership, and both are the embodiment that beauty conforms to the law of development of things. The author writes about the beauty of Jiangnan Snow precisely to set off the splendor of Shuoxue, which is almost "promoting first and then restraining" in artistic expression. Therefore, we can find the key to understand the problem from the conception of the work. Looking at the works from the viewpoint of system theory, we will find an interesting fact: three quarters of this lyric short chapter, which aims to highlight the flying snow in Shuotian, is devoted to the snow scene in the south of the Yangtze River, and almost half of the words are about the image of Xue Hai. The author never cherishes ink like gold, let alone prose poems, so this is by no means a matter of speed, but a matter of letter and pen. Obviously, this snow arhat was carefully designed by the author. From the description of the snow scene in Jiangnan, it is the focus of composition. The author first draws a panoramic view of the snow scene in the south of the Yangtze River, then outlines the close-up of children playing in the snow, and finally highlights the close-up of "Big Lohan" sitting in the snow, forming the level of artistic conception and depth of field, making the picture particularly vivid and moving; More importantly, however, the Snow Lohan is a bridge connecting the scenery of Shuoxue in content and structure. Although the image of Xue Luohan is "white and bright" and beautiful, once upon a time, it turned into nothingness:
The next day, several children came to see him and asked him. By the way, he clapped his hands, nodded and smiled. But he finally sat alone. Sunny days came to soothe his skin again, and cold nights turned him into opaque crystals. The continuous sunny days made him wonder what it was, and the rouge on his mouth gradually faded.
This montage, which is similar to a movie, shows the melting process of the wall of the snowy ocean in detail with a series of "shots", suggesting that peaceful and elegant things are beautiful, but they cannot withstand the impact of external forces and should not be too nostalgic. Here, the author takes reality as reality, "turns scenery into emotion", from imagination to reality, advances layer by layer, and the brush strokes leap with emotion. The cheerful mood gradually deepened because of Luo Hanxue's gradual disappearance, and then immediately entered the description of Shuoxue. Readers not only don't feel abrupt, but feel depressed again because of the sharp turn of the author's pen, producing a strong sound, which is as exciting as the author's learning. Encouragement ... if music is used as an analogy, then this work is peaceful and gradually cheerful. After a gloomy transition, it turned to a high-pitched and intense voice, and finally reached the artistic realm of turbulent sound waves.
The artistic conception with profound ideological implications is not the result of the author's sudden ingenious writing and random dyeing, but the crystallization of the author's long-term brewing and careful conception. The two snow scenes with different moods in Snow are precisely in the subtle structure of the work, and through the melting and casting of the author's feelings, they have become a seamless artistic whole, which makes the artistic conception of the whole work distant, profound and unique, and produces a magnificent spatial beauty. When reading this work, we can not only appreciate the beauty of snow in the south of the Yangtze River and the magnificence of flying snow in the north, but also feel the author's broad mind and strong fighting spirit. Therefore, the prose poem Snow is not only an extraordinary swan song of snow, but also a spiritual hymn of people resounding through the sky!
