Creation background
This word was written by the author during the Mid-Autumn Festival in Song Shenzong on 1076 (the ninth year of Xining). In A.D. 1074 (the seventh year of Xining), Su Shi knew Mizhou. After arriving in Michigan, this wish still cannot be realized. On the Mid-Autumn Festival in A.D. 1076, the moon was bright and Yin Hui was everywhere. The poet and his younger brother Su Zhe had not been reunited for seven years. At this moment, the poet is facing a bright moon, and his heart is full of ups and downs, so he wrote this famous article with the strength of wine.
works appreciation
Su Shi regards Qingtian as a friend and asks for wine, which shows his bold personality and extraordinary verve. Li Bai's "Drinking asking for the moon" poem says: "When is there a moon in the sky? I'm going to stop for a drink today and ask. " But Li Bai's tone here is more soothing, and Su Shi's tone is more concerned and urgent, because he wants to fly to the Moon Palace.
"When will there be a bright moon?" This problem seems to be traced back to the origin of the bright moon and the origin of the universe; It seems to marvel at the wonders of nature, from which we can feel the poet's praise and yearning for the bright moon.
