Tao an Dream Memories Preface, Tao an Dream Memories Original Translation

Original text: Tao'an country is ruined, there is no return, and he is a savage. Therefore, the old view is like a poison beast, and the stunned room does not dare to connect with it.

As a self-elegiac poem, every time you want to decide, because the "Book of Stones" has not been completed, it is still regarded as the world. However, the bottle of millet has been repeatedly sold out, and he can't raise the fire, so he knows that the two elders of Shouyang are starving to death, and they don't eat Zhou Su, or the descendants make up some words.

When you're hungry, it's good to make pen and ink. Because of the growth of Wang Xie in the past, it was quite luxurious, and today he will repay the head with a hat, repay the heel with a hairpin, and revenge hairpin. Repay Qiu with gam, repay ene with ramie, and revenge is light and warm.

Repay the meat with weed, repay the stain with the sage, and revenge is willing. Repay the bed with recommendation, repay the pillow with stone, and revenge is gentle. Repay the pivot with a rope, repay the pivot with an urn, and revenge Shuang Kai also.

Repay the eyes with smoke, repay the nose with dung, and revenge fragrant. Repay the foot with the way, repay the shoulder with the bag wisdom and Huai cavity, and follow the enemy. All kinds of crimes, from all kinds of retribution.

The rooster cries on the pillow, the night air returns, because I want the rest of my life, prosperous and beautiful, and the eyes are empty, for 50 years, it has become a dream. Today, when the yellow beam is ripe, the anthill of the car brigade is regarded as how to consume. Thinking about the past, remembering is the book, holding it to the Buddha, - a confession.

Not a few years, a different year; Regardless of category, don't Zhilin also. Occasionally, such as visiting the old path, such as seeing the old people, the people of the city, turning over and complating, the so-called fool must not say a dream in front of the idiot.

In the past, there was a Xiling porter who carried wine for people, lost his foot and broke his urn, and he couldn't pay for it, and he sat down and thought: "It's a dream!" "A Han Shixiang tried the Chinese style, and went to the deer feast, and suddenly it was not true, and he gnawed his arm and said:

Is it a dream? "A dream, but I am afraid that it is not a dream, and I am afraid that it is a dream, and it is an idiot. Yu Jin's big dream is about to die, and it is another dream.

Because of the sigh of the wisdom of the literati, the name is difficult to change, the government is like a Handan dream, the bell is missing, Lu Sheng's last watch, and the two kings are still thinking about copying the two kings, so as to pass on to future generations, then its name is a little bit, solid as a Buddhist relic, the fire is fierce, and it is still burning.

Translation: The country of Tao'an is ruined, there is nowhere to return, and the cloak is scattered into the mountains, for the savages. Therefore, when I saw him, it was like seeing a poisonous beast, and I was so stunned that I almost breathed and did not dare to contact him.

I wrote an elegy poem, and every time I wanted to commit suicide, I was still living in the world because the "Book of Stones" was not completed. However, the rice in the urn was repeatedly used up, and it was impossible to make a fire to cook, so I learned that the two elders of Shouyang Mountain, Boyi and Shuqi, were actually starved to death, and (said that they) did not eat the grain of the Zhou Dynasty, or the exaggerated and whitewashed words of later generations.

When I'm hungry, I like to write articles. I thought of growing up in a noble family like Wang and Xie in the past, and I enjoyed a luxurious life, and today I was subjected to such karma Repay the head with a hat and return the heel with straw sandals, which is the retribution of the past hairpins. Returning the fur fur with a garment, and repaying the fine Ge Mingzhou with a linen cloth, this is the retribution for the warmth and light clothing of the past.

Repaying meat with bean leaves and polished rice with coarse grains is a delicacy that retributes the past.

The pronunciation of Tao An Dream Memory is táo ān mèng yì.

Dream Memories of Tao An", a collection of essays from the Ming Dynasty. It was written by Zhang Dai, an essayist in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. The book consists of eight volumes, written after the death of Jia Shen Ming (1644), and was not published until the 40th year of Qianlong (1775).

Most of the records are miscellaneous events that the author has personally experienced, showing various aspects of the world in front of people.

Appreciation. Throughout the 8 volumes and 127 articles of "Dream Memories of Tao'an", most of the articles written are trivial things, involving various aspects such as city attractions, mountains and rivers, customs and human feelings, literature and art, etc., more than half of which describe folk festivals, folk amusements, market beings, dramas, tea and food recipes, etc. The characters in the pen include celebrities in the literary and artistic circles, but more often than not, businessmen, storytellers, craftsmen, gardeners, and even geisha and elegant characters who are active in the city, can be described as a collection of secular essays.

However, although there are many vulgar people and mundane things in the book, I don't feel vulgar when I read it, but there is a transcendent elegance, and what is even more rare is that the poetry of Zhang Dai's prose is not just superficial and formal, but has a rich heritage, and even the spiritual strength of his personality, which can be described as "one source of body and one source, microscopic and inseparable".
