Tao Yuanming came back and said why he lived in seclusion

qualitative nature, not chronological;

When Tao Yuanming was forty-one years old (405), he made his last appearance and served Peng Zeling for eighty-five days. According to the Book of Song. The Biography of Tao Yuan and Xiao Tong's "The Biography of Tao Yuanming" clouds, Tao Yuanming's retreat was out of dissatisfaction with the decadent reality.

At that time, a governor of the county came to Peng Ze to inspect and asked him to tie up to greet him as a sign of respect, and he said angrily: "How can I bow down to this villain in the village for five buckets of rice!" "Relieved of his duties on the same day.

The legendary story of not bending his waist for five buckets of rice is the direct reason for his resignation.

It just so happened that a superior cadre came to inspect, he seized the opportunity, others asked him to freshen up and tidy up, greet the superior, he waved his hand, claiming that he did not want to flatter, bent his waist for five buckets of rice, and then returned to the mountain to live in seclusion.

This is the background of the return speech.

Overall appreciation:

This essay is not only a sign of a turning point in Tao Yuanming's life, but also a peak in the history of Chinese literature that expresses the consciousness of retreat. The full text describes the author's situation on the way back to his hometown and after he arrives home, and imagines a secluded life in the future, thus expressing the author's disgust with the officialdom at that time and his yearning for rural life. On the other hand, it also reveals the poet's negative thoughts of "being happy and knowing his fate".

It is an excellent essay. From the first half of "Yu Jia's Poverty" to "Therefore I Seek It", he briefly describes his tortuous experience of becoming a leader due to his poor family.

Among them, "the relatives persuaded Yu to be a long-term official, and he had a heart", and "Peng Ze went home for a hundred miles, and the benefits of the public land were enough for wine, so he asked for it", writing about the joyful yearning that he once had when he was out of office, which shows the honesty of the poet's nature. From the second half of "And Shaori" to "November of the Year of Otomi", he wrote the reasons why he decided to abandon his official position and return to the field.

He faced the mountains, hugged his knees and sang, accompanied by chrysanthemums, and talked freely with birds; He is ambitious all over the world, smiling proudly, sticking to his interests, and fighting with the world. Morningside is desolate, and returning with the moon and lotus hoe is the joy of his labor; Picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan, is his inner tranquility; Not to learn from the rich and the poor, not to be related to the poor, is the belief he adheres to. He is the spiritual destination of Chinese literati and the sect of hidden poets - Tao Yuanming.

"Words of Return" is Tao Yuanming's declaration of breaking with the dark officialdom and returning to the countryside, and it is also a song that flows from the depths of his soul.

There is happiness in the song. It is Zhan Hengyu, and he is happy. Bring the child into the room, and there is a bottle of wine.

This is the family joy of Tao Yuanming and his family. Help the old to rest, and look at it from time to time. It is Tao Yuanming's joy in the garden.

The peasants told Yu Yichun that there would be something to do in the west. Tao Yuanming also has the joy of farming with his cane. It is not only slender to find the ravine, but also rugged and passing through the hills, which is the joy of Tao Yuanming's landscape feast.

There is also Tao Yuanming's secret sadness in the song. He also had the ambition to help the common people. After returning to seclusion, he also has the loneliness of Jing Ping, soothing the lonely pine and coiling; When there is the gain of good things, I feel the sadness and sorrow of my life; There is nonsense, not to mention the desire to be pure, to stay, to stay and to linger, and to be indefinite and depressed; There is him talking about multiplication to the end, and Lefu's unwillingness and self-comfort are recovering from his destiny....

"Words of Return" is a song of the soul born of joy and sorrow. Tao Yuanming enjoyed the pastoral joy of ploughing the southern acres, but he also deeply experienced the bitterness and sadness of not being able to stretch his ambition. Tao Yuanming's happiness and pain, renunciation and perseverance, turned into words and interrogated the soul of each of our readers.

This is the real Tao Yuanming, and this kind of complexity and truth is also the greatness of Tao Yuanming!

Democritus said, "One cannot step into the same river twice". Tell the truth of life. It also shows the illusion of life.

Tao Yuanming's life pain lies in his inability to do anything about the future. There is no success, only return. So he found a peach blossom source for his soul, a spiritual highland to understand life. How short happiness is, how shallow, the great Tao Yuanming, the great philosopher search chain!

The Argentine poet Jorge Borges has a quote that still makes us think: "Our fate is not terrible because it is not real, but it is terrible because it is a real reality." Time is the river that swallows me, and I am the ...... of this riverThe sadness of the world is that it is real, and I am sad precisely because I am Borges.

In fact, Tao Yuanming is exactly like this, he can't escape, even if he goes into hiding, he can't feel at ease. He also understands that even if he really realizes the pursuit of officialdom, it is just more emptiness. It is also wise to return to nature a day earlier and place your affection between the mountains and rivers.

Since then, Tao Yuanming has struggled in contradictions all his life, and this declaration of resignation and retreat is the strongest swan song of his soul. Just like Borges, Tao Yuanming must have been thinking when he completed this speech:

The reason why I am sad and leaky is because I am Tao Yuanming.
