The sound of crane singing in the secluded swamp is very clear. Fish swim in deep pools and sometimes float to the edge of the pool. I'm so happy in that garden. The sandalwood trees are high and shady. The leaves of the evil trees are withering. There are fine stones on his mountain, which can be used to grind jade. It's a quiet swamp crane. It's very neat in the sky. Fish float on the shallow beach, and sometimes dive into the pool to have fun. I'm so happy in that garden. The sandalwood trees are high, the branches are dense, and the Broussonetia papyrifera trees are short and thin. There are good stones on his mountain, which can be used to carve jade. analysis of idioms the philosophical idiom "stones from other mountains can be used to attack jade" originated from Heming. However, the whole poem is not intended to explain philosophy, but to praise the beauty of the garden. from the perspective of artistic development, it seems to be a logical evolution from natural landscape to man-made landscape. No matter how beautiful the natural landscape is, it's hard to take it for yourself. It's good to build the official office in a beautiful place, but it also brings a lot of inconvenience to work and life. It is almost impossible to move the natural landscape at will. Maybe it's to reproduce the beauty of natural scenery around the residential area, maybe it's to possess the beauty of natural landscape, maybe it's to show wealth and wealth, maybe it's a combination of several motives, so there are artificial gardens imitating natural landscape. It is said that this thing had existed as early as the Western Zhou Dynasty. In any case, the emergence of man-made gardens is probably not due to the noble motive of "art for art", not as mysterious as some researchers say. Even if there is such a thing, it should be very recent. in an era when transportation is still underdeveloped, people's clothing, food, housing and transportation are still a problem, external disturbance and internal strife are not concerned, and financial resources and technology are very limited, we can imagine the difficulty and consumption of human, financial and material resources in building large-scale landscape. Such a flower of art grows and opens on a barren soil. Maybe that's what history is like. The subjective motivation and the final result are always separated, sometimes even completely opposite. The workers who built the pyramids may not worship the pyramids as we do. The craftsmen who built the emperor's garden may not be happy with their works. It's really that time and this time.
