Significance of the timesImage and ideographic level-Conforming to traditional values: In China's traditional culture, there has always been the idea of "helping the world if you are up to speed, and protecting yourself if you are poor", as well as the value orientation of advocating dedication and paying attention to spiritual inheritance. Gong Zizhen's poem fits in well with this cultural background. He still chooses to practice the concept of "helping the world at the same time" in another way when he is frustrated personally and can no longer directly display his ambition in the officialdom. He shows the spiritual quality of selfless dedication by self-metaphor, which echoes the feelings of home and country and the sense of responsibility held by people with lofty ideals throughout the ages. Therefore, this poem can arouse widespread resonance and is deeply loved and respected by people.
