东坡志
Read full descriptionHide full description
读一篇诗文,走近一个人的一生。 东坡志是一部关于苏轼的随身书。它把诗词文赋、一生的年谱和走过的地方放在同一处:从一篇作品读到一段处境,再从一段处境回到下一篇文字。 【今日】 每天读一篇,配上导读与山水画屏,也能继续上次的阅读。「旧日此时」按农历日期翻阅年谱记载;没有恰好同日的,就读最近的一天。 【一生】 从眉山到黄州,至惠州、儋州,再到常州。八个人生篇章串联作品、经历与时代背景,地图与年谱提供不同的阅读入口;重要人物的往来另有说明。篇章导读与古典原文分别呈现。 【诗文】 阅读苏轼的诗、词、文、赋,按文体浏览,也可检索诗题与文字。横排、竖排和简繁显示可切换。「风雨也从容」「月亮照见谁」等主题合集,把彼此照应的诗文连在一起读。原文保留底本异文与异体字,导读帮助理解作品的阅读背景。 【书房】 收藏篇目,记下读到哪里,写几行笔记。无需绑定手机号即可开始阅读;账号功能可将收藏、进度和笔记同步到自己的账号。书画与典籍另有阅读入口,《黄州寒食诗帖》《前赤壁赋》《木石图》等图版附馆藏著录、图像来源和观看提示。 【寻踪】 从一句诗、一座城、一位故人,或者某一年开始找。作品、地点、人物与年份提供不同的线索,把熟悉的诗句放回它的生活里。 问汝平生功业,黄州惠州儋州。愿你读到的不只是他的诗,还有写下诗的那个人。
