《赤壁赋》 / Red Cliff Fu

《赤壁赋》 appears in 105.苏东坡:一腔豪迈之气,一肚皮不合时宜 as one of the major works from [[SuShi|苏轼]]’s [[Huangzhou|黄州]] maturation. The episode groups it with 《后赤壁赋》 and [[NianNuJiaoChibiHuaiGu|《念奴娇·赤壁怀古》]] as evidence that exile did not reduce Su Shi to private bitterness.

The source’s use of the work is interpretive rather than a full close reading. Red Cliff becomes a site where lost office, landscape, history, pleasure, mortality, and scale are transformed into Earned Optimism / 走出来的乐天 rather than denial.
