介绍（中）	这篇文章是在退休后的学者与他们的花园或工作室密切相关时写成的，是十四世纪罕见的新文学体裁"工作室回忆录"的例子。但正如郑的简短后记所表明的那样，这篇文章还打算作为收件人的介绍信，一位名叫徐欢的有抱负的年轻学生。在后记中，郑要求徐欢将卷轴展示给一位高级官员，这位高级官员可能会帮助徐晖预约。通过在文章中采用工作室历史的形式，郑能够讨论徐欢显赫的家庭背景和美德意图，同时保持一种有品位和颜面的间接性。郑元友书法的优雅，折射出作家和接受者的高雅情感。郑是最早开发一种独特的新书法风格的人之一，这种风格是基于汉末古模型的细长字符和夸张的转弯笔触和钩子。这种反建制风格通常与郑最着名的学生，隐士艺术家倪赞（1306-1374）联系在一起，他使其成为退休学者的代名词。郑氏早期使用这种风格表明，这不是倪的个人发明，而是一种广泛的文化现象，表达了时代的隐居精神。
介绍（英）	This text, written when scholars living in retirement became intimately identified with their gardens or studios, is a rare fourteenth-century example of a new literary genre, the "studio memoir." But as Zheng's brief postscript makes clear, the essay was also intended to function as a letter of introduction for its recipient, an aspiring young student named Xu Huan. In the postscript, Zheng asks Xu Huan to show the scroll to a high-ranking official who might help Xu with an appointment. By adopting the form of a studio history in his essay, Zheng is able to discuss Xu Huan's illustrious family background and virtuous intentions while maintaining a tasteful and face-saving indirectness. The elegance of Zheng Yuanyou's calligraphy reflects the refined sensibilities of both the writer and the recipient. Zheng was among the first to develop a distinctive new calligraphic style of elongated characters and exaggerated turning strokes and hooks that was based on late Han dynasty archaic models. This antiestablishment style is commonly associated with Zheng's most famous pupil, the recluse-artist Ni Zan (1306–1374), who made it synonymous with scholars living in retirement. Zheng's early use of this style suggests that it was not Ni's personal invention but a widespread cultural phenomenon expressive of the reclusive spirit of the times.
