Zhang Jiayin's Literary Achievements

Zhang Jiayin, one of the "Last Five Scholars" and "Last Seven Scholars" in the Ming Dynasty, sang his works and poems with the "Last Seven Scholars" and literary giants such as Wang Shizhen, Zong Chen and Wu, and was deeply influenced by his retro thoughts. Their main style and rhetoric strongly condemned the emptiness and shortcomings of "principle" in the literary world at that time. However, unlike other members of the "later seven sons", he emphasized the true feelings in literature, especially in poetry creation. His Preface to the Collected Works of Mr. Cang Ming said: "Poetry is based on emotion, expressed by emotion and rhymed; The text is based on things, things are described, and the core is derived. " "On Keeping Pace with the Times and Paying Attention to Making Friends" (Volume 54 of Poems) also said: "Some poets insisted on it, and the ancients also insisted on people's temperament. 300 without hesitation. My wife has worldly desires, she has the touch of hair, and she sings in the environment. " Some scholars even think that "he advocated the theory of spiritual nature before the public security ternary, and became the initiator of this theory."

Zhang Jiayin's works are mainly poetry and prose. His prose includes various prefaces, travel notes, letters, lines and eulogies, and his achievements are not high. His poems are the most representative of the seven-law, five-law and seven-character classical poems, or describing mountains and rivers, pinning homesickness, or expressing the mind of rushing to the frontier, or attacking social evils and lamenting the fall of lofty ideals, with true and rich emotions, high and handsome style, generosity and perseverance, and high artistic value.

Zhang Jiayin's life has been ups and downs, wandering between Saibei and southern Yunnan, and traveling all over the world several times. The scenic spots in the north and south of the great river are repeatedly littered with people's poetic landscapes, with novel words and magnificent styles. From Kuimen East to Bashu, you can get a glimpse of the majestic beauty of the Three Gorges. "In front of the students of Twelve Peaks, the sunshine is blooming every second. Dangerous rocks are hidden in ancient caves, and broken rocks are flying springs. " (Wu Xia Xing). When he arrived in Fujian and Vietnam, he was able to "face the river wind and set the sun on the high platform, overlooking the lonely city in the sea." ("Plain Terrace Overlooking Tong Ji and Sleeping in Cao"). Yunnan said that Lishui, a strange mountain in southern Xinjiang, surprised him even more. "Southwest heaven sees the male capital, and the weather is different from that of the Central Plains. The mountain shears hibiscus green, and the lake tiles ("Into the Cloud South City"). After wandering in Shanxi and Hebei, the rugged mountains and rivers in the north inspired their heroism. "Look at Wan Li, the river is cold in autumn. The wind sweeps away the stones in the sky and turns Changhong into a fishing rod. " (the first part of "Four Poems on Mount Taihang"). His poem "Su Huangniu Xia" is the most praised:

Spring arrives at Huangniu Gorge, and the word Baidicheng is Jiang Ci. Chu Yun does not fall high, but the water goes silent.

It is rare to have a book, and the moon is brighter when you are alone. Acura is short to listen to, and apes sing for several nights.

The whole poem is about the trip to the Three Gorges, where the Chu Yun is flooded, the moon is full of apes, and the scene is in harmony. In particular, the "Chu Yun" couplets have broad artistic conception and lofty style, and people call them "peerless realms".

Zhang Jiayin was spirited when he was young, and often worked in the army after becoming an official. Therefore, his works are more about expressing personal lofty aspirations, or lamenting the shortcomings of the times and the loss of talents and heroes in the form of short songs when seeing someone off and feeling worried about the world, such as "Hu Wei accompanied him to the spring with a strategy, which made the hero cry" (. There must be some fame and fortune in the floating world. Since ancient times, heroes have been hidden from the world ("Drunk Songs Send Wang Maoxing to yu zhang on Business"), and their feelings are deep and dignified. Another example is the Seven Laws "Four Poems of Ambassador Chen Xi 'an and His Brother Ji Mountain Climbing Wushi Mountain":

Wanshan came to power on the same river, Haimen looked at the east and thought leisurely. The cup was thundered by a thousand peaks, and the sky was immediately blocked.

Bie Ye met Lu Xie romantically, and the Central Plains was ashamed of Zou Mei. Look at the wings of the south, leaning against the floating birds.

Wu Shishan is now in Quzhou, Zhejiang Province. This poem was written in the tenth year of Wanli (1582). After Zhang Jiayin, the governor of Zhejiang Province, put down Ma and Liu's rebellion, he "got deeper and deeper, ashamed of me" (the fourth part of Wu Shishan's Four Poems), climbed higher and higher, looked farther and farther, and spread all over the world, believing in horses more and more. Zhu Yizun praised the cloud: "Fu Xiao is famous for his achievements, and his poems are full of enthusiasm, which is different from those written on the roof."

Among the 100 ancient landscape poems published by Shanghai Ancient Books Publishing House, Zhang Jiayin's poem Denghan Guanta was also selected.
