Mr. Qian Zhongshu has a profound knowledge of China's classical culture, and his works "Talking about Art" and "Orchestration" are simply like killing dragons and relying on heavenly swords written by Mr. Jin Yong. "Martial arts first, cut the dragon with a sword, call to arms all over the world, people don't follow, and they can't rely on the sky. Who is better than you? "
In Wulin, relying on heaven to kill dragons is not something that ordinary people can play. Similarly, land and Guan Cone are not fun for ordinary people, especially Guan Cone. Mr. Qian's whole article is written in classical Chinese, and it is awe-inspiring just to read the title. I'm afraid classical Chinese is not as a carrier as people do now, and few people have the confidence to read it.
Known as the "cultural Kunlun", Mr. Qian's accomplishments in classical literature are unparalleled. What works can lead to Mr. Qian's spiritual highland? The irony and banter in Fortress Besieged and the humor and incisiveness in The Edge of Life are not enough to get us close to the master. "If you feel good after eating an egg, why do you have to find a chicken with this egg?" ? The master smells of "Do Not Disturb" all over. It's really hard to get Mr. Wang's enlightenment across the Wangchuan River.
Now, the publication of Qian Zhongshu's Selected Poems of Tang Dynasty has made ancient writers see the dawn of hope. This book is based on the whole Tang poetry. Mr. Qian Zhongshu selects several poems every day, and Mr. Jiang Yang copies a little every day as a "day class" for reading Tang poetry and calligraphy. The day shift lasted more than seven years from 1983 to 19 1 June to 19.
When it comes to Tang poetry, most people think of Li Bai and Du Fu, because Li Bai is known as the "Poet Fairy" and is the representative of romanticism, while Du Fu is the "Poet Saint" and is highly respected by realists. Mr. Qian Zhongshu chose Tang poems to practice for his wife, and then gave them to his beloved daughter as a souvenir. So how would he choose a poem?
Judging from Mr. Wang's rigorous academic attitude, indifferent personality, "the most proud wit, the most affectionate husband, and the most interesting father", the thread in the hand of a loving mother and the monk knocking at the moon gate must be his first choices, and there will also be "A Moonlit Night on a Spring River" and Zhang's "A drowned rat" which are not included in "300 Tang Poems".
No one expected that the first poet in Qian Zhongshu's Selected Poems of the Tang Dynasty turned out to be Bai Juyi, who defeated Du Fu's 174 with 184. Li Bai, who has 3,000 hairs, was selected with only 23 songs.
"Talking about Art Record" has Bai Juyi's theory: "Xiangshan is talented, reflecting ancient and modern times, but it is full of vulgarity. So I tasted that Xiangshan wrote poems to make the old woman understand, and every time I wrote poems, I wanted Xiangshan to understand; Cover makes the old woman understand, meaning is easy, while the old woman explains, saying is annoying. Very simple, but not annoying. " This passage is replaced by our current vernacular, which means that Bai Juyi's talent is rare in ancient and modern times, and his poems are easy to understand. Even the old woman knows what he wrote, but his success is easy to fail, and he becomes wordy if he is not careful.
Bai Juyi was named a Buddhist in Xiangshan in the evening, so he was called Xiangshan. He was a great realistic poet in the Tang Dynasty, and was known as "Poet Magic" and "Poet King". He and Yuan Zhen advocated the New Yuefu Movement, which was called "Bai Yuan" by the world and "Bai Liu" with Liu Yuxi. Bai Juyi died in 846 AD at the age of 75. Li Chen, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, wrote a mourning poem: Who taught Minglu to be a poet for sixty years? Floating clouds are naturally happy if they are not famous and easy to live in. Boys perform "Song of Eternal Sorrow", and Hu Er can sing "Pipa". The article is full of people, and I once missed you.
Boys can explain songs, and Hu Er can sing. The poems are easy to understand without losing the feeling that "poverty is the only way to be immune, and success is the way to help the world". This is probably why Mr. Qian Zhongshu chose Bai Juyi's poems as his wife.
Think carefully about Bai Juyi's poems, such as Song of Eternal Sorrow, Pipa Journey, Charcoal Man, Farewell to Ancient Grass, Spring Tour in Qiantang and so on. Whether it's a long narrative poem, seven verses or five poems, as long as you recite them, even after many years, you will still come with your mouth open.
From this point of view, Mr. Qian's poetry selection is not based on "perfection", and his poetry selection is not for money and has no commercial purpose; Second, there is no organizational intervention to complete the task. Self-selected reading can be described as "willful", with husband and wife loving each other and entertaining themselves. It is precisely because of this that they can show their unique perspective and have no choice.
Selected poems have been published. I tracked the news of this book on the Internet these two days and read the sample book catalogue. Although I want to read it quickly first, I have too many things at hand. Let's leave a note here and start when I am free.
