A set of sentences is to select ready-made sentences that can form antithesis and coherent meanings from poems and articles to form couplets. This was in the Song Dynasty. Song Zhou Zizhi's Zhupo Poetry contains:
Wang made a set of sentences, and the sentence he got was "This Jiujiang official. My blue sleeves are wet. " He tried to fight the whole sentence, but he didn't get it for a long time. One day, I asked Cai Tianqi, "This Jiujiang official. My blue sleeves are wet. What can you say? " Apocalypse replied: "Why not say' Li Yuan disciple Bai Faxin'?"
"This Jiujiang official. My blue sleeves are wet "comes from Bai Juyi's Pipa Trip, and" Liyuan Disciple Bai Fuxin "comes from Bai Juyi's Song of Eternal Sorrow. This poem is about Wang Anshi and Cai Tian's notice. The Miscellaneous Notes under the Roof says:
The set of sentences in Bitan began with Wang, such as "The wind will gather flowers, but the palace mountain will be more secluded", but it didn't start from the beginning. Yu Jin Shi Hua and Zhou Guohua Lu Xian said that there was a set of sentences in the early Song Dynasty, which were written in stone. For example, "If the sky is sentimental, if the sky is old" and "If the moon is long and round without complaining", it will not start in Gong Jing.
Since the Song Dynasty, antithetical sentences have been everywhere.
Poetry is the most common, such as:
The new ghost wailed there with the old one,
His life is unstable.
This is Ji Xiaolan's couplet mocking quacks. The first part comes from Du Fu's Military Vehicle Shop, and the second part comes from Li Shangyin's Ma Yi Yi Yi.
I am a madman in the state of Chu, and all the five mountains are sacred mountains, and I don't think far;
In my opinion, from this commanding height, Zoushicheng is full of sadness.
This couplet was written by Peng Yulin. The first two lines are from Li Bai's poem "Lushan Mountain sends Lu's imperial virtual boat". The second couplet "The land is still in Zoushi" comes from the poem "Lu Ji Kong Tan" written by Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. "Because I see that from this height, sadness is everywhere" comes from Du Fu's poem "Going upstairs".
Set words, such as:
Spring goes and spring comes, thinking endlessly, and Ying Xiao Wo was born early;
I have said a lot, but I am not satisfied. Ask who will come to Jie Lianhuan.
"The spring is dim and the thoughts are endless", from the article "More Leakage"; "Ying Xiao Wo was born early", from Su Shi's Niannujiao Chibi Nostalgia; "Too many words, not enough feelings", from Niu Xiji's Tea Son; "Who will come to Jie Lianhuan?" is from Xin Qiji's "Autumn in Han Palace, beginning of spring".
A set of sentences, such as:
Birds sing and flowers gather in the thick snow;
Clouds move with bamboo and water flows with the moon.
The first part of this couplet is from Yu Xin's Ma Su Fu, and the second part is from Ye Yan Fu.
A collection of poems and sentences (that is, a collection of cross-class sentences), such as:
Silver candles have a high fever, lest flowers fall asleep at night;
At first glance, Zhulian seems to have met Yan's return.
This subtitle is a couplet praising the painting by modern painter Ma Mengrong. The first part is from Han Yu's poem Haitang, and the second part is from Yan Shu's poem Huanxisha.
Set other aspects, such as:
Flowers in the morning gather at night,
A new story.
Upper and lower couplets are the names of Lu Xun's two works.
Fine paintings and calligraphy by ancient and modern celebrities in Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties,
Medicinal materials from Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Guangnan and Beinan.
This couplet is the signboard of two shops in a city in Qing Dynasty, which was collected by Ji Yun.
The above couplets are composed of many poems, articles or various sentences. There are also cases where sentences are connected by the same poem:
The mountain is high and the moon is small,
Get to the bottom of it.
These couplets are all from Su Shi's Fu on the Back of the Red Wall.
If the words quoted in the couplet are only part of the whole couplet, they cannot be regarded as definite sentences. "Sunset red to loquat, reading ancient and modern passers-by, moss barren pan-Millennium well; Spring water and green willows touch a lot of parting feelings, at the gate of Wu Dong Wan Li boating. " Hong Du, Tang Nv poet Xue Taozi. Pipamen Lane is his residence in Chengdu. This subtitle is in the couplet of Wangjianglou in Chengdu. The sentence "Boating Wu Dong and Wan Li" comes from Du Fu's quatrains. Whether "a thousand-year-old well with wild moss" is the original sentence of a poem has not yet been ascertained. Even if it is, there are only two of the six sentences, so it can't be used as a definite form, and it is only a semi-definite form at most. (2) Dechemization
The so-called detachment means that the original sentences of related poems (including old couplets) are slightly modified according to new ideas and then made into couplets.
There are two sentences in Wang Wei's poem "Mountain Holidays Think of Shandong Brothers": "Being a stranger alone in a foreign land makes you miss your relatives twice during the festive season". Later, for the topic of a fellow guild hall, people slightly transformed it into such a couplet:
As a stranger in a foreign land,
Every acquaintance is a blind date.
Change "independence" to "style", "festival" to "acquaintance" and "thinking" to "phase". With such a change, it is very suitable for the countrymen's guild hall.
When Shi Zhongyuan, a Taoist priest of the Five Dynasties, was hiding in Qixingyan, Guilin, there was an epigram saying: "The stone presses the wood and the cliff is upside down." In the Qing Dynasty, Wenran, a monk from Yongqing Temple, Jiaozi Hutong outside Xuanwu Gate in Beijing, changed couplets to hang on the ancestral temple wall.
Stones press bamboo shoots out obliquely,
The rocks hang down and the flowers bloom.
"Wood" was changed to "bamboo shoots" because of bamboo. The change from "hanging" to "hanging" enhances the feeling of coming down. The change from "raw" to "open" also adds a layer of fragrance. These changes are all due to the temple scenery.
Sometimes, couplets themselves can be detached. Amin scholar Xu Wei wrote a couplet for his Ivy League bookstore: "Two scattered rooms, one accent". When it was moved to an iron shop, it became:
Three rickety houses,
A man with a big temper.
Xu Wei's family has only two rooms, so he said "two rooms"; Tiepu has three rooms, so it is called "Three Rooms". Xu Wei is a painter, poet and writer. He is good at zaju and often sings against traditional Confucianism, so he speaks "Southern accent and Northern tune". Blacksmiths are good at striking iron, so they call it "hammering"
Judging from the above three couplets, there are not many changed words, but they are all crucial, and each changed word can fully express new ideas. If the original sentence is changed beyond recognition, it can't express new ideas, or it still doesn't meet the situation to be expressed and the requirements of detachment.
This situation is not without it. Someone wrote such a couplet to Changsha Miao Gao Feng:
Long and flowing, a clean soil of the years;
Like floating jade, it is a strange peak here.
This pair of couplets is a detached couplet of Jiangxin Temple in Wenzhou. Only the word "Taiwan" in the original couplet was changed to the word "Feng". At first glance, it was not bad, but after careful consideration, I found something wrong. Because the Jiangxin Temple is located on an island in the middle reaches of the Oujiang River, it is called "like a duck to water" by many people. Miaofeng is a hill in the south of Changsha, which inevitably makes people laugh and cry.
Degeneration can be achieved by increasing or decreasing the strokes of words. For example:
Father Jinshi, son Jinshi, father and son Jinshi;
Old lady, daughter-in-law, old lady, daughter-in-law
This pair of couplets was handed down from the official family to show off their power. Because this family is evil on weekdays, someone secretly changed some pens at night, so it became like this:
Father in the grave, son in the grave, father and son in the grave;
A woman loses her husband, a daughter-in-law loses her husband, and both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law lose their husbands.
The meaning of showing off is changed to the meaning of death, and the content is completely different from the original couplet.
Abandoned anonymous rich man,
Many patients are sparse.
This couplet was written by Ji Xiaolan to satirize a quack. Abstract: The words "wisdom" and "death" in Meng Haoran's poems are respectively inverted from "wisdom" and "death". The words "wisdom" and "death" in the poem are "I slipped and was exiled by a wise king, and I have been ill for so long without seeing my friends". After the transposition of "Cai Ming", he made money for nothing, and his satire on quacks was very spicy.
However, the most commonly used desolvation method is word. Some people say that the couplet of "old woman" is changed to "old woman steals people, daughter-in-law steals people, and both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law steal people", and only "husband" is called "stealing". If there is, it falls into this category. Once upon a time, there was a stingy rich man who celebrated his mother's birthday one day, and a pair of red couplets was missing at the door. He said to the accountant, "You rewrote and pasted the phrase" The sky is increasing, people are prolonging their lives, and spring is full of kung fu "for me." The accountant asked how to change the law, and he said, "Change the' person' in the upper part to' mother'." The accountant asked the next couplet, and the miser said, "Needless to ask, weren't' Dad' and' Mom' originally a couple?" Mr. Accountant then posted such a ridiculous couplet:
The days are getting longer, the years are getting longer, and the mother is living longer and longer.
Spring is full of Gankunda's father.
On the surface, this couplet is just an thoughtless moment of the miser, but in fact it is a masterpiece of the storyteller expressing his hatred for the rich man, and it also uses Chinese characters.
If too many changes are made to the original sentences (including the old couplets) of related poems according to new ideas, it will become parody. There are roughly the following three situations.
Keep the basic pattern and some words of the old couplets, one of which is. For example, an "oath" in "Laugh Well" said that an official arrived and posted it at the gate:
Withdraw money at dusk, and the devil takes the hindmost;
If you listen to the chief, you are a thief and a prostitute.
Later, in Huang Tu's The Secret of the Mountain Pavilion, I saw another official post the following:
If you get a penny, the laggard will suffer.
Listen to a situation, a thief and a prostitute.
It is said that the two officials still don't talk about taking bribes, but as far as these two couplets are concerned, they all come from the same pattern, and they still retain the words "the devil takes the hindmost" and "thieves and prostitutes".
Only the basic pattern of the old couplets is retained, and the original couplets are not used. This is the second one. Lijiang Yulong Mountain Changlian, which imitates Kunming Daguanlou Changlian, is an example. Lian Yue:
Tens of thousands of miles of the Yangtze River flows under his feet. Looking from a distance, it is endless. Kuangdong connects Bashu, Wula in the north, Jiaodi in the south and Tianzhu in the west. Throughout the ages, empty feelings have risen and fallen. While the moon is bright and the wind is clear, show off her ice muscle jade bone. From dawn to dusk, smoke and fog disappeared. Only won a thousand years of snow, an iron platform, a half-bay Linghu, surrounded by birds and flowers;
12 o'clock is illusory in my chest. Gao Huai walked alone, her tone full of affection. Look at the red sun, the sunset glow, the blue sky at noon and the stars at night. Yan went to the red laurel and let it be cold and hot. Long Yin Hu Xiao preached the great power of the emperor. In Ji's melancholy, he clearly showed honest and corrupt officials. There are also some scenic spots such as Three Dangers, Six Imperial edicts, the Western Han Dynasty Boat Drum, and Hundred Rivers.
The basic pattern of old couplets has also been broken, and only the shadow of imitation couplets can be seen, which is the third kind. Such as Hangzhou West Lake Flower Temple Old Ang Lee Games:
Cui Cui is red, full of Yingying Yan Yan;
Ups and downs, year after year.
Imitation of post-learning, Yu Yun:
Flowers, leaves, green and red, but Wei Xiang deliberately supported them, not teaching wind and rain, and it was cold;
Sole, long live, may all lovers get married, I always like it.
Although this couplet also has the word "emerald red", it is not in the same position as Huamiao couplet; Although there are also "rain, rain, wind, wind" and "morning and evening", they are not only in the same position, but also in reverse order. These can not be regarded as the reservation of the original words, but only as the "shadow" of the original words, that is, imitation marks.
(3) New draft
The so-called new draft is to write couplets completely in your own words. This is the most common way to write couplets, and there is no need to give examples.
There is a kind of couplets with combined characters, which also started from the Song Dynasty. There is a cloud in the sixth volume of Leng Lu Miscellaneous Knowledge: "Ci collection begins with Dongpo collection". Come home. "Liang Zhangju attached it to the couplet Conghua. In fact, this kind of couplet should be classified as a new draft. Because as far as content is concerned, it is entirely the author's own idea, and the only difference is that a range of words is specified. For example, this couplet, "Taoist artists are good at writing willows, showing their spirits, or taking fish into a deep pond", is just a collection of Shi Guwen's words without the help of ready-made poems. Shi Guwen was a seal script before Qin Shihuang unified the characters, with only over 300 characters. It is difficult to combine seal characters in this range. But this is only an additional condition. (4) Single problem and combination problem
Couplets can be written by one person or two people.
One of a person's single questions is to expand others' original couplets into new ones. Ou Yangxun, a calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty, and his son's reading room-Shutang Temple in Wangcheng, Hunan Province, originally had such a couplet:
Elegant jade seat,
This hall is famous for its mountains.
Jade seat refers to the stone case in which Ou Yangxun and his son were studying. Structure, make also. This couplet was later expanded into the following one:
Jade seat leans against Ouyang, and thousands of books spreads the universe;
The famous mountain hides the king, and Qian Qiu Hall builds Gankun Town.
This unfolding is carried out by disassembling two couplets. Because the authors of the new couplet and the original couplet hold reverence for Ou Yangxun and his son, the new couplet only enriches and develops the original couplet in content.
Some extensions, the original couplet is not opened, and the extended part is directly added after the original couplet. There used to be a county magistrate who asked himself about the gate outside the department:
Love those who are still children,
be rock-firm in executing the law—enforce the law strictly
Because this county magistrate talked about benevolence, righteousness and morality, people saw through his trick and added some words to it, which became such a couplet:
Love the people like children, parents of cattle and sheep, parents of granaries, only for their children;
Law enforcement is like a mountain, treasures are prosperous, and wealth and goods are prosperous. Is it the nature of mountains?
Add this, and the meaning of Part I becomes: How "loving the people like children"! People's cattle, sheep and food are filial to you, the "parent" officer! In your opinion, they are just doing their son's duty. The second couplet means: "Law enforcement is like a mountain"! You get more and more treasures and goods there every day. Is this the nature of the mountain? The meaning of the new couplet here is completely opposite to that of the original couplet. This couplet was added as:
Love the people like children, gold and silver are my children;
Law enforcement is like a mountain, and Qian Shan is a mountain!
This addition has the same effect as the last one.
Some even expand the words that are not couplets into couplets. During the Kuomintang rule, the people were suppressed and public opinion was suppressed. At that time, teahouses, hotels and other places all over Sichuan posted "Don't talk about state affairs" notes to avoid getting into trouble. Others also posted "Take care of your clothes". Because there are many thieves, the waiter can't take care of them, so he has to post this to attract customers' attention. On the basis of these two notes, someone expanded them into the following couplets:
Take care of your clothes, there are few gentlemen in the country this day;
Regardless of state affairs, there are many ghosts and foxes in the world today.
Ghost fox refers to the Kuomintang spy.
Some people also empty the original old sentences according to the meaning. In Qing Dynasty, Yakushiji, an Antu in Jiangsu, offered sacrifices to Hua Tuo. Repair after fire. When Li Daiweng looked at the couplets, Zhao said, "There is an old saying:' I hated Cao Cao for a long time before I split his skull, but I heard it once. "I wonder if there is?" Li Weng shook his head and said, "The words' I listened for a while' are too outrageous." Zhao said, "How about this?" Li Weng smiled and said, "I just want to take your pen." Zhao wrote to:
How can the skull be opened, just because the traitor should be punished, he wants to save the thunder from the disaster;
Why do you need to shave your arms? The saint is naturally free from illness, but fortunately there is a bright moon.
The first part comes from "I wish I couldn't chop Cao's skull", and the second part comes from "Once the doctor took his arm and listened for a while". According to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Hua Tuo was killed because he was going to perform brain surgery on Cao Cao, and he also treated an arrow wound with Guan Yu. The old sentence and this upside-down couplet say these two things.
Two joint questions are generally nothing more than the following two methods:
One is that one person leaves the upper part and one person leaves the lower part. 1one night in the summer of 908, a 0/4-year-old bear in Taojiang, Hunan, enjoyed the cool in the yard. Everyone listened to his little news about the world and nodded yes, but only one Old Master Q didn't believe it. He changed a pack of cigarettes for the bear and made the first couplet:
A pair of candles tried three times, bright and bright, shining around.
Bear see praise feudal yamen, just a thought, replied:
The five continents are divided into two hemispheres, black and black, regardless of east, west, north and south!
This method of connecting problems is universal at all times.
First pass the word "one person" in turn and add it gradually until it is appropriate. Laugh well, the storm is coming, and the gossip will continue. Don't change your father's business. The chapter on "artistic skills" in this book is all good examples, so I won't quote them at this time. Please refer to. This inscription method is quite interesting, and it has been used occasionally so far.
There are two requirements for writing couplets (1): one must be targeted.
For example, if you see a pavilion in front of you, you should consider it from the perspective of the pavilion to understand its historical situation, geographical environment, and its outstanding and striking places. Sun Ranweng's Kunming Grand View Tower sets a good example for us. If you say a temple, you must find out whether it is a hero or a shinto, and what is the difference. "A big belly can accommodate things that are difficult to accommodate in the world; Laugh at the ridiculous people in the world. You can tell at a glance that Maitreya is written, because it captures the two characteristics of Maitreya's eternal smile in his arms. To write a shop, you must know what industry that shop belongs to. The couplet "All guests come to the shop, so there should be no one scratching their heads here" shows the barber shop and grasps the barber's personality. The same is true of writing happy couplets, birthday couplets and elegiac couplets. Li Dazhao's Ode to Sun Yat-sen and Tan's Yan Kai (see the section on "Reduplication") fully show their profound understanding of the objects they hold and the effectiveness of these couplets. This is not acceptable to a generalist. Second, we must innovate.
In other words, don't be unconventional. People have said it a thousand times. If you repeat the old words, if you don't have original ideas, you will be called a cliche. To avoid sticking to the rules, it is necessary to determine the object of writing, have a clear understanding of it, and then study whether others have said it, what they have said, and what they have said, and then write in words that others have never used from places that others have not said. Maitreya Buddha in Yongquan Temple in Fuzhou is associated with "lifting empty cloth bags every day" (see "antithesis" in the previous section). The ancient and modern funny couplets have such a comment: "The game is samadhi, so-called Zen writing is also. If you want to establish such a connection, you must do so. On morality, pedantry is inevitable; On karma, it is inevitable to be falsely accused, neither of which is the ultimate principle of the Buddha. Without this, it is empty talk. And empty talk is also because of the item, the same is true. Therefore, if you want novelty, you have to. " This comment leads to the reason why this couplet of Yongquan Temple in Fuzhou is written in this way, and this writing has indeed received a novel effect. The same topic is the ancient cave of Qin people in Taohuayuan, Hunan Province, "I occasionally smell yellow hair in the stone, and sometimes it is born in white" and "Many immortals, look at the people when the cave was opened in the Millennium, or plow the fields and dig wells; Reading into the present, listening to the golden rooster wake up in the middle of the night, the rise and fall of Qin and Han dynasties, all belong to flowing peach blossoms, and the idea is completely different. Regarding the existence of "Xanadu", the former affirmed and the latter denied. It is said that the Peach Blossom Garden is a place where the ancients are attached to each other, "but they complain that Wulingyuan Cave has returned and kept ancient and modern tourists busy; If you want to find Peng Zezai, ask if the countryside is safe, and the peach blossoms are still flowing, which is different from the "talking about ghosts and gods" above. This is in terms of one place. So is Guan Yunchang's heroic performance. "A horse chop Yan Liang, Hebei hero flinched; A knife will be Lu Su, and celebrities in the south of the Yangtze River will bow their heads ",telling two things about him in Xuzhou and Jingzhou; "Raise a candle to avoid suspicion, and the night is devoted to the Han dynasty; Huarong Road does not repay kindness, and now his eyes are completely black. " He also talked about two things on the way from Xuzhou to Xuchang and in Battle of Red Cliffs. It is also an evaluation of Guan Yu. "There is no history in one thousand, following the Great Sage of Wenxuan, Wu Mu is lonely and loyal, and his heroic spirit lives on forever. In the final analysis, he is an easy-to-talk teacher; There are hundreds of miles between places, the old seal of Hanshou in the west, the old base area of Yiyang in the east, and the British style everywhere. It is said that the figures in China for thousands of years, except Confucius (selected works) and Yue Fei (Wu Mu), only Guan Yu; And "the horse beheaded Yan Liang, the partial division escaped from the ban, the mighty town of the three armed forces, the pavilion long title, not satisfied; Xuzhou fell to Mende, and the Confederate army lost Sun Quan and went to Wan Li first, which tells us that he has both indelible achievements and very serious mistakes. This is about another character. Whether talking about a place or a person, these couplets are novel because of different angles. It is true that many places or figures inscribed by masters are unique because the main angles are occupied. However, different times and different human feelings often make people have different understandings and feelings about the same thing. As long as they observe attentively and deliberately seek novelty, they can get a sense of freshness. Zhao Zengwang's own example in Jiangnan Zhao's Couplet can illustrate this point. He said, "Chen Zhubei, the distinguished guest of Fengzao, should travel to Jinling as soon as possible. As a prostitute, she was named a Ming fairy, and the gift for Li Anyun was:' The moon is bright for three nights, and the fairy is always beside the five clouds.' This set of sentences is implicit. I was invited to his room and Tan Ci asked for a present. Prostitutes send coral notes to ask for books, and all that's left is a' bright moon and three nights'. Chen Jing said, "How can I answer the old couplets?" Yu Yue said, "If you are always by my side, I dare not be abrupt. The next sentence of this book reads: "At the height of this magical hut, I face the court of the five cities of heaven." Chen Daxiao, for those who haven't seen Jia Shengyu for a long time. "Zhao Zengwang and Chen Zhubei, with one person as the topic, want to embed the word" Ming Xian "in the joint head, and Chen has joined first, and it is not bad. Zhao Zaizuo, naturally difficult. However, while completely retaining Chen Lian's previous sentence, Zhao only changed the five words of the latter sentence, which is full of new ideas and can also give us some inspiration. You can also see from Zhao's title couplet how important it is to develop your imagination with novel ideas! Imagination is not strong, and sometimes the couplets written are obvious. "Selected Works of Jian" contains: Fortunately, Yongle (the founder) and (Zhu Yunwen,) served Mao. (Mao) There is a saying:' The wind blows a thousand lines in a ponytail.' Wen Jian was right: "Rain scatters wool like a blanket. Mao is very unhappy. Yongle pair: "Rizhao Longlin Wandianjin." "As far as antithesis is concerned, the antithesis between Wen Jian and Yongle is very neat. But compared with the two, the beauty and ugliness in the image are quite different. This is the result of their different imagination. In view of this, we should pay attention to cultivating our imagination at ordinary times. Third, we should embody the spirit of the times.
The spirit of the times refers to the ideological outlook of an era. In different times, their ideological outlook is different. The thoughts of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in feudal society, the democratic thoughts in the anti-imperialist and anti-feudal period, and the socialist spirit and moral fashion since the founding of the People's Republic of China have had an impact on the authors living in these times, and they cannot but be reflected in the couplets. "Heaven speaks well, and the earth is auspicious", written for the kitchen god, contains a strong feudal superstition color; "Small building allows me to be quiet, the earth is busy" is about a hermit, showing an indifferent attitude towards earthly life. It propagandizes the quiet philosophy of Lao Zi and Zhuangzi, "Three birds kill people, a group of traitors, and the deer dies and the deer hurts", and lambastes the three traitors Lu, Cao Rulin during the May 4th Movement, which is full of people in China. "My sideburns have been snowing for many years, and my heart is as deep as death" is written for today's revolutionary teachers, expressing their infinite loyalty to education. These couplets are branded with the spirit of the times. The ancients said: "Although couplets are short articles, they are like short sentences, taking various bodies or things. Zhuang is mixed, so advise him to punish him. " When we write couplets today, we must consciously and fully reflect the revolutionary, progressive and noble things of our time, even if they are entertaining, we must be healthy and positive and resolutely oppose vulgarity and vulgarity. Fourth, emotional words are appropriate.
Appropriate is just right. Mr. Ma said in the article "Random Talk on Couplets": Praise heroes, evaluate personnel, be dignified, hang indoors, give friends, be exquisite, express your views, mourn, and describe landscapes. On the whole, this is correct. But the specific object depends on the situation. After Yuan Shikai's death, Huang Xing wrote such a couplet. "Haoduan is a hero of the world for more than forty years. His ambition is steep and he pretends to raise the reputation of two words. One meaning is to learn Yuan Xiu Highway; Being emperor in the palace for eighty days is a proverb. After all, it is better than Guo Yanwei. " Yang Du also wrote such an elegiac couplet: "* * * and the mistake of the Republic of China? What is wrong with the Republic of China? A hundred years later, it's prison again. Jun-hyun is in charge of Gong Ming? Gong Ming mistook Jun Xian? Under the grave, three times. " Chou 'an refers to Yuan Shi-kai's son Yuan, 19 15, who instigated Yang Du and others to set up an organization in August 2005 to advocate constitutional monarchy and pave the way for Yuan Shi-kai to become emperor. Yuan Highway, namely Yuan Shu. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he proclaimed himself emperor in Shouxian County, Anhui Province. He was arrogant and extravagant, destroyed by Cao Cao and died of illness. Guo Yanwei, Guo Wei, lived in Yecheng in the later Han Dynasty. In 95 1 year, she was killed, and Empress Dowager Guo was abandoned to stand on her own feet and proclaimed herself emperor in Yizhou (now south of qingfeng county, Henan). This was the last week. Yuan Shikai was abdicated by Emperor Xuan Tong, and so on. If he wins, Yuan Shikai is more cunning. These two elegies are not "sad". A pair of Huang Xing, intended to criticize Yuan Shikai's despicable behavior; Yang Du, on the other hand, intends to refute what Yuan Shikai said before his death: "Yang Du mistook me". Why did the elegiac couplet also express criticism and refutation? Because Yuan Shikai was a bad thing, his death was a happy event and not worthy of sympathy, while Huang Xing and Yang Du had some outstanding case-solving with him, so they could only write it like this. These two elegiac couplets are written in this way, which is reasonable, not only in line with Yuan Shikai's situation, but also in line with the identity and feelings of the collaborators. Although not "sad", it is very appropriate. It is inappropriate for them to praise Yuan Kai against their will and mourn Yuan Shikai's death. Fifth, it must conform to the style of couplets.
The writing of couplets should also conform to the style of couplets. Over the years, people generally pay more attention to the expression of the spirit of the times, but generally ignore the characteristics of couplets. I have to say that there are some flaws. For daily use, especially in factories and rural areas, there is no need to demand the level of confrontation, but this does not mean that artistry is not needed. Because the so-called "don't be demanding" is completely out of necessity. It should be said that "there is no need to be demanding", but it should still be required. Otherwise, we will always "depress the beauty of Bali", that is, simply do propaganda, and the effect can be imagined.
Zou Mi, a poet in A Qing, said in "Lu Bi Tan San Borrowed Couplets": "Couplets are not difficult to be skillfully compiled, natural, to the point and detached." No matter what couplets you write, "you must always be spiritually unified, never give up, use beautiful thoughts, use beautiful words, and learn from the past to the present in order to be wonderful." It is undoubtedly beneficial to take this passage as an artistic requirement for us and strive to improve the creative realm accordingly.
