Feng Wei? Dream is the masterpiece of the abandoned wife poem in The Book of Songs, and it is a long narrative poem. It describes a career woman's unfortunate experience in marriage. She is kind and affectionate, pursuing a happy marriage, only to be deceived by a hypocritical man, and finally abused and abandoned, suffering greatly mentally. Full of remorse, she rightfully accused the man of ingratitude, showing her strong character and rebellious spirit. The whole poem reflects the social reality of inequality between men and women in a patriarchal society and strongly protests against feudal ethics.
The whole poem consists of six chapters, in which flashback is used.
The poem "Self-protection" is divided into six chapters. The first chapter is about the heroine agreeing to Meng's proposal. At the beginning of this poem, it is explained that Meng is a small businessman, engaged in cloth trade. He came to the heroine to trade silk for only one reason, and the purpose was to "come to me when you come." In order to achieve his goal, he pretended to be honest and proposed to the girl. Because the heroine failed to see through the hypocrisy of self-protection, she agreed to self-protection. So, regardless of her parents' orders and the matchmaker's words, she bravely made a promise of "settling accounts after the fall" and mistakenly put her love into a liar. It is not difficult to see from here that the heroine in the poem is a simple, enthusiastic and naive girl. What about self-protection? He is a sly guy.
"I hope to return to the customs after crossing the hole by car." Since the engagement, the girl has been madly in love with self-protection with burning feelings, obsessed with self-protection: "I don't see the re-entry, I am crying; I am full of laughter when I see the resumption of GATT. " She is convinced of the result of divination, and hopes that Meng will come quickly to get the dowry and finish the marriage. The second chapter, the heroine is eager to get married, which further depicts her simple and enthusiastic character; On the other hand, it also laid the groundwork for the future marriage tragedy and the development and change of the heroine's personality.
The third chapter is an emotional turning point of the whole poem, from longing for love to regretting love. The poet used the freshness of mulberry leaves to describe a woman's youthful beauty, and "she wants to eat mulberry too much", which is both "comparison" and "prosperity", and "say something else first to cause the words to be recited". If a woman longs for love, she will be as miserable as a dove. The last three sentences: "I am a woman and have nothing to worry about;" The anxiety of scholars can still be said; You can't say you are a woman. " This is the blood and tears lesson that the heroine summed up from the experience of being abandoned. She made up her mind not to miss the past, and warned thousands of sisters in Qian Qian to avoid repeating their own mistakes. Here, the poet showed us the deep regret of this woman, and also wrote the extremely lovely and strong side of this woman's character.
Then, the fourth chapter of the poem expresses the heroine's resentment against the ungrateful man. The poet used the same "comparison" technique, using "the mulberry has fallen, and its yellow has fallen" to explain that the woman's appearance has declined, revealing the direct reason why she was abandoned by self-protection. "Self-organized, poor at the age of three" shows that this woman has been living a poor life since she got married, and it is this life that makes her beautiful face gaunt rapidly. However, after this self-protection cheated love and dowry, he gradually exposed his ruthless "two or three virtues" nature. Women have become a bridge across the river, abandoned mercilessly, and the heroine's pursuit is dashed like soap bubbles. Here, through this woman's complaint, this poem effectively reveals the despicable face of self-protection and betrayal.
Yes, in order to get true love and a happy family life, the poor woman "worked hard" and "struggled for a long time". No matter what hardships she endured, she shouldered multiple burdens, and even her husband's anger and abuse did not complain. However, despite the humiliation, she still failed to get rid of the unfortunate fate of being abandoned. The cruel reality left her only bitter tears and a miserable life. And self-protection It turned out that a "sworn" false loyalty and a "stupid" false kindness, after he "finished speaking" to achieve his goal, he slowly tyrannized her and finally kicked her away. From here, we can easily see that Meng is a knowledgeable and extremely selfish small businessman and a typical example of the oppression of husband rights in slave society. What is even more pitiful is that this woman was tricked into returning to her parents' home, waiting for her is not the comfort of her relatives, but the laughter between her brothers, and even in front of her relatives, she can't find any sympathy. Such a heavy blow to life and such an understatement of human feelings made her have to "bow her head and mourn" without telling her pain. The fifth chapter uses six exclamations "Yi", which shows the heroine's self-pity and self-pity. Recalling the past, telling the past, feelings of grief and indignation, feelings of regret and loneliness are intertwined, like a long-buried fire, which strongly expresses her condemnation of ungrateful people.
The sixth chapter describes the resentment and determination of the heroine after being abandoned, and her feelings gradually turn to calm. "Growing old with my husband always makes me complain", a sense of anger mixed with resentment arises spontaneously. Looking back, compared with today, my own fate is so bleak that my original "Dandan" and "faithfulness" were overthrown by self-protection. And I, the heroine, also saw his despicable soul through the face of self-protection and betrayal oath, so she despaired. "If you don't think about it, it's already embarrassing." Regret outweighed sorrow, and she refused to stay. She has no desire to protect herself, no mourning, no fantasy, only resentment and condemnation of self-protection. At this point, the poet successfully created an artistic model for us, from a simple and enthusiastic girl to a wife who endured humiliation and then resolutely refused to abandon her wife. The sixth chapter describes her mixed feelings of grief and indignation, and expresses a complete break with "self-protection". The idea of growing old together will only increase the heroine's resentment. Then she compared her endless pain with "Qi has a shore and Ji has a plate", and then recalled the joy of her childhood and the promise of "self-protection" now. She stopped thinking about these sad past events and boldly shouted "What's the end" from her heart. The resistance accumulated in the fifth chapter erupted like a volcano, which contributed to her complete break with "self-protection", which should be said to be an earth-shattering cry at that time, and also set up a monument for later women to pursue their own personality.
Finally, let's take a look at the characteristics of this poem in structural art. This poem is a lyric poem with narrative elements. In the first and second chapters of the poem, the woman traces the cheated self-protection, and the process of falling in love with him and getting married is narrative; The third chapter uses a whole chapter to express the regret and affection for the wrong love and unfortunate marriage, which are naturally triggered by memories; The fourth picture goes on to describe the process of being abandoned, and the resentment in the narrative also arises involuntarily. She vented all her resentment on ruthless self-protection and reached the climax of her feelings. The fifth chapter describes being laughed at by his brother after being abandoned, showing the feeling of being wronged and the pain of being abandoned without regrets; The sixth chapter reviews all kinds of false feelings in Meng's past, showing his hatred and resolute rejection of the contract of ungrateful people. Long poems are basically described according to the development process of events. The poet's emotional pulse beats with the development of events, sometimes it is remorse, sometimes it is self-injury, and sometimes it is reprimand. These complex and rich feelings are produced and developed with the narrative of events, which is in harmony with the narrative. Based on narration, readers can better understand the poet's feelings, which leads to * * *.
