From what angles does Wen's poem "Bodhisattva Man, the hills are stacked with gold" describe women's makeup?

Thank you for your invitation:

From the beginning, it is clear that Bodhisattva Man, Dieshan and Golden Jue are a flowery word in the text. Wen, formerly known as Qi, was born in Qixian County, Taiyuan (now Shanxi Province), a poet, poet and writer in the late Tang Dynasty.

According to historical records, Wen said that "the sound that a string can play is a kind word", to the effect that Wen is familiar with music and good at writing lyrics. His poems are flowery, elegant and exquisite, mostly for the feelings of the boudoir. They are as famous as Li Shangyin and are called "arts and sciences".

One of the characteristics of literary words is to fill in the lyrics from a female perspective and describe the emotional world of women in a female tone. The content of his words is mainly about love, love and lovesickness.

Wen deliberately pursues perfection in ci, pays attention to literary talent and emotion, and is superior to other poets in the late Tang Dynasty. He is the chief poet of Huajian School, known as the originator of Huajian School, and has a great influence on the development of Ci. "Bodhisattva Man Stacking Gold on the Hill" can be said to be one of his representative works, and the original words are as follows:

The mountains overlap, and the clouds want to smell the snow on their cheeks. Too lazy to draw a moth eyebrow, too late to make up and wash.

Look in the mirror before and after the flowers, and look at the flowers. The new post is embroidered with lolo, all of which are golden partridges.

The content of this word is very simple. According to the order of women's daily life, it presents a gorgeous picture of dressing up.

From the form of expression, Wen made full use of the gentle features of Ci, and integrated vivid interior decoration, costumes, manners and vague emotions, successfully expressing the indescribable artistic conception and sensible beauty with metaphor.

If you can find two words to sum up the general idea of this word, the word "dress" is the most representative. The opening sentence is "hills overlap and gold disappears", and "hills" is a popular eyebrow shape in the Tang Dynasty.

Among the female thrushes in the Tang Dynasty, there is an eyebrow shape called "mountain eyebrow". Different shades of eyebrows and Daisy will form overlapping sensory features, which look like rolling mountains.

"Gold" is a flower ornament made of metal foil, which is worn on a woman's forehead, that is, a flower bud. The bud has three colors: red, green and yellow. They are made of precious metals such as gold and silver, which are attached to the forehead and are popular makeup in the Tang Dynasty.

In the second sentence, "the cloud on the sideburns incense", the heroine in the word is lying in bed before getting up, and her hair at the sideburns presents elegant beauty. The word "desire" expresses this state. That is, the hair will cross the face, but it will cross the face.

The heroine's hair is between moving and immobile, and it seems to be in a state of moving and immobile, which is keenly captured by the poet. Her gentle and lovely hair is full of tender and charming feelings, and the meaning of words also presents a hazy beauty, while the poet's pen is a picture of "sleeping beauty"

The poet's description of this female detail is very vivid, which also shows that his observation is meticulous and accurate, and the heroine's state has been vividly presented in the poet's vivid description.

The above two sentences describe women's faces, following the order of first up and then down, first in the middle and then on both sides, which is very organized. Together, the two sentences mean: she frowned slightly, and the golden light on her forehead flashed or went out; Her hair, like a cloud, passed lightly over her white face.

Obviously, Wen has made great efforts in describing female images in Ci. The first sentence describes the shape of eyebrows with mountains, the second sentence describes her hair with clouds, and compares her cheeks with snow. Poets use natural scenery to compare people's faces, and the clever use of rhetorical devices enhances the sense of rhythm and rhythm in their works.

"lazy to draw a moth eyebrow, late to make up and wash." Women lie lazily in bed and don't want to get up or draw their eyebrows. She just lay quietly, and it was a long time before she got up and began to wash and dress.

It can be seen from the words "lazy" and "late" that the heroine is not interested in dressing up. What is the reason? As mentioned above, Wen's lyrics are written in feminine style from the perspective of women, so the meaning of the lyrics will not be interrupted. The lazy state of women in ci is just one of the pictures that the poet wants to describe.

Women in writing are gentle and lovely, and their emotions are subtle and obscure. Poets express beauty through a lot of side descriptions or charming scenery.

The colors and scenes are harmonious, and the lazy image of the woman in the ci reflects the intuitive feeling of beauty. The affection brought by these scenes is the hope and expectation of the woman.

From the poet's careful description of decorations, we can see that the woman in the poem has a rich and superior family environment, and both makeup and dressing are very fashionable. There must be a reason why she doesn't want to get up, but the poet doesn't want to show it here.

The following two sentences follow the specific situation of the previous sentence: when wearing flowers, put the front and rear mirrors, which are very meticulous and exquisite, and the beauty and face complement each other, making people feel like flowers, charming and gorgeous.

Exquisite makeup needs careful drawing. "Look in the mirror before and after the flowers, and the flowers are right." According to the general makeup steps, after dressing, you should make up carefully in front of the mirror.

Everyone loves beauty, especially the woman in this word. She is very concerned about her makeup, which is different from the heroine between the lines. She has two mirrors, one for the front and the other for the back. The front is a big mirror that can shine on the upper body, and the back is a small mirror that can only shine on a small part of the body.

Sitting in front of the big mirror, the heroine can clearly see her dress in front of her, but she can't see the bun and hairpin behind her.

So she picked up a small mirror with a handle and reached into the back of her head, so that beautiful hairpin flowers and her face appeared in the big mirror. In the mirror was a beautiful woman with delicate makeup and a confident face.

What did the heroine do after dressing up and looking in the mirror? The phrase "new embroidery, golden partridge" is exactly what she will do next.

After getting dressed, the heroine began to do needlework. He wants to embroider a pattern on the short skirt, which happens to be a pair of partridge patterns.

At this point, it is self-evident why the heroine in the last film "is lazy to paint a moth eyebrow and wash her face at night". Even the embroidery patterns are fly with me partridges, but the heroine lives alone, alone, how can it not make people sad? This description not only fully embodies the rich style of words, but also uses things to describe people, which is even more exquisite.

What is described here is the heroine's embroidery scene, which is in sharp contrast with her previous laziness and truly reflects her inner contradictions:

Because her sweetheart is not around, no one appreciates her, so she is lazy to make up late, but a woman's love for beauty makes her instinctively draw a delicate makeup. If a woman is pleasing herself and admiring herself, and the person she loves is not around, then what if she dresses beautifully?

The last two sentences have a sudden structural change, from the description of women's appearance to clothing, focusing on the partridge pattern on women's short skirts. This patchwork expression vividly reproduces women's inner emotional fluctuations.

Wen's first poem describes a series of touching pictures of a woman waking up in the morning, dressing, fitting in front of a mirror, needlework and embroidery.

The subtle plots such as "clouds on the temples", "fragrant cheeks" and "moth's eyebrows" highlight the natural beauty of women's appearance, while "make-up" and "looking in the mirror" show the vivid and natural beauty of women through a series of specific actions, creating a fresh and dynamic world, and also intuitively expressing the poet's experience and perception of beauty.

The article uses colorful words to create female images, and describes women's appearance, clothing, daily life and psychology in detail. These together constitute the unique beauty of women and the unique artistic aesthetics of literary words. It is precisely because of this reason that Wen's ci won high praise at that time, and it is reasonable that his ci can win the favor of his contemporaries and even be selected into the anthology.
