The cultural implication of plum blossom

The cultural implication of plum blossom

The cultural implication of plum blossom enjoys the reputation of "the crown of flowers", with both form and spirit and good color and fragrance. Many people admire the will of plum blossom. I have compiled the relevant information about the cultural significance of plum blossom for everyone. Let's have a look.

The cultural implication of plum blossom is 1. Plum blossom is not only one of the four gentlemen in flowers, but also known as "three friends who are old and cold" with Matsuzaka. As the saying goes, "when people are old and cold, they know that pines and cypresses will wither" (The Analects of Confucius). The same is true of plum blossoms. "There are several plums in the horn, and cold ling blooms alone" (Yongmei by Wang Anshi). Plum blossoms bloom in the dead of winter, and snow cuts the ice. "The snow in Mei Xu Xun is white, but the snow has lost a piece of plum fragrance." It is a symbol of pride that is not afraid of cold.

When it comes to plum blossoms, we often think of Lin Bu (bū), who is known as the "wife crane of plum blossoms". It is said that he loves Mei Aihe and never marries, taking Mei as his wife and crane as his son. He is far away from the world and has a unique pride. He lived in seclusion in a lonely mountain near the West Lake in Hangzhou and built his own house. His "Xiao Mei in the Garden in the Mountain" is the swan song of Yongmei's poetry;

Flowers withered, unique plum blossoms swept out against the wind, and the scenery of the small park was beautiful.

"Mottled shadows hang obliquely on the clear shallow water, and their fragrance spreads peacefully in the moonlight dusk."

Cold birds want to fly, first glimpse plum blossoms; Butterflies will be enchanting if they know the beauty of plum blossoms.

Fortunately, there are micro-songs to compare, and there is no need for sandalwood golden urn.

In the winter when many fragrant flowers wither, plum blossoms bloom alone, occupying a garden style. "The shadow is shallow and hydrophobic", the plum blossoms are scattered, and the reflection is oblique in the shallow water, vividly writing the hearty character of plum blossoms, how like an ink painting. "Dark fragrance floating in the moonlight" makes us smell the intoxicating fragrance of plum blossoms, which warms the cold silence of a winter. In this poem, Lin Bu expressed his aloofness and elegance far from the common customs through Yongmei.

There is also a poet who expresses his personality through plum blossoms. If Lin Bu appreciates the swaying and refinement of plum blossoms, then the poet appreciates the arrogance of plum blossoms. Lu You, a patriotic poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, wrote the word "operator":

Outside the bridge, the plum blossoms are lonely, no matter what.

Twilight arrival, plum blossom is helpless, exhausted, and has to withstand the wind and rain.

Plum blossoms don't want to compete for blooming, and the envy and rejection of flowers don't care.

Even after autumn, when it is ground into dirt and turned into dust, plum blossoms still emit fragrance as usual.

The tone of the whole word is a little cold and sad, which is in line with his mood at this time. Patriotism, like him, is hard to be rewarded. How can he not worry? Lu You was determined to serve the country all his life, but his life was bumpy. The plum blossom "smashed into mud and ground into dust" by the broken bridge blooms first in the cold, but it has no intention of fighting for spring, but it is jealous of all kinds of people. What a poet who has been suffering from all kinds of suspicions and persecution. However, plum blossoms are still in high spirits, and no matter how damaged by wind and rain, they are still as fragrant as ever. Isn't Lu You himself like this? Although life was rough, he still refused to bow his head and raise his eyebrows, leaving a piece of Kethleen?

Many poets who have experienced ups and downs have used Yongmei's beautiful sentences to express their feelings. Not only the poet, but also the painter Wang Mian's meme poems are unique.

The first tree in my Xiyan Lake is light ink.

Don't boast about the good color, just let the air be full of dried Kun.

The Meme Map of Wang Mian in Yuan Dynasty

The legend of "Xiyan Lake" is the place where calligrapher Wang Xizhi practiced calligraphy. Wang Mian and Wang Xizhi have the same surname, so he calls himself "my home". This ink plum is painted in light ink, blossoming, but not delicate. Because it doesn't need praise from others, it just wants to maintain a lofty spirit independent of heaven and earth. Wang Mian, like Wang Xizhi, is diligent and diligent, and refuses to curry favor with powerful people all his life, leading a totally clean life. Isn't it like Mo Mei headed by West Wild Goose Lake? It is with plum blossom poems and paintings that Wang Mian embodies his personal integrity.

After historical precipitation, plum blossom, as a symbol of gentleman's character, has been transformed into the spiritual blood of China literati. It has both the pride of blooming in hanling and the seclusion in Lin Bu. It is not only self-improvement without fear of cold, but also lofty and refined, which represents the gentleman temperament respected in traditional culture.

The cultural connotation of plum blossom is noble, persistent and modest. Plum blossoms grow in the silent winter, but they still stand tenaciously. Therefore, since ancient times, many literati have admired plum blossom and given it the cultural connotation of perseverance and self-improvement.

3. Shape: The ancients thought that "Mei takes potential first", that is, shape and posture.

Pine, bamboo and plum are collectively called "three friends of the old cold" by the world. On the one hand, they stand proudly in the frost and snow with their noble character of jade ice. On the other hand, they also regard them as symbols of evergreen and vigorous vitality. The three friends of the cold world have gradually evolved into auspicious patterns that cater to both refined and popular tastes, and have been passed down to this day.

The three friends in the Cold Age have an indissoluble bond with Su Dongpo, a great writer in the Song Dynasty. In the second year of North Yuanfeng, Su Dongpo, a great writer, was rejected by his ministers and exiled to Huangzhou. When he first arrived in Huangzhou, Su Dongpo was far away from his relatives and friends and felt very depressed. He had to send love poems to solve his worries. Later, his family and friends came to visit him, and his mood gradually improved. However, poverty in life is still a big problem.

In order to solve the economic difficulties, Su Dongpo reclaimed a wasteland and planted crops such as rice, wheat, mulberry and jujube. Soon, he built a small house by the field and named it "Tang Xue". There were snowflakes on four murals in the house. Su Dongpo planted pine, cypress, plum, bamboo and other flowers and trees in the yard. The whole apartment was elegantly dressed, which was very suitable for Su Dongpo's mood at that time.

On one occasion, Xu Junyou, the magistrate of Huangzhou, made a special trip to Tang Xue to visit him. Seeing that his residence was deserted and desolate, he jokingly asked him to sit and lie down. All he can see is snow. Is it too lonely and cold?

Su Dongpo pointed to the swaying flowers and trees outside the window and smiled brightly: "Wind and spring are two kinds of music, and pine and bamboo are three kinds of beneficial friends." That is to say, the sound of the breeze and the gurgling spring water are two kinds of wonderful music. The pine and cypress with evergreen leaves, the bamboo that has experienced the cold winter and the plum blossom that blooms in the proud snow are the best friends who accompany the cold winter.

When Xu Junyou saw that Su Dongpo could still encourage himself with "pine, bamboo and plum blossoms" in adversity, he still maintained Shuang Ling's noble sentiment, which was very emotional. From then on, he admired him even more.
