Tian's appreciation of poetry and prose

Tian's remonstrance is praised by later generations. However, Tian is also a writer who brings forth new ideas and has a far-reaching influence on later generations, and is known as the pioneer and founder of Song literature.

Tian wrote fifty volumes of Idle Flat Collection, which has been lost today. In the forty-five years of Qianlong, Ji Xiaolan, the chief editor who usurped the Four Ku Quanshu, carved the Famous Pan Anji into a volume, and compiled his poems into thirty volumes, which have been handed down to this day. Ji Xiaolan wrote in the abstract of Xian Ping Ji: "Fan Zhongyan wrote the epitaph, Sima Guang wrote the tombstone, and Su Shi prefaced Jia Yi's memorial. Because the author is a great man in the world, Xi's life is well known. Poetry is the rest, but it is also typical. Its spirit is aboveboard, it is. The income of SARS ninja seems to be. " Tian's poems are harmonious, simple, popular, magnificent and picturesque. For example:

Hundred miles high, one bend, eighty-four episodes of Qingyun.

The stars dripped down the waterfall, and the Lanlouxue Temple in May was cold.

The sunset suddenly came with black rain and hail, and thunder and fire burned the dead branches of Chinese fir.

When you are in a small world, you can take care of the East China Sea.

Take a closer look at the early morning sun. The fire spirit turned the ball a hundred feet.

Pupils are floating in the water, and Emei is shining towards the clouds.

-Emei Mountain Song ("Xian Ping Ji" Volume 19)

When the poet was young, he visited Hongyabi and Emei Mountain many times. The poem describes in detail the majestic, strange, steep, beautiful and secluded scenery of Mount Emei, and also incorporates his own aspirations into the Song of Mount Emei, such as:

Warm wind in Baipingzhou, silver Zheng singing on the painted floor sill.

The sonorous rhythm is fast and slow, and the sky is full of music.

-"Kite Song" ("Xian Ping Ji" Volume 18)

When Tian was young, he used to fly a kite in Baipingzhou in the east of Hongya, and he still remembers it decades later. This song "Kite Song" is a beautiful memory of his hometown scenery and youth.

Tian's outstanding contribution to the literary world in the early Song Dynasty also lies in his Ci and Fu. In the early Song Dynasty, the literary world was still permeated with the wind of Five Dynasties and Ten Countries. At that time, the scholar-officials were still immersed in such frenzied ci-fu as Spring Flowers and Autumn Moon and How Much Sorrow and Hate. Tian tried to get rid of the accumulated disadvantages in the literary world and reverse the style of writing through his own literary creation. He advocates free and lively creative thinking and thinks that literature is the carrier to express his true thoughts. With this creative thinking, Tian tried a variety of ways to express his thoughts in literary creation, which made positive contributions to the change of writing style since the Five Dynasties and had a far-reaching impact on later generations.

Tian's pursuit of bold and unconstrained beauty in ci and fu creation is reflected in his "Zhuge Wolong Fu": "Heaven will destroy Han, and the world will be in chaos. Treacherous men strive for hegemony, while heroes strive for good calculations. Jiangdong has the powerful imperial power of Sun Quan, and Guanzhong has the bravery of Tsao Gong. However, the danger of Shu paid a price for Liu Zhang's cowardice. Xu Shu, a native of Donghai, recommended Kongming to his late teacher. He compared himself to wind music, and the traces were still cultivated on eight acres of land, which was a slight defeat for the overlord. Every eulogy to Fu Liang ... can be condescending, but it is difficult to invite. " Zhuge Wolong Fu (Xian Ping Ji, Volume 5). This poem was rated as a famous poem in the Song Dynasty by scholars who studied literary works in the Song Dynasty, and it is as famous as Ode to Autumn by Ouyang Xiu, Fu on Red Wall by Su Shi and Fu on Burning Incense by Lu You. At the beginning of this poem, Tian described the world situation at the end of Han Dynasty in short words. The comparison among Sun Quan, Cao Cao and Liu Zhang leads to the image of Zhuge Liang. He believes that Zhuge Liang has the ability to rule the country and rule the world, and he is more intelligent than ordinary people. The relationship between him and Liu Bei is "the light will, and the first master will manage it." If the dragon gets the water, he will get the master. " "Zhuge Liang made immortal contributions and became a model of eternal civil servants, which was deeply respected and admired by Tian.

Tian Xisheng lives in Yumei Hongya, with beautiful mountains and rivers and simple folk customs. He kept close contact with the famous "Nine Poets" in Emei Mountain and Northern Song Dynasty, and his poems were constantly sung. Nostalgia, one of the "nine sons", once gave a gift of "sending the field to mothering" (not admitted to the home of Jinshi). The poem says:

You miss him alone, and Wan Li has no place to live.

Calculated as exhausted, only a few old friends are left to live alone.

There is a risk of floating clouds on the plank road, and the knife looks weak.

There was a public recommendation in the early stage, so don't put up with wearing old clothes.

Ouyang Xiu also advocates nostalgia. In this case, Tian's character is romantic. He worships Li Bai, who is also a Shu native. In volume 17 of Xianping Collection, when reading Hanlin Collection, he praised it like this:

Too white to be immortal, change wine for stork hair.

A boat creates a sea of clouds and stirs the southern princes.

The ministers greeted them in the suburbs and kept blowing Luodaozhou.

If you are hungry, you can fly easily.

Sunset castle peak pavilion, floating clouds yellow crane tower.

A sea of songs, surging rivers and lakes.

I went to Wang Wei's home and paid a long visit to Jingzhou, South Korea.

With a thousand years of heroic spirit, Lin Jun 'an can be surprised.

In literary creation, he also inherited Li Bai's romantic literary tradition, and his strange and rich imagination and magnificent artistic conception were rare in the literary world in the early Song Dynasty.

Tian Xi's masterpiece, I think it is his "Yi Tian Fu Jian":

"The ancient emperor's sword can be verified by his words. If the snow-capped mountains are white, their light will be very strong. If your eyes are bright, lean on the dome. "Another example:" Wewe Chan, a magnificent husband, fell into the river in the wrong astrology tens of millions of miles away, fearing elves and seeing ghosts and gods. Turn into a beautiful night scene, if the sky is bright, shine on the edge of the secluded capital, if the sun is shining, take care of the sea to quench it, making Atai Mountain the mainstay of his work. At first glance, it looks like a killer, and the whale runs away from the dragon and the snake rises. Looking at it again, it's dark and dense, and I don't want it to be tens of millions. It's snowy and frosty, rainy and haunted, and the sum of spring scenery is the breath of autumn suburbs; Yi Yantian's sorrow is as deep as a cold valley. " ("Xian Ping Ji" Volume 5).

The author is extremely open-minded and unrestrained in the world, thus building a magnificent artistic realm. Tian's pursuit of greatness and magnificence inherited Li Bai's romanticism, opened a brand-new road for the literary world in the early Song Dynasty, set a model for innovative writing style, and changed the literary world in the early Song Dynasty.

Tian's poems have various styles. Besides pursuing greatness, he is also good at writing fresh and beautiful literary scenes to express his feelings of missing his hometown. Pu's Fu Xiaozhai said: "The first minister of the Song Dynasty, observing his beautiful Fu in Spring Clouds and Xiaoying, was endowed with plum blossoms by Song Guangping." In his masterpiece "Ode to a Spring Cloud", he described it like this: "Sometimes it rains and flies, and the spring cold is miserable. Sometimes the smoke is around, and the spring sound is getting longer. " "Or Cangwu north and south, or Mengze east and west, or Fan Chuan and Wangchuan, Chengwuxi and Yue, or gardens, go to the cage path with bamboo shade, or sink trees with peach blossoms." ("Xian Ping Ji" Volume 5). This poem vividly describes the clouds in spring. In his works, spring is soothing and elegant, expressing a calm and leisurely state of mind.

Tian's ability to write such a masterpiece as "Ode to Spring Clouds" is inseparable from his time. Most of the famous literary figures in the early Song Dynasty were old ministers of the Southern Tang Dynasty. They were miserable when they first entered the new dynasty. Fortunately, both Taizong and Taizong emphasized that civilian officials should govern the world and be able to worship officials and participate in politics. Temporarily heal the trauma of the soul, so as to regain the mood to engage in literary creation. However, his literary works are deeply influenced by Li Tang's ci style, and most of them are landscapes, heartless scenery and poor ci. However, this style dominated the literary world at that time, and Tian was different from them. In three years, he won the second place in Taiping Shengshi High School, reaching the highest level of scholars. He is full of ambition, full of ambition, naturally happy, endless beauty. Tian's Fu on Spring Clouds adds this elegant and agile style, which is also the ideal style that Tian pursues.

In the Fu of Early Autumn by He Lu, Tian's description of autumn scenery conveys a leisurely feeling of bowing to the prosperous times: "Autumn can be rewarded, first in the bleak, shining in the imperial capital." Tung leaves are hidden, magnolia flowers are in the golden well, osmanthus flowers are long, and pearls break the cold curtain. The white dew falls, weeds grow in the court, cicadas sing endlessly, and grass does not rot. "-"xianping set "volume 7. Many people write about autumn scenery to express their sadness, but this poem expresses the joy of crisp autumn air, breezy breezes and sunny days, and shows the author's infinite love for nature and life.

The emotional expression of Tian Shanshui's poems is subtle and tortuous, graceful and graceful, which is quite different from the literary and ruthless style at that time. The magnificent, elegant and elegant beauty pursued by Tian's poems is also the embodiment of his efforts to change the style of writing.

Since Song Taizong, poems, words, songs, eulogies and praises for peace and tranquility have been strengthened. In 983, in the eighth year of Taiping and Xingguo, in the pavilion of Ganming Festival, 19 poems about Ganming Festival were presented together with other summoned courtiers. Emperor Taizong's praise for the public alone was based on Yun Xi, which made the Prime Minister announce it. It can be seen that I appreciate Tian's article. The appreciation of Emperor Taizong further stimulated Tian's creative passion. Since Emperor Taizong ascended the throne, the country has been relatively stable and the economy has been relatively prosperous, showing a peaceful scene in which a group of people live and work in peace. Tian bowed to the prosperous times and naturally rejoiced. Tian's "Chang Zhi Fu" expresses such a state of mind: "It is the best day for the United States and Iraq to be cold. The test day is in the calendar, the test star is higher than the domain person, and the cathode is born in the sun. Go-around to join the mountains, join the pearls, and fight for Liu Mu and Tianjin. ..... full of bells, countless Zhu Cuiyun, Huatang present, candlelight shining, Luo Xuan brilliant, very lively. " From street song and dance performances to delicacies at banquets, and then to noisy street hawking, it shows the joyful scene of Bianjing Winter Solstice Festival, showing a picture of prosperity. I'm afraid this is the blueprint of The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival by Zhang Zeduan, a painter in the Song Dynasty.

Tian Xian Ping Ji has 24 existing essays, which are divided into five volumes and nine volumes. Fu is the main style of Tian's literary creation. Fu has the characteristics of both poetry and prose, and it is easy to influence other styles. Tian's efforts to change the style of writing in the late Tang Dynasty were to consciously break through the boundaries of the style of writing and make them integrate with each other. Tian's reference to Fu embodies this literary atmosphere and has a far-reaching influence on later writers.

Liu Yong, a famous poet in Song Dynasty, was deeply influenced by Tian Xifu. Liu Yong wrote many poems about festivals, such as Spring Festival, Lantern Festival and Tomb-Sweeping Day. His "The Sound of Music * No Flowers Leak" wrote the Lantern Festival: "Dragon and phoenix candles, hand in the stars. There are two immortals in the wisdom Yuefu and ukulele in the pear garden. Until dawn, people are still there "and other sentences, using candlelight and music to render the festive atmosphere, its concept is basically consistent with Tian's" Fu Longzhi ". It can be seen that Tian Fu had a far-reaching influence at that time.

Fan Zhongyan, born two years later than Liu Yong, was also a pioneer of the poetry movement in the Northern Song Dynasty. Fan Zhongyan's "Yueyang Tower" has been read through the ages, and his poem "Fisherman's Pride" has broken through the content of "Huajian School", and its style is desolate and tragic, which should also be influenced by Tian's heroic and magnificent style.

Ouyang Xiu, a contemporary of Fan Zhongyan, was the leader of the poetry innovation movement in the Northern Song Dynasty, one of the eight famous poets in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and a great poet after Wang Yucheng and Tian. Ouyang Xiu used Wang, Tian and others' creative methods for reference, and created the famous poem Autumn Sound Fu, which, together with Tian's famous poem "Attacking Gan", is a work describing autumn. Autumn voice is a seamless combination of scenery, sound, scenery and lyric, such as "lush vegetation and green trees" Like Tian Xizhi's Ode to Early Autumn, it expresses sincere praise for the beautiful scenery in autumn and infinite yearning for a better life.

Thirty-four years after Tian's death (1037), a great writer-Su Shi was born in his hometown Meishan. Su Shi is a master of poems, words, songs, poems, books and paintings, and his Poem on the Red Wall is the pinnacle of this literary work. "Former Red Cliff Fu" is vigorous and unrestrained. Describing the beautiful scenery of boating on the Yangtze River on a moonlit night is profound in philosophy from scenery to emotion. Such as: "Xiaoyan, the moon rises in Dongshan, wandering in the bullfighting room, the white dew crossing the river, and the water meets the sky. What a reed can do makes Wan Qing at a loss. The vastness is like leaning on the virtual wind, but it doesn't stop there. It's like leaving the world to be independent and becoming immortal. " Su Shi painted a magnificent picture of wandering in the vast and empty world, which contained his own life feeling of being "left behind", and the scene was mixed and fascinating. Su Dongpo sublimated Tian's pursuit of beauty and grace into the outline of the realm outside the image, and pushed the scenery description of Ci Fu to a new realm where things and I don't look at each other. "Nian Nujiao * Red Cliff Nostalgia" brought Tian's heroic style to the extreme. "The river of no return is a romantic figure through the ages". Scholars of all ages are reciting. "Meishan style originated from Shu Rentian". (Guo Shaoyu's History of China Literary Criticism). This shows the influence of Tian on "San Su".

Tian has been the second-in-command for twenty-five years, dare to speak out and refuse to go to the door of power. Geng Jie doesn't like making friends. Every day in his spare time, he went into the study to write books and wrote many literary works. After Tian's death, most of his manuscripts were burned, and only Xian Ping Ji and Qu Ben Cao were handed down from generation to generation. Tian's literary works, especially Fu, have the highest achievements. Li Diaoyuan, a talented Sichuan scholar in the Qing Dynasty, commented in his book Hua Fu that Tian's poems "still have the legacy of the prosperous Tang Dynasty", and "in terms of the purpose of ci and fu, they are full of sounds and feelings, distinctive syllables and gentle, and they live up to the people of the Tang Dynasty".

As the pioneer and founder of the literary world in the early Song Dynasty, Tian improved the decadent writing style since the Five Dynasties with his distinctive literary thoughts, unique literary theories and rich creative practice, as well as his pursuit of beauty, elegance and grace in his works. The creation of poetry and fu in the Northern Song Dynasty entered a prosperous period, showing new style characteristics. It had a far-reaching impact on the development of poetry and fu in later generations, directly promoted the innovation movement of ancient Chinese prose in the Song Dynasty, and left a glorious footprint in the political culture of the Song Dynasty. In his hometown, later generations took Tian as an example and formed a strong atmosphere of poetry and calligraphy. In the Song Dynasty, more than 1200 literati headed by "Su San" emerged in Meishan. Thirteen scholars were born in Dongshi, Jiangjun Township, Hongya County in recent decades, which is extremely rare in the history of imperial examinations in China. No wonder Song Zhenzong marveled that "all the studious people in the world come out of Meishan"; Luyou will have the reputation of "here breeds beauty, a Millennium poetry book city". Tian will be remembered in the hearts of every descendant and handed down from generation to generation.
