Two Poems of Palace Poetry is a five-character quatrain composed by Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Hu. These two poems are mainly about the sadness of imperial secretary. The first poem is about a folk woman living in a secluded palace, which ruined her life's extreme sorrow in vain and objectively exposed the cruelty of the maid-in-waiting system. The second poem points out the words "where to sing the new voice" and "heartbroken", and expresses the imperial secretary's sorrow through the new voice. These two poems are sincere, sad and touching, with refined language and exquisite ingenuity.
Five-character metrical poem, referred to as Five Laws for short, is a kind of metrical poem. A poem with five words and eight sentences that conforms to the norms of rhythmic poetry is a five-word rhythmic poem, which belongs to the category of modern poetry.
Five-character metrical poems inherit the basic characteristics of five syllables per sentence, two sentences in a whole text and even total sentences, and at the same time add the rules of duality and levelness. And these rules are borrowed from parallel prose; Parallel prose is produced from Chu ci to Han fu; Therefore, in the final analysis, the five laws are the product of the grafting of the five ancient and parallel styles.
There are three types of metrical poems in Qi-Liang style: antithetical law (which refers to the metrical form in which all verses are not adhered to each other), adherent law (which refers to the metrical form in which all verses are adhered to each other) and adherent-antithetical mixed law (which refers to the metrical form in which all verses are adhered to each other), but the antithetical law is the main one, which is far from perfect modern poetry. Among them, from the middle and late Liang Dynasty to the Chen Dynasty, some works by Yin Keng, Zhang Zhengjian, Yu Xin, Xu Ling, etc. are very close to the Tang Dynasty's regular poems. In the Sui Dynasty, Yang Su, Lu Sidao, Xue Daoheng and others, combined with the gorgeous ci poetry in the Southern Dynasty and the fresh and vigorous atmosphere in the Northern Region, created some poems that were clear, healthy and beautiful, pointing out the way for the development of poetry in the transitional period.
since the early Tang dynasty, the phenomenon of semi-ancient and semi-rhythmic poetic style appeared in the process of poetic legalization was improved by the four outstanding poets in the early Tang dynasty, and the works of five-character rhythmic poems were sharply reduced. At the same time, some modern poems failed to harmonize rhythm, leaving more traces of transition stage. The following articles, Four Friends (Du Shenyan, Li Qiao, Cui Rong, Su Weidao), Shen Quanqi, Song Zhiwen, etc., show the trend of further consolidation and promotion for the initial achievements and practical achievements of the four outstanding poets in separating and standardizing the chaotic state since the early Tang Dynasty. It can be said that at the end of the early Tang Dynasty, the five-law antithetical works have disappeared, thus bidding farewell to the antithetical structure of Yongming style completely; The works of sticking to the mixed law also showed a sharp decline, while the works of sticking to the law increased greatly and occupied a dominant position, which showed that the poets in the early Tang Dynasty had found the goal of pursuing the temperament and made great achievements: the rules of sticking to the five laws were determined. Poets such as Shen Quanqi and Song Zhiwen, in particular, summed up the achievements of new-style poetry since the Southern Dynasties, fixed the relatively mature form, and finally completed the task of "avoiding the sound disease and keeping the sentence accurate", and formally finalized the five laws in their creation. The Complete Tang Poetry contains nearly 2 poems by Song Zhiwen in three volumes and more than 15 poems by Shen Quanqi in three volumes, most of which are metrical poems. In the Ming Dynasty, Hu Yinglin said in "Poems": "The five-character law is a sign from Liang Chen. In the early Tang Dynasty, the four sons were ashamed of each other, but sometimes they were clumsy and not as good as the beginning. The dragon is returning, and it is outstanding. "
Five-character rhythmic poems were shaped in the early Tang Dynasty and eventually matured in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Du Fu's works best represent the achievements of the Five Laws in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Hu Yinglin's "Poetry" said: "Only the works of the Ministry of Industry are majestic in weather and huge in scale. When they come to mind, they are intricate and unreal, and they cannot be traced. It' s only one person to pay back through the ages. " The evaluation is extremely high. The Complete Tang Poetry contains more than 13 poems by Du Fu in 19 volumes, of which modern poems account for the majority, and modern poems account for the majority. Among them, there are hundreds of famous five laws, such as Spring Watch, Moonlit Night, Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night, Climbing Yueyang Tower, a night abroad, Jianghan and Riverside.
