The Writing Background of The Book of Songs Picking Wei

Xiaoya Cai Wei is a military song, written for soldiers who returned from a long defense, and is considered as a work of the Western Zhou Dynasty. Zhou Wenwang, Zhou Yiwang and Zhou Xuanwang wrote this poem three times. Judging from the content of this poem, Wang Wen said it was not desirable. Because from the narrative point of view, it is a question of returning to war, not a question of going to war;

From the lyric point of view, there is a sad feeling, no comfort. There is not a word of the emperor in the whole poem. It is unfounded to say that Zhou Wenwang's "Picking the EU" sent troops to garrison, so Cui Shu, Yao Jiheng and Fang Yurun in the Qing Dynasty all opposed this statement.

When talking about current events in Zhou Yiwang, "there is no clear text in the classics" (analysis of the annotations of Cheng Junying's The Book of Songs, etc. ), and the later publication of Hanshu is based on poetry, which cannot be falsified. It is said that this is a current event in Wang Xuan, which is based on archaeological achievements and is not supported by literature.

Appreciation of Xiaoya Cai Wei's Works

Xiaoya and Cai Wei is a poem in China's ancient realistic poetry collection The Book of Songs. This is a poem about returning home, singing the hard life and homesickness of soldiers who joined the army. This poem consists of six chapters, each with eight sentences.

In the first five sections, the author focuses on the hardships of life, strong homesickness and the reasons why he can't go home for a long time, revealing that soldiers have both the pleasure of defending the enemy and the pain of fighting, showing their desire for peace. The last chapter ends the poem with a painful lyric, which is touching.

This poem uses overlapping sentence patterns and figurative techniques, which embodies the artistic characteristics of The Book of Songs. The first four sentences of the last chapter describe the scenery and feelings at two specific moments, namely, going out that year and surviving today. The words are simple and profound, and the scenes blend, which is a famous sentence widely read in the Book of Songs.
