Creation background
Editors have different opinions on the background of Feng Wei Papaya, an ancient poem in pre-Qin Dynasty. According to the statistics of Zhang Shubo's Collection of National Styles, there are mainly seven kinds of statements. The Preface to Mao Poetry in the Han Dynasty said: "Papaya is beautiful now. Tijen was defeated by Cao in Wei, but Qi Huangong saved him and sealed him, leaving only his chariots and horses. Wei people think about it, want to report it thick, and make poems. " This view was supported by Yan Gan and others in the Song Dynasty, and by Wei Yuan and others in the Qing Dynasty.
According to the textual research of three poems about the same period as Mao Dawei, Chen Qiaozong's Textual Research on Lu's Legacy, Lu's "writing this article to reward the courtiers' thoughts" and Wang Xianqian's "The Collection of Three Poets' Righteousness" also have the same opinion. Since Zhu in the Song Dynasty, the theory of "men and women answering each other" has become popular. "Biography of Poetry" said: "I want to repay you with a little thing. Although it is not enough to repay you, I want to think it is good and don't forget my ears. Doubt is also a word that men and women give answers to, such as "fine woman."
This reflects the innovative spirit and the spirit of doubting the ancient times of the school of poetic abandonment in Song Dynasty. However, this statement was refuted by Yao Jiheng, one of the important representatives of the independent thought poetry school in Qing Dynasty. "The Book of Songs General Theory" said: "It is ridiculous to be a friend, why should it be a man or a woman!" Modern scholars generally draw lessons from Zhu's theory and point out more clearly that this poem is a love poem and the author should be a young man.
