Creation background
This poem has not been tested for many years, and Feng Zhu thought it was a poem. This poem was written by the poet when he went upstairs to overlook the scenery on a moonlit night in late autumn.
Literary appreciation
Literally, the poem describes the scenery of the moonlit night in late autumn, but it is not a static description, but uses myths and legends to describe the beauty of Leng Yan on the moonlit night. The first sentence shows that the frost is cold in the sky and late autumn has arrived. The second sentence says that the moonlight is clear and the sky is high and the clouds are light. Write three or four sentences about the extraordinary goddess and strive for beauty and beauty. Poetry is based on imagination, the artistic conception is quiet and ethereal, and Leng Yan is unique. It can explain the aesthetic tendency of Yishan's poetry.
Literary works, especially poems, are characterized by emotion in scenes and interest in images. The poet is not only a master of sketching, but also a painter who shapes things. The most common theme, written by outstanding poets, can often create superb and beautiful artistic conception. Li Shangyin's Frost Moon will have such characteristics.
This poem was written in late autumn, watching the night scene of the frosty moon in a tall building near the water. It just means that the moon is white and the frost is clear, which brings people a cold autumn. Such scenery will make people feel relaxed and happy. However, the enjoyment of beauty given to readers by this poem greatly exceeds people's feelings in similar actual environments. The image of the poem is clear and simple, and its connotation is rich.
In autumn, flowers and trees are withered, everything you see in your eyes is yellow and colorless; However, the frost marks of the clear moon shadow are particularly bright. "The young woman Su E is cold-resistant, and the frost fights in the middle of the month." Although "the tall building is rich in jade, and the top is too cold", the peerless beauty of jade bone's ice muscles is more obvious in the cold night. Their graceful appearance is different from ordinary powder because they are cold-resistant, so they can stand the test of cold.
Writing Frost Moon is not from Frost Moon itself, but from Su E and Tsing Yi in the middle of Frost Moon; Qing women and Su E are the symbols of frost and moon in poetry. In this way, the poet describes not only the natural scene of autumn night, but also the soul of clear autumn and the spirit of frosty moon. This spirit is the natural beauty excavated by the poet from the night scene of frosty moon, and it also reflects the poet's deep pursuit of beauty and longing for light in the turbid realistic environment. This is the high standard and unique vulgarity of his character and the natural expression of Geng Jie's disobedience. Of course, I am not sure that the hardy Su E and Qing Nv are poets of self-metaphor; In other words, it means something else. Expressing feelings and interests in poetry is not so narrow. Wang Fuzhi put it well: "Prosperity is between intentional and unintentional." If the understanding of carving a boat for a sword is too tight, its meaning will be narrowed and its aesthetic value will be reduced.
Fan Yuan's poem says, "A mountain poem is called by the world, and it is as famous as Wen. The folk custom of Gai only sees its skin, and its high feelings are far-reaching and unknown. " He cited articles such as "Prepare a Post" and "Ma Wei" to illustrate. (See Wei Qingzhi's Poet Jade Chips, Volume 15, Poetry Eyes. In fact, Li Shangyin's "high sentiment and far-reaching meaning" can also be seen in more short improvisational poems. Ye Xie saw this, so he pointed out that Li Shangyin's seven-character quatrain was "deeply needled and well worded" (outside the original poem). This poem can also be seen.
There are some noteworthy points in the artistic technique of this poem: the poet's brushwork hovers completely in the air, and the poetic scenery is fleeting like a mirage; The image of poetry is a perfect whole composed of fantasy and reality. It's late autumn, and the branches can't hear cicadas. In the vast sky, from time to time came the sound of panic. In the frosty midnight snack on the moon, the tall building leans alone and the water meets the sky, which is clear and empty. "When I first heard about geese, there were no cicadas" is a realistic environmental background. This kind of environment is the cradle of beautiful imagination, which will arouse people's idea of getting rid of vulgarity and dust. It is in this cradle that the poet's spiritual building flies into the mythical world of the moon, the earth and the clouds. The artistic conception in the last two sentences is derived from the first two sentences.
