Cao Zhi and the Learning and Reference of Nineteen Ancient Poems

Ancient romantic Cao Zijian

During the Three Kingdoms period, my favorite figures were Cao Zijian and Lu Boyan.

Tonight, a person opened the annals of the Three Kingdoms and read the biographies of two people. I didn't expect it to be 2: 30 in the morning. After writing this article, you should go to bed at once, otherwise, you will finish your balls tomorrow.

Lu Xun, I don't want to say it yet. Now let's talk about Cao Zijian.

In the history of China literature, there are two pure writers, which makes me very distressed. One is Cao Zijian, and the other is Li Yu. Cao Zijian died at the age of forty-one, and Li Yu was thirty-nine. On July 7th, Song Gaozong died of poisoned wine. Both of them died at the peak of literary creation. Cao Zijian died of melancholy, while Li Yu died of pain. These two people were born in the imperial family at the same time, and it is entirely possible that there are ten thousand people in the world. However, it was writing that ruined their future.

"The History of the Three Kingdoms" says that "plants are willful, not self-motivated, and drinking is unrestrained". On the way to March and fight, they even drank too much and delayed the military plane. At this time, no matter how much Cao Cao loves this son, he is not at ease to give him the whole world. It is destiny takes a hand that he can only use his literary talent to vent his depression. As the saying goes, "aim high and be sparse", so is it. Scholars are always like this, with lofty ideals but no talent, such as Li Bai and Wen Tianxiang.

However, on the other hand, it also makes Cao Zijian famous for its eternal romance. Li Bai's poem said, "People in ancient times have forgotten the sage, and only drinkers can keep his name. Prince Chen spent 10,000 yuan on a barrel of wine at the banquet in the Perfect Palace. Many people smiled and said," Master, why did you say that your money is missing? And the road must be taken according to your discretion, and the streaky horse calls for wine, which will lead you to eternal sorrow. " Xie Lingyun, another famous poet after Cao Zijian, also said that the world is divided into ten fights, Cao Zijian has eight fights, he has one, and everyone has one. Therefore, later generations often use "talented people" to describe talented people.

I don't know why Cao Zhi is so good, even though he doesn't care about his future! Making contributions has always been Cao Zhi's dream. Even after being demoted to Juancheng Hou by xelloss, he kept writing letters asking xelloss to allow him to lead the troops to fight, hoping to discuss state affairs with xelloss, but xelloss ruthlessly refused. Later generations are fond of catching the wind and catching shadows, which is related to Zhen Fei. I can only avoid talking about these specious things. I think it has something to do with his talent. The History of the Three Kingdoms said that he was in his teens, read hundreds of thousands of words of poetry, ethics and ci, and was good at writing. Taizu tasted the text and said,' Are you evil?' Zhi knelt down and said,' If you have something to say, you can write a chapter. How can you be honest if you want an interview? At that time, Cecilia Yip Jue was newly formed, and Taizu was informed that all Jinshi should take the stage and let them do their jobs. Planting AIDS are impressive and very different from wool. It's simple, and it can't cure reputation. The costumes of horses and chariots are not gorgeous, so it's hard to ask every time you see them. You answer them, which is particularly popular. "

In fact, most people who can achieve great things in history have a rough fate and a hard life when they are young. In the end, they will bear the burden of humiliation, endure what ordinary people can't stand and do what ordinary people can't do. For example, Lu Xun was an orphan when he was young, Zhuge Liang was born a commoner, and Cao Cao himself finally achieved great things through life and death. Cao Zhi's premature talent hurt his political talent. Perhaps, it is the sentence "Heaven gives birth to genius, and Heaven envies talents."

I can't help feeling sorry for Cao Zhi's willfulness and behavior tonight, but my eyes almost filled with tears when I said, "I'm so drunk that I regret it."

Romantic Cao Zijian, whose articles are eternal,

Wayward and intoxicating, where is Mo Wen Road?

It's hard to get fame and ambition when you're empty. In this life, you have to sigh that the road is long and Xiu Yuan is Xi.

My generation has its own loneliness, blooming like a plum blossom.

From the artistic style:

The sentimental sentiment laid down in Nineteen Ancient Poems "from Jian 'an to Jin and Song Dynasties, from the lower class to the royal family, spread in a long time and became the typical tone of the whole era. "For example, Jian 'an poets directly inherited the style of nineteen ancient poems, taking generosity and sadness as beauty, and Cao Zhi's poems were also deeply influenced by it. Cao Cao's "when drinking, life is geometric, such as morning dew, and it is more bitter to go to Japan." The artistic style of pursuing natural beauty in Nineteen Ancient Poems also had a far-reaching impact on later generations. Like Xie Lingyun's landscape poems, they have the most "fresh and natural" aesthetic feeling and are praised by many people. He also inherited the poetic tradition of imitating nature from Nineteen Ancient Poems.

Cao Zhi is a representative writer of Jian 'an literature. The distinctive styles of his poetry creation are "Hua Mao's ci" and "flying literary talent". "Ci adopts Hua Mao" not only refers to his gorgeous rhetoric, exquisite literary talent, refined and vivid language, but also refers to the richness and beauty of his literary expression. It embodies the literary view of Cao Zhi's poetic thought, that is, paying equal attention to emotion and literature, literature and quality, and content and form. The artistic style and value orientation of Cao Zhi's poetry directly or indirectly opened the development and prosperity of poetry in the Six Dynasties and even in the Tang Dynasty.

Comparison of creative methods:

Nineteen Ancient Poems opened up a new way for literati to create five-character poems, and created a new style for literati to suit both refined and popular tastes. This artistic mode of lyric poetry created conditions for the development of poetry in Wei, Jin and Six Dynasties and laid the foundation for the prosperity of Tang poetry.

Nineteen Ancient Poems is the beginning of the development of China's poems from "expressing ambition" to "fatalism", and the beginning of the transformation from narration to lyricism. Nineteen Ancient Poems expresses personal feelings freely and openly, which opens up a new description field for China's classical poems. "

Cao Zhi represents the era style and the highest achievement of the whole Jian 'an literature. His works are divided into two periods, with Cao Pi claiming to be the emperor. In the early stage, I mainly sang my own ideals and ambitions, and in the later stage, I mainly expressed the grief and indignation aroused by the contradiction between ideals and reality. In the early stage, his representative works were White Horse Essays, and in the later stage, his representative works were Seven Wounded Poems and White Horse Wang Biao. Cao Zhi has many innovations and developments in the art of poetry. Especially in the creation of five-character poems. Most of the ancient poems in Han Yuefu are mainly narrative, and lyrical elements did not occupy an important position in the works until Nineteen Ancient Poems. Cao Zhi developed this trend, organically combining lyricism with narration, so that the five-character poems can not only describe the complicated state of affairs, but also express the tortuous psychology.
