"Jian 'an style" has always been a recognized proposition in the history of literature, which generally refers to the bright, hearty and vigorous style of Jian 'an literature (especially five-character poems).
"Wen Xin Diao Long" is devoted to "the character of the wind", which is considered to be the most wonderful and puzzling theoretical proposition of Liu Xie and one of the most outstanding achievements of his theory. Liu Xie's "Wen Xin Diao Long Feng Gu" summarizes "Feng Gu" very succinctly: "To express your feelings, you must start with the wind; Thoughtful words, not before bones. So think of words as bones, such as the skeleton of the body; Love contains wind, and it is still shaped by gas. When the words are straight, the bones become awkward; When the spirit is cool, the style of writing will be clear. " He believes that if rhetoric is too rich and not vivid, then rhetoric is not clear and the tone is weak. "So, people who practice to the bone will be refined in the analysis; Those with deep winds will show their feelings. "
