A brief analysis of the differences and connections between "Poetic Expression" and "Poetry's Emotion"

In ancient poetry theory, there are two propositions: "poetry expresses ambition" and "poetry expresses emotion"

The "Yan Zhi theory" comes from "Shang Shu"; the "Lyric theory" came into being in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. The main similarities and differences are as follows:

Differences: The most fundamental difference between "poetry about emotions" and "poetry about ambition" is that "poetry about ambition" requires "to express emotions and stop at etiquette and justice". The poet's Emotion must conform to the moral norms of Confucianism;

"Yuanqing" is "motivated by emotion" and does not "stop at etiquette". Poets no longer need to constrain themselves with artificial moral norms. They can freely express their temperament in poems based entirely on the poet's source of knowledge, joy, anger, sorrow, and joy. It can be seen that the "new measure" of "Yuanqing" fundamentally denies the moral connotation of the traditional Confucian "expressing one's ambition" and moves poetry towards the emotional aesthetic world.

Same: For There have been two representative theories about the origin of poetry since ancient times. One is that it originates from the heart, and the other is that it originates from the heart. In this system, there are "poetry expresses ambition" and "poetry expresses emotion". , "poetry is related to emotion" and other sayings. Whether it is ambition, emotion, or emotion, they all belong to the "heart", that is to say, literature originates from the human heart.
