Qin Guan in spring

Appreciation of Qin Guan's Spring Day

Light thunder fell and floated all night.

Affectionate peony contains spring tears, weak rose lies on the branches.

The poem "Spring Day" describes the scenery of the spring courtyard at the beginning of the night rain. Silk, Yu Yu. Floating tiles, the sun shines on the tiles. Ray is "light" and rain is "silk" The poetic features of Spring Rain are only shown in two words. The green glazed tile was washed clean by a night of spring rain, glittering and translucent as jade, with water drops on it. In the morning light, it is sparkling, bright and dazzling, which makes people relaxed and happy.

Weak roses lie on the branches, and some versions write that weak roses lie on the branches at night. Peony, peony. Spring tears, raindrops. Peony is slim and graceful, roses are stretched, and each has a state of "tears in spring" and "unable to lie down".

The poet captured the characteristics of the spring rain, focused on a corner of the courtyard, and took a beautiful picture of the dawn after the thunderstorm. Through the form of duality and personification, the gorgeous courtyard is set off and the charming modality of peony and rose is depicted.

"Spring Day" has a fresh and graceful charm because of its exquisite objects and feelings, and its artistic conception is mainly "spring sorrow". Although there is no word "sorrow", it can be understood from the modality of peony and rose, and it also reflects the poet's sentimental psychology formed by his fear of career fate.

Qin Shaoyou is a famous graceful and restrained poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, and one of the four bachelor's degree students. Most of his words describe the love between men and women and the sadness of his life. His poems are also well written; But in terms of content and style, it is the same as "poetry is like fine print" In addition, Taosun Ao in the Southern Song Dynasty also said: "(Poetry) is like a woman stepping on the spring, and it will eventually be hurt."

Spring Day was ridiculed by Yuan Haowen, a writer in Jin Dynasty, as a "girl poem" because of its gentle style. Yuan Haowen extremely belittled Qin Guan's pale words. He criticized Qin Guan's "Spring Day" and said, "Love peony contains spring tears, and roses are unable to lie in the evening branches." When I came out with the stone sentence of retreat, I knew that the canal was a girl's poem. "

Softness is also a kind of beauty. Peony and rose after the storm are like two delicate girls, one tearful and the other intoxicated. Taking "tears in spring" as a metaphor for water drops and "lying down" as a symbol of "weakness" is natural and steady, and it is impossible to reach such a state without exercise.

Yuan Haowen's criticism of Qin Shaoyou's "Girls' Poems" was actually influenced by his predecessors. I once discussed with his teacher Wang Zhongli how to write a poem. The teacher quoted Qin Shaoyou's poem "Spring Rain (Sun)" and said: "The peony with love has tears in spring, and the rose is unable to lie down at dusk." This poem must be successful. If we compare it to the phrase "between a round gardenia pod and a huge banana leaf", then "spring day" is a woman's language. How can you learn from women when you break your time? "

China's poems have always been famous for their metaphors of people, emotions, ambitions and personalities. One can guess who he is by reading his poems, which is the uniqueness of China's poems. Therefore, some people say that hanging out with women will be full of love for Qin Shaoyou's rich words and erotic songs, and his poems are nothing more than sorrow for the romantic scenery and the beautiful scenery of the Spring and Autumn Period, sometimes like a proud lady, sometimes like a slut, and sometimes like a dissatisfied housewife, unable to get rid of the shape of a woman; To care about people's livelihood and the country, we must imprint the poems of Du Fu and Xin Qiji in our hearts, and the poems will be drunk and watch the sword; The river of no return, the waves are gone ... so lofty. This may be a bit biased, but we have to admit that poetry has a edifying effect on people.
