Why was Wang Changling's "Out of the Great Wall" rated as the representative work of the seven wonders of Tang poetry?

The Tang Dynasty was the golden age for the development of China's classical poetry. In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, under the starry sky, excellent works appeared one after another, and Vientiane in Starlight Glimmer won glory. However, among them, there are very few poems that are qualified to be rated as "masterpieces" of the seven wonders of Tang poetry, and Wang Changling's "Bunker I" is one of them, which can be described as the seven wonders of poetry. It is still the moon and border pass in Qin and Han dynasties, and the enemy has fought a protracted war. If Wei Qing, who attacked Longcheng, and Li Guang, the flying general, were alive today, the Huns would not be allowed to go south to spend their horses in Yinshan.

It was Li Panlong, the last leader of the Seven Sons of the Ming Dynasty, who first pushed Wang Changling's "Bunker I" to the position of "Seven Wonders of the Tang Dynasty". "Li Yu chose the seven-character quatrains of the Tang Dynasty, and Wang Longbiao's" Bright Moon in Qin Dynasty, Customs in Han Dynasty "was the first one." Yulin is Li Panlong. In the Ming Dynasty, there was also a dispute about "seven absolutely pressing volumes". Later, Wang Shizhen, another leader of the Seven Schools, agreed with this statement. "Li Yuli said that the quatrains in the Tang Dynasty should be rolled up with' the bright moon in the Qin Dynasty and the customs in the Han Dynasty'. I didn't believe it before, so I concentrated on those extremely ingenious ones. Think about it, if you don't understand, go and get something else. " If you try to find a solution between intentional and unintentional, it will inevitably lead to the first ear of this poem. "Selected Poems of Tang and Song Dynasties pushed this poem higher:" The Moon in Qin Dynasty is the first of Tang poems. "This is not only the first of the seven wonders, but also the first of Tang poetry.

But many critics disagree with this view. In the Ming Dynasty, Hu Zhenheng put forward different opinions: "Wang Shaobo's Four Wonders Palace and in my heart forever are as grand as possible. If the edge is the same as "Bright Moon in Qin Dynasty", the first sentence is very strange, but the stamina is still moderate. It remains to be discussed. " Criticism poems have high intonation and insufficient stamina. Critics who think that "Bunker I" is not enough to be listed as a seven-stop volume focus on the third and fourth sentences, "But make Longcheng fly, don't teach Huma to spend the mountains."

Sun Yun's Tang Poetry in Ming Dynasty pointed out the shortcomings of this poem more specifically. "But the word" don't teach "is both enlightening and straightforward, and it is not high-spirited. When you try your best to respond, you will feel more interesting and shorter. Can you overwhelm 10 thousand poems? " Pointing at three or four sentences is too straightforward, losing the implicit meaning and lacking the aftertaste of chewing. Of course, there are also opponents, such as selected passages from Tang poetry, who oppose this view. "It is not good for the quatrains in the middle and late Tang Dynasty to involve discussion. This poem also involves discussion, but it is not bad." The quatrains are from the beginning to the end and from the end to the beginning, so it is important to be subtle, euphemistic, lingering, not open and outspoken. Therefore, this criticism cannot be said to be unreasonable.
