Li Ci has two characteristics. First of all, she wrote ci with her own female identity and special experience, and created an unprecedented female image with distinctive personality, thus expanding the emotional depth and ideological connotation of traditional graceful ci. Second, he is good at extracting vivid and fluent language from written language and daily spoken language, and is good at using painting and description techniques to form a seamless realm.
Artistic feature
Li Qingzhao's ci is divided into two periods.
The previous words
Early ci mainly described the theme of hurting spring resentment and boudoir life, which showed the sentimental personality of female ci writers. For example, in "Like a Dream", the feelings of cherishing spring and loving flowers are described:
"Last night, the rain dispersed suddenly, a deep sleep without residual wine.
Ask the shutter man, Haitang is still there.
You know what? You know what? It should be green, fat, red and thin. "
Another song:
"Always remember XiTing sunset, drunk don't know the way home. After having a good time, we rowed home.
Mistaken into the depths of lotus. How to row a boat out, accidentally, but scared a group of Oulu. "
The lyrics she wrote for Zhao Mingcheng's "Going Out" are even more affectionate and unique. Such as "Drunken Flowers" describes the poetess "Double Ninth Festival" when she feels lonely, so she uses yellow flowers as a metaphor to say:
"The fog is thick and the clouds are sad forever, and the brain disappears the golden beast. The festival is also a double ninth festival, and the jade pillow gauze kitchen is half cold at night.
Dongli drinks until dusk, and faint chrysanthemum fragrance overflows his sleeves. Don't say clear autumn is not a person, the west wind rolls the flag and beads curtain, and the person in the curtain is thinner than that Huang Ju. "
Her conception is novel and her taste is elegant, which is not comparable to that of the first-person narrator of ordinary male writers. Another example is "Plum", which expresses the poet's hope for a letter from her husband:
"Flowers from Shui Piao to water, one kind of lovesickness and two kinds of leisure worries.
There is no way to eliminate this situation. Only under the eyebrows, but in my heart. "
If you are late
Her later poems are full of emotional feelings of "things are wrong", thus expressing her deep attachment to the old country and the past. For example, the first film "Slow Voice and Slow Breath" shows the poet's sense of loss in "looking for" and the sad expression of being alone in the "cold and lonely, miserable and miserable" environment. The next film touches the scene and regrets autumn: "Yellow flowers are piled all over the ground, haggard and damaged. Who can pick it now? " Looking out the window, how can a person be dark? Indus is drizzling, and at dusk, it is falling. This time, what a sad sentence? "The whole word language is concise, the rhythm is fast, and the mood is sad. Another famous poem, Never Meet Happiness, is caused by Yuanxiao, which is a nostalgia for the past "the heyday of Zhongzhou". The next one is:
"Zhongzhou absolute beauty, boudoir leisurely and comfortable, remember to lay particular stress on three to five, shop cui crown.
Twist the golden snow willow, gather the beams to help Chu, and today it is gaunt and frost.
If you are afraid of going out at night, you might as well go. Under the curtain, listening to people's laughter "
The whole poem reveals deep sadness about the changes of the country and sadness about the past. Later, Liu Chenweng, a poet at the end of the Song Dynasty, couldn't help crying for it.
Generally speaking, Li Qingzhao's early works are characterized by beauty and elegance, showing women's keen and delicate feelings, and often using sketch pens in expression techniques, which are true and natural. As for his later works, it can be divided into two achievements: one still retains the keen and slender feeling of women in the early stage, but compared with his earlier works, it looks gloomy and sad in artistic conception, such as the song "Stars in the sky" in Nan Gezi, which can be taken as a representative; The other one breaks through the limitations of women's feelings and feelings, and reaches a very vigorous and detached realm in artistic conception, such as The Pride of the Fisherman.
"Days after the clouds, the Milky Way to turn Qian Fan dance. As if the dream soul belongs to the emperor, Wen Tian asked me where to go. I report the long night and study poetry. There are amazing sentences. Nine, Wan Li winds up, the wind stops, and the boat blows away the three mountains. "
Symbolism is used throughout. In the past, her love and scenery were quite realistic, but this word made a breakthrough. Both image and emotion have entered a very lofty realm, and the combination of image and emotion is just right. This achievement deserves attention.
In her later years, Li Qingzhao had a spirit of "heroic and floating". Although most of these works have been lost, there are still her poems as evidence. "Life is a hero, and death is a ghost." I still miss Xiang Yu and refuse to cross Jiangdong. "After the emperor moved the capital to Lin 'an, he just wanted to live a quiet life and had no ambition to recover his country. This poem by Li Qingzhao can really make those who live quietly ashamed.
