What feelings does Su Shi's ci mainly express?

Su Shi is the leader of the literary world in the Northern Song Dynasty, and also the founder of the unrestrained school of Song Ci. Su Shi's ci has a special position in the history of ci. In traditional literary theory, the understanding of Su Shi's ci style is often evaluated by "boldness", which is often mentioned in the textbooks we have studied before. Su Ci's style is exquisite, sometimes bold and unconstrained, sometimes elegant and euphemistic, sometimes elegant and broad-minded, and its style is complex. Although he is regarded as the representative of the bold and unconstrained ci, the number of gentle and affectionate euphemisms in his ci is not less than that of impassioned and bold ci. Although the style of graceful words in Su Ci has been discussed by predecessors, it is too one-sided. This paper mainly discusses several representative graceful and restrained words of Su Shi from several aspects.

The chant for things is based on a specific thing in nature or social life. Through the singing of specific things, the poet's specific feelings are expressed. Expressing emotion with objects is the tradition of China's classical poetry. With the development of Ci, chanting things was gradually incorporated into the creation of Ci by some literati. The characteristics of Su Shi's poems about objects in the past are that the poems about objects are in a state of separation from the creative subject, and the poems about objects are only poems about objects, without integrating the author's emotions and spirit into the poems about objects, thus achieving a state of blending things with me. Poetry about objects is one of the main components of Su Shi's graceful words. Although there are not many works of eulogizing things in Su Shi's graceful words, they have reached the extreme of high integration of eulogizing things and meaning.
