Xie Lingyun's poems were influenced by the poems of wandering immortals, but he began to describe natural landscapes instead of writing about wandering immortals and metaphysical words. Yan Yanzhi, a good friend, once asked Bao Zhao about the advantages and disadvantages of himself and Xie Lingyun (the three of them are collectively called "Yuanjia Sanjie") and said,' Xie Chu is as lovely as a lotus. ....
Many of Xie Lingyun's landscape poems are the natural scenery of Yongjia, Huiji and Lipeng Lake that he wrote after he became the magistrate of Yongjia. The language is neat and concise, and the realm is fresh and natural, just like a vivid picture. As it is: Changchun grass in the pond and willow in the garden become songbirds? Like nature, it has won the imitation of future generations.
However, some people think that Xie Lingyun's poems are mainly about description and description, which is not as good as Tao Yuanming's scenes and scenes.
Second, the end of metaphysical discourse is mostly
Xie Lingyun's landscape poems still cannot be completely separated from the shadow of metaphysical poems. Poetry is mostly about traveling first, hearing and seeing, and finally talking about metaphysics or mourning, often with the tail of metaphysics. Such as "Climbing Yongjia Castle Peak Poetry":
Gently wrap the cereal bar. Go to the secluded room at night. The source diameter turns far. The distance from land is not over. Cold posture. Moisten the frost completely. Water has been fascinated many times. Lin Jiong's rocks are too dense. As soon as possible, it is called the first month in the west. Gu Dong is suspected of sunset. Practice at night and get dizzy in the morning. I know all about it. It doesn't matter whether it's expensive or not. Two beauties, Zhen Ji. You often walk frankly. Nobleness is invincible. What's the ending of ah? Send a hug silently. Tian Ru has already handed it in. Since then, it has naturally come out.
Second, there are many five-character poems.
Xie Lingyun's poems include four-character poems, five-character poems and seven-character poems, among which seven-character poems are the least. Seven-character poems were not the mainstream at that time, and Bao Zhao wrote the most seven-character poems. Most of Xie Lingyun's four-character poems are five-character poems, and all his masterpieces are five-character poems. For example, Climbing the Pool to the Upstairs, Climbing the Shigu Mountain Poem and Bai Shiyan's Poem of Going to the Field.
Climb into the pool and go upstairs:
Hong Fei is potential and charming, which sounds far away. Clouds are ashamed of Yunfu, and rivers are deep.
It is difficult to enter morality and wisdom, but it is difficult to return to the field. Poor sea, lying empty forest. I was lying on the pillow, ignorant of the season and climate, and I took a temporary peek. Listen to the waves with your ears open, and look at the place with your eyes open. At the beginning of the scene, the wind direction changed, and the new sun became old and cloudy. Spring grass grows in the pond and garden willows become songbirds. Qiqi hurts the song and feels the sound of Chu. It is easier to live forever than to live alone. Holding exercises is not unique to ancient times, and there is no sign of boredom today.
Third, I like confrontation.
Xie Lingyun likes antithesis very much, because the law of phonology has not been discovered at that time, so most of his antithesis is uneven, but the part of speech and sentence structure are relatively uniform. You can have a look if you are interested. Xie Lingyun's five-character poems almost hate that every sentence can be antithetical. Let's take a look at these poems about climbing Yongjia Green Mountain and climbing the water pool upstairs. Here's another example:
You nanting
In the evening, the sky is clear in Wan Li, and the clouds go to the west. The dense forest is bright, and the far peak is hidden. After a long sleep, the hotel overlooks the suburbs. Eupatorium adenophorum was gradually swept away, and hibiscus started late. I am not tired of youth, I have seen Zhu Ming move. Feeling sad, the stars are gray. The poison bait stops, and the decline is sudden. When you die, wait for autumn water and rest on the old cliff of the scenic weir. Who am I interested in and who is smart? Only feast on conscience.
More than four or eight sentences.
Xie Lingyun's poems are mostly more than eight sentences, which is also the characteristics of the Song Dynasty in the Jin Dynasty. Decades later, Xie Tiao wrote many eight-character poems, which laid the foundation for the formation of five-character poems. In addition to long poems, Xie Lingyun has several quatrains:
Give and answer in dongyangxi
Pity whose wife. Wash your feet while flowing. The bright moon is among the clouds. It's too far.
Five words and four sentences, two or four sentences into rhyme.
Pity sb. Edge flow of ordinary ge. But if you ask for love. The moon fell in the clouds.
Second, the four sentences are placed in rhyme, and attention is paid to the fact that Luo and Ge are both in sound: rhyme 20.
