For folk poetry, Mr. Zhu Guangqian has a more appropriate name called "ballad", because at first poetry was not completely divorced from music and dance, it was circulated among the people.
When it comes to skills, we think more of poems written independently by literati. In fact, folk songs, as the embryonic form of poetry, also have certain skills, but they are often ignored because they are often covered by the skills of future generations. In this chapter, Mr. Zhu Guangqian returned to the ocean of poetry and discussed the initial skills.
In short, word games. Harmonic, implicit, or purely narrow word games. I am more interested in "harmony" and "concealment". I know very little about foreign classical poetry and its theory, so I can only quote the Book of Songs to discuss it.
A trip to Fu Bi is often used to appreciate the poems in The Book of Songs, but these three techniques are summarized by later generations and have different understandings. If we try to cross the pre-Qin era of The Book of Songs, people will sing spontaneously in their working life. Have you ever thought about this technique? Think again why they sing like this. Presumably Mr. Zhu Guangqian is also driven by such curiosity!
For example, "Wen Xin Diao Long" is interpreted as "those who make peace and those who are shallow, all smile." Random comes from life, easy to understand, elegant and popular, and it is precisely because the game is ugly that it will win joy. If you are not harmonious with the great good, you will not respect it; If you are not harmonious with great evils, there will be great disasters. Just "jokes" about the ugliness and shortcomings that are irrelevant.
"Rats have skins, people have no instrument! What is it that people die without instruments? " (The Book of Songs? Hurricane? People are shameless, shameless, and humor is bitter irony and soft knife.
"Twinkle, I millet without food! At the age of three, I was willing to care. " (The Book of Songs? Feng Wei? Storytelling is the most bitter reconciliation of people's difficulties and embarrassment, and it is a tearful smile.
"The chicken is crowing, and it is full." "The bandit chicken is singing, the sound of flies."
"The East is bright and North Korea is prosperous." "The east is bright, and the Mitsudeki of the moon is gone." (The Book of Songs? Qi Feng? Cock crow) Sip the little sweetness of life under the pretext of "staying in bed".
As Mr. Zhu Guangqian said, "The poet's ability lies in harmony, so he can see beauty in ugliness, be comforted in frustration and be happy in sadness. Harmony is a laxative used by human beings to ease tensions and ease sadness and difficulties. "
Poets can be harmonious because they have a pair of eyes that are good at observing life and an infatuation that loves life. There is a kind of intelligence. This kind of humor may be the predecessor of "contrast" in skill, which doubles its effect.
Hidden as a picture of a dragon, "hidden in the clouds, occasionally seeing dragon claws", poetry only shows dragon claws, and emotions are hidden in it. Imaginable, impossible and hidden are all reasonable and unexpected surprises.
The most common and irrelevant scenery hides the mystery of "Xing".
"Hands like soft ti, skin like coagulate fat. Collars are like salamanders, and teeth are like rhinoceroses. A cicada's head is a moth eyebrow, smiling and looking forward to it. " Detailed description is also the embodiment of concealment.
Inspired by Mr. Zhu Guangqian, "China people seem to pay special attention to the subtle relationship and similarity of natural things and are particularly interested in their originality." I slowly found that "concealment" is the initial intention of metaphor, personification and exaggeration in poetry.
Finally, I wonder why Mr. Zhu Guangqian called it a "word game". He should show his inner ingenuity, be integrated with singing and dancing, be tolerant and be easy to convey. From Mr. Zhu Guangqian's words, I found the answer:-It would be too "exciting" to write off the elements of word games in poetry.
"Qiao" makes beauty. "Anything that can really cause aesthetic experience has some artistic value".
