The Book of Songs? The woman in Meng is a typical image of China's abandoned wife, which can be said to be the "source" of his abandoned wife poems. Her image is the template of standard women required by feudal society: practical, hardworking, caring for the family and obeying her husband. When she was a girl, she was naive and believed in love. "Take the wall, in order to hope to close. I didn't see the resumption of customs, so I cried. I am full of laughter when I see the resumption of GATT. " The lover's every move touches her heartstrings, and her tears and smiles are only related to that man. For a long time in the future, she still remembers their "total angle banquet, laughing and laughing" when they were teenagers. The man coaxed the heroine into being poor at home and willing to work hard for him without a rich bride price. At the time of "mulberry leaves flourish first and then fall", the man and she made a vow to grow old together, but when "mulberry leaves fall first and their yellow leaves fall", it just became empty talk. Finally, the man told her that "everything he said was done, as for violence", and finally it became "a brother doesn't know, but still laughs". However, we can't merge her into those abandoned wives who only feel sorry for themselves for their tragic past. She can "calm down and think, bow her head and mourn for herself", reflect on her own experience, and finally bravely say, "Make an oath without thinking." On the contrary, I don't think about it, I'm already embarrassed! "This is the biggest accusation against this ungrateful person. Her resistance was to leave him, and they were even from then on. However, her spiritual awakening is limited. " Women are unhappy, but scholars try their best. Scholars are also vain, and virtue is two or three. "She thinks she is not at fault and does her duty to the whole family. A man should be gentle and considerate to himself, which shows that there is a "principle of reciprocity" in her consciousness. But what she doesn't realize is that the principle of reciprocity can only be realized on the basis of equality between the two sides. In traditional society, women have a low position in the family, and actually live a life similar to "half wife and half slave". She blamed all the responsibilities on the man and neglected her subjective initiative. There is no doubt that this is a gentle, kind, enterprising and independent woman. She is not only patient, but willing to be an accessory to her husband and be beaten and scolded. The emergence of her thoughts is also related to the relatively free communication between men and women, relatively few moral constraints and the fact that women have a certain space to think about their own destiny. But judging from the way and attitude of her resistance, she basically did not touch the interests of men, nor did she challenge the authority of men. Her self-resistance has only attitude, no action and no social influence. Her resistance is also a compromise to some extent, which indirectly acknowledges the rationality of this unreasonable phenomenon.
"Dream" is the first poem about abandoning a wife in the history of China literature. The heroine in the poem (that is, the abandoned wife) describes the whole process from love, marriage, abuse and abandonment. Sad and angry, determined. The heroine in the poem is a woman obsessed with love and marriage. In the pursuit of "bandits come to sell silk, I come for help", she "sent her son to get involved" Although "there is no good media", she comforted her and agreed that "autumn will last for some time". The heroine broke through the shackles of "parents' orders and matchmakers' words" and showed her free pursuit of love, which was commendable at that time.
"I want the car, I bribe you to move." Although Meng didn't bring any dowry when she got married, she still took it to the wedding car. This shows that she is not too poor. She is still poor and leads a hard life of self-protection after marriage. She works hard. "As a three-year-old wife, she is very tired, unable to sleep at night and restless." In order to start a family business and create happiness, she goes to bed early and gets up early every day, goes out early and comes home late to do housework, and never complains. She is faithful, and she still loves her husband unswervingly after being abused by him (but the woman is not happy). She is very strong. After being abandoned, she is calm and rational, and can still "think quietly". She is more determined. After seeing the ugly behavior of Mongols clearly, her attitude towards the tragic ending is "I don't think about it, but I don't care!" " , resolutely and protect themselves. At this point, she has changed from a pure, affectionate, kind and beautiful young woman to a hard-working and hard-working wife, and then to a strong, resolute and decisive abandonment. Show a woman's hardworking, kind, strong, brave and rebellious spirit. Her image is liked and appreciated. She dares to love and hate, and the pursuit of free and equal love is also worthy of praise. Moreover, in that era when women's status was low, in a society with strong patriarchal ideology, her resistance was greater and more typical.
A variety of artistic expressions are used in Meng, which makes the article diverse in form, rich in content and profound in theme. During this period, the image of hard-working, kind, resolute, brave and rebellious abandoned wife was vividly portrayed.
