(1) The "carving" in Xie Lingyun's landscape poems is a meticulous imitation of nature. In the process of imitation, Xie Lingyun added his own subjective color, which made the landscape present a unique face that was divorced from reality but different from reality.
(2) The skill of "carving" in Xie Lingyun's landscape poems is not only reflected in the detailed description of subtle scenery, but also in the structural organization of various intentions. The two are often combined to express the different and changeable postures of landscapes.
Nature ("Nature" embodied in Xie Shi's poems has double meanings);
(1) On the one hand, Xie Lingyun's landscape poems truly present natural scenery, which is inseparable from the poet's "carving" power.
(2) On the other hand, Xie Lingyun also has sentences that seem to be blurted out, which are true and natural, such as "Spring grass grows in the pond and garden willows turn into songbirds".
(3) From the perspective of the development of poetry, Xie Shi is "natural", which is reflected in the words he used to describe the scenery, on the other hand, the scenery he described is also realistic, which is different from Dr. Han's exaggerated ornamentation and metaphysical poetry's conceptual scenery writing style. And "The Carving" mainly focuses on Xie Lingyun's detailed description of specific scenery.
2. Exquisite and colorful style. The most impressive things in Xie Lingyun's poems are dense images, a large number of antithetical sentences and profound and elegant language, thus forming a rich and exquisite style as a whole.
Xie Lingyun used to substitute flowers for trees, including what he saw in his poems, to present the scenery in a panoramic way, thus forming his rich characteristics.
3. Vivid and delicate scenery description. Although Xie Lingyun's poems have a sense of complexity as a whole, they often give people a vivid and delicate feeling when describing natural beauty.
In the description of scenery, his poems mainly show the pursuit of melody.
For the expression of colors, such as "Green Fields and High Rock White Clouds in the Spring Festival Evening" in Into Li Peng Lake, the author did not paint all kinds of colors, but only used green fields as the background and white clouds as embellishments, which grasped the characteristics of spring full of sunshine and vitality and formed a simple and soft picture. For the description of sound, such as "sleeping on Shimen rock" and "birds know the night habitat and trees know the wind", there is stillness in the movement, and it is late at night, and the sound of birds and leaves is particularly clear.
This description of lust reflects a new trend of poetry creation and has a great influence on the creation of later poets. In this respect, Xie Lingyun can be said to be the pioneer of poetry creation in the new era.
4. Stylistic features of the building. As far as the overall structure is concerned, Xie Lingyun's poems tend to travel first, then write stories, and finally talk about metaphysics, dragging a metaphysical tail.
This narrative-description-reasoning structural model makes Xie Shi present a stylized feature. As for the formation of this stylized structure, it can be said that it is related to the limitations of Xie Lingyun's aesthetic consciousness of mountains and rivers.
Xie Lingyun will never forget his regime. When he was frustrated politically and then traveled around, he just used the scenery as a sensory stimulus to cover up his passion for power.
5. Pay attention to lyric expression. On the whole, it has gone through the process of emphasizing "reason" and "everything is standard, like the" morality theory "in the metaphysical era.
Xie Lingyun's landscape poems are far from the spirit of Jian 'an literature, and return to the tradition of expressing feelings and aspirations with his own creative achievements. In most of his landscape poems, the poet's lyrical style is also reflected.
The emotions in his poems are mainly manifested in the following aspects:
As an ideal frustrated person, Xie Lingyun poured out his grief and indignation of "being out of touch with the world" in his poems.
As a landscape tourist, Xie Lingyun showed his love for nature in his poems.
As a lonely traveler, Xie Lingyun expressed his yearning for his friends in his poems.
As a thinker seeking Tao, Xie Lingyun expressed his joy after realizing Tao in his poems.
