The style of the former words is delicate and euphemistic, reflecting the feelings of the boudoir, singing away from sorrow and not hating, and full of joy and romance in early life. In the later period, the style of ci poetry was gloomy and sad, showing the bitterness of life experience, loneliness and boredom of mood, low emotional appeal and moving.
The reasons for the changes of ci style in the early and late stages
(A) social background factors
Although Li Qingzhao was appraised as a "Southern Song Poet" in the history of literature, she was indeed born and grew up in the Northern Song Dynasty, and the social and historical situation in the Northern Song Dynasty had an important influence on her creation. The financial revenue of the Song Dynasty was staggering, with the highest annual financial revenue reaching1.60 billion, far greater than that of any other feudal dynasty.
The bustling scenes on the banks of the Bianliang and Bianhe rivers, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, depicted in the Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival by Zhang Zeduan, are enough to show the prosperity of the country and people at that time. Under the illumination of this superior social background, Li Qingzhao's ci is naturally positive, lively and lively. Take "Like a Dream" as an example: "If you are happy, you will return to the boat at night and go astray into the depths of the lotus. Fight for the ferry, fight for the ferry, and open a beach of gulls and herons. "
In this poem, the image of a lively and frank heroine who loves life shows her cheerful, pure, affectionate and sentimental character in detail. In this peaceful atmosphere where the country is rich and the people are safe, Li Qingzhao's early ci works are naturally positive, even if euphemistic and slightly sad, they also reveal a faint sense of joy.
family factors
Li Qingzhao was born in a famous family, and her family environment had a very positive influence on her. His father Li, a scholar, was a famous writer at that time. It can be said that Li Qingzhao, who was born in a scholarly family, lacks the inherent moral and ethical constraints of many women and has a generous and elegant temperament.
The poems of this period mainly describe the girl's boudoir life, revealing her love for nature and longing for love life, lively and fresh, reflecting a leisurely and elegant state of mind. Take "Eye-catching Lips" as an example: "The dew is thick and the flowers are thin, and the sweat is light and the clothes are thorough. Seeing someone coming, socks and gold hairpin slipped away and left with shame. Looking back at the door, Wen Qingmei. "
