It can be said that 300 Tang Poems is the most widely circulated, most popular and enduring anthology of Tang poems in the past two hundred years. As a masterpiece of Tang poetry, it has the following distinctive features:
First, the selected poems are comprehensive. Five-character ancient poems, metrical poems, quatrains and seven-character ancient poems, metrical poems, quatrains and Yuefu all selected the most representative masterpieces in different categories.
Second, there are many authors who choose poems. There are not only "great men" like Li Bai, Du Fu, Wang Wei, Bai Juyi, Du Mu, Liu Zongyuan, Liu Yuxi and Li Shangyin, but also many "small families" like princes, monks, singers and even nobody.
Thirdly, the selected poems are catchy and easy to recite. For example, You Ziyin (Meng Jiao), Cao (Bai Juyi), (Meng Haoran), (Li Bai), (Liu Zongyuan) and so on. These poems have beautiful artistic conception and harmonious intonation. From the dying old man to the yellow-haired child, you can recite several such eternal songs with your mouth open.
Fourth, the selection of poems is extensive and eclectic. There are descriptions of natural scenery, such as Du Fu's "Looking at Yue"; There are also displays of rural customs, such as Meng Haoran's Passing the Old Village. Both reveal the profound disasters brought by the war to the people, such as Du Fu's "Military Vehicle Shop"; There are also expressions of the poet's farewell to his friends, such as Li Bai's Farewell to Meng Haoran on the way to Yangzhou. There is a description of the complex mood when returning home, and how to "Homecoming Book"; There are also tragedies that describe the love of kings, such as Bai Juyi's Song of Eternal Sorrow ... This book has everything from street customs to frontier scenery, from trivial matters of life to national hatred and family worries, romanticism and realism.
Every poem was written by a different poet. It is like a lamp on the sea, coal in the snow, always helping us and warming us. It is like a teacher, teaching and inspiring us all the time, whether in study or at work. Every poem is so intriguing, and every poem is so profound. I picked up Three Hundred Tang Poems and read it carefully again. I find that every poem is a fable, which tells me a profound truth. Appreciating ancient poems in reading can help a lost person find a bright road and help a wandering soul find the direction of life again.
In a word, I think the book "Three Hundred Tang Poems" will leave the essence of Tang poetry in the hearts of China people from generation to generation forever. We are very grateful to the editor of this book for providing us with good spiritual food. As a China person, let's "recite 300 Tang poems, even if we can't write them"!
2. Among all the traditional literature in China, I have a special liking for Tang poetry and Song poetry. I remember when I was young, I was trapped in Yunnan, with depressed thoughts and hard life. But when I came back from work, no matter how tired I was, no matter how others drank and chatted, I held a dim kerosene lamp and "stole" a copy of Three Hundred Tang Poems from my father's bookcase when I left, and collected all the things at that time. Although I didn't understand the meaning of those poems and songs at that time, I was so focused every time I read them. How many lonely nights and hardships I spent with Tang poetry and Song poetry. Up to now, I still have the book "Three Hundred Tang Poems" which is integrated into my youthful blood. After returning to the city, with the increase of age and reading, especially after college, I realized that the poems of Tang and Song Dynasties I had read before were just a drop in the ocean. As a result, they frantically bought related books, such as Tang Poetry Appreciation Dictionary, Song Poetry Appreciation Dictionary and Famous Sentences Appreciation Dictionary, and tried their best to snap them up. At that time, I didn't have much money in my pocket, but I often visited Huyu Bookstore, a small bookstore opened in the alley of Minsheng Road. To this day, I still don't change my obsession and persistence with Tang poetry and Song poetry. Every night, I take a book from the bedside table and read it in a low voice. It feels catchy and fragrant.
I often imagine what kind of artistic conception it would be if the moon shone in the Tang Dynasty and it rained in the Song Dynasty!
Thanks to Tang poetry and Song poetry, thanks to the immortal art and spirit of their ancient masters, which has a long history for thousands of years. Walking into Tang poetry and Song poetry is actually walking into a magical and charming kingdom. This is a season when the flowers of human spirit are in full bloom. Our host stood up from the thin page and walked up to us along the lines, dressed in ancient costumes, with long hair fluttering and full of charm: simple and vigorous Zi Ang, clear and vigorous Wang Zhihuan, Meng Haoran, free and unrestrained Li Bai, depressed Du Fu, young and gorgeous Bai Juyi, strange and lively Li He, exquisite and gorgeous text, and sad and soft Li Yu.
"There are people in Bai Yunsheng who are inclined in the cold mountain stone path." In a trance, I also became an elegant ancient Confucian scholar, and the light blue happy towel on my head was blown by the breeze. I got into an old carriage and squeaked away. There are red maple leaves on both sides of the post road, which makes my pair red. How can I not get off and have a look? "Little father see Yu Di before, silver lamp is too enchanting. Who can hate getting drunk in a song? After singing, the wine has not disappeared. " It's late at night, and the night watchman is walking farther and farther in the narrow street, and the wine is fragrant above the red building. The flute is a delicate Yu Di, the lamp is a luxurious silver lamp, and the music flows around. ...
I love Tang poetry and Song poetry alone, the quaint poetic feelings they show, and the unruly soul alone. You can travel hand in hand with it and have tea with it. Whether it's "August in Hutian" in Blowing the Petals of Ten Thousand Pears, or Acropolis Inn in "Green Willow in Guest House", it's unforgettable to laugh, cry, sing, sigh, wander silently or talk endlessly at the Lantern Festival or at the dusk of "Fragrant Fragrance".
I have read a sentence by Yan Shu before: "I can't help but feel the feeling of meeting Yan back", but my mind is blank. Today, when people reach middle age, after experiencing some things, they read it again and gradually realize some meanings. I thought that when Yan Shu was walking on the fragrant path in a small garden and writing this word through old wine, how could I know that I could still read it after 1000 years? How can we know what kind of mood we are in to taste and chew? I think this is the so-called vicissitudes, this is the so-called history, and this is the so-called fate.
I also think that this sense of vicissitudes is not based on the pessimistic tone of "doing nothing in life" On the contrary, it is people's self-awareness of life. It taught me to cherish life more, understand life and love life.
With the rapid development of modern society, many things are constantly being abandoned. The fanatical pursuit of material makes the mind poorer and poorer. Facing today's life, our hearts are aching. We are suffering from: noise, pollution, population explosion, corruption, ecological imbalance ... people have become a machine with full horsepower, spinning endlessly in a complicated world. ...
Finally, when you find leisure, recite Tang poems and read Song lyrics, transcend reality in the moonlight and enter a simple and beautiful ideal world, so that your soul can find a temporary apartment. Sometimes, how much we yearn for that kind of life: living in seclusion in a pastoral area where "spring pigeons are singing on the top and apricot flowers are white at the edge of the village", sipping spring tea in the whisper of swallows to the moon, but feeling as pale as flowers and forgetting all the insults. Or in a "deep" courtyard, green Ruyan Liu, the gate is foggy, with a curtain of dreams and half-length leisure worries, think about those romantic things ... As Tang poetry and Song poetry permeated with humanistic spirit, they have influenced China people from generation to generation, and will surely make more modern China people sing. She must also let us cast a nostalgic glance on the road of life.
Read Tang poetry and Song poetry with your eyes, your heart and your life.
Its meaning, but every time I read it, I am so focused. How many lonely nights and hardships I spent with Tang poetry and Song poetry.
