During the Southern Dynasties, the representative writers when parallel prose reached its peak were Xu Ling and Yu Xin.
1. Among them, Yu Xin is a representative writer of parallel verse and parallel prose in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. His work "Ai Jiangnan Fu" is a work that commemorates the motherland and mourns one's life in his later years and after the Western Wei Dynasty. It was praised by Chen Yinke as " The Sad History of Medieval China."
Yu Xin is the most famous poet who came from the south to the north. He suffered the unique bitterness of life in the divided era, but he produced the literary fruit of "the victory of the poor in the north and the south". His literary creation showed the prospect of the integration of northern and southern literary styles, making him a master of the poetry of the Wei, Jin, southern and northern dynasties, and laid the foundation for the development of poetry in the Tang Dynasty. ?
2. Xu Ling’s creations are famous for his palace poems and parallel prose. Xu Ling is the main author of palace-style poems, which are flowing, light and popular. In his later years, he created "Farewell Mao Yongjia". Xu Ling's parallel prose "changes quite a bit from the old style, is sophisticated and sophisticated, and contains many new ideas" (biography of "Chen Shu"), but most of them are practical prose.
Yutai New Chanting Preface is recognized as the representative work of Xu Ling's parallel prose. There are also 7 volumes of "Wenfu", 10 volumes of "New Odes of Yutai", and 6 volumes of "Collection of Poems of the Six Dynasties". At the same time, Xu Ling was also proficient in calligraphy, and his works were still circulated in the Tang Dynasty, such as "Shu Shu Fu" collected in "Fa Shu Yao Lu".
The meaning of learning:
1. Understand yourself. Knowledge is endless and learning has no end. As you learn more, you will realize how ignorant you were before. I don’t know a lot of knowledge, or I haven’t even heard of it.
2. Improve yourself. In the development of modern society, grades are not the only way out, but learning is what we pursue throughout our lives.
3. Broaden your horizons. Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. Learning can add interest to our ordinary life. Even if we cannot travel thousands of miles, we can read thousands of books.
4. Satisfy the desire for knowledge. Everyone has the right to pursue knowledge and the right to choose whether to study. Some people learn about themselves through learning. Some people improve themselves through learning. Some people broaden their horizons through learning.
5. Create more possibilities. The road to learning is difficult, but fulfilling.
