Lin Huiyin is one of the designers of the national emblem of the Republic of China. She is the wife of architect Liang Sicheng. She is a representative of talented women in modern China for a century. The following is an appreciation of the original text of Lin Huiyin's "Deep Smile" that I have compiled for everyone. Welcome to refer to it~
Deep Smile
Who smiles so sweetly and deeply?
Round like that? Strings of pearls,
Small and large, shining brightly, bursting out innocence!
Floating at the bottom of the clear spring, flowing to the surface of the water,
Brilliant,
Scattered!
Who smiles so well that a flower blooms?
It is so light that it does not startle anyone.
The fine fragrance inadvertently, as the wind passes by,
blows on the short wall, and the silk threads hang in front of the setting sun,
hanging,
< p> Nostalgic.Who smiles like these hundred-story towers,
Letting unknown birds circle around? Who is it?
Who smiles like these thousands of wind chimes? Turn,
From the eaves of each layer of glazed glass,
Shake up,
The sky?
Appreciation:
Like sweet spring water, like a leisurely lotus, filled with a child-like innocent smile in the natural ethereal world, surrounded by the purity and splendor of the beauty of life; the artistic conception of poetry, the artistic conception of people, the artistic conception of love, the artistic conception of life Artistic conception...A moment of laughter creates infinite beauty. Lin Huiyin used women's unique tenderness, unique perspective and delicate thoughts to write the short poem "Deep Smile", demonstrating the endless charm of modern poetry.
"Deep Smile" is a six-line poem. The whole poem starts with the question "Who is...", goes deeper and deeper, repeated over and over again, and is full of the beauty of loops. The four questions only form three sections, and there are changes in the arrangement. Each stanza has six lines. The first four sentences are long sentences, ranging from 8 to 11 words, and are slightly uneven in neatness; the last two sentences are short sentences, both of 2 words, concise and concise. In each section, the poems are arranged from long to short, forming an inverted pyramid shape, which is exquisite and clear, complementing the soft content. The level and oblique lines are harmonious, the tone is harmonious, the rhymes "San", "Lian" and "天" rhyme with an, it is light and agile, and full of musical melody.
The image of poetry is pure and elegant. The "clear spring" in the first stanza gushes out of the water, shining like a string of pearls, brilliant and scattered; the "flowers" in the second stanza are light and fragrant, blowing in the wind, exuding the light of life; the last stanza is "Flowers". It combines "hundred-story ancient towers" and "thousands of rotating wind chimes" to expand infinitely into space. These images are all classic images in Chinese classical poetry. They are fresh and bright, simple and lively, and full of sound and color, making the poems full of classical connotations.
"Deep Smile" highly demonstrates this pure beauty of human nature. On the first level, the smile is sweet, deep, round and innocent; on the second level, the smile is light and unintentional; on the third level, the smile is crisp and sweet, reaching up to the sky. The poet sings softly, turning the invisible into the tangible, abstract into the concrete, and letting laughter spread to every corner of the world. This is a kind of softness, a kind of light but can touch people's deep feelings. Pure smiles and pure artistic conception, progressing layer by layer, embody the harmony of life.
Fragments of Lin Huiyin’s emotional story:
When talking about Lin Huiyin, what people are more likely to think of is her love affair. Lin Huiyin had three famous men who loved her in her life: Xu Zhimo, Liang Sicheng, and Jin Yuelin. It can be said that the three men are all heroes among men. No matter who she chooses, she will live a happy life. But Lin finally chose Liang Sicheng ruthlessly, for unknown reasons.
Perhaps the Liang family’s name was too loud at that time, and it was definitely a temptation and pressure for a woman. Mr. Liang Qichao also valued Lin Huiyin very much, otherwise he would not have scolded his favorite protégé for a woman. How could he let others take away the daughter-in-law he valued? In fact, in this emotional dispute over Lin Huiyin, it was obvious that It was Xu Zhimo who had the upper hand. Xu Yinlin was already divorced, but he still lost to Liang Sicheng in the end. At this point, Liang Qichao must have played a big role.
But the one who loves Lin Huiyin the most is Jin Yuelin. Since he met this woman, Jin Yuelin has never left Lin Huiyin in his life.
Both Lin Huiyin and Liang Sicheng studied in the United States. In addition to their family background, they have profound attainments in Chinese and Western cultures and have extensive contacts in the intellectual community. There are salon gatherings at home almost every week. Jin Yuelin, however, was alone and carefree, and was always a frequent visitor to the Liang family salon. They have the same cultural background, like-minded interests, and deep friendship. They have lived next to each other for a long time, often in separate houses. Occasionally he was not in the same place, such as in Kunming and Chongqing during the Anti-Japanese War. Whenever Jin Yuelin had a vacation, he always went to live in the Liang family. Jin Yuelin admired Lin Huiyin's character and talent very much and took great care of him; Lin Huiyin also admired and loved him very much, and the spiritual communication between them was extraordinary. After reading Liang Sicheng's continuation of Mr. Lin Zhu's article, I gained a more detailed understanding. According to her, Lin Huiyin once told Liang Sicheng with a mournful face that she was extremely distressed because she fell in love with two people at the same time and didn't know what to do. Lin Huiyin made no secret of Liang Sicheng and was as frank as a little sister asking her elder brother for advice.
Liang Sicheng was in extreme pain because of his natural conflict. He thought hard all night and compared the advantages of Jin Yuelin over himself. He finally told his wife: She is free. If she chooses Jin Yuelin, I wish them happiness forever. Lin Huiyin told Jin Yuelin everything exactly. Jin Yuelin's answer was so frank and candid that it would surprise even a mortal: "It seems that Sicheng really loves you. I can't hurt someone who truly loves you. I should quit." Jin Yuelin's true love for Lin Huiyin was hidden throughout his life. Many years after Lin Huiyin's death, one day Jin Yuelin solemnly invited some close friends to a banquet at a Beijing hotel, leaving everyone puzzled. Before the banquet started, he announced: "Today is Huiyin's birthday!" Everyone in the audience sighed.
For her sake, he never married, because in his heart, no one in the world could replace her.
Lin Huiyin and Xu Zhimo
In 1921, 16-year-old Lin Huiyin traveled to Europe. While in England, he met Xu Zhimo, who was studying in the UK at the time. At that time, Xu Zhimo was already the father of a two-year-old child. Lin Huiyin was attracted by Xu Zhimo's profound knowledge, elegant conversation and handsome appearance. Xu Zhimo was also attracted by Lin Huiyin's outstanding talent and beauty. He spoke highly of her and wrote many love poems for Lin Huiyin. It was mentioned in the later "Preface to the Collection of Tigers" (1931) that he had "nothing to do with poetry at all" before the age of twenty-four. It was his encounter with Lin Huiyin that inspired his new poetry creation. In March of the same year, he filed for divorce from his first wife Zhang Youyi.
After that, they organized Crescent Society activities together, acted together, and often exchanged letters. During Tagore's visit to China in 1924, Xu Zhimo and Lin Huiyin both served as translators. Later, Xu Zhimo accompanied Tagore to Japan, and Lin Huiyin and Liang Sicheng went to the University of Pennsylvania. When Xu Zhimo and Lin Huiyin met again, it was already four years later. During this period, Lin Huiyin was married to Liang Sicheng. On November 19, 1931, Xu Zhimo, who was preparing to attend Lin Huiyin's lecture, was killed in a plane crash.
Xu Zhimo also had a great influence on Lin Huiyin. He is the guide on Lin Huiyin’s literary path. Many years later, Lin Huiyin also said to his children: "What Xu Zhimo loved at first was not the real me, but the Lin Huiyin he imagined with the romantic emotions of a poet. In fact, I am not that kind of person."
Lin Huiyin and Jin Yuelin
The Liang family lived in a courtyard in Zongbu Hutong, Dongcheng, Beijing, and Jin Yuelin lived in the backyard of Lin Huiyin's house; after Lin Huiyin moved to No. 8 Xinlinyuan, Jin Yuelin lived across the street. No. 9, Xinlinyuan; after moving to Shengyinyuan, they still live next to each other. There was no need to announce his arrival. He sat down on the sofa by himself, shook his head and looked into the distance, played with his sunglasses, drank tea and read a book. Lin Huiyin did not necessarily come out to meet him. Sometimes when he came out, he would hold a foreign book and read to Lin Huiyin.
Lin Huiyin and Liang Sicheng have salon gatherings at their home almost every week, and Jin Yuelin has always been a frequent visitor to the Liang family salon. They have the same cultural background, like-minded interests, and deep friendship. They have been living next to each other for a long time. Even when Liang Sicheng and Lin Huiyin had a quarrel, they went to Jin Yuelin for arbitration.
In the late 1950s, Lin Huiyin passed away. At the memorial service, he wrote the famous elegiac couplet for her, "A poetic Qianxun Waterfall, an April day in the world forever."
Lin Huiyin and Xiao Qian
In November 1933, Xiao Qian published the short story "Silkworms" in "Ta Kung Pao", which attracted Lin Huiyin's attention. She invited Xiao Qian to visit her home through Shen Congwen, editor-in-chief of the supplement of "Ta Kung Pao". Because of their writing, Xiao Qian and Lin Huiyin gradually became familiar with each other and became frequent visitors.
Since July 1935, Xiao Qian has served as the editor of the literary supplement of "Ta Kung Pao". During this period, Lin Huiyin has been his "cheerleader". Every month Xiao Qian would go to Peiping and hold a tea party at Laijin Yuxuan. Lin Huiyin would arrive almost every time, and there would always be a grand discussion during the dinner. In 1936, Xiao Qian was transferred to Shanghai and edited the literary supplement of Ta Kung Pao in Shanghai and Tianjin at the same time. In order to enliven the page, he constantly opened various "columns". Lin Huiyin enthusiastically supported Xiao Qian's attempts and actively participated in them. In the summer of 1938, Xiao Qian went to Hong Kong to continue editing the literary supplement of "Ta Kung Pao". Lin Huiyin, who stayed in the mainland, still gave him guidance and support.
In September 1953, the Second National Literary Congress was held in Beijing. At the venue, Lin Huiyin waved to Xiao Qian from afar. Xiao Qian sat next to her, shook her hand, and called: "Miss." Lin Huiyin said: "Oh, Miss, you are so old." Xiao Qian said: "If you are not old in spirit, you will never be. Will grow old." Then the two started talking about words and works. This was the last time the two met.
In April 1955, Lin Huiyin died of illness. After hearing the sad news, Xiao Qian immediately sent a letter of condolences to Liang Sicheng. In December 1998, Xiao Qian was seriously ill and was admitted to Beijing Hospital. Baihua Literature and Art Publishing House published "Collected Works of Lin Huiyin", and Xiao Qian was invited to write a preface to the collection. He dictated it and others compiled it. After Xiao Qian read it carefully, he made slight changes, and finally signed his name neatly at the end of the article. This preface became Xiao Qian's masterpiece in literary circles.
