What does the word "image" mean?

The so-called image is the artistic image created by the objective image through the unique emotional activities of the creative subject.

To put it simply, image is an image with meaning, and it is an objective image used to entrust subjective feelings.

In comparative literature, the noun interpretation of image is: the so-called "image" can be simply said to be the combination of subjective "meaning" and objective "image", that is, the "object image" that blends into the poet's thoughts and feelings and is given a specific image with some special meaning and literary meaning. Image and artistic conception are two important concepts in poetry appreciation, but many students often confuse their meanings. Modern Chinese Dictionary makes no distinction between this and simply interprets "image" as "artistic conception". Correctly defining its meaning and relationship is of positive significance to poetry reading and writing.
