The Book of Songs is China's first collection of poems, which contains 305 poems from the early Western Zhou Dynasty to the mid-Spring and Autumn Period, reflecting the human life and social outlook at that time. Among them, the works with the theme of love and marriage account for a large proportion, and most of these works explain the theme with vivid female images. They are noble, simple, enchanting or elegant, each with its own characteristics. Generally speaking, it can be divided into the following categories: (1) bold, frank and provocative female images; (2) Innocent, lively and enthusiastic female images; (3) Implicit, deep and gentle female images; (4) Happy, happy and successful female images; (5) Female images of timidity, hesitation and pain; (6) brave, infatuated and loyal female images. Let me briefly comment on these aspects first.
Bold, frank and provocative female images
"Plum pulling, actually seven xi! Please me, scholar, please be lucky! There are plums, actually three! Beg me to learn, I will do it today! There are plums and a basket! Beg me, civilian Call it! " The girl in "Zhao Nan Zhuomeiyou" longs for love, so she boldly shows her love and makes no secret of her desire for love: "Plums fall to the ground one after another, and the trees are full of fruits. If you want to marry my boy, take advantage of the auspicious moment. Plums fell to the ground, and there were not many fruits on the tree. If you want to marry my boy, seize the opportunity now. " This kind of confession is simple, straightforward and unpretentious, which vividly shows the innocence, boldness, simplicity, romance and unruly of these women, without any trace of ethical constraints. Similarly, the woman in "Zheng Shang" is not as reserved and shy as a girl, but simply shouts to the lover across the river, "Think of me, ten thousand dresses are involved in paint. If you don't miss me, there is no one else. The madness of the madman is also. " Sharp-edged, aggressive, provocative, open-minded, straightforward but not lacking in calculation. Obviously, I waited anxiously by the river, but instead of urging him directly, I dared him to tease him cheerfully. This woman's generosity and ferocity can be seen. In addition, the woman in Zheng Yan took the initiative to invite her sweetheart to the Weihe River to enjoy the beautiful scenery. She is generous and natural, and there is no shyness and affectation between her words and manners. She is sunny and cheerful.
The reason why women with such an open mind appear in the Book of Songs is that the era of the Book of Songs is the period when China evolved from a slave society to a feudal society. This is an era of relatively open and free thinking and simple folk customs, especially under the condition of the collapse of the Western Zhou Dynasty, those traditional and primitive folk customs began to recover. Under this special historical and cultural condition, women's subjective consciousness was greatly enhanced at that time. Therefore, they are not closed and conservative, and dare to express their desire for life and youth.
Innocent, lively and enthusiastic female images
Speaking of innocence and liveliness, people can't help but think of the quiet girl in The Quiet Girl. "Jing female its shu, I am in a corner. You are embarrassed that love is not present. " Beautiful and virtuous Jingnv made an appointment to meet her sweetheart in the corner of the city, but lively and naughty, she deliberately arrived early and hid, making the spoony teenager wait anxiously and "scratch". The kind Jingnv finally couldn't bear to hide when she saw this scene. "A quiet woman is a good girl, and I have the final say." She suddenly appeared in front of her lover and gave him a poke. How naive and lively! Look again, the eldest girl of Zizhong family left her needlework and went dancing downtown with her boyfriend. "If you don't do it, the city will." He also gave "holding pepper" to his beloved. The woman in Qin Yanli saw the man and gave him peony.
Due to the gradual recovery of people's customs, women's sense of autonomy has been greatly enhanced. In order to pursue the happiness of their own lives, they are more aggressive in love. They enthusiastically pursue the happiness of love and enjoy the sweetness of love with the unique innocence of girls.
Implicit, deep and gentle female images
Emotionally, women have always suffered more than men, so not all women can be as free and easy as the two women mentioned above. There must be naturally introverted women. They love to bury their truest and most sincere feelings in their hearts. Shyness and reserve make them afraid to show their love directly and confess to their sweetheart, but just bear it silently in their hearts.
For example, "Feng Wang Carriage" "Don't you think? Afraid of children. " -"Don't I miss you? ! No, I'm afraid you don't like me, so you dare not confess. " A reserved woman is afraid of being hurt emotionally and being rejected, so she flinches in front of love. Coincidentally, the woman in "East Gate of Zheng Feng" loves the man next door, but is afraid to approach him actively, so she has the feeling that "her room is near and she is far away", which makes her anxious for love. "Don't you think? Small complaints that the child is not mine also arise in my heart. Even though they have won the love of men, and this love is so hot that they will not take the initiative to find a man to solve their homesickness, but will only whisper in their hearts that men don't come to see them. A few words, but the girl's deep and reserved performance incisively and vividly. This reserved woman is like this. Even if she falls in love with a man at first sight, she will say something to keep her distance, which is completely contrary to her inner anxiety. She must be lovesick.
Happy, happy and successful female images
When it comes to success, people can't help thinking of the lady in the pool. According to legend, my wife missed the death of the motherland and could not be saved. She went to Cao's house to offer condolences and advice. She was banned by Dr. Xu when she went, and her poems can be called the earliest patriotic poetess in China. This poem highlights the image of a heroine whose family cares about the country and hates it. In the process of dealing with the contradiction between feudal etiquette and visiting relatives and serving the country, she fully demonstrated her far-sighted and patriotic style of combining rigidity with softness. According to Zuo Zhuan, this poem by Mrs. Xu Mu inspired the people of China to unite and resist foreign invasion, and it was appreciated by Qi Huangong. In addition to Mrs. Xu Mu, who has a successful career, many women have succeeded in love and marriage and lived a happy life. For example, "Wang Fengshan has hemp" and "If there is hemp in the mountain, you must raise a son." He kept the child and gave it to him. There is wheat in the mountains, so he stays in the country. He stayed in the country to eat. Peter's son Li is on the mountain. I admire Mei for the son he left behind. "Described in detail the process of a woman's engagement with her lover. Through clever management, pure love finally came to fruition. For another example, the men and women in Yuanyang, after a sweet love, are enjoying the blessings of all, and will soon enter the marriage hall and will accompany them forever like Yuanyang.
They are full of courage and self-confidence, bravely pursue love and career, and succeed. The happiness gained through their own efforts should be sweeter to them.
Female images of timidity, hesitation and pain
Since human beings entered the male-dominated society, they began to take men as the center. Women are in a subordinate position and have no independent right to control property. They are just tools for productive labor and are bound by many cruel rituals. Therefore, all the women in The Book of Songs can't be happy, and many of them are timid, hesitant and resentful.
For example, the woman in Taifeng Gu Feng is such a typical abandoned idiot image. A woman and a man in Gu Feng fell in love and got married. They worked hard. But when life was a little better, the man had another love and abandoned her. On the night when the man got married, she was forced to leave home. At this time, she bitterly complained that her husband only cared about making fun of his new lover and disdained being with himself. When she left home, the man didn't even bother to see her off. She can only recall the past sadly, "I'd love to." Everyone has mourning and wants. "At the same time, she told her new wife," Don't let me die, don't let me lose weight. "At the last moment when she stepped out of the house, she didn't forget to tell the ungrateful man," I saved it for a purpose and to keep out the cold. The banquet is new, and I am anti-poor. Moreover, I said, "I don't miss the past, and I'm tired of it", imagining that men can miss the past and change their minds. It can be seen that this woman is kind, virtuous and affectionate, but at the same time she is too weak and lingering. Besides the pain of being abandoned, the women in The Book of Songs also have the pain of wanting to love but not daring to love. For example, the woman in Zheng Feng General Zhong Ziqi likes Zhong Ziqi, but because of the cruelty of ethics, when Zhong Ziqi came over the wall to see her, she was afraid to go near him. I love you very much, but I dare not love you for fear that my parents and brothers will scold me. Afraid of others gossiping ... women's hearts are tortured, and it is difficult for their families and lovers to have the best of both worlds. In order not to delay the happiness of their lovers, they can only choose to decline painfully. A smart and kind girl, I feel sorry for her.
Brave, infatuated and loyal female images
Where there is oppression, there is resistance. In the feudal ethical code era, women were inevitably oppressed everywhere, including politics, economy, life and even feelings, so a large number of brave and infatuated women appeared. They are obsessed with family ties and love and resolutely resist the marriage imposed on them.
Look at the woman in Zhao Nanxing Road. Although the overbearing man threatened to go to court and force her to marry him, she also firmly said, "Who said that women are homeless? Why are you suing me quickly? Although I am going to sue, I am not a woman! " She is not afraid of * * *, not afraid of public opinion, and resolutely rejected the unreasonable proposal of the man she doesn't love. It shows her self-esteem, self-reliance, and her efforts to maintain the dignity of personality and the firmness of love. The novel White Boat describes a girl who wants to be independent in marriage. She cried to her mother in heaven, "Mother is the only heaven!" " For the sake of sincere love, she is not afraid of her parents' life and death, and will never change her opinion. Don't forgive people! "Although her voice is weak, this rebellious spirit is not weak, which guides later generations of women to keep fighting on the road of pursuing love freedom. The women in The Wind are braver. "The wind in the east, don't dare to refer to. Women are wired, away from their parents and brothers. Face west and worship the rain. Women are wired, away from their parents and brothers. If you are alone, you will be pregnant with marriage. I don't believe it, I don't know my life! "In pursuit of happiness, she ran away with the right person without hesitation, regardless of the accusations and sarcasm of the world, and stubbornly struggled with feudal ritual making. As a woman thousands of years ago, she dared to pursue freedom of marriage and had to be admired. Although the woman in Feng Wei's Self-protection was abandoned, she dared to face the reality and made the decision that it was too late to think about it, which was also a kind of courage.
Through these female images, we can see the real life state of ancient women. They have low status, no independent property rights and no right to participate in politics. They are just regarded as machines for labor and childbirth, and they are completely victims of this male chauvinism. Under this kind of oppression, some women obeyed, only to submit to humiliation; While others bravely stand up and resist, they may encounter great resistance, but at least they have the hope of freedom.
The Book of Songs is in a special transitional era, and it is precisely because of this that such colorful female images appear in its chapters. Through these images, we can see the process of ancient women from freedom to oppression, which makes the Book of Songs more historic, and also makes the characteristics of these images better shine the light of the national character of the Chinese nation for 5,000 years, reflecting the brilliant social outlook at that time.
