Characteristics of Yuefu folk songs in Southern Dynasties. . .

1, the content is narrow, mostly love songs.

2. Use puns.

3, the system is small, mostly five words and four sentences.

Yuefu folk songs in the Han Dynasty reflect sharp social contradictions, while Yuefu folk songs in the Northern Dynasty show a broad social life, while Yuefu folk songs in the Southern Dynasty belong to love songs sung by women in all likelihood.

This is naturally not because there were no complaints in the society at that time, but because the purpose of searching and recording folk songs was to satisfy the entertainment of the upper rulers, so the searchers would inevitably reject works that were incompatible with this purpose.

Most of these love songs show the feelings of men and women that do not conform to feudal ethics, that is, the love between formal spouses. They appeared in public in large numbers, which was the result of the relative weakening of feudal ethics control since Wei and Jin Dynasties.

Extended data:

Yuefu folk songs in the Southern Dynasties originated from Chen. Today there are over 500 songs. Many of them are Qing Dynasty songs in Guo Maoqian's Yuefu Poetry Collection, and a few are miscellaneous songs and ballads. Among them, there are more than 300 "Wu Ge" and more than 0/00 "Opera".

The style is fresh and lively, which not only reproduces the beauty of natural scenery in the south, but also shows the romantic feelings of women in the Southern Dynasties. The language is fresh and beautiful, and puns are often used, which comes from the unique intelligence of southern women. The line system is five words and four sentences, and the language is short and affectionate.
