There are not many poems in The Book of Songs that can determine the specific writing age. Generally speaking, Fu and Ya came into being earlier, basically in the Western Zhou Dynasty. The national wind was produced in the early and middle spring and autumn period, except for Fufeng and Ernan. As far as the nature of poetry is concerned, "elegance" and "ode" are basically music songs written for specific purposes and used in specific occasions, while "national style" is mostly folk songs. It is only a part of Xiaoya, similar to the national style. But it must be pointed out that the "folk songs" we are talking about here are just a general term; Its characteristics are just the opposite of the above-mentioned "elegance" and "ode". It is an ordinary lyric song created by an unknown author and circulated in society. The identity of most folk song writers is not easy to explore. If the identity of the narrator in the poem is regarded as the identity of the author, it includes not only laborers and soldiers, but also a considerable number of people belonging to the "scholar" and "scholar" classes. At that time, "scholar" belonged to the lowest nobility, and "scholar" was a general term for nobility. In addition, there are many unidentified people. Therefore, it can only be roughly said that this kind of folk song is a kind of social mass work. Because of the different nature of poetry, the content of its description is also different. Below, we choose several important types to illustrate.
