Appreciation of ancient poetry How to appreciate the language of ancient poetry

The appreciation of poetic language can start from three aspects: language content, language style and expression effect. According to the view of poetry connoisseurs, we should pay attention to "the beauty of expression, the beauty of language characteristics and the beauty of expression effect".

I. Language content

(1) From the content, poetic language can be divided into: image language, emotional language, symbolic language and allusion language.

1. Image language (words): pine, bamboo, plum, chrysanthemum and other things are endowed with specific symbolic meanings, symbolizing people's noble character, and poets often use them to express some thoughts and feelings. For example, Lu You's "Bu Operator" takes Mei as a metaphor, which shows his character of not interacting with people who are vying for favor and inviting flattery, the flattery of Ayu, and his clank and pride that he is not afraid of slander and self-control. Other common images, such as peach blossom symbolizing beauty and bird symbolizing freedom.
