Since ancient times, the Japanese have been very fond of poets such as Li Bai and Du Fu, and even exaggerated that they will imitate the scenes described in poems as their daily habits.
Among these poets, Bai Juyi is the most popular, so the Japanese like Bai Juyi because of his many poems? Or is Bai Juyi's poem easy to understand?
To understand the reasons, we must analyze the unique characteristics of Bai Juyi's poems and the Japanese aesthetic taste.
In the tenth year of Yuanhe, Bai Juyi wrote a letter to a friend, nine books and Yuanhe. In this letter, Bai Juyi divides his poems into four categories: satirical poems, leisurely poems, sentimental poems and miscellaneous poems. Most people like Bai Juyi because of his satirical poems, such as worrying about the country and the people, which we absorbed in the text.
However, Japan's understanding of Bai Juyi's poems is quite different from ours. They prefer leisure poems in Bai Juyi's artistic conception to allegorical poems.
What is the aesthetic mood of the Japanese? Sad? .
Sad? This word appeared in the Edo period and was put forward by Xuan Changxian, a Japanese master of Chinese studies at that time. Sad? In Japanese, it is an exclamation, which is an absolutely subjective feeling. My heart is bright, and night is also day. ? Sad? The difference is that this seems to require an objective reality? Things? As a projection, you need to feel it with your heart. ? Sad? It is a literary aesthetic and a life accomplishment.
Same full? Sad? Spiritual Japanese, they don't like Bai Juyi's allegorical poems, because politics contains interests, is secular, and doesn't belong to the beauty of mourning, so they can't let the Japanese enjoy it spiritually.
Bai Juyi's leisurely poems have a different aesthetic for the Japanese.
Bai Juyi's early career was bumpy, because he could not realize his hopes, so most of his poems at this time were mainly allegorical. However, after Zuo moved to Jiangzhou, the poetic style changed, and he converged his early sharpness and turned to nature and inner peace. It is this leisurely and sentimental poem that aroused the Japanese aesthetic taste.
Japanese intellectuals in Heian period praised Bai Juyi's attitude towards life, and his understanding of life was the ideal realm pursued by the Japanese.
The poems written by this kind of life sentiment are full of leisure, nature and emotional appeal, which are very in line with the Japanese? Know the sorrow of things? Bai Juyi's aesthetic realm makes the Japanese so intoxicated with Bai Juyi's poems.
The Japanese have always admired Bai Juyi, which is not only loved by folk scholars, but also by emperors.
There are records in Japanese ancient books about Emperor Xie's love for Bai Juyi. For example, he hid Bai's works in a secret room as a pillow secret. For example, when he was in office, he specially set up an assistant reader of Bai Juyi's poems, and Bai Juyi's poems were the daily course of the emperor.
The ancient books also recorded a regular story between the doddering emperor and the Xiao Ye emperor:
In the riverside of Bai Juyi? Close the cupboard and smell the drums in the morning and evening, and go upstairs to see the ships? , Emei emperor will? Empty? Change this word to? Remote? Then give it to Xiao Ye Huang for appreciation. After reading it, will Xiao Ye immediately? Remote? Change this word to? Empty? Emei emperor suddenly changed color and said:
This sentence is also happy, try you, it is also empty. ?
Later, Chang Di and Bai Juyi were both fans, and Chang Di even confessed: The love of my life, 70 volumes of white essays. ?
(Emperor)
In such a fanatical environment, not only the emperors loved Bai Juyi's poems, but also the whole Japanese aristocratic upper class respected Bai Juyi? God? They learn, understand, read and taste Bai Juyi's poems. This trend has become a symbol of elegance and status. If any noble can't write a poem or two, or can't taste the artistic conception of Bai Juyi's poems, then these people will be looked down upon by other nobles, and even worse, they will be left out by the emperor.
Among these loyal fans, two women have arrived? Idiot? The point is.
Shao Qing Yan Na, one of the 36 immortals in medieval Japan, is the author of Pillow Grass. What is her nickname? Cao An? Is it Bai Juyi's? Lanzhou province flower account, Lushan grass temple? .
After a heavy snow, the royal family asked? What do you think of censer peak snow? ?
After listening to the speech, Shao Qing lifted the curtains to see the scenery. This kind of performance art comes from Bai Juyi? Love the temple to listen to the bell pillow, incense burner to watch the curtain? . Even her behavior has been integrated into Bai Juyi's poems, which shows her admiration for Bai Juyi.
Murasaki tomobu? Three talented women in peacetime? One, although not in harmony with Qing Shao, is also a fanatic admirer of Bai Juyi. In his masterpiece Tale of Genji, he quoted more than 100 poems by Bai Juyi. More than that, the lecture banquet of Bai Juyi's new Yuefu set up by Murasaki's department was the earliest Japanese forum of Bai Juyi's Yuefu.
Does Bai Juyi know that he is so popular in Japan?
I think he might know. In five years in Huichang, Bai Juyi wrote in "Bai Wen Ji":
There are five books in the collection, which were handed down by people from Japan, Silla and Beijing. There is no record here?
Thus, Bai Juyi should know that he is very popular overseas. The Japanese court's love for Bai Juyi later influenced the people. Ordinary intellectuals have also joined Bai Juyi's fan group, and even a community specializing in his poems has emerged.
